    Re: Battlefield 1 (PC, PS4, XBOX One)

    Shout out to the homie Mikenoob, dude is one hell of a tank operator. Some fun matches last night for sure. Am super close to having Assault all unlocked and then I really wanna play support and try these guns I have heard great things about from Rez and Bolt.

    I'm off work at 1pm PST today and hoping to have some great sessions today and thru the weekend.

    As for the talk earlier about behemoths, at first I thought the behemoths were corny as hell but I guess at least it adds an extra layer to the conquest formula. It definitely wouldn't make sense (in my opinion of course) for the winning team to get it as that would basically just end the match right there. I had hoped that maybe there was a way to activate it, like an objective the team has to complete, kind of like how some things are activated in MOBAs (or at least in Paragon, only MOBA I play), but I can see how they made the design choice they did. Part of me thinks that getting wrecked is just a part of conquest that happens to everyone. In every BF game I have played there have been matches where my team got destroyed and spawn trapped, and I have also been on the team that dose the spawn trapping. Part of me feels like getting wrecked is just something you gotta deal with and get better from and the devs throwing in a "hold your hand" mechanic is a little weak, but I understand why it is there.

    Honestly the pick-up items bother me more than the behemoths, and I also think it is kind of cheesy that you get so much more health on a horse. The range of that sword swipe is pretty insane, I have seen guys just mow down 7 dudes easily before getting taken out. I also don't like that you can just pick up a weapon and get some pretty insane headshot protection. I am cool with the body being armored but if they are gonna get that headshot protection then the turning view radius and turning speed while using those pickups should be greatly reduced in my opinion.

    I admit that if I am gonna play conquest I need to let go of the "I just want "stick skillz" to matter" approach. Behemoths, vehicles, pick ups, its all part of the conquest package and its awesome. I play most of my games on foot with my class weapons but I get that a lot of people get a lot more out of the other options available in conquest, and there are modes like TDM for when I just want to shoot and be shot at regularly.

    Are most people still sticking with conquest as their only/primary mode of play? Operations seems pretty cool

    I get killed more by snipers than anyone else. I can't hate too much, I mean it's in the game and it isn't cheating. If a dude wants to go climb to the edge of a map and lay prone on the side of a mountain, cool, I guess good for them. Some people do PTFO with Marksmen rifles and they are awesome with those rifles, to those guys I tip my cap.

Multiple times when I've spawned on an occupied flag, not under neutralization, I've been killed within a couple seconds. Other than that, I'm enjoying the game thoroughly.
      I've noticed some hit detection issues and noticed last night that they only seem to occur on Amiens, which also happens to be the one map I hate.

        Really not liking the weapons for the support class. Seems the went back to BF2142 with the LMGs. Unless you are sitting in bipod, you're gonna lose a gunfight with just about any of the assault weapons. I say this selfishly of course.

          Eventually you'll be able to purchase the Madsen Storm. Buy that and use it.
          I literally had 140 supply pouch drops in a game last night. Not a ton of people using the class from what I can tell right now.

            Wow, had I known that I would have switched from COD to BF a heck of a long time ago..

              Good shooter notwithstanding, my schedule makes joining up with OSers challenging, and I only today found out that it has solid SP. I do enjoy capturing and defending objectives with a good team in MP though in prior BF games.

              So, I'm now giving it a rethink.
              why rethink? its just money..YOLO dude

                Okay guys it needs to be said

                The horses need to be nerfed lol

                Yes, the horses. It's hilarious to even say that. Sometimes I'll just run around and slice people up for laughs.

                      In real combat it is about working as a team and following instructions, not who can get the most kills, so why would a game based upon military team tactics be any different?

                      See this is what annoys me the most about online shooting games, people tend to just see it as "lets see who can kill the most" and they don't play towards an objective.

                      So because of that I tend to feel like theres no cohesion and team work and it's just a big deathmatch and that gets old really really fast.

                      Yes, shooting skill DOES matter but only if the person with the skill is working with the team on the objectives.

                      Give me the guy who is average at shooting but works towards the team goals any damned day over the guy who is an ace shooter but just runs around doing his own thing!

                        It absolutely needs to be nerfed. Laughable is a good way to describe it. Even when you get solid shots on the rider it takes way too much to bring him down. Forget about the sword range and horse's armor...

                          Somehow things got to: "if you have a good k/d you don't PTFO" and "if you have a bad k/d you're not good BC this is a shooter".

                          I'm paraphrasing, obviously. Things turn from opinion to defense mode at the drop of a hat around here.

                            It really just depends on the game mode and there's more to it than K/D vs PTFO. You can achieve both.
