How come nobody told me Hardcore mode owns this much. This fixes like all of the problems I have with the base game.

Classic Mode was the best of both worlds but no one runs it in NA anymore.

I've been digging hardcore because it's less twitchy than the normal mode, and it's kind of nice having less crap on the screen.

Players actually miss at range when there are no extra visuals like hit confirm markers or spotting tags. Without minimap, I notice less psychics running in circles shooting people in the back

Concordat posted:My favorite gun in any Battlefield thus far, was the VSS Vintorez in BC2, which stat-wise was that game's G3 with a higher rate of fire, a suppressor, lower recoil, faster reload (if you canceled the animation), and a free scope. I loved how magnum ammo and body armor did nothing to the VSS's already outstanding TTK, it let you bring more C4, ammo or sprint speed instead. The best part about the VSS in BC2 was that it still counted as a sniper rifle. If someone was tagged with it, their soldier would call out sniper and you would know exactly where they were once they break line of sight. With war tapes the VSS was a brutal CQC weapon with wallhacks. It was fairly respectable at range too, just needed tapfiring.

So, I've finally decided to jump into BF4 (only a bit late, heh), and was wondering what some good servers/platoons are? Preferably without people ramming helicopters into buildings all the time.

People are dumb and decide since there is no minimap or 3d spotting they never need to run a silenced weapon and camp A LOT. Using the big map is free kills all day on hardcore. Oh and classic is 100% better than hardcore if you can find a server running it.

That and Classic is so much fun but I think there is only 1 server in NA that is a dedicated Classic server and it's not usually very populated

It is literally hardcore with all the issues fixed. Having 100 health means gun balance remains in place and that is the most important part in a fps.

You people need to learn to love the bipod LMG shooting into a hallway endlessly strategy and stop trying to actually play this video game. Come and join me at the Temple of the 24/7 No Explosives Metro. All are welcome in this Holy Place. All are welcome.

Thinking about it I kind of hope that classic with a tweak or two is the new normal mode. It is a pretty clean skill / gun based game at that point.

The worst servers ban shotguns. There is a conquest large server that prohibits them, which is baffling.

Chronojam posted:The worst servers ban shotguns. There is a conquest large server that prohibits them, which is baffling. Yeah you and kero got them banned on that sever lol. It was on a round where you both had a absurd number of kills. I remember it because it was goon on goon violence. You would hear someone say "wtf who would put a claymore all the gently caress out in the middle of nowhere and kero would just start giggling. But since it was goon vs goon there were actually people blowing up your MAA, so you shotgunned a lot of mans including a very salty admin.

my favourite is pistol only servers that ban the Shorty and the Mare's Leg. Pistol only servers get kind of boring because 95% of the players only ever use the G18

So I found out an easy way to get AA mine kills. And I do mean easy, all you have to do is set an AA mine in a certain place. You know Hangar 21's pod launchers? Turns out the pods are considered air vehicles, which will set off the AA mine, and the AA mine will kill pods and their occupants in one hit. Every so often on that map I would head on up above the hangar onto the roof to get some easy kills on the oblivious snipers up there, and before I left to go do something useful, I would leave an AA mine in the top center. I was expecting to suprise a jet pilot, but instead I killed a sniper trying to access the roof by firing the pod launcher straight up. I haven't tried setting them near the pod launchers at the base of the map, but I expect it would work there as well.

Yes, but they don't go off the instant the pod gets launched like the AA mine does. And they aren't as notoriously difficult to get kills with either.

I can't wait to try this. I have a few AA mine kills, but this sounds hilarious.

Speaking of Final Stand maps after learning that the minigun drone gets its batteries recharged if you land it and pick it up again that thing has become a lot more fun to use. On Hanger 21 or Hammerhead where snipers are just sitting pretty right out in the open it's a blast to send it up, fly it over to a herd of wookies, kill them, and fly it back again - only to send it back a minute later and kill the exact same snipers.

Chronojam posted:Never saw this one before. I'm intrigued. Pretty simple. Grab the drone, get somewhere safe, send it out. When the battery is just about half gone bring it back to where you're hiding and press E to "get out" of it. Pick it up, deploy it again, and it'll have a full battery. The gun on it may be weaker then a PDW at 100 meters but most prone wookies won't notice it so just get right on top of them.
