its fun when you are on a stacked team but the TTK is so low that if your team sucks youre basically dying non-stop

It isn't your team that sucks if you're dying non-stop in a Battlefield game hth

Playing enforcer and being forced to use shotguns is the worst, it would help if I didn't feel like the 870 was terrible. Just gonna do like one of the goon in mumbler said and just play other classes until I'm able to buy decent guns.

Apart from that I had fun last night despite our many losses, hotwire is way too much fun. I can't stop driving on ramps even though I know I'll probably die once I do the jump.

The only bug that I've noticed so far is some weird flickering on Dust Bowl

I played a match last night that felt like a laggy, buggy, old-school-BF4 piece of poo poo, but that was probably because there was one dude with 999 ping on the server.

I'm kinda bummed they took away the lag compensation slider from the beta. I think it's just a toggle now, or maybe I'm an idiot and can't find it.

Use the SA-58 OSW and Scar-H, then. They're both pretty great.

Anyone unlock the minigun and/or M3M for the transport chopper yet? Wondering if either are worth the money.

Its only worth it if someone in the chopper knows how to use it. Feels like more of a sidegrade on the dps output side.

I'm guessing the minigun is better for infantry and the M3M for vehicles? But that would make sense, which is a silly thing to expect in a Battlefield game even if :dice: didn't actually make this one.

In beta it was mostly range tradeoff.

In the beta unless your pilot was a super-steady grenade-magnet hitting peds with the default HMG was a complete crapshoot

Yeah, but he needs $26k to unlock one of those, which is why he said he was going to play other classes first.

Spawning into the middle of a firefight and expecting to live would indeed constitute "playing Battlefield wrong."

if not solely for the fact that it reviews a battlefield game without mentioning the multiplayer once.

Gives it a 6/10 still doesn't review multiplayer.

Edit: Also throws a fit and compares it to "current political situations involving police"

Great, Hardline has the same stupid memory leak that plagued BF 4 for most of its lifetime.

This should have been a 19 dollar DLC add on for BF4 without the single player campaign.

Definitely waiting for a sale - but reviews so far are pretty horrible as well as quite a few user reviews.

I think if there's one thing people who are wondering about HL can take away it is this: it's definitely a different game. It feels different from BF4. There's a greater mechanical shift from BF4 to Hardline than there was from BF3 to BF4. It plays very differently, and offers a different experience. It's a little more shooty and a little less tanky, a little more fast-paced but a little less kinda grandiose. It's not just some BF4 mod, and anyone with any experience whatsoever with multiplayer shooters should agree if they've played it.

Whether or not it's justifiably a $60 game or whether or not it's actually good are separate issues, but the game is not just some shallow BF4 repackaging, definitely.

Still waiting on my key from shady seller G2A. They're going by the Euro's release date of the 19th.
From what I remember, it's more like BF2: Special Forces, but no tanks. The gadgets are rad and stupid. The new game modes are fun.. Hotwire in particular, but I'm positive that they're going to be the first to dry up with playerbase and left with mostly conquest.
