Tanks respawn, of loving course the field pieces should too. This isn't a hard design decision

Delacroix posted:I don't know why dice avoids bringing back good features from previous games but stationary weapons should respawn if destroyed. It shouldn't require reinventing the wheel for age-old problems. It's impressive that grabbing ammunition from teammates has never come back after hardline.

SeanBeansShako posted:It makes no sense because well, unless the structure they are mounted on can be knocked out you can have invincible heavy machine guns like the ones at D. The stationary weapons, for all intentions and purposes, are vehicles with a separate health pool. In previous titles they can be destroyed completely. The HMG emplacements inside D's train carriage should be no different. In BC2 they had full body shields which stopped small arms, were placed in good spots (i.e murder waves of attackers) and they respawned if blown up. Being placed in exposed positions, it's the least dice can do. For everything else like field cannons and static AA, just make the patch of dirt underneath them undeformable like the physical flag on each capture point.

Bohemian Nights posted:that was the easiest way to play an aggressive scout as well- get in that first shot for 98 damage or whatever and then finish them off by slightly grazing them with your pistol Bit late but I made a video of a full round doing this with the M.95 Rifleman and M1911 because i'm 75% sure the lever rifle for the Scout was bugged and had some wierd delay, making it slower than the M95: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7di-O3CEn0k I didn't realise how many of my kills were from the "kill assist counts as kill" poo poo. (Had to remove the audio as well because Shadowplay captured mumble and not my mic so it was just my friend talking to himself. Tried to make a song loop perfectly so it fit the video but turns out its impossible so I had it play twice but it didn't cover the full video. cheers)

Nice video, I think I miss the beta the most for the M.95, such a fun weapon. Assault Recon is a fun class, especially with Flash Flares.

It's a shame we never tried this in Beta with planes with my small circle of goon squad friends. Somewhere, I've got video of that, including riding a light tank on a fighter plane. It's awesome to just ride into combat on a tank and rumor has it that they were going to add some kind of hand hold system.

Monocled Falcon posted:Team deathmatch or Rush. Either one, everybody runs medic, everybody uses aek-971 or m416. Ina game at the end of it's lifespan, I expect everybody to have gravitied to the 'best' options, but it's so unsatisfying. Don't play TDM in a Battlefield game, none of the maps are ever well thought out for them. In Rush, I saw far, far more hill wookies and Supports because KDR. Engineer is where it was at in BF4 anyway, Carbine/DMR, rocket of choice and mines if you're an rear end in a top hat or repair tool if you've got friends/are a team player for some reason. Are they bringing back the perk sets? If I can get more rounds for the AT Rocket Rifle, I'll probably have double the playtime in Assault than any other class, just like in 4. Looks like the 870 reskin is going to be my goto weapon this time rather than the ASVAL too.

My secret shame is that I play battlefield is for the preanimated takedown animations. They just look so cool. Team deathmatch is nice cause I can get tags and still not screw over my team by going negative. Any other goon knifers out there?

As long as you jump on the capture point on Conquest it doesn't matter if you're going 0-20.

There are some hellbender and I at least are willing to sacrifice k/d for that every so satisfying knife kill. We will not discuss Mr side knife, he knows his shame.

The shovel, the cavalry saber, it's all good. I'm frustrated that they took out Claymore Farmer though.

No, it's more that I prefer a close-range, hyper aggressive play-style that doesn't work very well in more traditional game modes. Also I feel really guilty when I get kills defending stuff. Passivity is wrong.

Suppressor, support was all I played the last few days of the beta. its too bad the infin-grenade glitch will be patched out of the final game, because I loved running between D and C throwing out ammo packs like a mad bastard, chucking incendiary nades into every building, and slaughtering folks with that beast of a gun.

I think Supports could be really awesome to combine with one or more aggressive recons in a full squad. Infinite spotting flares should give a huge advantage.

Do ammo packs give back explosives in BF4 or hardline? The ammo crate in BF1 takes time to restock grenades which is more in line with BF3.Monocled Falcon posted:I think Supports could be really awesome to combine with one or more aggressive recons in a full squad. Infinite spotting flares should give a huge advantage. It's a great tactic and with flares and incendiary grenades you can figuratively smoke people out into the open! I would cut out the middleman and use a horse for that however. You can drop ammo and health packs from the saddle like a mobile vending machine. I actually have a video (once I learn how to edit) where I kept a horse inside a house at C for safekeeping.

BF3 had a weird thing where ammo packs liked to give you ammo for explosives that you already had ammo for. If you had two grenades and only ever threw one, you could fling them almost non-stop. Toss the second and boy howdy you're in for a wait.

They definitely gave back explosives in BF4. iirc it was instant for a few months too(like in the BF1 beta), but then they lowered the rate. It was certainly instant or like 2 seconds for the UCAV which lead to much hilarity.

Medic still had the best guns. People just weren't playing it because they assume Assault always has the best guns and theyre probably not good at using semi autos. There wasn't enough people using the assault AT rocket gun for the people playing assault to be playing it for that reason

There wasn't enough people using the assault AT rocket gun for the people playing assault to be playing it for that reason The semi-autos are quite good when you get used to them, perfect for those moments where you run into somebody out of the blue. I do hope in the release game there will be a secondary main weapon though.

Allow medics to get an old time ambulance to drive around in and a bet people would play the class way more. (That was a thing in WW1, right?)
