That is exactly when I experienced it happen, I was driving from F out there and in the middle of that huge depression I was suddenly on foot. Limpet Mines are the best, bringing buildings down on the heads of people and taking the floor/roof out from underneath them is so much fun. It takes too many of them to kill a tank imo but it never stops me from trying. I soloed one of those bigger ones that seat six one time, running around dropping ammo packs and throwing limpet mines on it.

Went 28-10 on St. Quentin Scar with the arty truck. The hype is real. Just sit back on a hill looking down into the village and blow up all the mans. Got a similar score on Amiens, with the Gewehr 95, just by staying in the line of houses running along train tracks between the two bridges. Incendiary trips on the doors, and shoot all the mans from the windows. Also got my first collatoral kill with a double headshot on one bullet. That was pretty sweet. I can't believe a shooter exists where sometimes, just sometimes, I can be loving awesome. Oh and on FAO, I came *this close* to destroying a tank with a torpedo, which is my new goal in life. Spunked my fish too early and was reloading when I saw the landship in the ford between B and C. I did get to kill a swimmer with a torp on my next pass, not sure if the fish hit him, or if it hit the bank and the explosion killed him, but whatever I still torpedoed a man to death and life is good. I'm gonna gently caress up a tank with a torp if it is the last thing I do though, I have a dream. This game is pretty good. Edit: Ineffiable, you know I love you man, but that experimental for the scout class is hot garbage. I would be better off throwing rocks at people, it does so little damage. The medic sweeper gun is loving godly though. I tried that briefly, and while I'm not 100% sold on that sights it kills things good.

I'm starting to dislike the "ask for an order, get made leader" I'm don't want to be leader every single match. I literally don't have time to stop shooting the enemy and give orders. Thats sounds dumb, because it takes like 2 seconds to give and order, but thats always when the single enemy walks right up to us and wipes my whole squad and takes back the point we just capped. All because I aimed up at the flag to say defend it.

If you're the squad leader and try to spot while you're looking in the direction of a point you'll automatically order your squad to attack that point.

Not because its bugged, but because I'm just not good at those things. Attack order are easy. Defense orders are the one that always gently caress me up cause I end up looking almost straight up to spot the flag. God knows everyone's allergic to defense. But I'm just venting. Gonna try to get a headset soon.

The trick for issuing orders with the rose is to let go of RB/R1 while continuing to hold the analog stick in place on the objective you've selected. If you let go of the stick at the same time the order doesn't get issued.

Experimental is all about going in close and getting the jump on someone. It fires extremely quick, and apparently it's just gonna get more accurate tomorrow. Combine it with scout flares so you can get in close, and get an idea of where the enemy is. Works really well in urban settings. Like if you play on Sinai, use a regulaer sniper for outside, but if you're going to stay inside the city, experimental is the way to go. If you snipe using it, you're gonna have a bad time, or use k bullets which you only get 6 bullets of. played with some goons tonight, was a lot of fun. The highlight was empire's edge where we had almost the entire squad driving either a heavy tank or arty truck. We were coordinated as gently caress then. My sad storuy of the night is being killed by someone who has 57 medals in the mondragon. Game hasn't been out two months and this dude has 6k kills with one weapon?

Yeah, I understand gow it's supposed to work, but I basically haven't ever used radial menus in any games, and the muscle memory isn't there. I have the same problem I overwatch. Even when I try real careful, It issues the wrong order or social. Like 75% of my thank yous are go go gos.

Snak posted:I'm starting to dislike the "ask for an order, get made leader" If I'm leader and otherwise engaged, I'll just set some back-cap order like, I'm trying to blow up this loving tank lord but you guys try and take D, because that's where I'm going when I'm finished here. Yeah probably not the best leader, but it's useful to set an objective that doesn't involve throwing yourself into the unending meat grinder at the central point, and maybe take back the objective next to our spawn that was just capped by probably a solo pilot.

Limpets and ammo pouches. POUCHES. You don't have to stick limpets to metal. You can just throw it towards a wall. You can use it to LEVEL houses. Fast. While you're running around the map you should be tossing your limpet at some destructible thing and then throwing yourself an ammo pouch. You'll be able to limpet again in something like 8 seconds.

Yeah, I'm kind of torn on that. Some of the worst squad leaders I've had were snipers, who would always keep an order up to avoid relinquishing leadership, but would just be camping random places and never playing the objective.

Holy loving poo poo. Buggest turnaround I've seen. We're winning, 700 to 600, they get their armored train in Sinai Desert. They cap all points and never take one back. Destroy their train pretty quickly even, but never take back a point. At 700 when they get the train, 768 when we lose.

Was having a rather lovely evening of Conquest which I usually enjoy. Got all rage-quitty then went for domination. Realized my choice of assault was stupid because no vehicles, so switched to medic. Amazing times ensued! Nobody revives on Domination. I was tear-assing about with my hypodermic and single shot rifle and was killing it. Great to have a positive change of pace for play style. 😃

I get that, I'd still rather have my bolt action, and when someone is right up in my face swapping over to the Bodeo to cowboy the poo poo out of them. If I wanted to engage at super close range all the time I wouldn't be picking scout. Gotta say though, I kind of love that there are enough very different guns that we can both love/hate different weapons and everybody gets what they want. Dice did alright.

Playable in the way that yes you can join matches if you have premium. The map seems to be a shut out every match one way or another. With how open every point is it means trying to move around to assults points makes you open to one of the 13 trillion snipers on the opposing team. It's exceptionally sniper friendly. It's like the canal map expect twice as long and half the buildings.

I'm liking the new map. I just quickmatched into Conquest as I always do, put me in a server which was Giant's Shadow 24/7 and played a few rounds from both sides. Fighting in and around the crashed zep is great, very atmospheric and being on a sloping ridgeline it makes an obvious prime objective to contest. If you can take upper and lower flags inside and turtle up, you can absolutely faceroll the opposition who then have to charge uphill over mostly open ground. Tanks leading the charge in are pretty much essential if that happens, but also had some good times with a squad fighting over the outer flags to try and relieve pressure on the central fight. The grenade crossbow is... s'aright I guess. Would rather take mortar or limpet still, but it's a thing. And most important news: the quit button now works, hail hydra. Edit: Here's 8 kills in 40 seconds with the arty truck. https://twitter.com/hongkonghermit/status/808991643273601024 Parkingtigers fucked around with this message at 12:21 on Dec 14, 2016 |

It's no problem poop, we all have real life stuff that comes out. It was hilarious rolling up as your backup and taking out those two guys that were about to pin you down. I'm still a bit iffy on Giants shadow. I think it'll be all about how you play it. It's not a winner of a map so far. It feels a bit more balanced when the fog rolls in and anyone can charge the center. I do agree tank leading charges will be more critical on this map. Call me crazy but were there not as many cars on this map compared to a map like Sinai?

Seems to be plenty of vehicles around, I've been riding in cars loads of times to make a cheeky dash for the outer flags. Had to deal with two enemy heavy tanks pushing the breach into the zep. Dogfighting around the tail of the behemoth spitting out flares. Making mad cavalry charges out towards the swarm of troops racing across an open field. I'm liking it. Definitely better than Suez, even after the improvements. Probably better than Empire's Edge as you don't have such a disintegration of the main central flags and you keep the cover against air raids. You can get some visually epic moments when a dozen of you have no choice but to go storming across an open field to the next set of cover. I'm thinking I may forgo my usual dart farter plane and run a bomber, make some shellholes for the ground pounders.
