Come to mumble, listen to Philman wonder why tanks in a WW1 game are slow.

They are a bit faster in the game that they are IRL and your crew don't pass out half the time inside the British ones due to the engine fumes. Though if they want to bring vehicles in some form into a version of back to basics.....

What exactly is the fastest way to start a multiplayer game on bf 1. If I chose an east coast server manually, it either fails or is stuck on reserving a slot. If I choose quick play is just stays on "matching your skill" forever.

Yesssss This is extremely my poo poo, bring on the rare experimental weapons and gadgets

You mean rare or experimental weapons other than the hellreigel, selbstlader m1916, selbstlader 1906, huot, m1903 experimental, mp18, Villar perosa, the tissue box tank, mondragon, automatico, and the cei rigotti?

I'm hoping/expecting the Chauchat will finally show up. Seeing as it actually was operational during the war.

I want experimental weapons that never got past the experimental stage because they usually had a catastrophic failure rate. Pray to the RNG gods that your gun doesn't blow up in your hands and fire a lethal amount of shrapnel into your chest!

It would be neat if it had a fully modelled interior but it'll probably be like the current behemoths. I fully expect the A7V to bounce shots from the main gun while the Char is being hit by 12 different rocket guns, field cannons and planes. The average driver will plow straight it into obviously planted mines or get the tank stuck on a rock or trench.

It'll be interesting to see how bad people are with the behemoth tank. The only behemoth with free range of travel is the zeppelin which doesn't have to deal with obstacles. So I imagine anywhere a pubbie can get the tank stuck they will

It's a tank, so if it doesn't drive itself there's pretty much a 50/50 chance that either the driver will push it forward pointlessly and it'll quickly die behind enemy lines or it'll stay as close to the uncap as it can sniping at people 1km away.
|
# ? Jan 21, 2017 12:33 |
TBH, anyone over level, say, 50 or tanker level 5 should be able to kick the driver off a behemoth. Dice hire me.

There are a few people that hog aircraft and tank spawns and seem to have always done that since the release, cause they have multiple service stars in those vehicles but they still suicide rush with tanks, jump out and 'gift' the tanks to the enemy when damaged or just lawn dart with a bomber all day. So chances are, they will kick the only competent lvl 30 driver out of the seat thanks to the lvl 50 + service star collection ability you suggest so they can suicide rush past the enemy line and than abandon ship instead of trying to safe it in some way when things get complicated. Your suggestion only works if those levels and service stars were tied to actual performance and would not be archivable by just grinding all day.

They should just make it so if you wait on the spawn screen for too long it auto spawns you in your team's uncap. Make it like half the respawn time on a vehicle and give them a cool down on the kill self button so they can't take an auto death to go back to the respawn screen.

Feindfeuer posted:Your suggestion only works if those levels and service stars were tied to actual performance and would not be archivable by just grinding all day. There are no meaningful tracked stats. An SMG assault can inflate spm or kdr playing operations nonstop. 100 service star vehicle degenerates almost always have more flags defended than captured because they lob shells from 150m away or farm infantry inside a plane. The game does not have statistics like % time inside a capture zone, average flags captured per match, average class actions per match or deaths within <30m of an objective. Stats like squad orders completion % as leader and order completion % as a squadmate in conjunction with above mentioned stats would let you distinguish between a player that consistently sets and follows objectives and one that chases kills somewhere else when not leader. Not going to happen, in other words! Lazyfire posted:They should just make it so if you wait on the spawn screen for too long it auto spawns you in your team's uncap. Make it like half the respawn time on a vehicle and give them a cool down on the kill self button so they can't take an auto death to go back to the respawn screen. Autospawn after one minute into the team uncap, each player has a timer equivalent to the vehicle respawn timer preventing them from being a driver again (boats naturally excluded) that only ticks down while alive. Replace all instances of emergency repair with tread/wing repair respectively and statwipe players above 35% time spent inside vehicles to see some real telemetry data on player tendencies.

Carbines should be all-kit weapons, honestly.

In Battlefield 3 there was some English tanksperg, who pretty bad-to-mediocre in a tank but somehow had a designated fan squad that would spawn in on the other side that would spawn in that team's tanks and drive them over to their internet celebrity, so that only the tanksperg had armor on their team.

As tanks sitting completely idle so the LB sorry streamer can fly around untouched, for example.

Hmm yes, this awkward boxy armored vehicle is perfect for assaulting the mountain and rock strew trenchlines of Monte Grappa Point B and D alone. ONWARD!

Whenever I play Grappa at least one person tries to take a heavy tank up the mountain. Sometimes you have to because the other team gave up on going after C and you have no viable targets, but most of the time you have people trying to rush up the mountain right off the bat.

I feel the light tank and artillery truck are great for mountain exploits with that map. The heavier tanks which you crew is a crapshoot because that terrain is the worst when you have a driver who doesn't understand the firing angles of the guns and insists on sprinting rapidly fast through every bit of cover. If you have a good driver who knows his poo poo however you can have a great time with canister shot.

I'm getting better and better as a Pilot and now I'm decent enough to land some kills in a dogfight and bomb a couple dudes, but god drat it sucks when someone on the opposite team is down to just sit on an AA gun the whole loving game and your team won't try and take them out. Also, gently caress those large guns on Monte Grappa. Actually, just gently caress Monte Grappa altogether. That map sucks.

Moon Grope, Amiens and Inexplicable Hallway Deaths (BB) are the only good maps.

Manga Rapper is a great map, but because of the narrowness it's the worst place to be if the skyspergs are strong and the AA weak.
