Will past XP go towards Class Ranks? Like, I've whored up Scout even though I hit 10 long ago, so will I pop into the game and shoot up ranks because of all of the XP I earned before?

Every time they raised the level cap in BF it worked like this. I'd rather see that bar creep up over time anyway.

Well these seems as good a time to start playing again. Just need a new headset. I'm interested in seeing how my SSD and now comical amount of ram will change things. I got a 16gb kit, execpted my 8gb one to not work together, and low and behold it does and now I have 24gb of ram.

It's not actually retroactive. It shows your retroactive XP in the menu due to  at the moment, the in-game spawn menu class shows the "right" level.

It's gonna be pretty unfair if they set class 20 on coming weapons for new players. They'll probably max out at class rank 15 or even less. Edit: then again, this is EA and they do sell shortcut kits lmao

brief gun chat: so when game was coming out, they promised 20 DLC weapons. grenade xbow + 9 in upcoming DLC puts us half way there. will the 3rd/4th dlcs be map only? maybe some vehicles?

I imagine their end game goal on the freemium front is a certain amount of free maps and weapons. Sort of like 5 maps for each faction pairing outside paid DLC. We really need more Austrian and Italian, American and German and Ottoman British maps soon just so they can put more oomph in Operations. Also, that loving bug when you revived and your primary weapon doesn't fire until you do a quick switch is still there!

It'd be interesting if they added a DLC that had just oddball maps and factions, like the fight for Germany's Chinese colonies at the very start of the war where joint Japanese and British/Sikh forces attacked or some of the African combat. I wouldn't mind seeing the Arabs as a faction on a map or two, especially since voice acting aside it seemed like they had all the assets for it during that final mission of the Lawrence campaign.

I wouldn't say no, we've got their clothing and the ANZAC stuff taking up space on our HD for single player so I do hope they plan to roll them out as some form of multiplayer assets in the future. I'm still hoping for a good old school 1942 Naval/Aeroplane themed DLC.

They screwed up the animation on the Selbstadler 1906. It was very gratifying watching the reload even if it was only 5 shot.

Can someone give a trip report on how the changes affect the automatico trench? It was my go to and I'd hate to see it suck now.

Symthic forums are saying they nurfed the Storm not the Trench. Trench was a typo in the patch notes.

Bad medics aside, you don't truly understand how bad supports are in this game until you play as the Tank Hunter on Operations.

I had a game the other night where as tank hunter on Fao Fortress I had like 3 Supports around me at Obj D and none would drop ammo despite the fact that I just kept requesting it. I finally managed to grab a horse that was standing around and kept resupplying myself. Also I learned that Tank Hunter can do some damage to the Dreadnaught but its kind of a waste of ammo.

So about bad medics and terrible supports. Regular conquest attracts the most garbage players. If you want teamwork play back to basics.

I wish there was a mode that everyone was an elite class, or that there were a ton of them or something. I want to see the whole map ablaze.

Operations will always be flawed until DICE gets it through their thick goddamn skulls to let the AA guns respawn.

Is there some sort of weird tank hack in this game? I watched a whole team pound on a heavy tank guy who was like 41-0 and the thing refused to die for no apparent reason. I counted 89 damage with AT rifle myself, and I see this a lot in games so I have no idea wtf

If a tank is a bit cautious and has even a single dude wrenching it's p much impossible to take down.

It's like the shells vanish when they make contact. I did not get points for damaging either so we might be seeing different things.

I've had this happen once but I've also had the ricochets happen from straight on AT Rockets to the broadside of a Heavy Tank.

Tanks are 'd. I've been in a heavy tank that decided it wanted to fly halfway to heaven then drop down, and I've seen it happen many times from the outside as recently as yesterday. so I wouldn't be shocked if sometimes they just have invulnerable armor.
