I don't like the hero system because I literally only play angel, since there's no other way to give yourself armor between every engagement aside from wasting your gadget slot on the armor plate. A squirrel suit or sentry gun would be nice, but I feel like that 20 points of armor is the deciding factor so often when I can't avoid a fair 1 v 1 infantry shootout.

Armor shouldn't straight up exist in Battlefield. Does Casper's drone do anything against insertion beacons? Like I hope it at least jams it for 5 seconds but like most else, there's zero feedback on what's happening.

Maybe I'm an outlier, but I actually like 64p conquest better. I don't feel like I'm facing insurmountable waves of dudes at nearly all times.

Angel and Sundance are the OP specialists, I think. With the wingsuit, Sundance would still be a solid pick even without her extra grenades, which could probably be used to buff a weaker specialist like Dozer maybe. Angel getting the loadout crate is honestly enough. Unlimited gadget ammo, the ability to switch loadouts on the fly, and crushing snipers on your own team is plenty for one specialist. He would be a great engineer. That he is a medic for non-squaddies and rezzes with 20 armor is almost too much.

Mega Comrade posted:I enjoy the specialists gadgets. It absolutely does. Once you are below 50% ammo, you see the icon above the heads of teammates who have an ammo box. Same for when you are below 50% hp and there are people nearby with a medkit. I am 95% sure that you also see people who need ammo / health if you have the respective crate because they have the same icon but it's flashing over their head.

Jeff Fatwood posted:I mean I play Battlefield too but not because "it has a class system". It still has big open maps, combined arms warfare and whatever else people think is a "Battlefield" experience. It's just different than before but it's easily still Battlefield just like the games before it and it still does a lot differently than other games do. This is almost exactly how I feel. The specialists are kinda lame, but in the grand scheme of things they don't really bother me that much. It's the lack of maps (portal maps don't count, I bought 2042 to play 2042) and missing features/ quality of life regressions from BF1 & BF5 that annoy me. Even after all that, it's still Battlefield. That's what the game has going for it - there is no other game like BF.

People who could use ammo have a white outline when you switch to Angel's gadget; same with Falk when you switch to the healing gun.

I like to play as Falck with ammo boxes and just play resupply medic. It's a shame that heals and resupplies only give a paltry 5XP. Also weirdly, the ammo box doesn't seem to resupply underslung grenades for some reason unless I'm not waiting around long enough. I feel like it should resupply them at the rate of regular grenades.

I'm guessing you need the ammo crate, not pouch, for the grenades. And at a crate, you have to pull open the menu on it and it should fill all your explody poo poo up. Or at least that's what it does for my M5s anyway.

comedyblissoption posted:using the specialist abilities well can be worth much more than 20 points of armor (e.g. seeing people through walls or smoke with boris or paik, putting up cover to save yourself almost instantly as irish, getting high ground + ads speed as mackay) Yeah, ran up against someone that was using Rao super effectively to keep my transport chopper from murdering infantry at a point, someone else on their team was trying to AA at the same time forcing me to make a somewhat hasty retreat and drop troops off from a bit of a distance/cover. I should try some over the other support specialists, since they can offer a lot to the the team. Boris would probably be a good fit since I like to defend, losing the rez/heal will suck but I'm sure I can find a niche. Mostly have bounced off the so-called assault specialists since they seem much more geared towards lone-wolf/less team oriented play styles than I care for.

well a huge problem is there's no voice so squads are naturally not going to coordinate grappling or wingsuiting onto a high point/flank can provide tremendous squad/team utility especially if you beacon it

boris can be used offensively place his turret safely from behind cover or from inside a smoke and get really unfair dueling advantages from wallhacking people if your turret is getting smashed and you want it back before 30s you can grab it and place it back down at full health again

the most frustrating thing about boris (and irish) is by far needing a very level surface and glitches with your gadget just deciding to gently caress off

I have more time in Boris than any other specialist. Yes, it's frustrating when the enemy instantly pops your sentry gun, but it doesn't seem to happen all that often. I find that hostiles ignore my sentry gun as often as not, to their detriment. If you're trying to use the turret as a spotter in open areas, drop it in or near concealing cover such as trees, or between large pieces of cover that conceal it from attack your flank while still getting as wide a FOV of the target area as you can. Use it in combination with proximity grenades; prox grenades seem to help the turret lock on (and thus reveal enemies through the wallhack) faster. In confined areas, I often drop the turret whenever I'm about to go around a corner that I'm not sure is clear. If the turret dies, it's time to melt back and let someone with flanking capabilities deal with that problem. (HIghlight the problem with map markers and prox grenade if you have one.) comedyblissoption posted:boris can be used offensively smoke is very strong advice too yes i do find that if i pick up a damaged turret it doesn't always seem to regen to full health, at least not instantly (and often not at all)

I find that hostiles ignore my sentry gun as often as not, to their detriment. The gun pops itself, and/or refuses to engage an enemy who walks right past it and then looks at it in confusion, incredibly often. To be very clear: It's often not actually taking damage, it just explodes on its own in the middle of clear terrain with no enemies around.

The rockets in this game are so slow and the vehicles are so fast. I used to be able to land some awesome rpg shots against jeeps in BF5 but now if they decide to shimmy a little they can just casually dodge my rocket.
