Anyone else out there that's sticking to one weapon for the rest of BF1's life cycle?

Good God. You’re completely clueless. Youre saying this ‘evidence’ shows that auto rotation makes you a better player? You truly delusional.

I didn’t deny aim assist can be abused. I denied it’s use as evidence to prove this point of yours:

Smells like BS, there is no reason not to use and abuse auto rotation with infantry variants. You will never, and I repeat, never be able to aim a precise shot as quickly as the auto rotation does

The abuse of aim assist is not what I’m arguing and is completely irrelevant in this case. Your ludicirious insinuation that people should use aim assist IS what I’m arguing. Because auto rotation aim assist makes you worse and this point cannot be denied. Period.

Get a few more chromosomes I don’t think you’re capable of comprehending structural debate.

I personally like to set myself a target of 500 kills for a weapon then move on. I have been doing this for the last couple of battlefields and it’s a good challenge to keep me interested .

I’m currently going through hell using the Russian Trench but I’m determined to reach the 500 kill target. It’s also a shame when I have to stop using a nice gun.

43

I didn’t think any of the sniper rifles were 1 hit kills unless they were a headshot?

44

BF1 is different. There’s a mechanic for Sniper rifles called the sweet spot. For example, the SMLE, shooting someone 40-80 metres away from you anywhere in the body (Except the hands and legs) is a 1 hit kill. The other snipers have different ranges for their sweet spot. The exception is the Gewehr 95, it doesn’t have a sweet spot, but it is the fastest firing of all snipers.

45

Actually, the new update has gotten me out of my shell trying new weapons. I am doing well with some of them too. So hell no I want to use other weapons now and then. But nothing will replace my mains really.

46

Not yet. Not found the perfect weapon for me sigh.Bar is close but the reload time puts me off still waiting Dice give me a perfect automatic weapon which require skill and don’t hamper the user using it.

47

I like trying new weapons, but I usually end up “stuck” with one that works decently well in most situations.

48

Once they add the Mosin Nagant, that’s all I’ll use.

49

Didn’t the French use the Mle. 1903?

50

No, the Mle 1903 is a Belgian made gun adopted by other nations but not by the French army.

Of course he’s going to abuse the aim assist that’s what all the other classes do.

52

People talk about infantry Scouts abusing aim assist like it is the only class that has it enabled.
Medics with SLRs, Assaults with SMGs and especially shotguns, Supports with LMGs; all of them (on console) have aim assist, and all of them can abuse it. I should know, because I used to run Medic a lot.

53

Jesus I watched the footage from the thread, does that even take skill? That’s like super

54

It depends what the future dlc has in store, I really want the fedorov avtomat to be a medic gun, if not I will probably just stick with the m1907 in some form.

55

I change weapons and classes all the time, variety is the spice of life! I do have my favourites of course ie mondragon storm, martini henry, autoloading extended… also been loving the noobimatico storm recently :smiley:

56

aim assist, yeah.

57

I’ll probably stick with the Automatico until the end, I heard that you guys really like getting killed by that :stuck_out_tongue:

When I find a weapon that I love I just can’t stop using it.

BF3 MTAR-21 <3 38,973 kills
BF4 AK5C <3 34,508 kills
BF1 Automatico <3 5,510 kills

Are you dumb?

Relying on auto rotation does make you a worse player, in general, but we are and have been talking since the start about infantry variant rifles specifically here. Did you even watch the clips in that topic? How the fk are you worse without auto rotation with iron sighted bolt action rifles? You are somehow magically worse when a snap-on aim assist that almost resembles an aimbot, is disabled? Excuse me wat?
Let me make this clear: you would never be able to aim precise shots as fast without auto rotation. This is a fact. How hard is this to understand? A player with auto rotation > a player without auto rotation when it comes to infantry variants.

Also, your insults are pointless and have zero thought behind them. You keep calling me clueless when I’m the one with plenty of experience on this subject (pretty much among the few people who didn’t hesitate to shed some light when it comes to auto rotation abusing instead of other people who didn’t want to share their exploit so their crutch wouldn’t be as known), while you have pretty much no experience, as evidenced by how naive you are, actually thinking auto rotation assist abusing makes you perform worse than someone with “true skill”. That’s laughable and shows you clearly have no clue.

59

I mess around with various classes, but last night I got my 75th Mondragon Storm star

Love that gun

60

It’s not the only class that has it enabled, however auto rotation is ideal for infantry variants and shotguns (minus the Slug, as auto rotation only works with iron sights).
You can’t really abuse the aim assist in the same way with a SMG/LMG/SLR as you can with a bolt action rifle, if you get what I’m saying.
