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

The martini suits my mid range playstyle perfectly ,and i exploit the sweetspot everytime.
I’m just loving the new rib-o-ravioli tho so much for it’s versatility. Assault was too close quarter for my liking,but now it feels more like old bf engineers.

Anyway auto aim raises the general level of players on consoles. Whenever i see pc footage it’s either good aim or ¯_(ツ)_/¯ aim. On consoles everyone is pretty much a good shooter and you really need something more than just aim to prevail.

You started with the insults buddy. You commented on my video and went off about my aim and helping my team. Somehow my original post was taken down but here’s the gist of it:

Real cute bringing in your TDM time spent. guess you didn’t think it through though because I have another angle.

You played 1542 rounds of conquest yet only capped 6.1k flags. Why so low? You hillhump with a scout. It’s pretty much the only class you use.

Maybe you aren’t missing like me but you should take your own advice and PTFO.

I played 445 games of operations (over 3 times less the games you played) and capped 4k flags. As stated before I mainly play defense and flags are much harder to cap when you only have 2-3 points at any given sector.

You have an average of 2 orders completed per game so yes, you are a hillhumper with a 2.5 kpm.

This forum started with the weapons changed to aim assist and ended up with bashing each other how good they r lol. :smiley:

haha they need to take down all your posts altogether, that was gold

Dont waste your breath on these fools. mostly just jealousy mixed with ptfo propaganda.

Jealousy has no bounds. Scrubs can’t shoot nor argue what do you expect.

Once again, look at your stats. You are a terrible player and should stay out of this convo.

No jealousy at all. I’ve told him he’s really good. He started with me, if you don’t believe it scroll up. All i did was post a video and he went off on my stats. All I did was defend myself.

Actually my stats blow yours out of the water:

Please do what the guy says and help your team in other ways (Heal, revive, resupply) than killing because you’re terrible at it. Keep the killing for those of us who are capable. :slight_smile:

Incorrect. When you abuse aim assist it doesnt consistently land a body shot which is needed for the sweet spot to help you. With the SMLE you very often get “enemy hit 90” when you are in the sweet spot range if you abuse aim assist.
As for muzzle velocity, that isn’t too relevant when abusing aim assist. Why would it be relevant, you are spamming 2 buttons lol. The M.95 Infantry is the single best gun in the game to abuse aim assist with, precisely because it doesn’t have a sweet spot and has a quick fire rate and a fast reload. Lots of spamming is exactly what you need when you are abusing auto rotation.
As I said to the other fella, if you don’t know how aim assist works in this game, don’t come challenging someone who is experienced on the subject.

As for your situation, it is unfortunate. I had a similar thing back in BF3, where my best weapon was the M16A3, but in reality I had done like 80% of those kills with the underused A4 variant, but because they shared the kills I had people accusing me of using easymode weapons. Best ways to deal with that:

  1. Get another top weapon, show that you are capable. In your situation you could swap to the carbine variant, which is completely safe from aim assist accusations because aim assist only applies to iron sights, meanwhile it’s pretty much identical in performance to the infantry variant. However with the amount of kills you have this may be unrealistic at this point. Then again you seem to play this game quite a bit so maybe not…?
  2. Don’t give a fk about stats and people’s opinions. This is what I did anyways in regards to the accusations I had for my M16 kills, being a person that could care less about stats in general this was easy for me.
  3. Show evidence. Nothing beats cold hard facts and evidence.

Well let’s see if I can find the cause.

  • Your best weapon is coincidentally the very best weapon to abuse aim assist with which you also happen to have an asinine amount of kills with.
  • You made a topic showing off your kills with said gun. Regardless if it was your intention to brag is irrelevant, it’s right there, the very first thing you see when you click on this topic.
  • You play on a console, hence inherent controller and ability to use auto rotation.
  • You have like 0 kills with anything that isn’t an infantry variant on the scout class.
    These things added up, what did you expect, that you wouldn’t be called out?

Honestly I couldn’t give 2 whether you use auto rotation or not (my first post on this topic was sarcastic if you didn’t catch that), but I am bringing up the subject anyways to spread information about this game’s broken aim assist. I do this in a lot of topics that have even a little bit of relevance to aim assist. Some guy says he likes infantry variants: leave a post calling him out, hope it catches fire. And I must say I succeeded quite well in this case, I took over your topic and now a handful few more people know about the “aim assist problem”.
Up until this point you were playing smart by ignoring me but you had to assert your opinion on aim assist, which backfired anyways because of your lack of knowledge.

LOL!!! The only thing your stats do is blow. https://battlefieldtracker.com/bf1/profile/psn/AllOutWar76 . So how am I terrible at killing with a kd 1 full point higher than yours?

We are not talking about aim assist/auto rotation universally, but in regards to infantry variant scout rifles specifically. How many times do I have to tell you this? Damn people these days are slow.

Yup, you’re absolutely right. It was nice to see people commenting about their service stars though..

I never used it until I had to for the 50 kills assignment which I did yesterday. Man you are so right about this. I thought it was going to take a while but I breezed through it so easy. What are your thoughts on how strong the snap on is with infantry variants of scout rifles? Personally I think AA is needed on consoles but I feel the snap on needs to be toned down quite a bit.

As for SPM, yes it is a stat that doesn’t necessarily show how a good a player is as an individual. Heck, it can be applied to just about any stats:

  • SPM. If you ever play anything else than Operations (and to an extent, CQ), chances are your SPM will be much worse than someone who does. For me personally, my SPM drops hard whenever I play War Pigeons, a game mode that I love to play. I’m not not gonna stop playing a game mode I enjoy cos of a crappy virtual stat.
  • W/L. This stat is honestly a complete joke. It can so easily be manipulated it’s not even funny.
  • K/D ratio. Probably the most relevant stat but still has some flaws. Again, game modes affect KD a lot. Also if you spend most of your time playing with a group of friends your KD will be much better than that of a guy who enjoys most of their time playing solo.
  • Infantry K/D. This stat had potential but it completely fails when you analyze how the stat is calculated. Essentially it looks at the amount of kills you have with anything that counts as “infantry” and then divides that by the amount of total deaths you have. The reason it completely fails because it doesn’t exclude the deaths you got in a vehicle. So someone who likes using vehicles will pretty much automatically have a bad infantry K/D. Those who like to use the horse (on horseback) suffer the most as you die more in a horse when compared to a tank/plane but its still a vehicle kill everytime you get a horse kill.
  • Accuracy: like K/D, it does have some relevance, but accuracy has so many factors that it’s really hard to deduct whether a person has really bad or a really good aim, unless the numbers are in extreme sides (like a 5% accuracy or whatever).

The best solution is to simply not care about stats.

Well first off I agree. Aim assist belongs on consoles. This is what people misunderstand every time I bring up the terrible aim assist system that BF1 has, that I think consoles shouldn’t have aim assist. No, all I want is for it to be reduced.
For infantry variants and shotguns, the aim assist should be removed completely in my opinion. If you look at games like CoD MW2 and Halo Reach, what the developers learned from those games is that aim assist on a sniper rifle = very bad game design. Both of those series now have aim assist disabled or have very minimal aim assist for sniper rifles, which is a good thing.

And if I’m being honest, I have no problem with slowdown, it’s just auto rotation that I find a bit ridiculous. But I mean it’s here to stay at least for BF1 so I can live with it, but all I’m asking for is that auto rotation is removed for infantry variants. It would be such an easy thing to do as well.

It has slightly faster bullet velocity and a larger magazine, but it bolts much slower. I have grown so used to the speed of the m.95 that I find myself dying at my normal pace when I try to use other scout weapons. They are just too fuddy duddy for me now as I have reached the potential of the m.95.

I thought I would bring this back on topic, because it’s just clueless people saying things such as carbine variants don’t have aim-assist & after checking the stats of such people crying out AA abuse I found out it’s just some noobs with horrible stats that love writing essays on here because they spend more time on the forums than the actual game… therefore they shouldn’t be taken seriously and they received more than enough of my attention and I won’t be feeding them anymore.

Nice to see you back after the ban, yeah I understand that. I was the same way with BF4 weapons and couldn’t stick to just one, but in BF1 the Gewehr’s just too good to run anything else

yeah, I remember the 24/7 ziba tower only days of running the M-tar & the AK5C was my favourite carbine also in BF4.

The automatico is definitely the AEK of this game and will not be surpassed for that close range dominance at least until the future DLC’s

It has the fastest TTK at close range out of all scout weapons, but the damage drop off requiring three shots to kill after 60 meters makes it just not worth it imo.

Nice mate, I’m still like #6 for AN-94 on BF3 . Were you saying that all weapons are the same within the same class in BF1 of in BF3?

@disposalist I don’t like the SMLE because of it’s terrible iron sights/radiums, as for the carbine variants I just don’t like the ugly optics in this game.
To me ROF is king in the scout class and that’s why I prefer the M.95. I kind of went over it in the OP.

kden

Yeah, you can’t really lose an argument when one never happened in the first place.

making accusations of abusing aa is hardly an argument, I never challenged you, your posts are literally nothing more than just allegations, also what subject are you blathering on about that you are so profound in? Aim assist abuse? I’m sure you love to (ab)use it to your advantage since you can’t stop ranting about it, good for you

like I said, allegations ≠ argument the sooner you grasp that whole concept, the better
you’re not a bad troll & did manage to make me reply to you however, so 1/10 for the bait
