In topic I would like to talk about a problem which some people have with their favourite game. Today i went to play bf4 after a very long break and note that i played bf5 beta before that. So after i played couple of hours of bf4 i thought to myself that damn this game has aged in my eyes because I saw so many problems which this game has that simply put bf5 does not include. For example the vehicle and infantry balance is terrible. Battlefield is supposed to be all out warfare but how am i supposed to have fun as infantry if there are so many apcs,tanks,choppers,jets per most of the maps on conquest large. You would say thay if I want to play as infantry then i should play tdm, domination etc. But i do not agree with that statement because the only gamemode I enjoy is conquest and i would like to have an good experience as infantry. I guess sometimes you only notice bad things about the old games you love when new and upgraded ones are released.
I like infantry play myself, as it makes it for a more fair challenge.
Problem with BF4 it has no Infantry Servers, and 95% of the servers are Large Conquest.
BF1 gun play is extremely tedious, as the guns are inaccurate.
BF5 I didn’t even bother to join the BETA nor buy the game for the first time, as I had enough with the BF1 flop.
I see you own BF3, so you’ll find there’s more variety and infantry servers there, the Close Quarters DLC was a huge success. It’s useless to argue about vehicles in Large Conquest maps, as that always been an “issue” since BF3 (reason why I favor infantry play, where skill matters more than luck).
Get good at dropping choppers with RPG and flanking tanks with C4. Nailing tanks with C4 is a blast, 2 packs & its bye-bye buckaroo. Have to be smart about it & careful if they have a good gunner. Feels rewarding when you get one though.
Played a lot of BF1 and have a love/hate-relationship with that game.
BF4 really has some issues that is not in BF1. Vaulting is much worse than BF1 (and it has it’s problems), spawning is awful in BF4 (worse than BF1, which says a lot), “netcode” is really awful (invisible players shooting you, damage bundled), vehicle balance is just as bad (probably due to infrared-vision), weapons are still has RBS like BF1 (but with faster TTK). Also the maps in Europe for 60Hz-servers are pretty limited, you almost only get to play Locker or Shanghai,
But it’s a good game without the worst game-mechanics of BF1 (elite-classes, behemoths), weapon-customization works really fine and the graphics still looks pretty.
Still the gun-play of BFV is above and beyond BF4 and BF1, in BFV the (good) guns are just so satisfying to use, like no other BF-game…
Its not so hard to take down a tank by yourself, instead of firing an rpg as soon as you see it wait or try to re position and get the backend shot for 50 damage and mobility hit.
When you do this they will either pop aps so wait 5-10 seconds then follow up the shot for a destroy or they will bail and run off leaving you to steal the tank. If you just fire off at them from the side and front angles for 20 odd damage any decent tanker will back off and repair.
Its not so easy to take on IFV by yourself as infantry but they aren’t suppose to be, if one of them is tearing up your team grab a tank and go for them. If you play it right you should always come out on top with a tank against an IFV.
Maybe not though, I’ve seen enough posts in the BF5 section to know that the fans of that game are the reason Battlefield is in decline as a whole. So perhaps you are being serious here.
Maybe it is 3…its been a little while since I’ve blasted one. I thought it was just 2 though. I’m gonna have to do some experimenting today and double-check, haven’t c4’d one on PS4 yet anyways
Yeah that’s how I’ve taken most of my c4 tank kills. Run Recon with spec ops and carry carbine so I can stay in the fight with the team. Can carry 6 c4 packs that way can’t you?
Correct. I think it is the second upgrade though. So a lil bit of squad play is required
I personally prefer a bolt action, most of my kills are within 100m. Still a part of the action.
I agree a carbine would be most suitable but I just don’t like any of them enough
