U get insulted coz u claim to be a team play but ain’t, team switching is lowest of the low!

I didn’t put down anyone in my last 2 posts, yet some people have the need to revert to insults, put-downs, and bad-mouthing other gamers.

Instead why don’t you add to the discussion, and give your point of view on the subject at hand.

So have sections for that Area and see if it does become popular. I’m not saying that Dice has to remove it’s bread and butter section, just have more Options. And who knows, maybe the New Team-based Areas could become popular, and different than the COD type games.
> 
> Again, more Options, and you get to choose your Area to play in, but don’t take away my choice or other guys choice if they do want Mil Sim Area, team-based area, or comp area.

you have the option to rent servers.

put in rules and you can play it however you want to and ban everyone who breaks them.

there is no option that promotes team based gaming.  
its up to the player themselves to decide if they want to play as a team or not.  
you can give team based actions a million points while kills only net 10 points and people will still decide for themselves if kills are more important or not.  
chances are they could care less.

in the end deciding to play as a team will always come down to a personal decision and cant be enforced by the game unless its removes the players freedom or gives them restrictions.  
you had servers on PC for CS where is you stood still for a few seconds you would loose health trying to discourage camping.  
i highly doubt we will see things like that soon on console.

they also already gave you the option to have team play TBH: its called a platoon.

find people who think the same way and squad up.

best combo is to start a platoon and then together rent a server with rules and make the platoon members admin.

that way you can have everyone play like you want and enforce everything as you see fit.

if you actually managed to fill tons of servers that way you also have the proper data that could encourage DICE to consider your suggestion.

it simply would help what you are saying.

Team play, especially in CQ, should be encouraged, but ultimately it is an individual decision.

My only doubt is, if you particularly enjoy a carefree and lone wolf run-and-gun style of playing, isn’t TDM a better choice?

I would like Bf1 to be slightly less casual than Bf4. I think that Battlefront, with its mediocre reviews, and with it having 1/3rd the player-base of Battlefield 4, just 6 months after its release compared with 2.5 years after Bf4’s release, shows that becoming more casual than Bf4 is not attractive to the general gaming audience.

I think that Battlefield 4 was a bit too casual, as well, by having such congested gameplay (partly due to having small maps, and not that many capture points), and a lack of game dynamics.

Bf1 should increase the sense of meaning to what the player is doing, by making capture points have something about them that makes them special, or useful, strategic…

Other helpful things would be

- larger maps, with more capture points, for 64 players
- having aircraft perform some function or ability that makes them relevant to the goals of the game (maybe supply drops)
- include a server-side option for limited sprint stamina, with a setting for how long stamina lasts, and how long it takes to replenish (and have a decent walk speed)

And I’m sure there are more things that can be done to increase the sense of meaning and purpose in the game, to create a good sense of reason for things.

That’s the logical thought. But In team death match everyone is doing the same thing they are and they have a target on them. Where as in an objective based game they can run around and play TDM against people who are more focused on the objectives

Yeah, pretty much sums it up.

If guys were just into the killing thing, they would pick Deathmatch. But, deathmatch guys come into the Objective Game Modes because they can troll the guys that are actually playing the team based game.

And as time goes on, less and less and less guys go for the flag locations or play the game mode, they just do Deathmatch in Objective game modes, and hope there are Suckers who still play the Objectives for easy kills.

The deathmatch suckers feed off Objective-based players, and don’t want Dice to change anything.

I think we are down to 2 or 3 players out of 32 guys that still try to play the objectives, most learned to play Deathmatch in all game modes. Thanks Dice.

Someone sounds salty coz they can’t kill lol do we really need to get into a discussion again about objective game modes!

When I’m playing cq and going cap a flag my main thought is I hope there’s ppl there to kill n same when I’m defending, I’m hoping ppl will try come take the flag back! Running around dead flags is boring!

It’s like killing fish in a barrel. You hope some newbie will nibble at the “bait”, … go for the flag, step inside the zone, come on, do it, do it, …" as you line up a head shot from other side of the map for 400 points! 🙂

Problem is, it’s harder to kill fish in a barrel. Everybody is waiting for "new’ fish to go for the bait.

We are waiting for you “newbie”, play the objective. I dare you. 🙂

And I laugh my butt off, when I see Dice give 25 points in Domination for taking a flag! So funny. 🙂

This is simply not true.

You can be team player or play the objective and still kill a lot of people like in TDM.  
That is what good players are doing and you see that back by them having a high score.

If you are being killed by someone in the middle of nowhere then the issue is with you allowing it to happen.

Obviously if a player is killing you near an objective he is obviously playing the objective even if you dont want to believe it lol

swfc4eva1  
I love it when you post the same team-switch comment almost every time I post. I love you man, don’t stop. Please , continue doing what you are doing. I talk about removing team-balance and team-switching and making the game more team-based oriented. And you keep saying I’m not a team-based player and team-switch. So funny. 🙂

I capture 2x the flags as you do and have 4x the conquest service stars as you do using sliding scale (percentage) for hours played. I played 70 hours and you 1,000 hours.

And please don’t say you play 4 other modes, I checked and you played 90 percent conquest. Conquest service stars 390, Deathmatch 30, Rush 0, Domination 0. I have 149 conquest service stars after only 70 hours. And you played 1,000 hours.

Love you man. I don’t think it would be a fun experience to play with you. 🙂  
I sort of wonder what you would do to me, if we were on the same side. C4 my heli? Shoot me in the back? 🙂

With a team-mate like you, you would be like an ex-wife who is out to hire a “hit man” to take me out. 🙂

Gee, if you wanted to be my friend, act like one, bro. 🙂

Don’t insult me every chance you get, and pat me on the back and say we should hang out and play together some time. That pat on the back probably contains a knife. 🙂
