That “coming soon” joke on the Sherman at the end of the video is a one hell of a way to kick a player base when they’re down - Solomon Islands looks great though and as soon as 6.2 drops I think it’ll be a lot of fun
M2 Carbine deep in the Chapter Rewards. I knew it. I knew you’d do it.
Pay to get the best AR in the game on Day 1! Maybe grind it out in a few days if you’re a NEET! Everyone else with lives and responsibilities that doesn’t want to throw money at something like this? Enjoy getting torn to pieces by a weapon you won’t be able to earn for weeks!
I calculated that, with no change to ToW and general rank requirements, and a 25% increase of Chapter XP accumulation per round (10k from 8k), it will take you 90 rounds of conquest to unlock all 5 weapons/gadgets over the course of five weeks, if you also do all nodes of the ToW for these five weeks. That means around 1.2 hours per day.
Can someone explain to me chapter rank? Is is different from the rank I am currently? I’m wondering for the upcoming weapon unlocks. Let’s say I am currently level 12 for assault and I need to reach level 20 to unlock a certain weapon in the chapter. I’m confused as to wether or not there are separate ranks.
It’s separate. Chapter rank starts at Level 0 for everyone at the start of the chapter. You rank up over time mostly by playing the game, as well as completely certain assignments that grant bonuses.
The past few days a lot of people have expressed worry that in order to get the weapon(s) in the new Chapter, you’d have to grind your way up to the maximum rank, rank 40. Now we know this isn’t the case, in fact DICE should be commended for being reasonable in setting the rank requirements for each weapon.
Now, as for how much you actually have to grind, i.e. how long you have to play pr. day, I haven’t read the announcement from OP in detail. It seems like you can skip ahead in various manners which I honestly do not fully understand yet. So instead of us players panicking because 1 guy claims we’ll have to play 1,2 hours a day or whatever, I think it makes sense to take it easy and wait and see how things work once the new Chapter starts - especially when keeping in mind how the panic for a rank 40 requirement for weapons just proved to be false.
Many times we humans worry too much in advance about something we don’t know the finer details about, and then when the time comes we find out our worry was unnecessary.
PS. Also keep in mind that DICE have the option of adjusting the rank requirements for the weapons if they learn they’ve set them too high default.
Some good content but I assume this is just the first map and not the only map? I mean we’ve known this was coming since June of last year and we’re at the end of the current road map.
Hey @PartWelsh, thanks for the detail, can’t wait to see this CQB new map! Could you edit your post and add the location names for each of the flags underneath it please so we can get an idea of what’s what? Cheers!
