  • Killcam is disabled. (Kill card is still shown.)

    The following will be optional for the server admin without having to change the preset to custom.

    List will be updated. If there is a dispute, post your reasoning and a strawpoll.

No killcam.

No auto-rotation on aim assist.

3rd person vehicle view and friendly fire should be optionally On or Off without changing the preset to custom.

With regards to a stamina system for the Classic preset:
The stamina system will operate in a very similar way to Battlefield 2 and 2142.

  • If you run, jump or bayonet charge you will use stamina
  • If you walk or do not move you will regain stamina
5

No team-specific out-of-bounds areas, i.e., team bases are accessible by both teams. (The OOB enemy uncaps were first seen in the Vietnam expansion of BC2.)

6

1HK Bolt Action Rifles
3HK Semi Automatic Rifles

7

BF2’s bolt actions did 95 damage, so how’s that classic? Even in BC2 they were 1HK up to 10 meters only.

8

1942, Vietnam, had cappable mains. Maybe even a few maps in BF2. I’d like for main caps to return. end those long winded one sided rounds even faster.

9

I agree. The first Bad Company had capturable bases as well.

@MartinBabl , You do know BF4 re-introduced Classic mode right? If Classic is going to be available in BF1, it will be almost identical to the BF4 version. Same with Hardcore.

Also, Have you ever seen the options available for a server? And do you know that if you change things such as FF off, 3rd person cams on, that the server is listed as “Custom”?

Ah, in South Africa we only had, normal and Hardcore servers. First time I come across it.

Servers that run it would be nice.

I switched to BF with BC2 so i dont really know how it worked before, i am a close combat guy and i remember BC2 was 1HK so i said that

I read there’s this sweetspot thing in BF1 so they could make it to be 1HK (at least for upper body and head but no arms) from 0m to the end of this sweetspot distance and then let dmg drop… i think this would help people picking bolt rifles since they would actually have a chance in close combat too

Awful idea. You could acieve the same thing by speeding up the ticket burn if a team holds all flags.

I cant think of any good, non sadistic reason why a team should have free reign in the other teams base.
