As a habit from BF1 I was clicking multiple times the trigger instead of just holding it down until all the bombs are out.
Just today I realized that if you hold down the trigger “full auto” with the first person bombing sights in BFV, then the bombing sights will after the first bomb is dropped move downward in order to put each bomb on the place that you were aiming when you first pressed the the trigger, resulting in a much more precise strike if it is a multi bomb drop.
This only works on the first person sights as the third person one does not have that function. Seriously DICE I would not mind buying a game manual separately if it would help knowing exactly how everything is supposed to work instead of having to figure things out each game.
Seriously? I was sure that I could not unload all the bombs by holding down the trigger in BF1. That however had never prevented me from nailing tanks in a barrage of bombs in BF1, it just shows how weaker then BFV vehicles are, you actually need to know what you are doing.
I’ve flown a plane once in bfv for a tides of war unlock…i dropped 1 payload of bombs and figured it out about a second in when the next bomb dropped.
Like when a weapon fires another shot you instantly realise it’s auto, i figure that’s why they don’t bother telling people.
Because you had not already had a wrong preconceived notion about how it works.
Lets assume that for example you had a full auto rifle that fired at the same slow RoF as the bomber drops bombs and you for some reason believed it was a semi auto weapon. Would you ever try to use it on full auto aka just holding down the trigger in the heat of the battle where you really need to kill someone instead of experimenting?

I know it is stupid but it happens…just look at the safety warnings on most instruction manuals to see what people might have done in the past with an electric appliance.

Even now there are thousands of people who were not sure which scopes have how much glint as shown by how the video I made showing what has glint in BFV has more views than any other video I ever made combined. (5100). It does show that some vital information about the game is only accessible from personal experience of third parties.
At least if you want to nail that guy chilling in his red zone with an AA tank, spamming explosions at your bomber
I never expected that the 3rd person sights were a noob-trap for anti tank bombs on the bhenheim/ Ju88
If they added the bombsight window onto the Stuka I would be using that more often. But for some reason our pilots can’t look at our invisible feet for some uncanny reason.
Technically the Stuka does not really need it cause its good bomb (1000kg) is a single bomb instead of a barrage.
The mosquito on the other hand however is in trouble cause unless you use the overnerfed blockbuster bomb its other bombs are barrage type
Yet it seems that the bombs barely do any damage now, When I use the 1000kg i damage tanks for 95 but don’t destroy them, same with the 4000. I can’t tell whether it’s a server side issue or just damage output.
This would be nice if the sight wasn’t buggy half the time. I don’t fly often but will try this next time I do. I did fly tonight and got a 10 Banger on Breakthrough on Hamada.
Having the latency variation icon and hit claim confirmation that compensates for that variation helps too …
With a poor connection you only have to drop bombs in a circle of 100 meters around a target or shoot in front of the target and you still get the kill … you don’t have to aim …
