It’s best not to have unlocks that encourage boosting if possible. ---

As one of the older players i would rather prefer to not have all this boring grind in BF1 to unlock all items. I would rather just play for the fun of it then have to _use_ this or that item to kill _insert number_ to progress. Or just give a option to skip it for those players that are over 40 years old and have a life and just play casual. 🙂 ---

Teabag only challenges please. Teabag 37 people in 2 minutes. Teabag 2 people with one dip. Teabag one person for 7 minutes continuously. Teabag someone and then take your own life. Force debris to kill a teammate and then teabag your teammate. Switch teams and kill same guy and teabag as an enemy. Successfully ride and bag enemy heavy tank. 25 kolibri kills. Followed by savage teabagging (maybe around 15 seconds a bag) ---

Destroy 20 tanks with the HE crossbow launcher? You serious? That thing does like 8 damage to a heavy tank! The standard frag version does as much damage. ---

Sorry for being annoying and pessimistic but Why not pull back about this specialization and let the loyal player just play and enjoy the game like everyday since months?. It’s sooo simple… why punish the people who play the game every day with challenges or missions that break the armony of a game? For get two or three new players? ---

I’m still of the opinion that much more work is needed to be put into fundamental areas of this game rather than these specs, which is evident throughout the forum if you spend about an hour browsing it. But since you are diverting resources to something that could be better spent elsewhere imo, my advice would be the same as everyone else in this thread, keep it simple, keep it team work based and (obviously) keep it classed based, it’s really not rocket science lol. ---

So now it’s gone from saying we would be able to just pick 3 perks and apply them from the get go, which was too easy imo… to now your suggesting these stupidly long and in some cases randomly difficult grinds. You really are unbelievable dice. If you feel you HAVE to impose these perks on us 9 months down the line… Then keep the way they are acquired simple and squad /teamwork based like bf4. ---

I’d prefer if the challenges were to actually play your class. Heal, spot, toss ammo.. Some of these seem to be just that, and that’s good. However, some are pure random chance challenges. Some of these challenges seem like a grind for the sake of grinding or luck based… Not an actual challenge of skill. That or they are spam explosives related and that’s just .. ugh. In a round repair a tank for 800 damage? That’d literally mean following a tank the entire round and hoping they don’t leave you in the dust to get sniped. Destroy 10 tanks with the HE crossbow? Why not destroy 10 vehicles as support by any means? The HE crossbow is, shall we say… Garbage? As a medic destroy 25 vehicles with HE grenade launcher.. Again, why not just as a medic destroy 25 vehicles. Why must every medic challenge involve the grenade launcher? Please stop making challenges that make medics use grenade launchers, we already have too many medics not running with, you know, MEDS. Too many of these challenges are going to create camping issues, or people just farming these challenges. 5 kills in one life with the an elite? We already have people sitting ont he elite boxes waiting for it to come back, now that there’s a reward for doing so, more people will do it.. Rush is dead on PC, so winning any amount of rounds on that’ll be fun.. I’d much rather the challenges be “Do this basic thing your class should be doing X amount of times.” All I see when I look at most of these challenges is more people hanging back tossing explosives, or sniping at planes form the uncap.. ---

How about a perk for scouts that auto spots any enemy within say a 1m radius of the scout as long as they are within a capture point? Take away one or both flares for this specialization to balance, maybe? And give it a cool down if anyone complains. Or “Kentucky Windage” for scouts: Faster ADS time, slightly faster pistol deploy time, and any successful rifle hit within 10m 3d spots the wounded enemy. I also just like saying Kentucky Windage. ---

Auto spot spec - 100 spots - 50 spot assist - 50 spot flare assists - 50 periscope assists - 50 squad spot assist - 1 kill with trench periscope Auto spot will automatically spot a target when ads similar to the spot device attachment in bf4. You will have to complete 5/6 challenges above to unlock it for assault/medic/support This spec is automactially unlocked and apply for scout and to unlock the option it unequip it you most completed 5/6 challanges. Will be helpful for those that have issues getting spot to work, help out the abuse the spot button especially on console recieves and will bother scouts who don’t spot targets ---

The feedback has been extremely valuable to us, with suggestions for tweaks and additional Specializations. This is an area of Battlefield 1 that is likely to continue to grow. Thank you for being part of that! Questions on how to acquire these Specializations have been asked. Much in the same way we’ve been asking for feedback on the Specializations, we’re now asking for feedback on the process to unlock them: **Service Assignments**. With the introduction of Service Assignments, we hope to create a better on-boarding experience for new players. Battlefield 1 is a very complex game with a big breadth of content and playstyles. It can sometimes be overwhelming for new players to take it all in. Hopefully the Service Assignments will act as a guiding beacon on where to start for new players. More experienced players should also find the Service Assignments rewarding with new ways to test themselves and their skill. Here is a list of the first batch of Service Assignments. Note this is simply the initial batch, challenges that will test your skills even further will be coming in subsequent updates. Please let us know what you think of them: **Getting Started** 1 Storm the Doors - Challenge #1 - Perform 20 Kills with the MP18 Trench - Challenge #2 - Destroy 2 vehicles with Anti-Tank Grenades - Challenge #3 - Neutralize 5 flags in Conquest - Challenge #4 - As an Assault, bayonet charge 5 different enemies - Challenge #5 - Perform 5 kills with Dynamite [Previous page](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/introducing-service-assignments-please-give-feedback/103112.md?page=2) [Next page](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/introducing-service-assignments-please-give-feedback/103112.md?page=4)
