Lock On Scrubs & BF1

I thought that no lockons was pretty self explained when the WW1 setting was announced.

Haha basically this.

Also not wanting to be locked onto every 30 seconds does not equal being a bad player.

There are also no helicopters either.And planes will be there but not jets with lock ons and 30mm gau instakill cannon

So we’re pretty much guaranteed a cancer free game.

Just gadget wise. I hope there’s not an unnecessary amount of useless gadgets or there not used they way they should be.

Need at least 10 more threads on this topic before it sinks in.

This game has the potential to Make Battlefield Great Again. Removing scrub crutches and reintroducing skill into the game is definitely a step in the right direction.

sadly a LOT of folks that play these games are children or at least have the mind of a child

First, here’s a little something I thought you might appreciate given your RPG comments haha!

And secondly, have you ever played BFBC2: Vietnam?
Reason I ask: in “going back in time” Dice gave a nod to the more fragile air-based vehicles of the time. This meant that you could literally knock a heli out of the air, with a 1911 pistol…it IS possible that in order to balance for no lock-ons, that they decrease biplane/triplane health. Not sure it’s the fix you want…I shot down plenty choppers in BFBC2 with just my pistol lol

You will more than likely have to deal with Flak in BF1. I have a great feeling that it is going to be fun, both taking planes down and trying to survive in them. :slight_smile:

I hope we get flak cannons, I enjoyed using them a lot when playing BF1942.

I never played BC2. How many people per team?

I dont fancy my chances staying in the air long if they decrease biplane/triplane health and i have 32 enemies shooting at me.

Who needs lock ons when the planes are made of wood and canvas and slow as hell?

BC2 allowed maximum of 24 players total on conquest (12 v 12), and a maximum of 32 players total on PC (16 v 16).

Hey H-Hour former socom player?

I never owned it, but I did play it several times. Seemed legit enough.

Yeah IGLAs were super common back in the turn of the century.

It should balance out.
No lock ons, yet planes take damage from small fire arms

Who needs them in the first place?

Ahhhh damn I use to play it so much back in the day. Wish H-Hour didn’t flop.
