Title says it all, I only started playing Battlefield about 4 months ago and even though I’m premium I could never find Rush matches on the DLC servers.
Some of these maps are incredible and should be appreciated by all, please leave the DLC’s unlocked as part of the regular Rush rotation.
Rush in bf1 has never been really popular due the fact that Operations work in similar manner but have more players and generally considered more fun. No wonder there aren’t many rush servers.
Out of the DLC’s I’ve only been able to try Caparetto, Achi-Baba and Passchendaele. I thought they where incredible, maybe because there’s no vehicles it’s just infantry vs infantry, makes a cool change.
All of the maps can be good though, it depends more on the team you get.
But if your playing with friends you can still have a big influence on the outcome. Whereas on the larger game modes if your sides unbalanced I’ve found one good squad can only delay the stomp
If you are an amazing individual player you will enjoy Rush. I still do but I don’t enjoy stomps anymore so I try to stick to the larger game modes because of the randomness of it all. Once you start seeing clan tags stacked on one side, you will likely see a lot of players leave or switch sides.
True, but because the player base for Rush is so much smaller you tend to recognise and remember the quality individual players, so if I see a clan on one side but I recognise just 2 or 3 of these outstanding guys on my own team I know it’ll be a proper scrap because just a couple of good players can turn such a small game mode or at least make it interesting.
Don’t play it that much but it did shack it up a bit when I was playing it last night, smoke grenades are a must and remember to spot as much as possible to help out with the artillery strikes.
I can’t play the small PTFO game modes for long because of this, when I’m on a team that are just playing for kills, it drives me mad, not saying the bigger game mods don’t have this problem as well but you can usually find a squad doing something constructive to tag along with.
Rush originated in a game called “bad company” it had a small competitive mode in that game called “squad rush” which was actually pretty fun, but very few played it.
Smoke grenades and spotting, hell yes. The gas grenade works quite well too when a mob is descending on the telegraph.
Seem’s like everyone hates the camping, but at this point in BF 1 I think it’s a part of all games.
Just out of interest, are a players PTFO stats included in the algorithm that matchmakes the teams? I.e If a player has strong PTFO then would they be automatically put on a team with weak PTFO?
Squad Rush was fun in BF3, for full teams I always enjoyed BC2 and BF3’s rush. After BF3 rush lost its luster for me and I’m not sure why. In BC2 it was awesome destroying the MCOM by dropping a building on it.
I obviously never experienced previous versions of Rush, but mate give Rush a crack again as soon as you can. The servers are packed with games and it seems to have brought out all the aggressive players, I’ve been playing non stop for 4 hours and every game tonight has been ferocious.
I’m going to be wrecked for work in the morning and it’s totally worth it. I fu*@ing love Battlefield
