Notice that only Assaults have 100x service stars?

Battlefield 1 General Discussion
1

Anyone else notice that only Assault players have thousands of kills with certain weapons?

Today in 3 games I saw multiple level 100+ players with tons of service stars on:
Hellreigel
Automatico
Model 10-A

That’s it. No 100x service stars on the SMLE, BAR, M1907 Sweeper or any other “best” in class weapon. Is this “proof” that Assault is the easiest class and those weapons are the easiest in that class?

And furthermore is this evidence that DICE messed up by rock-paper-scissors balancing BF1 when ultimately CQC is seemingly king?

My platoon leader has 100 stars with the sweeper.

I have 100 service stars on the al8 marksman.

Assault is the most played class for one.
I see 100 stars on the SMLE and BAR a lot, I never see them on the SL Sweeper because it’s garbage.
I see 100 stars on the RSC, mondragon, AL8 .35 all the time.
Honestly the rock paper scissors balancing wasn’t the best idea because people play cqb mostly.
Granted most of the people here seem to play a more ranged style.

To be fair, he’s a special breed.
I can’t remember his name but someone here also has 100 stars on the 1906.

I’ve seen plenty of 100 Stars on other guns. I would agree that of those I’ve seen, the most common were Assault, but it’s definitely not “only” Assault. I feel like I’m a decent example.. y’know, considering.

i just feel sorry for those 100star guys

Stop changing your name.
I keep thinking your name is something about ponies.

10

I love the fact that we posted pretty much seconds apart and so I didn’t see this initially.

But mfw you can’t even remember my name.

I haven’t changed my name at all. ;x;

Also, no idea where the ponies come from.

Thank you for your sympathies.
It’s always good to know people feel for you :slight_smile:

*100 Stars on the M.95

17,000+ kills with the Lewis Suppressive for me

I thought it was destiny pony…
The thing with the pony must have come from derpy.
At least I remembered you and your glory.

14

To be fair, atleast it’s “Destiny Pony”. I’ve had a few people say my name wrong before, but normally it’s just them saying “Desyatnik” wrong or something, but I’ve also had someone read my name as “Destiny Panties”. He was either reaaaalllllyy wrong, or trying to troll or something but it just ended up turning into a bit of a joke on that forum instead.

Coming from Derpy though, I’m not surprised. :stuck_out_tongue:

Atleast someone remembered other than Crabman.

I remember, btw the 1906 is absolutely sick. Ran out of ammo with my weapon, picked up someone’s gold 1906, it was my first time using it and I managed to go on a decent killstreak with it.

16

No more stars for my MH :frowning:

17

How dare they be using any other skin than the Falkenhayn. >:L

18

Yeah, it was hyperbole to get my point across. Of course there are players with other 100x service star weapons, but the VAST majority are those weapons. Like, it’s not even remotely close, but the strange part is is that Assault usage isn’t that much higher to cause these disproportionate numbers. This is all anecdotal evidence.

I’d love to see BF tracker do a “most service stars” type of thing on weapons.

19

Why not?

And that’s just the first LMG on the list. Change it to any weapon you want and you can see the people who have 100 service stars. On that link alone there is one guy who technically has 514 stars with the BAR storm
