I was watching levelcap playing Bf1 on his channel I he spawned in an airplane. The plane didn’t take off and instead he was placed in the drivers seat!!
and then I was hoping that maybe you emerge through the clouds or something. An animation of you taking off at base and flying through the clouds coming through the other side..
This would eliminate spawn killing or planes being stolen, and it would add the immersion for the people that want that. This would satisfy both parties.
Exactly. Though thinking about it, the map that was played last night looks to be very close to the Britsh front and far west of No-Man’s-Land. So i guess watching the German side spawn in the air, coming from the air makes sense, but still, the British side should take off.
The taking off mechanic is needed in Battlefield, please don’t chop it DICE!
wow really! This would really upset me. Add the battlefront style interface, the ridiculous 3D spotting and the women commander from the future the game play was disappointing. The reason battlefield has always been my go to game is because of its authenticity, and I didn’t really feel I was fully immersed in a WW1 theatre of war.
Right away my thoughts are BAD about this but lets really look at it from different angles.
A game needs to be balanced in a conquest mode. The mode is Conquest and not steal the enemies planes.
How many times that 1/3 of the team loses focus playing Conquest and make it there pure effort for the entire game to steal enemy assets? I have. I do it because it breaks the game. Again, the mode conquest and we should be playing conquest.
This is nothing new in BF3 and BF4. Some maps you would spawn in and some you could take off.
I hope for a game mode that as a lvl100 you can cap the base.
So in previous BF titles, you would spawn at a base that would be in accessible to the opposing team, by the boundaries. Surely this can be crossed over.
It prevents vehicle stealing, baseraping, spawntrapping and whatnot. BF4 did it this way too (excpet for SA DLC of course) and I’m perfectly fine with it.
They said there will be special role for tank crews, don’t see a reason why there shouldn’t be a role for pilot. So, you could spawn into the plane to prevent stealing, but could spawn with the plane on the ground and take off yourself.
I have a bad feeling they dummied it down for the console people. Do the flight controls on these Biplanes still require you to understand Pitch, Roll, and Yaw? Or were they controlled like the stupid X-Wing in Battlefront. Anyone know?
