I hate the way Dice overreact when they patch Battlefield games. They always nerf the weapons and ruin the game :( I mean two shots with a sniper rifle in HC mode? Nerfing the only decent medic gun? Just because a few people moan then the game gets ruined for everyone :(
 
wow that's a long list of "we tried to make all the weapons the same" :eek:

2 Shots with bolt rifles even with magnum on HC, sounds like the end of that class to me. :mad:

Now equals normal mode :mad: will lead to a lot of kill assists and a lot less sniper kills :(

Alternatively you could aim for the head like you're supposed to?

Except that people run around like mentalists in HC making their heads a much less likely target.

You're an idiot.

No they run around like mentalists in normal. In hardcore running around like a mentalist gets you noticed and shot. People just don't tend to stay in the same place too long (unless they're a camper but they're a marksman headshot on any mode).

I only have 1 Knubje's and 1 set of your tags. 4 Pookie tags though :D He's not best pleased about that

As we discussed on ventrilo the other day, the rarer they are the more everyone wants/needs them.

It's a bit like football (insert topic choice here) sticker books. Everyone has the Bob Khaaaan one six times but you need to trade 20 Bob Khaaaaan replica's to get 1 Knubj3/Hippo's shiney.

I only have one Knubje and one Khaaaaan, but I've got 5 Hippos. :D
I seem to remember a game where every few seconds I'd turn around to find hippos chasing me, and just managed to out knife him. It was wierd, like he was actually spawning on me.

The value of the HazardO tag has definitely tanked recently :(
 
These weapon changes all sound good :)

Look forward to seeing how many medics and engies there will be now.

Reduced LMG accuracy when moving and reduced CG damage! Perfect :D
 
LOL the server is just goosed, it wont fill up at all, no idea why not, it was full of unknown people earlier all expecting HC then leaving when it wasn't, at one point there was about 1 person joining a leaving every second.

Ive given up with it tbh. don't have any idea what to do with it.

While moving sure... M60 campers have always been the problem with LMGs, not run n gunners. And to make things better they INCREASED LMG accuracy in burst.

Hippo, i choose you! *throws dogtags*

Personaly i found run and gun medics a nightmare. Up in your face with a 100 round magazine, index finger clamped down full auto. Plus M60's damage has been reduced in line with the rest of the LMG's. Shall see how it plays later.
 
I had a blast with the new tracer dart earlier, and it made tagging choppers maybe a bit too easy. Good fun though, either I tagged then and shot then down myself, or I tagged them and got the kill assist. The tracer is perhaps a little too quick now though.

They were annoying but i fail to see how it taking 1 more shot to kill at distance is really going to matter. Given how its single shot is pin-point accurate and it has next to no recoil, AND its burst fire was improved.

Tracer is just ridiculously fast now. I'm all for increasing the speed but jeez, its like greased lightning now. I was using it to tag people and watch them panic when i RPG them :p

Bah, I used to really enjoy the difficulty factor with the tracer gun, some days I'd pull off some ridiculous plants, some days when my aim was off I just couldn't. Felt about right to me. This smacks more of veiled heli nerf to me than anything else really. That makes me sad. :(
 
Tagging people is so much fun, watching them try and run away from the missile lock, wooohahahahahah!

I haven't tried the 'new' tracer yet but I quite liked the skill required for the old one

If its as fast as ive read its going to be the new cool thing, spammed to death probably too.

Thing that get me is who complained so much that it got changed? Its like they fixed a problem that didn't exist and now its a problem

Have they completely messed up the hit detection? or is my normal server just a lot worse than normal? I was getting and taking hit nowhere near where it should have been possible hitboxes seem about 10ft away from the players now. when I know I miss and get a HS it's kind of annoying
 
Tracer seems a bit easy now. A good pilot before was almost impossible to tracer, and I think that tracers speed did need a buff, but I took down 3 fast travelling helis earlier with tracers and it does seem like they've now turned helis into death traps..
 
It feels more broken than it did before the patch.

I'm not going to touch this game for a while now i think, can someone PM me when they fix this mess of a game please :p
