*** Battlefield 1 ***

Starting playing around in a bomber today, since my team pretty much has complete superiority of the map.

Is bomb no.1 anti-armour and is no.2 anti-personal?
Also what does ability no.3 do?

3 is a spotting camera. Recharges like the lightening repair.
 
anyone had a spinning "circle of dots" after a match vs the actual end game report (with battlepacks etc) ?

do you loose all the points you got in the game (would be annoying considering a game can be >40 minutes ...)

I'm pretty sure you still get the points as I've had battlepacks appear the next round that I didn't have before, despite not seeing them end of round screen.
 
Have they done something to the bomber and fighter planes? Couldn't seem to keep them flying level last night. I was fighting with my mouse.... Gave up in the end.

I think this is a bug but I've not reported it. It seems like on some maps in some certain conditions (not even sure what those are), controls for the planes goes totally loopy. They simply don't respond to the right input and it's almost as if mouse up does both elevators and aileron at the same time, or something like that. When this happens I simply give up on the planes for the round/map.

Why do the planes fly differently in the campaign mode to the MP mode? (They seem extra sluggish in MP mode. Seems daft to change that to me). Also, you cant repair and turn your plane in MP mode...crazy coz you can do it in campaign mode.

It looks like flying planes with a KBD/Mouse combo isnt the best way to do it. Time to get the wireless dongle and the Xbox controller out. :p
 
Love the look of this game, love the atmosphere, the music, the general feel. But gosh darn it, so frustrating :(

one round I am doing normal for me - nothing great but getting some kills in to balance the K/D ration. Then next round, I am destroyed...one shot kills everywhere and I can't hit a thing. Empty a clip and the other player has 25% damage. They turn and shoot me and pop I am dead!!

It isn't cheating, and could well be my broadband connection (on slower link atm) - I just hope it is not BF4 all over again with the dodgy netcode!

See you in the trenches!
 
I've literally only played 2 hours of multiplayer last night and didn't really notice a sniper problem. There was a fort level in the desert by the sea which could have been an issue but if you play it smartly then its no problem. Obviously plodding over a large open expanse of a flat sand dune is not a clever thing to do.

I've seen people complaining about this to.

Only sniper issue I've seen is when you get on a crummy team and too many of them have picked the sniper class so not enough people get on the objectives...
 
there can be a lot of snipers on some maps but mortar team or many are just bad anyway and cant shoot on move.

so it is just snipe dead snipe dead.:D

gas is very important on a lot of maps. always stick on objective or in house so the enemy has to hip fire.or take time to put mask on.also as soon as you start to get points you know enemy is close without seeing them.slows them up also.
 
I'm convinced there's a problem with the net code. I can be killing people with every 3 shots with the Mondragon, but then all of a sudden none of my shots register...

Agreed!! That's one reason I'm not overly fussed on playing currently and sinking time into Div instead. I've had so many encounters with rubber bullets and lack of hit detection, it's frustrating. Just like the BF4 release...
 
Never had a problem with snipers or mortars tbh, snipers were a real bad problem in BC2, not an issue in BF1, the sniper rifles have to be used at the right range for a one shot kill, most of these one shot kill ranges consist of 30/40 meters, might be a problem when the hardcore servers release though as I liked going hardcore before. I did however run round inside a door for cover last night and died when I was in the house a BF4 problem, first time this has popped up in BF1 for me.

I am getting a bit sick of being ripped up by the telescopic BAR from a massive distance, which I suppose is fair enough as it's currently the weapon that holds my most kills ;-)

Personally I like the Model 10A - Hunter shotgun - seems a bit too powerful though :p

Quite like all the classes though and the game in general, had more fun in this than any previous Battlefield game. I was never a hardcore BF fan though being more of a quake player.
 
...and where the hell is Hardcore mode???

Keep getting frustrated after hitting someone with over half a clip and they run away. :confused:
 
Finally unlocked the class 10 hellreigel today and wow does it deliver. Mid range is effortless.

Still miffed by the bugs though sometimes i can go on a rampage and murder everything then all of a sudden the netcode jacks in and hits don't register fully and I'm spraying like a madman then get dropped while he strafes in front of me like I'm not really shooting.

Frustrating at times.

Then there are planes. Your tailing an enemy only for them to disappeared upwards faster than you can follow, thats not skill its lag and plenty of it. My connection isn't suffering at all but it happens regularly.

Also have the bug where the stats screen after round doesn't fully load hope I'm still getting the points.

Next on the agenda is to jump in a mortar squad before they nerf the crap out of it like they did in BF4.

Wont be bothering with the season pass unless they sort out the issues before December when the free content drops.

Need more weapons too and a better way of tracking class levels whilst your in game its annoying to keep clicking the customise button to find out where you at.

Totally agree couldn't hit a barn door with a banjo yesterday , seems like I get one good round out of five even though when I look at pings i nearly always have the lowest ping on the map ,so can only presume its server side... :confused::(
