*** Battlefield 1 ***

More server lag tweaks, good. The last set helped, but clearly didn't completely resolve the issues.
The tripwire one is great, I haven't done any tripwire tasks yet. I hope it makes it to retail quickly :D

Why would you even consider having elites in TDM in the first place?
 
Agreed on the tripwire tasks, I've been putting them off so far.

Also intrigued by this: "turning the motion blur system off entirely when the video options motion blur amount is set to 0% which gains some graphics performance."

The elites in TDM and Dom show just how little thought they put into the game.

My first look at Incursions and one of the kits I think was a hellriegal plus medic pack :D:D:D

The game itself is well thought out (arguments about whether separating class effectiveness by range is a good idea aside). What isn't well thought out, and has plagued bf since I started playing in bc2, is that they try to shoehorn too many game modes into too many maps without enough map adjustments or limiting which weapons/equipment are allowed on each combination of map and game mode. In some ways incursions addresses this very issue.

But then hellreigal and medic pack. ..

Yup I'll be on tonight. :)

Just a few notes for non old school players/regulars..

Squad priority is always given to people on Discord (Except in special circumstances), but otherwise if there is space feel free to join, and if there isn't you can always ask (there are often randoms on OcUK players in the squad).
If you are medic, support or cavalry, drop the rocking horse **** like you have diarrhea.
At the beginning of the round we tend to put the objective on the closest flag, but if you can get to a central flag (you have a vehicle or horse) do so. We only set the objective to the closest flag to whore points for the squad ;)
Do not over extend. A common reason for a team failing is that having taken their backcaps and the center flags, they over extend and get flanked. You then have to deal with spawn bomb squads behind your lines for ages. It's better to hold the majority of flags and a line across the map.

That's mostly because of the dodgy servers (although there was also a temporary influx of top flight players re-assessing the game in the light of incursions). The servers have mostly improved, but their not perfect by a long shot. DICE were testing a further fix in CTE this week, so hopefully the servers are going to improve again. (Although I think one of their new fixes is simply to move the servers from Ireland to Hamburg). What gets me is that within the squad, different servers seem to perform differently for each of us (might be VM vs BT, not sure).

What are tripwire challenges? Just having a half gig update now. I will play online later, been saying that for a while!

In the last DLC, perks (specializations) were added (for all players). You have a starting set you can chose for your loadout, but others have to be earned. There are a set of challenges for each class (+ one generic set) to complete, and you have to achieve all of the challenges for at least 3 of the classes before you can unlock the challenges which reward you with new specializations. Kill 10 enemies using tripwire bombs is one of the challenges in the recon set. For the most part the challenges are actually trivially easy to complete, but there tends to be at least one awkward one in each set.

I'm hoping to finish my crossbow grenade kills tonight for support or 5 bayonet charges for assualt tonight. Preferably with the victim being a dev or EA rep. :D
 
I'm on the discord server but haven't actually talked or played with anyone yet. To squad up, you don't require a mic do you? I don't have one.

Nah we have Nexus who has spoken once in 4 years - he has a medical issue though, he is Irish, so we make allowances.

We don't bite though and most of us aren't 12.
 
Just out of interest of the remembrance - nearly a year later after all the slating Nexus and Josh did over this game, did either of them end up buying it in the end after they swore not to?

Well this is awkward as I didn't slate it - I enjoyed it just stopped playing as it wasn't what I wanted from a BF title.
