Battlefield 4 Thread ~ Server details in opening post ~

Ive only started playing the support class. The first gun, (cant remember the name) seems ok but a bit recoil happy. Reccomendations on which grip to use until i unlock something else.
 
Complete the SP and get the M249, you won't regret it.

I use the stubby on most LMG's, works for me!

Chopper guys what the best Helicopter countermeasure to run with?

I've just got the LSAT, using it with RDS and stubby, seems nice. Just had a 31 kill tdm with dodger tagging along using this gun, seems pretty good. As for the PKP Peekachoo or whatever the hell its called that ive just unlocked, looking at the stability, i'll be giving that one a miss

I did complete it but the end decision i had no idea what the fk to do.
I was trying to kill the annoying marine, was lokoing at him with the device in my hand pressing my left mouse button but then our big ship blew up. How the hell do you kill the selected one when holding the detonator?

can't remember exactly how but you look at the one you want to chose and think it comes up with press "e" for one or "f" for the other.

I did it x3 for all the guns.

Cheers Tony, i remember using the LSAT in bf3 and quite liked it. Will need to join you on a tdm server sometime as i really like this mode for a quick blast.:)
 
Ergo + laser and no barrel (although silencer on maps like locker) on every gun! end of! :p

It does matter when only 16 of those bullets out of the 200 hit :p

pfffffffffffft! Spray and hope FTW :p

The main thing with LMG's is that you really need to stand still or preferably crouch when engaging targets at medium-long range, accuracy when moving/strafing from side to side is pretty damn terrible, that is why I use ergo as it helps with that a bit plus hip fire is LMG's weakest area so laser + ergo also help with that area

This!

I used the ECM jammer in bf 3 but iirc it is bugged in bf 4 so I think everyone just runs (or technically I should say "fly" :p) with flares for now.....

Hmmm everytime I deploy flares it doesn't seem to do anything, maybe I am not deploying them soon enough.

More practise defo needed. I need you to fly the attack chopper Nexus, that way I can level it up like I did with the little bird lol

Possibly, as soon as you hear the beep... beep... beep... noise (:p), you need to deploy them straight away (unless you can get behind a building or something first) but since we have so many stinger/igla warriors, you will get another 5+ locks straight after :(

Could also be the activ radar missiles from the AA, you get very little warning with them.

More than happy to fly for you :) Probably get them far quicker with Joe flying though! Unfortunately only two maps that we can use the attack heli, siege and dawnbreaker.

I was a huge attack heli pilot whore in the beta as the heli just felt so damn amazing to fly unlike now, slow and clunky :(

Was the problem of missiles hitting aircraft before the pilot got any warning ever resolved?

Sometime the flares don't have any effect, I have hit helicopters with the IGLA when they are popping flares, the missile just ignores them. Also sometimes the missile will circle around they deployed flares until the burn out, then you can re-acquire the lock on the helicopter with the IGLA launcher and still hit it.

I can remember a round in the beta where i was gunner in the attack heli with you. Was a right good blast. I rarely fly much myself but on the rare times i do i certainly agree about how bad attack choppers are. In bf3 they were too overpowered, in 4 theyre the complete opposite. Dice never seem to find a good middle ground.

I don't think I could handle the pressure of gunning for Joe. Wouldn't want him to tell me off on TS.

Thats what I like about you, you can't fly and type telling off's on battlechat!
 
A few tips if we get the heli tonight Josh:

- don't waste your cannon on tanks, does so little damage, just use it against infantry, quads, jeeps and other helis
- tap fire, never hold and don't burst fire it, until you get TV missiles, the screen will shake like mad too :(
- always make sure the rooftops are clear

EDIT:

Oh and spot like mad! Especially the enemy heli.

Yeah pretty sure that has been fixed.

Have also noticed that happen a few times.

It really is ****ing frustrating this game in aircraft, the constant lock ons make me rage so much :mad: Not wndsr rage though :p

hehe I remember that round too, was awesome :D Even with the stupid RPG lock ons, helis were still great fun in the beta.

I didn't use attack heli much at all in bf 3 until the last few months before bf 4, even bf 3 helis are much better than bf 4 helis for control and I hated how "light" they were in bf 3.

So true, they really can't seem to get the balance just spot on in the middle, go from one end of the scale to the other :o

haha :D

With nexus bot, I can type and fly :p

Hey JGStonedRaider as you're the stat man and play competitively, what's the concensious on what's the best Carbine?

Seems like it's between the AK5-C, ACW-R and ACE 23 CQB?

There is always the ACE 52 CQB but that's a different kind of carbine I think.

Anyhow, I'm on now for an hour or so for a game if anyone's about.
 
Ace 23 is an assault rifle :p

IMO best carbine is ace 21, the only thing that the ace 52 has over it is higher damage, ace 21 has faster ROF, more bullets etc.
 
Think the last time I killed Joe we remarked that the ACW-R was the best Carbine, not sure if the stats compute for that or not.

imho for me its ACE 52 for any normal carbine and ACW-R with a supressor if I want to go all sneaky sneaky!

Nexus regarding tips - copy that! AFFIRMATIVE. THANKS
 
hey hey Nexus, I need da choppa stuff unlocked also lol..as well as the jets..**** knows how im going to do that lmao

Tony, I have all unlocks for the little bird...and only 3 kills! Just rep biatch for Nexus and spam RPG/SRAW's/Stingers at the other choppers and armour. Good fun.
