Good Craig last night lads, teamworked like a boss

Nols, after you left we walked attacking on Volga , me top 32-0 and Ricky 25-0 as gunner, and Tae top ten as fixer and gunner extraordinaire.

lads, its my solumn duty to inform you, that I played several rounds with Tae the other night (&Gyppo) and Tae had consecutive top ten finishes & >1 k/d



was a yank server so we Gyp and I had 180 ping, tae was in the 40's - but he was fair dinkum decent. No getting trapped by a door. No missing the guy slap bang in front of him with his back turned. No shouts of "hey I got one bro" from him. just lots of handy resupplies and straight up kills of baddies. its true, he wasn't getting top 3 finishes like me as medic with the 1907SL, but I was barely reaching kd1 and was farming points with the revives and heals and grenade spam. (one of the few things left for me is 500 kills with this gun for the codex)

Yeeb, the RDR2 reminded me. I saw this video yesterday. Updates about things that will change in BFV since the beta. It all sounds really promising, IMO.

Biggest thing that you'll be interested in is that you can pancake cars with tanks now.

From the other thread...

backrow wrote:So last night there is a zodiac mission , 75 kills with SMG - try to combine it with the autospaztico elite I’m going for - 3 hours of Argonne ballroom monte passé later and I’m going to bed, only got 58 kills because I’ve been grenade spamming by accident.

Those zodiac missions are a pain in the hole, and often you only get a dog tag.
75 kills isn't bad if you get it at the start and you've three days or whatever and know that you'll be on for a few nights in a row. 75 kills with one weapon in one session is well beyond me.

Well the task only lasts two days and I was (amazingly) not in the day before, so was a one session target , combined with:
Going for autospaztico elite, only another 300 to go....
Going for explosion tank kills for a medal I need
Going for the ops backpacks so it’s argone ballroom and the Italian maps only

Had I been with hellreigel or ribeye I would have got there, but fudge me I hate the spaztico - got sidetracked taking out behemoths because not many peeps PTFO any more

Seriously thought about sacking off day out with wife and kids today to get the 17 remaining kills this morning, but God put a thought into my head saying ‘stop being a bellend’ so am currently on the train going to see some Shrek bullshit.

Sometimes these thoughts come into your head for a moment and then you need to have a serious sit-down and conversation with yourself.

Minilolz from last night part 1 -Tae gets an MVP on Somme !
Part 2 - I’m with gyppo on a motorbike, we are both a tankgewehr sentry for some strange reason, and aim to drive around shooting people as he can shoot from the side car. We zoom around at max speed, find an enemy tankgewehr - and I run him over. Laughing so hard I turn a corner flat out, wedge myself under a heavy tank, who zaps us one shot.

Yeeb, that was actually quite funny. I had your enemy tankgewehr lined up from an adjacent grassy knoll when you two ding dongs came flying out of nowhere and cleaned him up.

that bike is impossible to control

gyppo also got roadkilled by a low flying plane on that level

Some kunt roadkilled me with a plane on Ballroom the other day as well.

I think I'd be brilliant at roadkills with a plane. I'm always crashing my plane.

that medic gun RSC 1912 or whatever, is utter shite: 6 bullet mag, slow rate of fire, and it kicks - the only plus point is its quite damaging. took me longer than it should to get 20 kills.
the gun after was the lebel sniper rifle, and got my 20 kills in about 2 mins on Monte grappa >>>> HEADSHOT FRENZY

now getting 20 on the chauchat - another poo gun. at least it sounds nice.



my best sounding weapons on Bf1
Tankgewehr - Ka-CHING

daylight
Martini Henry BOOM
spaztico / LMG with the incendiary rounds - brrrrrrrrrrrrb
cauchat - bambambam

Hello gents, been away for a while but have been tracking all the BFV stuff obviously.

Do we think they're actually going to stick with the Nov 20th release date this time or will it get pushed back again? Have heard there's a huge amount left to do.

Also Sony have been cancelling and refunding pre-orders with pretty much no prompting which is about as bad a sign as you can get, although it may be because of the delayed release.

Also I'm starting to think there won't be a second open beta.

dunno lol - but I've not had any refund

They confirmed no second beta a few weeks ago. I'm enjoying all the recent information dumps. Definitely keeping me interested.
No idea on how realistic Nov20th is. I read/heard that DICE reckon that they're 6 months behind schedule. No idea if that's accurate or how much Chinese whispers has distorted that.


Yeeb, for the choochoo just go prone a ways back from a choke point or objective and let rip. With the bipod down the gun is rock steady and packs a huge punch per bullet. Do not try and run and gun, the ROF is too slow and you can't afford to miss shots when everyone else has SMGs. You'll get through kills quickly if you find the right place at medium range.

yup, defending argone last stage, I hopped on top of the arch, and let the feckers run into my hot load of death. got more kills in 2 mins there than previous entire map.

it is still utter shite though.

oh, and I went through my accuracy % against gyppo - am literally 5-10% worse than him for accuracy on EVERY gun. my bad accuracy by going after planes or suppressing, can only explain my LMG accuracy being shite.




in the scheme of things, I'm not sure accuracy alone is of vital importance so long as you capturing stuff or killing them at the same rate.

having ridiculous fun roadkilling peeps in fast moving vehicles now. if I'm in AA truck to take out yet another Blimp behemoth, rather than kill myself I just like driving way out wide and then running over camper snipers. SPLAT !


theres one on youtube where some geezer in an armoured car drives down an alley way on Amiens and gets about 20 kills in 4 seconds

Black ops 4 bruhhhhhhhh

Looking forward to improving upon my .40 KD from the previous iteration once it finishes fcuking downloading. 50 gig update for the battle royal mode (blackout)

last night on Ballroom blitz, I finish 6, Gyppo 7, Tae 9

there, I've said it - Tae is now a genuine top ten contender. fudge Brexit, THIS is the real global news !

almost got my 500 kills with autospaztico - on certain situations I can concede it has its uses, but I still hate it. but I have had several situations where I've gone round a rock or corner, met some baddies & panic held down finger, and zapped 3 or 4 in one burst. it also works well with a gas grenade to get a bit of damage in before they don masks, then you clip them and finish them off with the gun.

The Benny Mercie is also like a mini lazer, v accurate in sustained bursts.

deffo think the standard of player on there has dropped - had a couple of games last night with nols, I was using spaztico a fair bit and was therefore utter shite, only flipping to attack plane & AA truck when as a team we were running out of tickets - and we had about 3 games where we both finished 1-5 and I picked up an MVP. He is to vehicle driving as Tae is to doorways
(canny shot mind )

its always a bit when you don't think you've played particularly well and yet come near the top. Seem to be lots of camper sniper noobs who can't shoot or spot for shit - I got fed up watching these useless sniper duels, spawned near my base with the gewehr 95 and got a string of headshots with consecutive bullets on the Turkish fort map, then went and T bagged some of my own noob players in da fais.

oh, and the new BFV clip is out - accents are still woeful

"eets yor fackin fault !"

*sneer*

Nols, after you left we had galacia - I got a 'losing side MVP' same as you did. went on a Putilov running people over spree, and then a heavy bomber in the fog spree.

that Madsen is a turd of a gun, at least with the autospaztico I knew I could in fact kill if I amazingly got the aim on and it didn't kick like Cian Healy on a bad day. might sack it off and go for the MP18, SMLE and Gewehr 95, last two of which im pretty close to 500 kills already.

The MP18 is a piece of piss, once you've got used to the ROF, kick etc. I liked the experimental version. Fires in bursts. Handy for slightly longer range kills.

I enjoyed the periodic exclamations of "This gun doesn't kill people!", "This gun is poo!".

yep, I like the MP18, its like a slightly worse all round Hellreigel (but you can have bayonet)

at least with the autospaztico, it was just me being shite with it as I like aiming and not having to reload every 0.3 of a second. this madsen thing though.... I'm hitting the c-unit, but he ain't dying. it must have Kolibri sized bullets

maybe I should just play argone on defence and farm the kills that way. zero skill, but zero fecks given.

hope BFV has a perk where you can dual wield MP40's like Clint Eastwood in Where Eagles Dare !
that would be ultra-badass

Here's a comparison of the stats of the Benet-Mercie Storm with those of the Madsen Storm.

Madsen does slightly higher max damage per bullet, 28 vs 26.5; but the B-M does greater minimum damage, 23 vs 21. B-M also recovers its spread way faster after you stop auto firing.
The Madsen has a much faster ROF, 540 vs 450 rpm.

I'd guess that the faster ROF and slower spread recovery of the Madsen is just making your bullets go all over the place. For a, say, 10 round fully auto burst, you're able to keep the B-M on target much better than you can with the Madsen, and will generally get enough hits to kill someone. For the same burst with the Madsen, more of your bullets miss and you don't finish them.

Also, if you've been playing run and gun with the autospastico, switching to the slower firing, but still heavy kicking, LMGs is a big change in style. Sometimes I just can't make the LMGs work. I never really found the Madsen comfortable to use.

from using a bipod, the Madsen is average at best - have given up trying to hipfire with it. if you play ultra defensive, you can do some ok work with it though.

3 semi amusing bits from the weekend play

1. Play with Tae & Gyppo whilst I am roaring drunk - I get an MVP
2. defending Ballroom blitz on A_B_C section, I spawn in the AA truck and chew the Behomoth in 1 min flat along with the other Pom poms gunners - we're losing C so I drive in through the back gate, run 4 over as they are running to C - drive through to B and get another 3 - drive through out to A and get another one, turn left and then right and drive down the path to A and get another 3 - then I great grenades to feck an blow up, but was very
sadly I completely failed to work out how to save the video clip again as I was drunk so you are going to have to talk me through this

3. then last night, defending last section on Soisson - have the Tankgewehr on the ridge - get a collateral double kill on 2 blokes running down the trench path to the big howitzers. as I'm reloading, they get revived, I fire again without changing aim, and get another double collateral kill !

I can't see myself jumping back into BF1 any time soon I'd say. Caved in an bought RDR2, that's going to be my go to for the foreseeable future!

I'm saving myself for BFV. Still playing BF1, but mostly just trying to get a service star on as many weapons as I can and am half -assed working towards a few final assignments.

1000 revives takes a while.

yeah, havent' seen you on there for a while chap

I will stop playing bf1 when I cease to find Tae failing to go through a doorway or coming 29th when we are all top five amusing. I just hope he gets BFV and is just as shite on that as well.
I've also taken to playing as a medic and teabagging him before reviving him.

just follow Tae and you can get 50 per round easy

Steady on!

Not very pleasant Yeeb.

Teabagging your own teammates does not count.

Norm, I have already spent hours wandering around the map exploring not doing much of anything. It is a bit scary riding around at night that's for sure.

apologies, it was gyppo I same-team teabagged - I beat him 3-1 where I Tbagged his dead corpse before reviving him. A couple of times I died and he rushed over to Tbag me, but I tapped out before he got there so it didn't count & he got blown up by the same tank that got me for his troubles.

I got Gyppo fully legit with a teabagging when I was on the opposite side from you two.

Good Craig last night - fair play Tae on your second place. But by god, some of your quotes and actions make me laugh
“Tae can you revive me pls?”
“Where are you ?”
“ about six inches away !”


Your emblem needs to be a white stick on a wheelchair background !

V can’t come soon enough.

Although RDR 2 and Spider-Man are eating up all my gaming time atm (Spider man is f cking phenomenal)

It wasn't even a revive, I wanted an ammo pack, he was support. I turned around and hit him a couple of times with my cleaver to try and get his attention, the he looked directly at me and said "where are you??".
At this point we were both prone on a narrow bridge and facing each other.
