How do you switch aiming modes on the smle? I want iron sights and was using the sharpshooter variant, first time I had iron sights with an off center mounted scope then next life I could only use the scope. 1895 Russian lever action is probably my favourite scout class rifle.

>>
>>344111357
I also think like the basic skins (colonial stuff for brits) will be customizable too, but I dunno.

Basically vehicles spawn like jets in bf4 maps. You have to request them in the spawn menu and the person who requests them is a driver. They get a pistol and repair tool, and either an anti tank grenade or flare ( I think the grenade for tank crewmen and flare for pilots). The only vehicles that spawn without needing a driver are transport vehicles. It also means you can't steal a vehicle that's empty in spawn as you could in older games. You can steal them int he field if they become abandoned. Also you can choose what tank you want, So a team can have 3 or 4 light tanks and no other type because that was what was picked. or 3 landships. Samething for planes.

i thought destruction in BF3 was pretty great. It was BF4 were destructible environments was mostly tossed out - except for boring pre-rendered stuff.
>>
>>344112210
Oh, so you choose to spawn as a vehicle instead of as a soldier? That's neat.

Are the bolt-actions good at range?
>>
The game is literally BF1943 in WW1 with a touch of COD Ghosts feel in the setting. The aiming even feels like it. I don't know how this would settle with me considering that I'd buy for PS4 because I don't want to upgrade my gpu from a 660 to current gen.
>>
I think I would like the game better if it was a fictional setting inspired by WW1 - say it takes place 2 years after germany managed to capture Paris and secure the western front or something. That would make the advanced tech and run & gun gameplay less irksome. I'm a sperglord though so whatever.
>>
>>344112713
The bolt actions are lasers and 2 shot body kills, 1 shot head. You break cheek weld and sight picture to cycle another round which is bullshit
>>
>>344112713
Bolt actions don't lose too much damage over range so you can pretty much kill every other class. I didn't play recon too much in other bf games, but this game recon is pretty fun because the other classes are less powerful.

Are bolt-actions a universal weapon, then? Can I tote a Gewehr 98 as a medic if I want?

Good to here there's a tradeoff over automatics, though. That might keep the weapon diversity up.

confirmed for not playing it

you can make huge craters in the ground, building floors can be destroyed seeing down into the next level. No more scripted building collapse, every part of the building is destroyed separately

Even though the destruction was cookie cutter what made it work was the fact the buildings broke the same way.

BC2 destruction was simple but it fucking worked.

Bf3 and bf4 destruction are lackluster and not useful.

Is BF1 destruction useful? Like clearing walls to get to an objective faster? Or opening sights to a target?
>>
>>344113561
No, it wouldn't The German Askaris never made it to the Western Front, but the French and British used their colonial troops widely in the West. The Indian Army got their very first Victoria Crosses during the Battle of Ypres in 1914.

The Montedragon is a real gun, actually. Self-loading semiautomatic. It didn't see very wide service because it was expensive, so the Mexicans couldn't very many and thus the Germans weren't able to buy that much surplus, but they did have some. They used them in air combat for a while, even, so it isn't unthinkable that some of the rifles made their way to the front.

>>344114297
No, I mean the Entente widely used colonial troops in the European front. Ypres is in Belgium. So, colonial troops ARE 100% historically accurate for a WW1 game set in Europe.

The assault class has 2 anti tank grenades but I dont even use them on tanks because they are timed, not impact. They also cant be planted as mines you have to run up and either find a tank sitting still or time it to blow up in their path. I just use them to blow up walls

i think you may want to consider that "realism" could be a sliding scale rather than an on/off switch. The scenario being presented to us in the game isnt perfectly historically accurate, but it has basis in fact and wouldnt have been in implausible thing to happen.

If what you demand out of your games is perfect historical accuracy then not only is this game not for you, but this entire franchise is something you should skip. Bending history just a little for the purposes of gameplay or narative is a longstanding tradition in battlefield games.

exceprt it's literally impossible because to get niggers from the Jungle you need to transport them by sea. And if you look at the map of the german empire, their only access to see is at the north. And guess whose fleet is patroling those waters.

So no it's literally implausible, and yet we're supposed to play as niggers on the western front IN GERMAN RANKS. As another anon said if it was some african map it would be undrerstandable.

There were MILLIONS of black people in every army. In fact, most were the ones sent to the front like. WE WERE the ones that died during WWI, not any fucking white troops.
Consistently black men are stronger, smarter, cooler, and better with guns than whites. We ruled the world from Egypt to Rome, it was only when the Roman empire fell did the blacks fall

the whole CoD vs BF argument of old was that BF had some realism to it while still being a fun casual game

ive played all BF titles from 1942 to 4, always enjoyed the authentic look of the veichles, weapons and soldiers until now that they completely went apeshit with everything from weapons to characters

No, the problem here is that, because you don't like that, all discussion about that game will be doomed.
You won't be able to talk about BF1 ever without some dudes derailing the thread to complain about niggers.
Ironically, that's a form of censorship.

>>344118102
Yea, DICE are really lazy as fuck for this game on a lot of fronts.
RO2 and Rising Storm had great squad talk for both sides, both in the original language and english. Fucking COD gives all the sides their own accent going on and such.

BF3 destruction was heavily reduced compared to BC2. BF4 was more of the same with lelvolution or whatever.

Fact:

the thing is, neither the sjw's or the anti-sjws are big enough groups to really matter in terms of sales. The choice of having a black protagonist will however spark controversy and get them tons of free advertising in the form of articles and forum posts exactly like these in this thread. From a business perspective it seems like a great idea.

>now some cuck calls me a racist because the things i loved about the BF series are gone
what is gone exactly? Is this game less accurate in regards to weapons and vehicles? If thats the case that seems like a much better argument than "i dont want a black protagonist"
>>
>>344118597
Actually that's an accurate swedish retelling of WWI. You can find it in their local swedish history books.
>>
>>344118495
Because that goes without saying. It shouldn't need to be said that "the game should be free of bugs at release". It's sad that it does, but I think we can assume that everyone on /v/ but the paid shills can agree that the priority should be bughunting.
>>
>>344118516
wait, you can play as females on the western front? can anyone confirm?

If it's true, than it's the biggest spit in the face to all the veterans. Not only is it historically inaccurate, but it's completely disregarding the abhorrent behaviour of women during the Great War (ie calling men cowards, giving white feathers etc)

Because you, like SJWs, are EA's tools.
They knew perfectly well what was going to happen.

Gotta love how easy it is to use extremists as tools for marketing.
Now thanks to /pol/, we ALWAYS have a Battlefield 1 thread in the catalog, and SJWs will ALWAYS be talking about it due to progressiveness, and as you all know, marketing isn't about praising something, the fact that it's talked about is more than enough.
DICE didn't even put the bait and you all bit the hook anyway.

Now, imagine if Battlefield 1 was just historically accurate.
Nobody would be talking about it in /v/ or on twitter, you may get some SJWs whine about everyone being white, but as always, they would forget about it.
Not now tho, now it's discussed everywhere, by both sides.

The system works.

I think veterans wouldn't give a fuck about that.
I think the fact that people are making money off their suffering, be it historically accurate or not, would be offensive to them.
>>
>>344118747
I'm almost sure that you can't. I've never seen a female in any gameplay, and I remember some SJWs getting upset that you couldn't play as women in multiplayer.

Seriously though, isnt like 2/3 of the multiplayer cast black or can you edit your character fully like everyone keeps dancing around being a feature? Not just skincolor but the uniforms and stuff, there seems to be some differences between them Ive noticed even when they are the same class.

Just say there is an "editor" like in Battlefront, theyre intentionally doing this to generate controversy and intrigue and its working.

But the Cei-Rigotti had a production number likely lower than 100, and was never used in combat. I'm bothered by the MP-18, but at least that actually got past prototype stage, and was used in combat. Yeah the British can use the MP-18, but they can use the Cei-Rigotti as well, despite it being Italian.

the authentic feel of nations in the game from english to italians in 1942 which includes weapons, vehicles and SOLDIERS

same was true in vietnam, BF2 and even 3

its what sparked my intrest in history and military history in particular, its one of the main reasons i joined the army and served as a tank crewman and later commander

even today while i play alot less games i remember what i loved about those games as a teenager and why BF2 was my favorite game for years

even today i still play Project reality and that mod was built started as a BF2 mod

it just pisses me off to see a game series i absolutely loved lose what i loved about it

That's what I mean, though. The British can use the MP-18 in large numbers on a map set in like 1916. It's Battlefield. Them giving the players the ability to choose "cool" guns has always been there, even back in BF1942 with the Brits using BARs in the desert in large numbers.

and just to be clear, does that extend to the weapons/vehicles/whatever in this game being distinctly more poorly represented, or is it purely the black protagonist?

You seem like someone who genuinely cares about the franchise and i honestly haven't looked into the historical accuracy of the weapons and such so im really curious.
>>
>>344120052
The weapons are all over the fucking place in the multiplayer, with no care given to historical production, country of origin, or widespread usage. Everyone has the same weapons progression across their classes, so they aren't forced to try and play specific factions to unlock their basic shit.

old battlefield games had each faction getting their own weapons and veichles

1942 americans had garand, thompson, springfield, BAR, and a trench gun, while germans had ghewer42, karbiner 98, MP40, MG34
same goes for japs, brits, italians
this is the same with vehicles

BF2 had some unlockable weapons for all nations but base were nation specific (M16a2 for US/ AK74 for MEC/ type95 for china)

i dont go into detail about vehicles because there is so much to say you better just look it up
and this was battlefield up until 2 (2142 was scifi so i wont include it)
BF3 is where everyone got everyones weapons and where you could change soldier uniforms but vehicles we're still nation unique

havent played bf4 enough to make an opinion on it since the disaster it was on release put me off it

and now we get BF1 where nothing is nation specific (maybe the tanks?) and prototype weapons run rampant

the black soldiers is the icing on the cake with how disappointed i am with this game

obviously no one cares about my complaints on the military hardware issue that was staple of the battlefield franchise but "BLACK SOLDIERS" sticks out like a sore thumb and people will disregard all other issues i have with this shit

i just want a battlefield game, a real one.

It's got the fast movement and low TTK of BF4, but with innate weapon inaccuracy and a lot of low rate of fire/semi-autos/bolt-actions. It doesn't mesh and just feels bad.

Other than the modern ones (technically future) when has Battlefield used prototypes that were never deployed?

And Secret Weapons of World War II doesn't count because that a was a DLC specifically meant for an alternate World War II where prototype equipment did see service.
>>
>>344130197
In 1942 the Soviets were equipped with MP34's, BAR's, Bazookas and Lee Einfields, the Japs just used german weapons, DICE has never given a single shit about authenticity
>>
>>344130428
But at least those weapons existed. Plus, the Japanese did use MP-18s during World War II (I'm not talking about the type 100), and the Arisaka Type 38 was just a copy of the Mauser.

Anyway, plenty of those weapons existed at that time. It is much more realistic for a Russian to get a Lee Enfield, of which over 17,000,000 were made, than for a troop in World War I to somehow get their hands on an obscure prototype rifle with fewer than 100 made.
