Also, the Commando Carbine doesn't fit medic at all. I don't think there is anything wrong with it. It feels like the VSS from past games. However, it should have been given to recon, so they can play more aggressively. I'm fairly certain it was met for recon and they gave it to medic after we all cried about only having smgs.
As for the new LS/26, it's pretty much just a FG42 with a slower RoF and more controllable. It's an odd gun that doesn't really have a role. For closer stuff you just go FG42 and longer ranges you go the Bren or Lewis. This weapon is just kind of in the middle, but it only has a 20 round mag, so that limits its mid range use. It's not bad, but it's not good. There's no reason to use it.

Report for? They are doing shit about it.
How could you release a multiplayer game in 2019 without a anti cheat system. Madness, and stupid.
Because they did in BF1 and did not learn ?
And, so, in the end, they'll add new maps for the 5v5 mode but most people won't care because most people won't play this mode. Yay...
I'm sure someone said earlier that 8 v 8 is too big a number for pro gaming, 5 v 5 is them still trying to crack that market. It's crazy to think of the resources that went into Incursions in BF1 for no return, when it feels like a skeleton crew running this.
I'm god damn sick of these maps. This is what I always feared with ''free content'', the update cadence for what we actually care about which is MAPS, is too fucking slow.
Giving up on the game for a bit, I just feel like I've exhausted it. Oh well at least I've got Days Gone at least to keep me busy for a while.
Also I take back my positive post last week about Grind....after a few days that shit gets old quick lol
And Dice pls figure out what modes you actually want in the game, its killing and splitting server matchmaking for me.

The beach map is going to be large, don't know about the others.
You know what really sucks (other than the things we have talked death), the upgrade system. God, it is so bad it makes me wish we were back at the 3 weapon variants of BF1. At no point, I thought that it gave me any meaningful choices, allowed for situation builds or was simply enjoyable to experiment. Not to mention, I don't like playing with 0 level components.
Unlike level-up/skill systems where it feels like you unlock bonus functionality or customization for your playstyle, it is the opposite, it feels like I have the inferior item and I have to level it up to make it normal.
Probably easier for their skeleton crew to pump out small maps with reused assets vs actual meaningful content that players want (Conquest maps, factions, etc)
This is a screen from reddit showcasing the weapon:
Full screen and not even the name of the weapon is visible... WHO MADE THIS UI? HOW ARE YOU SO BAD AT THIS JOB?

They are still trying to go E sport.
That shit was tested in BF1 and failed and yet they still try
Imo it's very important to give games a pause once in a while, no matter how good a game is you are gonna to burn yourself out. It's inevitable.
Once you come back though, you appreciate the whole a lot more and nitpicks aren't as important anymore...
Also expectations play a big role when it comes to enjoyment of games.
After i took a break for about nearly 2 months (after Squad Conquest went away i think), i'm absolutely loving BFV right now. Firestorm brought me back. BFV is the best playing BF by far imo.
His more than evasive answer to "which modes those map are aimed at" are more than a little frightening to me.
I...am having latency issues and I don't know why. As of last night Battlefield V is giving me latency of 150+, on all modes. Naturally I figured this was something on my computer, like an update downloading somewhere, but that doesn't appear to be the case as no software is using the network. Tested speeds downloading from Steam and Origin to see if it was a IPS issue, and nope again; everything else seems to operate just fine.
Weirdly other players in the server don't appear to have ping issues, just me. Very frustrating and odd.

It's far too easy to imagine a lot more Grind, Squad Conquest and Rush maps appearing with a huge fanfare down the line.
Game is basically broken for me, for unknown reasons. All Oceania servers are 150+ ping. Resetting the filter for some reason decides I'm in Asia now. So that's my default I guess? Who fucking knows. Nobody appears to be having the issues I am having. There are plenty of Australians in matches with normal pings. I don't know if it's DICE's servers, my network (99% sure it isn't this), or my ISP, or what. I don't know. All I know is the game is now unplayable, with no indication of why my local pings are so high or why the game now believes I live in the Asian region by default.
Great game.
Great game.
i really enjoy this game but man, the map situation is dire.
let's go, dice.

New gun is meh, when i play Support i am using Lewis or Bren...
Lmfaoooo
Not satisfied with treating their customers as paid alpha testers, they're now going to openly ignore the fact that the vast majority of the fucking community doesn't give two shits about 5v5 / small modes / xyz gimmicky garbage and just wants actual 64 player Conquest maps. Looking forward to a whole lot of nothing to come from these supposed multiple maps.
My prediction is 1 new 64 player map and then 5+ variations of it with different areas blocked off tied to different small game modes all being counted as separate maps lol
The decline of DICE over this gen has been a thing to behold.

I am tired of listening to the same meme: maps soon, the largest BF support team, most maps in development.
Well, no shit most maps are in the simultaneous development for BFV. Other games had 6-12 at this point in the lifecycle + more on the way. Saying that you have the most maps in development is meaningless, it confirms nothing, it is just more attempts at PR to manage the negativity without promising anything new.
All promised content (US expansions September-October) will get BFV to barely above the They Shall not Pass or 2 BF4 expansions.
This game has so many damn flaws wonder if these 2 traits are active at the same time, improved accuracy while moving and stationary, when you apply these traits to the weapon the accuracy bar increase but it should be blinking to show what would happen while moving or stationary..

Is this guy an employee of dice? That makes me mad with his sarcasm.

Edit: sorry, had to tone my attitude and language down. Just overreacted. I'm just having a rough day.

And that poster does represent the community. More maps for conquest and forget about the rest of those have baked modes.

Can you point to where he was apointed the spokesman for the battlefield comunity? If not, he only represent himself.
I like it as well, but the with the VGOs rate of fire and larger clip, I prefer it.
Well, they are quite different tho. The VGO is a MMG, so a "prone" gun. The LS is a LMG, so more for run and gunning with occasionnal proning. It's in the ballpark of the KE7, Bren, Lewis and FG-42.
True. I've unfortunately become that prone guy because hip firing with it is useless. I've never played like that until this gun. It's been interesting to play differently than I'm used to.

Jesus.
EA and DICE have been like... throwing turds at the wall hoping for something to stick. We are going to have so many modes, which would be cool, but why focusing on stuff no one asked for? It was so simple. That guy may not be "official representative of the community", but you'd have to be blind to not see that conquest maps are what most want
I hope that 5v5 mode is cool and not a cheap R6 ripoff.

I'm guessing it's another riff on Incursions. TOW assignments might be able to give it a better foothold than it had in BF1, but I can't help thinking that 5 v 5 is doomed with this population.
posted yet?
edit: ahh it was posted.
Take a look at this; https://www.reddit.com/r/BattlefieldV/comments/b1e5d2/battlefield_map_release_timelines/
This could mean anything;
1. They are actually making more than 4 maps, but we don't know of what size and if anything is being re-used and made smaller.
2. "Post launch service" could mean exactly that, since they started making these games as a service-esque deals, so it doesn't count older games, so making more than 1 map at once is technically not a lie and more than they've done before.
3. It also doesn't mean just because they're making more maps at once that they'll all come out at once.
Either way the situation is pretty shit right now and this is what "free dlc" is like.
The patch rolling tomorrow is a huge one, it has a lot of stuff, mostly good ones (I'm looking at you, reduction of AA damage to fighters).
Still no further fix to the unreadable white text. The shadow at 100% is not enough
