Re: All aboard the BF5 hype train

On one hand (the old conquest), in GC when you hold the majority flags you're scrambling to hold those flags and keep the bleed - trying to take more usually ends in losing some (with the exception of some of the landslide victories/campaigns). This supports the kind of gameplay where you have atta...

Re: All aboard the BF5 hype train

Can anyone explain the conquest mechanics? I'm confused. Some people are saying you only get points for capping, not for holding? Wtf? ...realistically there's no reason to care about defending because there's no bleed, and once you jump out to a 30-40 point lead the game is over, you've won, there...

Re: All aboard the BF5 hype train

Can anyone explain the conquest mechanics? I'm confused. Some people are saying you only get points for capping, not for holding? Wtf? I get that things count up now and death is light as a feather, but i don't get if there's any point to holding anything at all your team gains points based on the ...

Re: All aboard the BF5 hype train

Is it just me or does one need to be very selective with the spotting? Is there a long cooldown? Sometimes I cannot mark people or planes or tanks. Pretty stupid. the spotting seems to have a very short range and still seems a bit buggy as to whether or not it works. there is definitely a cooldown ...

Re: All aboard the BF5 hype train

how long is the beta? Can only play on the weekend... Played the alpha, though. Runs to the 8th. And on twitter they said we're only going to get to play the desert map and nothing else. EA got DDoS attacked and the "gun glitch" appeared during/after that attack together with all sorts of...

Re: All aboard the BF5 hype train

got on to a server. started spawning in with only my primary weapon and maybe one gadget. whole server complaining about spawning in with nothing and not being able to interact with anything. started spawning in T-posed with nothing, no interaction available.

gun glitch lives baby.

Re: All aboard the BF5 hype train

and after playing some more and feeling like another wall of text: I was wrong about the sandstorm and/or fog, it can easily be worse than oman's sandstorm, but it generally doesn't last that long. in a 20 minute round it was maybe 5 minutes of crappy view tops, and you could make it slightly better...

Re: All aboard the BF5 hype train

played a bit before it crashed due to a memory leak and direct x error. if you have an nvidia card and haven't updated your drivers in a bit, you need 365.69 or something like that or better to play, so update your drivers if you haven't. the lack of recoil on anything is off putting. like, there is...

deus ex: mankind divided

in case anyone was on edge about getting this, I just finished it tonight. it plays smoother than human revolutions, the story was less disjoined, and and with the exception of one major thing I thought it was the better of the 2 Adam Jensen games. any reviews about stability issues honestly are ove...

Re: Paragon MOBA

so if anyone still plays this, I got a code that contains a whole bunch of crap because I ordered a new video card with my new rig today. I'm never going to play this (or any MOBA for that matter), so basically it's a wasted key for me, but remembering this thread existed I figured someone could mak...

Re: All aboard the BF5 hype train

I think for the BF Insiders the Beta starts on the 21st! You can sign up till the 21st to get early access. It doesn't say it actually starts on the 21st. Don't forget to set your platform preference on the site otherwise you wouldn't get the code. https://www.battlefield.com/news/article/battlefie...

Re: New Graphic Card & Monitor Recommendations

if you're stuck on getting AMD then get a 400 series if you can find one as fields suggests. even at that rate an nvidia 970 is still a better card in most benchmarks I've seen and with the 1000 series of nvidia cards being released prices are down on the 900 series, so I'd look into those as well. ...

Re: Evolve goes F2P!

if anything I would suggest people ignore this completely and don't give it any attention and let the game die as it should. 2k and turtle rock had a hype train surrounding this and then released an overly obnoxious DLC campaign on top of ignoring support tickets, refusing to actually balance the ga...

Re: All aboard the BF5 hype train

I like the dynamic that strategic gains are more important than an individual getting a whole bunch of kills, but it could lead to a more careless play-style if your deaths don't count. Maybe if we made the respawn timer longer to punish deaths more... We'll have to see how it plays out in practice...

Re: All aboard the BF5 hype train

watched some more of the gameplay vids. and honestly I'm not finding much to complain about and I'm glad that my earlier fears ended up being proven wrong. the only thing I'm a little miffed at is the robot lady announcer voice, hopefully that's just a placeholder and they put in something better. a...
