New BF Hardline Beta Announced!

[Nix]

I like the idea of less vehicles. Gives me more infy to kill

I haven't played yet, but judging by Kilo's video, it seems like weapons are the same as BF4... very little recoil.
Makes me sad.

[Kilo]

AKM has a ton of recoil but high damage, I'll upload a vid with that gun. Seems like until you can buy the guns for both sides the cops have the gun advantages (at least for Operator class)

Littlebird is really f-ing fun now.

11/10 Will buy.

EDIT: AKM looks really nice!

And you guys thought the bf4/3 spawns were bad. I've repeatedly had people spawn behind me while neutralizing an objective. Also, my grenades will occasionally freeze in the air when I throw them and explode in my face. I guess you could say it's mostly same crap in a different toilet.

At least there are no tanks.

wrong there is tanks but not that kind of tanks

M416 is really accurate as well...so both super accurate guns go to the cops? And criminals only get the AKM for Operator?

wat

visceral pls

I assume there will be a way to use cop guns as a criminal like it was in BF3 sort of.

So I figured out a bug/"feature" to use any gun on any side. Just set the gun you want in battlelog on the side you want and don't mess with it in game and huzzah! M16A3 for the criminals.

Thanks for that!

Also so far as I can tell you can do damage to scout choppers with normal weapons - assault rifles etc. I think that means once pubbies realise you can do that, flying the scout chopper is going to get a lot more hairy.

Second sniper rifle with magnum bullet does 20-70 damage to attack chopper.

Just done the same and also added the SPAS-12 to both classes

lol, this was a bug in bf4 to, nice to see that they are sharing the code base

[Kilo]

How could it be a bug in BF4 when there was no side specific weapons?

[Necromancer]

i guess he means the ability for the engineer to equip 2 launchers or AA mines + a launcher that was done similarly through battlelog.

Currently the weapons' balance seem kind of retarded. But in principle:

Players can also unlock a Weapon License for faction specific weapons after getting 300 kills with the weapon. Licenses allow players to use these weapons for both factions, but the weapon is still restricted to its class and each weapon requires its own License (http://battlefield.wikia.com/wiki/Battlefield_Hardline)

However I don't have 300 kills with the M16 but do have a weapon license for it. The Battlelog loadout thingy does seem like either a bug or another beta "feature" as you can select every weapon you bought. and the loadout works in game.
