God awful gun balance, kino setting and atmosphere

I loved 1 for letting me have fat LMGs with 200-round boxes that could be deployed to pump streams of lead with near zero recoil

>>718921886
Parabellum MG 14/17 and the MG15nA Suppressive are probably one of my most favorite dakka cannons to date. It's a shame that you will never be able to use those guns again in another vidya.

>>718921406
They should have made voice lines in a lot of languages and made it randomize per spawn for AU

Dreadnought > Armored Train (Sinai, Suez, Amiens, Giants Shadow) > Airship > Armored Train (other maps) >>>>>>> Char 2C

Operations in Bf1 was way better than breaktrough in BfV, although BfV is still a fun game despite that.

For me it's

>>718920258
having concept weapons

Hate that they wasted a kino setting and theme with bad fps gameplay. Maps feel tunneled and there is no movement tech to swing out of cover, everything is way too static.

>>718922556
From my experience Dreadnoughts are usually useless as fuck, armored train atleast caps some points and airship is a good spawn point if retards also know as teammates don't fucking hoard all the seats

>>718922361
They kept units segregated by ethnicity. There's a good reason why Czechs mass revolted against the Austrians.
The only truly mixed one was the navy, where a single ship had ethnically diverse crew. But even then, different ethnics were given different roles in accordance to their traditions and specialty. (Croats and Italians made up the majority of sailors, but Czechs and Germans manned the main guns, whereas Hungarians would man the secondary guns and fill the role of weapon officer.)

>>718920258
It's neither
It's just a bad representation among many others

>>718921406
Tannenberg did this and it was hilarious but awesome. The lines were great although the voice actor wasn't the best for the job

>>718920050 (OP)
i liek the sweet spot mechanic

>>718920563
Hey speaking of tanks why did they move back away from animations for getting in and out of vehicles, it clearly makes for better gameplay for the people shooting at you

>>718924871
Oh yeah in that sense you're correct, the other two are much more helpful strategically.
My ranking was only based on fun factor to play. You could get mad kills as dreadnought because you're out at sea and nobody could be arsed to torpedo boat you unless you raped the enemy team very hard which was easy to do, especially on Fao Fortress.

Our armored tank has arrived.

>>718920050 (OP)
I love just running around with my saber and hack n slashing up fools before either getting gunned down by a firing squad or blown up by a tank. Good times.

>>718927028
I wish there was a point in drawing your melee weapon

>>718920258
Giving the support class weird ass mask and helmet.

>>718927086
I thought the point was just fucking around with a sword or a meat cleaver?
Unrelated but I wish I'd unlocked the peacemaker.

>>718927521
>Unrelated but I wish I'd unlocked the peacemaker.
It's pretty doable apart from the second dog tag (A random chink helped me do that one)

LETS SWEEP AWAY THESE TURKS LIKE THEY WERE NOTHING BUT MOSQUITOES

>WAIT, ARE WE FIGHTING TURKS OR GREEKS?
>WHO CAN TELL??? HAHAHA

For me it's the AT Rocket Gun.

>>718926642
It pissed me off getting oneshot bodyshot like it's cod but it did a good job making sniper rifles stand out from one another. as I remember only like 3 sniper rifles were good in BF4 all others were just worse or gimmicks like the discount dmr or scout.
>>718926696
Probably devs decided that it was too much of a pain in the ass to get killed trying to hitch a ride or maybe they didn't feel like making animations for it.
>>718926817
For fun factor i'd put armored train last since it's basically a glorified mortar landship from gameplay standpoint also dice shouldve added some blank seats to all behemoths so they could double as spawnpoints
>>718927521
yeah pisskeeper is such a pain in the ass to unlock dice really overdid it i wish they added normal colt singleaction so we could have a one shot headshot sidearm that isn't obrez or assault exclusive(gasser).

>>718927028
Easy there, pal.

They did. It's the Peacekeeper.

>>718930126
I'm not autistic enough to do that damn herculean quest for it but im too autistic to ask discord trannies for help

weapon system was ASS

atmosphere was the absolute fucking best

>>718920050 (OP)
One of my favorite gayming experiences was always puncturing the front line with the Calvarymen so my team could push forward on Operations. I don't know what they did but after a certain patch the Calvary became janky as fuck and trampling/slashing people barely works anymore. They really need to stop listening to retards with patches because every match now is just people camping as sniper, Artillery Tank, or they're bombing people with that attack plane why the fuck did they give the normal biplane a bomb it completely invalidates the bomber plane

>>718930225
Pot calling the kettle black. The Battlefield Discord server is so autistic that they solve all the puzzles for you on-demand 24/7

For me, it's this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Odo7E-PfXtQ

>>718922556
Its too bad you can't see different behemoths on the same map. I remember there's some gigantic megatank on the French map but I haven't seen it in forever because filled servers just play the same three maps

>>718930751
The only behemoth that could work on multiple maps is the airship, and that thing fucking sucks.

>>718930937
Just give the battleship and train little propellers that let them drive through the sky

>>718931069
oh ok

It's really bothersome that every team other than the Turks and Russians look like a United Colors of Benetton add. I couldn't even imagine they would add women to the series just a couple of years later, in a ww2 setting at that

>>718930751
Servers are looking pretty decent on xbox right now

>>718931425
Damn, that ping brother.

>>718931425
Damn. Its sad that this game came out before Crossplay was common since it still has a pretty dedicated player base much like Battlefront 2

>>718930751
I've played some of the apocalypse maps less then a handful of times because of this. Sometimes there's a period where people play the Russian ones but all other maps are basically ignored in favor of the regular ones

I HAVE MONTE GRAPPA FATIGUE

>>718931501
It's just a UI glitch. My ping is fine.

>>718931532
The games are still alive on console because there is no crossplay, PC cheaters ruin everything

>>718931532
Yeah, I really wish the game could get a big Quality of Life update to revitalize the game. EA could add some new $40 expansion to the game as well, touch up some of the graphics, and that would be that.

>>718932147
Cheating isn't that bad on PC.

>>718920258
It doesn't really have any contenders. Honestly, the shittloads of "Yeah but this weapon COULD have existed" sci-fi level experimental guns isn't any worse than the depictions that make the war out to be 100% trench fighting.

>>718932258
Every single time over the years that I've gone back to play a bit of BF1 on a whim, in the first server I load into there is always at least one blatant cheater.

>>718932347
That's fine. I don't even play on PC, I just wanted to disagree with you.

>>718932425
Understandable

>>718920050 (OP)
In hindsight they probably should have given each objective an actual name instead of ancient phonetic alphabet, the words they're using are correct for the time but they sound a bit silly to the modern ear.

>>718932762
People like you are why modern games are devoid of atmosphere

i genuinely may have been the best sniper on this game on xbox, and now getting back to it on PC I'm still getting 60+ kill games sniping only

they absolutely killed sniping in bfv with 45 damage chest shots, and bf6 sniping is just codshit with no bullet drop

>>718932762
right and they should add modern weapons and jet planes and trans soldiers as well right? retarded reasoning

the objectives do have unique names anyway

>>718932762
dumbest post of 2025 award

>>718932850
Thoughts on bf6 sniping?

>>718932762
Each objective HAS an actual name, but they're not going to record dialog for every single one. That's ridiculous.

>>718932762
that's what made it so good.

>>718932762
kek what a joyless fruit

>>718933050
no suppression and the maps are too small so it just feels like cod sniping

>>718932816
>>718932903
>>718933003
If you think commanders issuing orders to frontline troops in WWI labelled their objectives with letters and not map names or notable landmarks then I've got a bridge to sell you, the phonetic alphabet was for spelling words clearly when communicating over telephone equipment with shitty audio quality.

>>718932762
they should have given each country a unique announcer, not just "random bri'ish voice"

>>718932762
Your post unlocked once forgotten memory of some old mod for BF1942 with modern (aka Iraq war at that moment) vehicles and even working heli. On BF1942 maps.

>>718933321
if you dont want to hear ww1 era things dont play a ww1 game mutt

>>718933568
Read, nigger, read, the way the game does objective callouts isn't even remotely WWI.

>>718933331
Daily reminder that there are people who unironically use the male announcer instead of the female announcer.

>>718933862
No shit, but the Apple, Butter, Charlie thing in general is accurate to the time period.

So, would buying Battlefield 1 for PC now just be a waste of money?

>>718934059
And they're used in such a totally wrong and obviously modern way that it actively works against the sense of authenticity that the devs tried so hard to establish with the rest of the game's presentation.

>>718932762
Anon I think the others are missing the point of your post because you phrased seemingly aggressively.

What you want are the flags to have actual names like say on Sinai:
>A = Ottoman Camp
>B = Ruins
>C = Sinai Town
>D = Sinai Station
>E = Ras Al-Kos Omak
>F = British Camp
>G = Lookout 69
...but the characters and announcements and all will still mention their phoenetic alphabet. The names are only flavor text on the map.
Correct?

>>718921886
It’s not really like that. And if you do that you’re a sitting duck after a minute anyways. BF1 has the best class balance of all the games and no one can prove me wrong. Bf2042 the support class doesn’t even get armor plates but assault does LMAO. It’s like playing a game in Bizzaro world compared to BF1

>>718924558
You can gunpeak every angle by aiming and kill just about anyone unless the guy around the corner slide hip fires you. Bf1 is unironically balanced because there’s no laggy movement ruining the gunplay and even cheaters get shit on if you have good aim.

>>718934194
I hope not cause I might get a new pc at the end of this year, and this is one of the games that I want to replay.

>>718934194
Hmm. No there are still a good amount of servers, but the player base gets weirdly low sometimes. I would say it’s the best shooting game to play besides the popular ones

>>718920258
They should make a second BF1.

>>718920258
I prefer to think of it as a WWI adjacent fictional world. I know it's headcannon cope but it's one of my favorite games.

>>718930649
Dangerously based

>>718934892
But you have to use a trench variant to properly clear and pre-aim angles.

>>718921886
For me it's the Benét-Mercié Telescopic. I love laser-beaming people across the screen

>>718936492
I didn't know about that gun existance in the game for a lot of time, kek.

>>718936492
>Benét-Mercié Telescopic

for me? it's the ribby rolls

>>718920258
alternate depiction of WW1 done in a fun arcade way, not boring milsim, but not wolfenstein kind of alt history scifi either.

For me its cavalry with the sabre and getting it inside the ballroom. Racking up kills due to the sheer shock factor of a horse inside.

Its kind of funny how in some ways this feels more like a Battlefield game then BF6. In BF6 I could run around mindlessly on my own and wrack up a good amount of kills but here you'll get your head popped off or die the second you get a kill if you aren't with your teammates

If only It was available to buy from Steam at the time

>>718920258
Ironically for all the shitposting about niggers and jeets they were not as intrusive as expected.

>>718939508
Nah I think they were, it was silly seeing half the team of some games being black, or you do a bayonet charge and you see a black guy staring back speaking german. This wouldve been the perfect game to have some randomization to the character models, there are tons of models in the campaigns that they never even used again so the multiplayer is just armies of clones. If they didnt do this shit the game wouldnt have that smear against it. It just makes the game look goofy at times.

I liked the sweet spot mechanic

I meant compared to how they're plastered all over marketing material, they're not as ubiquitous as initially thought. Hilarious how bongs get 2 minorities in their team compared to other nations getting only 1.
Also curiously enough the woman is on the Imperial team instead of the Commies team (who get a moustachioed Makhno-looking dude instead) in the Russia DLC which comes off weird what with female tendencies to be shitlibs.
It was the start of their fall into DEI hell anyway, an ill omen of what is to come.
>randomization
Fucking Project Reality for BF2 had this, why is this so hard to implement? Just have a pool of ~8 head models and switch them out randomly. If they did that and had say 1 black/jeet in the pool then it would be even more palatable.

>>718940051
>>no proper weapon customization
For a historical game, I understand this choice given the alternative.

>>718940385
i don't want cod vanguard shit, just one weapon you can outfit with the attachments of the game
it's the thing of each gun coming in four versions i don't care for
that setup is confusing and takes up a lot of space

>>718940385
NTA but my favourite way to play was on servers with standard issue rifles enabled, it's almost completely different game. Unfortunately it was rare to find one that didn't also have 200% damage enabled which absolutely fucking kills it.

Thoughts on Achi Baba?

As a pilot, I thought it was one of the best infantry maps, better than passchendaele which seems to be popular but I've always found to blow

Back to basics gamemode
>200% damage
The issue is because of sweet spot, so it is enabled to mitigate the inevitable imbalance, so that everybody can run with whatever rifle they like.

Love when there is a rifles only matches in server list. Rare lately, but genuenly fun when its actual WW1 weaponry in game.
