I wish there was an easy way to report people for their Emblems. I mean look at this shit:
Yeah, the game is infected with Trump supporters and white supremacists; every other game has someone with a Pepe avatar or chanting Trump in the chat.

So since the patch my audio is cutting out constantly, which a google revealed was a beta problem.
Also, I'm sick of empires edge. It's the Golmud railway of bf1 - too big for infantry. And it has less vehicles.

I can safely say after using it for the past couple weeks that the Selbstlader (1916) is hands down the best Medic rifle in the game.
I always see "Mondragon this, Mondragon that," but the Selbstlader renders the Mondragon damn near obsolete. It has the exact same damage and accuracy, except you get 26 bullets per magazine versus the Mondragon's measly 10. This means less time reloading, and more time dropping infantry with 3 bullets at most. Literally the only advantage the Mondragon has (stats-wise) is its ever-so-slightly higher ROF, which is irrelevant since everyone knows you have to pace your shots with these rifles anyways if you want to hit what you're aiming at.
The Selbstlader is just so damn good. If you play Medic and haven't yet tried it, you owe it to yourself to do so. It is a BEAST!

Is it a cruel joke that customising your soldier still doesn't work properly even though you can do it without being in a game now.
It's not showing your class ranks, you can't alter magnification and you can't buy/unlock guns.
Do DICE even test this stuff before patch release ?

wasn't a huge fan of medic until I unlocked the mondragon, now it's my favorite class

They still haven't fixed that stupid spawn mechanic where you just get put in front of an enemy soldier at your flag.

Know what also sucks? It resets your sights/magnification levels/etc. without you even knowing it.
I had to reconfigure a whole bunch of my weapons because of that.
In other words: DO NOT customize your soldier on the main menu! Join an empty server instead!
It's crazy that they can't even get something as basic as this right the first time.
Am I fucking blind or can you STILL not customize vehicles without having to actually spawn in them? So tired of waiting a little while for a tank and having to just go with a bad loadout because you can't actually select what you want without losing the vehicle (sometimes you have to choose different loadouts for different maps).
Why the hell can't you deploy, secure the vehicle, and decide what version you want?
And is it just me or does it take an hour to quit back to the main menu now?

Yup, it's faster to just close the game and relaunch it.

Yeah, this should've been implemented at launch. When you click a tank or plane, that vehicle should be reserved for you for a few seconds so that you can at least pick a loadout without some blueberry instantly stealing it from you.

Man, attacking in Operations feels so much easier now with the extra tickets.
Maybe I just haven't run into a good defense group yet.. but.. wow.
It felt pretty 50/50 to me previously, before the ticket bump.

So today I discovered you can kill multiple players with one Martini bullet. There must have been something in my cereal this morning, cause I managed to do it three times today. First three clips of this Martini Henry gameplay montage:

Yeah, you should have 10-15 seconds to spawn in the vehicle. This only happens sometimes, and not because they're allowing you extra time to customize your loadout.
And my god why can't you customize vehicles when you're spawned in as infantry? Even BF3/4 had that.

Can you give orders from the spawn screen or no?
BF1's performance is unplayably bad for me now on the PC. Not sure if DICE or Nvidia is to blame.
Yeah it's the most frustrating part of the game. Fix that shit.

Seem to be getting server disconnects in operations. 2 games in a row now, never had any prior to patch (ps4 amateur).
The companion app did the same thing. I don't know if it's fixed yet because I uninstalled it afterwards; but good lord it's frustrating.

yea i dont know what they were thinking. Pretty sure they will role back SOME of the changes. They can keep the time to take a flag but reduce the tickets again.

Why is it the Suez map when they clearly show a Map where the Ottoman's aren't in Egypt?

The term for this is collateral
Ive seen it happen a few times in montage videos
what did you do? i tried restarting and nada
shoot flares everywhere
Spawn in someone's plane/tank. Use emplaced guns. Bayonet charge. Spot with flares.
Those are the ways a scout can be useful. Actually firing your primary weapon is frowned upon.
Up to 780 after 2 awesome operations games. 40p, first game as attacker, second as defender. First game as an attacker was just insane how we cut through them. I think the entire operation (both maps) lasted 20 minutes. It was ridiculous. And it wasn't due to the tickets since we had like 100 tickets left at the end of both rounds, not losing a single batallion.
Second as a defender was a lot of fun! Both strong teams, but we also stopped them on the first map. They got to the last sector, but we literally just stopped them at the wall on Ballroom Blitz. Amazing to see how they were trying to get try but we just kicked the shit out of them. Some snipers, some guys like me with a LMG and some assault guys for the close range combat. Awesome!
Got my first ever medal for the LMG's!

Quitting using triangle takes longer than loading the next map then quitting.
It's ridiculous.
I have to force quit pretty much every time I back out now lol (PC). Game just hangs indefinitely.

But theres a 12 page pdf full of fixes!! If they fixed the rest of the stuff the way they "fixed" the quit option, were in for a lot of bugs

I think I've seen more bugs post-patch than before:
Operations taking forever to quit
Randomly getting KIA'd jumping over geometry
Joining an operation, it immediately telling me we have lost the game, allowing me to run around the level like Schrodinger's soldier being killable but unable to shoot my weapons or even respawn once dead
Randomly putting the gas mask on when throwing ammo bags
Being revived yet unable to fire a weapon until I die
Pressing the reload button mid revive animation seems to sometimes put the primary weapon into an animation loop, which doesn't go away even after cycling the weapons (this one was really WTF)

Man, it is amazing how terrible the mortar is now. You have to wait SO long in between shots. :-(
I'm actually considering dropping it all-together for limpet charges or even the repair tool for nearby vehicles/stationary guns. I just can't see myself sticking with the mortar for much longer in this state.

My game is just hanging on the loading screen when I try to quit a match. I have to manually close the .exe in order to quit BF1 now.
I'm surprised they nerfed it in all honesty.. didn't feel OP. When I read the patch notes I was thinking.. welp there goes that.

There's some seriously aggressive skill based matchmaking and team balancing going on in TDM and Domination right now. My friend and I are always stuck with the worst collection of players known to mankind. At first we thought it was bad luck but it hasn't stopped since launch so it's clearly intentional by DICE. I liked how BF4 worked for those modes way better. Much, much more fair.

I'm one of the very few that wanted the mortar nerf.
As an offensive player who likes to cap flags, I often die to mortar more than any other means and sometimes it just feels cheap, as it creates 'how the fuck did I just die?' moments regularly.
I haven't played since the patch due to a plethora of other commitments, but I can't wait to get back in and be less afraid of random mortar deaths.

Super impressed with this game on the Pro. FPS alone is just so much smoother and more consistent across the board.
It is pretty annoying when it happens and I do feel like it's pretty goddamn skill-less. I just die to so much other stuff so much more often that it wasn't ever an issue for me. I think the most you can even do is 65% to infantry? That seems pretty fair to me.
