The last trick, bailing before crashing, you just need to switch to a passenger seat. Crash damage is only buffed for the pilot, so if you switch to a passenger the heli will not explode.
Speaking from experience, it always work on USA scout heli but the Z11 can still explode if the tail touch the ground, it usually explode for me when I switch seats to repair
@@christophersc2038 z11 has a tail that easily touches ground, so if u crash on your side, you will receive damage from the side crash and for the tail hitting the ground, which is why z11 basically receives x2 fall damage than little bird.thanks for coming to my ted talk
Saw another tip in your video, where if you're reviving someone on a hill/slope, revive where the gun/kit is rather than where the body has rolled off to.

Also another cool bit about spawn beacons, you spawn or fly where the flower is pointing. That way you can chose which direction you want to spawn in from.

I knew about the crawl mode, cause I always read all the keybinds when I'm new to a game. But I didn't know that it can be used to crawl over mines and slams. And also that it doesn't teamkill in HC. I thought the crawl mode was useless
ive had over 500hrs in this - yet, only recently I've found out that the "jam" on m16a4 isn't a jammed (I reckonned dirty or broken) mouse button, the game actually requires u to time the bursts perfectly, pls tell me im not the only one
never had that on the m16 or m4 or any burst weapon, except the an94 since it got a delay/cooldown between each burst. died quite a few times cuz of it xD
works like the m16 in pubg as well thats why some people hate it and some love it. the haters spam as fast as possible, and the lovers either have the perfect max trigger finger or understand you just click again as the burst ends
Bit of a sneaky one for those eagle eyed players. When you look at the map often this will specifically apply to you. Basically I'm talking having a third eye on it. When a vehicle, let's say tank is unoccupied, on the map it will appear with a white logo. When occupied a blue or green logo will appear meaning a teammate or squadmate is in the tank. It will disappear on the map when an enemy gets in, but will show a red icon when spotted. When a recon class uses gadgets, this applies soley to TUGS and RADIO BEACON. Potentially applies to other equipment too. When a TUGS or RADIO BEACON is placed into the map at any time, any team, that beacon or tugs will be unassigned a team. For a split second. A fraction of a second later, it will show up like a vechile or other equipment above. Green for squad and till it's spotted it will become red. What people are missing is that fraction of a second it enters the map, gets assigned to the opposition team, then the white icon disappears and goes invisible till spotted and become red. But when is this useful? This is a perfect little trick for back campers/spawners on locker or other tight "1 path" maps. TUGs can be utilized and spotted pretty easily on high population count areas, say C flag on any given map or even an M-COM station. It's about looking out for this stuff because this can make or break the reason why people keep getting A on locker or always know where you are. I'm not saying this makes you better, but it sure is helpful to know a piece of equipment has been placed and can be noted for the ally team. Thanks for coming to my little TED talk
If you place an aa mine and get in either a attack boat, attack heil, or attack jet that has tv missiles if you shoot near the aircraft the mine will trigger and target that aircraft so you have a portable active radar missile Also supply drops from commander does resupply weapons for vechicles
I’m pretty sure the tickets are removed when the game officially registers your death as one that cannot be revived. So dying in a vehicle immediately does that and drops a ticket. But dying as an infantry takes a few seconds until you can no longer be revived. Otherwise each team would lose about 20-30 tickets at the start of a game but you never see that happen.
that tank "crawling" was cool, knew about a few but not that, going to use that from now on, just have to be on the look out for MAV's, so they don't blow me up...
Bf4 definitely holds most of my crazy gaming moments. From insane teleportation glitches in lav and taking on an entire team of armour, to mastering the glitchy movement side of the game and becoming a 1 of 1 god in every server, to figuring out how to use the terrain around me in dogfights or helis to out manoeuvre enemies and absolutely... well yea freak them out but make them uninstall the game. Honestly most games I join now I just mess about with items I havnt used a lot or I go for knifes only mainly because I’ve fallen out with the game a bit because of the type of people in almost every sever, I will either try to be cool or I’ll be talking normally and 5 people will start having a piece of me and just say anything they can think of like telling me I’m crying or complaining when I’m just saying stuff most people will say through frustration about bad parts of the game, and on the occasion I’ll feel incredibly agitated/annoyed one day and I’ll take it out in chat (not on people in chat) and most people just bully you when you do that rather than ask if you are okay, I have a few times had super friendly people that genuinely wanted me to be okay and said maybe I should get off have a cup of tea or do something else because it’s pretty late and that’s well appreciated. It just gets to me more because I’d consider myself apart of the bf4 community since I’ve become so attached to the game, it’s been a big part of my growing up throughout secondary school and now I’m past that part of my life I think maybe when 2042 comes along I should make new beginnings, for the most part anyway.
If you are on a hill with your Tank or APC, just hold the crawl button and it will enable hand brake making your vehicle completely stopped so that it won't keep falling down the hill and you'll be able to shoot without moving
"I hope Battlefield 2042 doesn't have these glitches." Me: Ohhhh but they will, and ppl will find them, exploit them, and piss ppl off like they do in every PvP game 😂
You can just make out a little bonus here on the Apocalypse Now heli easter egg - if you have a gunner, you hear Noob from Battlefield Friends screaming "I'm raining down the fire" (from the mortar episode).
If you're in a helicopter (i dont know if in all of them, but scout helis for sure) and someone locks a stinger or any heatseeker at you, you can simply turn completly sideways to them (it works with 1 side, right or left, i dont quite remember, its been some time since my last bf4 play) you simply dodge the missile, its a glitchy not a feature. Just to be more clear, if the missile will come from your 12 hours (straight front) turn to 3 hours (making like a 90 degree angle with the helicopter cabin and the missile) and it will miss, and im 70% sure its the left side that has to be like that, i reallly dont remeber, but i used this the hell out when there were many stingers on baloon heat seeker pilots
One tip for everyone that I noticed you using in your video but didn't mention it, increasing the size of your mini map. I heard this tip a while ago and utilize this in every game. The amount of detail you can see when it's larger is far superior to a small map. You can tell precisely how many enemies are in the area, their distance from you and direction they're facing. On a small mini map it's just a huge clustered mess. It doesn't take up that much space and there's no reason not to. 👍
Pro tip. Engagement zones Hold back on shooting a target. I go by this common sense for a long time. Why shoot the shot and make yourself spotted to the team... If you can make the kill? So many reasons not to do so. Make your bullets and time alive count. Shooting willy nilly and having targets duck into cover, run around a corner or outpath you in a chase is the worst way to lose a 1v1 and embarrass yourself when you had the jump ON THEM. Knife if you need to knife, desperation knifes get you countered and looking desperate for dog tag hunting or something dumb.
Also if you setup your key bindings to make squad chat the enter key then hold it down over vehicle at spawn screen it will set up little macro that will spam enter and get you into vehicle quickly.
I have been trying to figure out the “Getting out of a vehicle in the direction you are facing” since launch, finally the obvious answer that I’ve been missing for years
Pretty common sense but using the flag status and a heads count on the map for a second can give you a solid answer at how many people are in a flag. For enemy encounters at a flag, that means you are walking into their captured flag and enemies lie within If for example 3 team mates go into a flag radius and the flag still doesn't drop, there is 3 or more people in the flag. If there is an unknown amount of enemies in a flag and 3 team mates walk into the flag zone and it trickles down slowly there are two enemies. This process obviously goes on and on for different head counts and situations
The engineer class can remove any kind of explosive set by an enemy using R Even claymore where you can hold R and step over it while looking at it, doesn't work every time but it has saved me many times
@@DEADEND1961 You can still remove it even after you step on it if you are holding R, you should have a full magazine anyway so running with extra key pushed won't make a difference, I don't hold it all the time but when I move to a popular claymore spot like behind locker's doors I pay attention to explosives
The vehicle bipod trick actually works with all transport vehicles. I found this out years ago. Me and my buddies use bipods on the support chopper all the time. You can do it on atvs, jeeps, rhibs, helis, snowmobiles, anything you can pull out a weapon on.
Pro tip. Account and time reloads when vaulting. The game will glitch when you press reload, then vault over something family quickly after you have pressed the reload button, then after you have finished vaulting a set time? I think? It's like 1 second You will have a full mag back and it cost you nothing
Pretty sure the reload is taking the correct amount of time, it’s just that the animation was disturbed. It was like that on BF3 as well and probably other BF games.
You can fall from any height and so long as you land on a friendly vehicle, you won't take damage. You can also damage enemy vehicles this way and detonate the large fuel tanks by C flag on Firestorm (provided you're at terminal velocity) and it's HILARIOUS
on operation outbreak there is a matryoshka doll sitting on top of one of the hills in the middle of the map only accessible by helicopter/jet....just found it like 2 weeks ago
Thermal camo and smoke is overpowered, you can spam smoke, you cant get spoted after popping smoke for 10 seconds and the 4 seconds of spotting makes it easier to flank enemy tanks
- You can repair your helicopter mid-air. youtube *DOT* com/watch?v=nbw6HOeJASk - You can intercept enemy TV missiles. youtube *DOT* com/watch?v=xbkPZwck-QA - You can kill enemies with motion sensors. When you throw a motion sensor on the ground, it beeps 8 times and then it explodes. That explosion does 1 damage to the enemy. How do you find a stationary enemy that has 1% health? Get the ACE-52 (it's the only weapon available to the recon class that does 33 damage per bullet to the chest), find a camper for example on maps like Golmud, put your ACE 52 in single fire mode, throw the motion sensor at him, then ADS and start counting the beeps. when you hear the 8th beep, quickly put 3 rounds into his back. The 9th beep will immediately kill him. (33x3)+1= 100 = one motion sensor kill.
2:25 This is a bug that could get you banned by fairplay, use it only with LMGs that you played a lot and have low "kill per shot" stat. If you use it on a LMG that you never used before, your KPS stat will be 200%+ and fairplay will ban you automatically. It's a bug so be really careful.
Just a small fun fact. People responsible for helicopter models did a great job but can't say the same about the animators. Most (if not all) US, EU, NATO etc. helicopter's main rotor blades are spinning counter-clockwise and RU clockwise. Models have rotor blades leading and trailing edges placed correctly but all are spinning counter-clockwise. Pure lazines and negligence :]
Jumping out of a heli to unspot will also un-disable it if you get critical hit. You won't be slowed anymore and can get away faster. Also, reviving can happen like 10 meters away or something ridiculous. You don't have to peak to revive someone in the open.
2:10 Do not use this, the bullets you shoote don't count as "shots fired" ,however if you get kills the kills count. This means that fairplay will count your stats as getting kills without shooting, this got me banned and a really nice guy got me unbanned but it was so lucky that he saw my problem. you may not get as lucky so don't do it from the beginning.
Also a tricky one to do but if an enemy shoots a TV missile from a ship at you, they become the missile and if you can shoot the missile with a 40mm in the air they will actually die. Difficult to explain but try it with a Freind if you want!
Right before the match ends around 2 tickets or 1 depends how fast they are bleeding out, but if you spam the deploy button you will be able to run around and shoot your weapon while everyone else is frozen.
Speaking of places dice doesn't want you to go. Pearl Market on Core. Put c4 under bikes in spawn launch your self above the map. The building directly south of C you can get on top of, the build edge on the building south of E and lastly edge of building east of A by US spawn. has to be roof edge. Spawn beacon will fit
You can actually kill people by running into them, it happened to me recently, as i spawned on my friend in HC and we both sprint jumped into each other, i had spawn protection so he just got a 'Teamkill' from me. This can be shown when you roadkill someone with a heli, and the heli will take some damage from the contact.
SOFLAM auto locks onto vehicles instantly on its own in the line of sight you left it looking at. It works as a spotter for vehicles coming out of bases or as a decoy for vehicles that try to look for the lock-on source. Example: Set SOFLAM looking at a base road to wait for an enemy tank and go hide the opposite direction of the SOFLAM. Enemy tank arrives , gets locked-on and they turn to look at the soflam, then you come and plant c4 from the other side. (Soflam)-->
Another thing many people don’t know about is that the game actually has a lean mechanic too. When you are near a corner or crouched behind a piece of cover, your weapon will do a little motion and when you ADS you will do a lean/peak around the corner or over the cover you are behind. It’s really cool and I don’t see anyone use it.
Thanks! Some really good tips here as I didnt know most of them. It now explains the one time my teammate crawling over mines and not exploding while im panicking in the turret trying to spot them lol
You can save a 100% defib for future use by charging to 100%, then switching to your sidearm before discharging the defib. Another cool trick.
Interesting, I never knew this was a thing even after thousands of hours in the game haha will have to try it out

Bit of a scummy glitch but here's one for the console noobs:
When engaging at a medium to long range with either a iron sight-4x scoped base weapon, don't think this works with the rorshk
Use aim to look at the enemy, then when you are firing and lose the target, you will naturally aim back at them and try get more hits. If you zoom out and zoom back in, your aim assist will do a lot of work and magneting for you, this means hitting long range revolver shots can be deadly. This also works a absolute treat for CQC assault rifles you want to engage in long range with in single fire modes.
Aka aim assist?
Most throwable gadgets and nades you can hold in your hand for easier targeting rather than the quick throw.

What about the Instant defib counter to knives? If you’re charging paddles and you get someone to stab you, the paddles will always win.
One other trick I just remembered: when you're in the attack boat and you it gets damaged, you can switch to the passenger seat and repair your boat. What I noticed is that you'll get receive repair points/ribbons even though nobody has taken your driver's seat. It's a good way to get more repair ribbons to unlock more stuff. 👍

Same thing with the m4, I stopped using it for that reason, always thought my controller was messed up
Its a skill weapon
never had that on the m16 or m4 or any burst weapon, except the an94 since it got a delay/cooldown between each burst. died quite a few times cuz of it xD
works like the m16 in pubg as well thats why some people hate it and some love it. the haters spam as fast as possible, and the lovers either have the perfect max trigger finger or understand you just click again as the burst ends
Bit of a sneaky one for those eagle eyed players.
When you look at the map often this will specifically apply to you. Basically I'm talking having a third eye on it.
When a vehicle, let's say tank is unoccupied, on the map it will appear with a white logo. When occupied a blue or green logo will appear meaning a teammate or squadmate is in the tank. It will disappear on the map when an enemy gets in, but will show a red icon when spotted.
When a recon class uses gadgets, this applies soley to TUGS and RADIO BEACON. Potentially applies to other equipment too. When a TUGS or RADIO BEACON is placed into the map at any time, any team, that beacon or tugs will be unassigned a team. For a split second. A fraction of a second later, it will show up like a vechile or other equipment above. Green for squad and till it's spotted it will become red.
What people are missing is that fraction of a second it enters the map, gets assigned to the opposition team, then the white icon disappears and goes invisible till spotted and become red.
But when is this useful? This is a perfect little trick for back campers/spawners on locker or other tight "1 path" maps. TUGs can be utilized and spotted pretty easily on high population count areas, say C flag on any given map or even an M-COM station.
It's about looking out for this stuff because this can make or break the reason why people keep getting A on locker or always know where you are. I'm not saying this makes you better, but it sure is helpful to know a piece of equipment has been placed and can be noted for the ally team.
Thanks for coming to my little TED talk
Thank you
If you place an aa mine and get in either a attack boat, attack heil, or attack jet that has tv missiles if you shoot near the aircraft the mine will trigger and target that aircraft so you have a portable active radar missile
Also supply drops from commander does resupply weapons for vechicles
show me
I have 2000 hours and didn’t know the tank has 3 speeds lmfao
Important note - the smoke screen damage reduction does not work against guided weapons.
1:50 "How can you kill women and children?!" "Its easy you just don't lead them so much!"
lol that chat at 1:48
I’m pretty sure the tickets are removed when the game officially registers your death as one that cannot be revived. So dying in a vehicle immediately does that and drops a ticket. But dying as an infantry takes a few seconds until you can no longer be revived. Otherwise each team would lose about 20-30 tickets at the start of a game but you never see that happen.
that tank "crawling" was cool, knew about a few but not that, going to use that from now on, just have to be on the look out for MAV's, so they don't blow me up...
Do we know how to use the crawl mode for the tank on console? Like which button? I dont see it listed in the options menu
@@Derekva40any info?
Bf4 definitely holds most of my crazy gaming moments. From insane teleportation glitches in lav and taking on an entire team of armour, to mastering the glitchy movement side of the game and becoming a 1 of 1 god in every server, to figuring out how to use the terrain around me in dogfights or helis to out manoeuvre enemies and absolutely... well yea freak them out but make them uninstall the game. Honestly most games I join now I just mess about with items I havnt used a lot or I go for knifes only mainly because I’ve fallen out with the game a bit because of the type of people in almost every sever, I will either try to be cool or I’ll be talking normally and 5 people will start having a piece of me and just say anything they can think of like telling me I’m crying or complaining when I’m just saying stuff most people will say through frustration about bad parts of the game, and on the occasion I’ll feel incredibly agitated/annoyed one day and I’ll take it out in chat (not on people in chat) and most people just bully you when you do that rather than ask if you are okay, I have a few times had super friendly people that genuinely wanted me to be okay and said maybe I should get off have a cup of tea or do something else because it’s pretty late and that’s well appreciated. It just gets to me more because I’d consider myself apart of the bf4 community since I’ve become so attached to the game, it’s been a big part of my growing up throughout secondary school and now I’m past that part of my life I think maybe when 2042 comes along I should make new beginnings, for the most part anyway.
by type of people.. you mean like you, right?? LOL
@@Derekva40 ?
If you are on a hill with your Tank or APC, just hold the crawl button and it will enable hand brake making your vehicle completely stopped so that it won't keep falling down the hill and you'll be able to shoot without moving
I'm not pc so ill never get to have this. But you should be heavily rewarded
@@bozzy8842 i think it might work by holding the crawl button ?!
"I hope Battlefield 2042 doesn't have these glitches."
Me: Ohhhh but they will, and ppl will find them, exploit them, and piss ppl off like they do in every PvP game 😂
I dont think the most are explored. These secrets have been gifted by whistleblowers
You can just make out a little bonus here on the Apocalypse Now heli easter egg - if you have a gunner, you hear Noob from Battlefield Friends screaming "I'm raining down the fire" (from the mortar episode).
If you're in a helicopter (i dont know if in all of them, but scout helis for sure) and someone locks a stinger or any heatseeker at you, you can simply turn completly sideways to them (it works with 1 side, right or left, i dont quite remember, its been some time since my last bf4 play) you simply dodge the missile, its a glitchy not a feature.
Just to be more clear, if the missile will come from your 12 hours (straight front) turn to 3 hours (making like a 90 degree angle with the helicopter cabin and the missile) and it will miss, and im 70% sure its the left side that has to be like that, i reallly dont remeber, but i used this the hell out when there were many stingers on baloon heat seeker pilots
Gonna admit I didn’t know the tank crawl speed or infantry slide thing! Awesome vid mate
7:50 its a lot easier to just switch to your mini guns, instead of aiming away from the target!
Ooh, i was hoping to see the rare melee kill underwater. Not ON water, melee while both soldiers are diving UNDERwater
One tip for everyone that I noticed you using in your video but didn't mention it, increasing the size of your mini map. I heard this tip a while ago and utilize this in every game. The amount of detail you can see when it's larger is far superior to a small map. You can tell precisely how many enemies are in the area, their distance from you and direction they're facing. On a small mini map it's just a huge clustered mess. It doesn't take up that much space and there's no reason not to. 👍
how do you do that?
@@Derekva40 . It should be in the options menu somewhere.
Pro tip.
Engagement zones
Hold back on shooting a target. I go by this common sense for a long time. Why shoot the shot and make yourself spotted to the team... If you can make the kill? So many reasons not to do so. Make your bullets and time alive count.
Shooting willy nilly and having targets duck into cover, run around a corner or outpath you in a chase is the worst way to lose a 1v1 and embarrass yourself when you had the jump ON THEM.
Knife if you need to knife, desperation knifes get you countered and looking desperate for dog tag hunting or something dumb.
Also if you setup your key bindings to make squad chat the enter key then hold it down over vehicle
at spawn screen it will set up little macro that will spam enter and get you into vehicle quickly.
I have been trying to figure out the “Getting out of a vehicle in the direction you are facing” since launch, finally the obvious answer that I’ve been missing for years
That crawl technique in the tank is epic. I can't wait to try it
Pretty common sense but using the flag status and a heads count on the map for a second can give you a solid answer at how many people are in a flag.
For enemy encounters at a flag, that means you are walking into their captured flag and enemies lie within
If for example 3 team mates go into a flag radius and the flag still doesn't drop, there is 3 or more people in the flag.
If there is an unknown amount of enemies in a flag and 3 team mates walk into the flag zone and it trickles down slowly there are two enemies.
This process obviously goes on and on for different head counts and situations
Another hidden thing: Dice's shitty hit detection system that they added back in 2017
The engineer class can remove any kind of explosive set by an enemy using R
Even claymore where you can hold R and step over it while looking at it, doesn't work every time but it has saved me many times
Nice info, but wouldnt help me, because i always realise a claymore, when im already run through it.
@@DEADEND1961 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@DEADEND1961 You can still remove it even after you step on it if you are holding R, you should have a full magazine anyway so running with extra key pushed won't make a difference, I don't hold it all the time but when I move to a popular claymore spot like behind locker's doors I pay attention to explosives
The vehicle bipod trick actually works with all transport vehicles. I found this out years ago. Me and my buddies use bipods on the support chopper all the time. You can do it on atvs, jeeps, rhibs, helis, snowmobiles, anything you can pull out a weapon on.
Pro tip. Account and time reloads when vaulting. The game will glitch when you press reload, then vault over something family quickly after you have pressed the reload button, then after you have finished vaulting a set time? I think? It's like 1 second You will have a full mag back and it cost you nothing
Pretty sure the reload is taking the correct amount of time, it’s just that the animation was disturbed. It was like that on BF3 as well and probably other BF games.
You can fall from any height and so long as you land on a friendly vehicle, you won't take damage. You can also damage enemy vehicles this way and detonate the large fuel tanks by C flag on Firestorm (provided you're at terminal velocity) and it's HILARIOUS
I am a Max level and I didn't know most of these secrets Lol

on operation outbreak there is a matryoshka doll sitting on top of one of the hills in the middle of the map only accessible by helicopter/jet....just found it like 2 weeks ago
Was on the receiving end of someone doing that slither move, confused the hell out of me.
I always thought it was server lag or something lolol
Thermal camo and smoke is overpowered, you can spam smoke, you cant get spoted after popping smoke for 10 seconds and the 4 seconds of spotting makes it easier to flank enemy tanks
I've always wondered how I get flanked in tower, thanks!!
- You can repair your helicopter mid-air. youtube *DOT* com/watch?v=nbw6HOeJASk
- You can intercept enemy TV missiles. youtube *DOT* com/watch?v=xbkPZwck-QA
- You can kill enemies with motion sensors. When you throw a motion sensor on the ground, it beeps 8 times and then it explodes. That explosion does 1 damage to the enemy. How do you find a stationary enemy that has 1% health? Get the ACE-52 (it's the only weapon available to the recon class that does 33 damage per bullet to the chest), find a camper for example on maps like Golmud, put your ACE 52 in single fire mode, throw the motion sensor at him, then ADS and start counting the beeps. when you hear the 8th beep, quickly put 3 rounds into his back. The 9th beep will immediately kill him. (33x3)+1= 100 = one motion sensor kill.
2:25 This is a bug that could get you banned by fairplay, use it only with LMGs that you played a lot and have low "kill per shot" stat.
If you use it on a LMG that you never used before, your KPS stat will be 200%+ and fairplay will ban you automatically.
It's a bug so be really careful.
Nah man in 2042 we're going to be able to ride on walls its going to be awful lmao
Just a small fun fact. People responsible for helicopter models did a great job but can't say the same about the animators. Most (if not all) US, EU, NATO etc. helicopter's main rotor blades are spinning counter-clockwise and RU clockwise. Models have rotor blades leading and trailing edges placed correctly but all are spinning counter-clockwise. Pure lazines and negligence :]
Had no idea about the disembark where you are looking and the unspot on disembark too o.O
A couple of very valuable tips I had no idea of. Thank you.
I have probably almost 2000 hours in here, and I didn't know but maybe half of these lol.
7 years later and still learning new things about this game :D cool video
Jumping out of a heli to unspot will also un-disable it if you get critical hit. You won't be slowed anymore and can get away faster. Also, reviving can happen like 10 meters away or something ridiculous. You don't have to peak to revive someone in the open.
2:10
Do not use this, the bullets you shoote don't count as "shots fired" ,however if you get kills the kills count. This means that fairplay will count your stats as getting kills without shooting, this got me banned and a really nice guy got me unbanned but it was so lucky that he saw my problem. you may not get as lucky so don't do it from the beginning.
absolutely amazing video, not only did i not know about most of these things, but these things are also really useful
Bro, I've been playing it since it came out and I didn't know most of this
Also a tricky one to do but if an enemy shoots a TV missile from a ship at you, they become the missile and if you can shoot the missile with a 40mm in the air they will actually die. Difficult to explain but try it with a Freind if you want!
I've clutched it first time I tried. Top tier bf moment
To add to the one regarding vehicle spawns, you can also hear the audio from said vehicle while hovering over it and no audio if it’s destroyed
Right before the match ends around 2 tickets or 1 depends how fast they are bleeding out, but if you spam the deploy button you will be able to run around and shoot your weapon while everyone else is frozen.
3:36 Jesus Christ what is that
Speaking of places dice doesn't want you to go. Pearl Market on Core. Put c4 under bikes in spawn launch your self above the map. The building directly south of C you can get on top of, the build edge on the building south of E and lastly edge of building east of A by US spawn. has to be roof edge. Spawn beacon will fit
You can actually kill people by running into them, it happened to me recently, as i spawned on my friend in HC and we both sprint jumped into each other, i had spawn protection so he just got a 'Teamkill' from me. This can be shown when you roadkill someone with a heli, and the heli will take some damage from the contact.
SOFLAM auto locks onto vehicles instantly on its own in the line of sight you left it looking at.
It works as a spotter for vehicles coming out of bases or as a decoy for vehicles that try to look for the lock-on source.
Example: Set SOFLAM looking at a base road to wait for an enemy tank and go hide the opposite direction of the SOFLAM.
Enemy tank arrives , gets locked-on and they turn to look at the soflam, then you come and plant c4 from the other side.
(Soflam)-->
Man, I've been playing this game for 5 years and didn't know 90% of these. Thanks!
Great stuff man, thanks for the tips
Another thing many people don’t know about is that the game actually has a lean mechanic too. When you are near a corner or crouched behind a piece of cover, your weapon will do a little motion and when you ADS you will do a lean/peak around the corner or over the cover you are behind. It’s really cool and I don’t see anyone use it.
Also recently learned you can cook grenades
Ok, how?
@@jermasbiggestfan7796 grenade button then hold fire button. I think, I just do it by motor memory at this point.
Put a lot of hours into BF4 and didn’t know a lot of those tips! Thanks!
8:29 What button on (PlayStation) is the Crawl mode for tank's when driving over tank mines?
Is it the same button for driving faster?
Button for prone, whatever that is
Nice wasn't expecting to learn anything new after thousands of hours on this game but I did so well done!
The bipod trick works on heli seats too? That heli clip was extremely accurate for hipfire
No, the M60 ULT just has very tight hipfire that never changes
He has explosive ammo too
Thanks! Some really good tips here as I didnt know most of them. It now explains the one time my teammate crawling over mines and not exploding while im panicking in the turret trying to spot them lol
Haha that second respawn , that guy was like NANI !? OH WE DOIN THIS HUH MAKE A MOVE BRUH 🤣
