medics in this game blow.. i use medic and i revive anyone i see the gets dropped if i can, i keep a pretty good look out. But when i get dropped ill have 3 medics sitting next to me and they just ignore me, its bs.
JPShadow Exactly the same with me, always got to shout at them in chat and they sometimes still don't revive me.. All those COD kids don't play with the team and just want kills.
The important thing is seeing what is going on... If your squad is headed to C but the team is almost captured D, mark D get the points then C... There is more to it then " telling" your squad what to do.. You need to see where your squad is and what they are doing depending on were they spawned and. The flow of battle!
hazzard is life you should see how many times I request an order. Yesterday I played for about 4 hours and kept changing squads to see if I found a squad with a good squad leader. No luck.
I had my entire squad at the top of the leaderboard (I was 4th) because I put a squad order on a zone just before it got capped. 100 points a piece, I got 14,000 points total on St. Quentin
StoneMountain64 in other battlefields my aim is pretty good but in battlefield 1 I have had trouble adjusting to the aim system so can you help me? Or can anyone else give me some tips on improving my aim in the comment section?
StoneMountain64 hey Stone maybe you can enlighten me why in the hell if I shoot someone but dont kill them I get 10pts kill assist but if I spot someone I get 25pts bonus how is seeing someone worth more than hurting them?
+True ps3 gamer I think when you have a spawn point highlighted and you are in the gun menu, it does the dim thing when spawn point is becomes unavailable
I was told, as the round ends, hold down the options button to bring up the scoreboard and hold it until the post game review comes up. Seems to have worked for me so far, as in, after doing it all the post game reviews actually load up.
aaron johnston that's really only if you spawn on a flag or a friend. If it puts you to a safe spot far away it wouldn't count as spawning on a flag or friend,would it?
Hey Stone, shouldn't the title just be "Top 5 Complaints" instead of "Top 5 Worst Complaints"? Including the "worst" sounds like you're making fun of people's complaints. Anyway, totally agreed with a lot of the stuff you said even though I don't own the full game XD
If they start letting people buy battlepacks, I might be done with this game. There would literally be nothing left to work for. THEY NEED MORE PROGRESSION
J Savage Battlepack purchases are scheduled for November the 22nd. Battlefield has always had micro transactions, so don't worry about it. You can buy them if you want, but it won't become pay to win.
You are lvl 3, and you got all weapons. Nothing to play for anymore, yea the lvl 10 weapon but its not that special. and after that you are basicly done lol
StoneMountain64 there definitely needs to be a system to take the squad leader position for yourself. I usually find only 1 or 2 squad leaders per team that actually mark objectives.
I super strongly agree with what you said. I was playing with my friends like "What's the point of leveling up if all you get is warbonds" And the medals are so hard that it's just better to not do them. Another thing. NERF THE STUPID AA. ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO FLY I've been playing since bf3 and I know they listen to the community, so pls help
I swear. BF4 has like more than 50% more guns for each class as compared to bf1. It's my only gripe with BF1. hopefully , they add more (and variations don't count as separate guns)
pretty sure there are waaay more guns in ww1 than in bf1. just because majority of them arent automatic, doesnt mean the bolt action ones shouldnt be included in the game. 'SMH dont you know about ww1?' -_-
I think they struck a good balance with Rush in this one. Part of the reason Rush was so horrendous in BF4 was the 32v32 servers. You can't just up the ticket count to make up for such a clusterfuck of players. BF3 worked great on Rush because of the 12v12 (on consoles at least, don't know player count on PC), also coupled with the fact that map design was better than in 4. That being said, I wouldn't be against them experimenting with larger player counts in Rush. 16v16 I think could still work well without being too overwhelming.
i dont know exactly how well rush works on complete game, my own experience so far had beta where it kinda suck because attacking team had all vehicles and defending team didnt had any. just like bf4 rush ( thats game mode what i play mostly ) some maps there had attackers 5-6 vehicles and defending team nothing atleast thats on console ( i dont know how unbalanced that is on pc )
Biggest complaint: Snipers take 2 shots to kill people. The sweet spots are fucking way too far away on all of the guns to be useful as a sniper. Sniping on bf is basically just shooting across the map from a random rock. What about urban snipers who want to actually play the objectives? All rifles accept the martini henry rifle are literally useless if youre trying to play the objective
I very rarely don't get the highest score for my team. So you noobs who sit miles away from the objective getting headshots, well done for your 5 kills a game. I'm busy capping flags and getting 30 plus kills a game with the only useful scout gun- The Martini henry
michaelq28 they already have the feature, but they disabled it at game launch because it was buggy. They have said they are going to put it in soon so I'd expect it in the next patch
Think about it though : you are a massive company, you need to pay around 10,000 people 20,000 dollars a month and you can't just not pay them so you pay them with money which you get from people buying your stuff so you get them to buy your stuff. you're basically telling people "don't let EA function because they need to pay employees"
Couldn't agree more about the squad leads and squad lock points. On PS4 I spam "Request Orders" and 50% of the time nothing happens. However when they actually do put up an order on a flag I make sure to drop a "Thank You" so they keep them coming. Also, it is very annoying joining a full game of conquest, and seeing 9 different squads, all locked, all filled with 2 to 3 people. It's completely counter intuitive to have so many small squads, and it hurts the overall team performance. Awesome video Stone, keep up the great work!
Yeah..honestly we need to be able to trade our warbonds into scraps or buy battlepacks with warbonds. I'm at level 70 and I don't know what I'm gonna do with my 6k war bonds.
Christofer Bajen same here I only play as medic and I have everything unlocked in the class and I have like 3k warbonds I don't know what to do with them.
MrClone655 lol yes ofc I know that..but I now noticed that I wrote that we need to buy them with scraps, haha I mean that we should be able to buy battlepacks with warbonds. now corrected. :)
I'm sick of sniper glint on EVERYTHING. No matter what the 'dynamic' weather. It could be pissing it down, fog everywhere and face down in mud yet still have a glint? Or in dark buildings, like how is light even reflecting off the scope??? Needs fixing.
I'm shooting blanks Guys I agree, and I don't understand why sniper glint is even a thing! It was put into Halo 5 as well and I just don't get it. What's the point in being a sniper when there's practically a beacon signalling where you are when you're scoped in, which is a lot of the time, it ruins one of the main things snipers have going for them, the element of surprise. It wasn't in previous battlefield/Halo games and people still managed to find and kill you if you didn't keep moving. Unless I'm missing something here, I just don't get it.
so you wanna go prone in a sand dune sniping and locked solo squading, without a chance of you getting spotted? because of guys like you bf1 is unplayable right now. pls sell it and delete your origin acc.
actually I've only played the beta... But i will admit when i wrote that comment i wasn't thinking about the difference in scale between the other BF games and 1 so... my bad xD
We should be able to name squads... Even if it includes profanity, after all, the game is rated 18. Keep the squad names that the game sets, but I'd love it if I could make a squad and name it "We actually play the fucking objective" squad This would very simply tell other players that share the same interest, that I'd be marking objectives to capture.
Please give the British 4 chances to attack on the Oil of Empires operation like it says it's supposed to have. Me and my friends have yet to win as the attackers on it no matter how hard we try, feels heavily biased toward the defense.
Whishywashy I think they need to fix everything in operations. It's only fun when your defending. They should fix this by either giving the attacking team more troop lives or every map we progress out amount of tries we have restarts. For example you only have a total of three tries in kaiserschlat for both maps played. I think there should be three for each map. So once we get to Amiens we get three tries, or even two would be fine. It would give the attacking side more of a chance
Coming from a 'veteran' who doesn't play vehicles, I think tanks, etc are fine right now. The whole point of vehicles is to provide an advantage. If you and 1 teammate can kill a good tank driver in an open field, there is something wrong. The best infantry players know when to run and hide in a corner. If anything, some of the vehicles are underpowered. The fighter plane is objectively worse than the attack plane, there is no real reason to choose the artillery truck over a light tank unless you're bored. Hell, maybe even buff the heavy tank and the landship!
Young Jesus i kinda disagree with some points. The artillery truck and light tank have different roles (obviously). I prefer the anti air variant to keep planes out of the sky. They all have their uses
Artillery truck is way too powerful, has more health/armor than a light tank and has the MG on top. All I see is one prick camping in it going 100-0. I can't destroy it either because they're too strong it took me 2 AT nades, 1 light AT nade, and 2 rocket gun shots, and by that time they've driven off and repaired, or killed you... They are untouchable.
I feel like i'm able to 'solo' heavy tanks pretty often even with how powerful they currently are. Most of the time any friendly snipers in the area will throw a few K bullets at it while i chuck my AT nades and fire my rocket gun. If anything they need more design behind the weak spots, I can't really seem to see much of a difference between the supposed weak spots and the rest of the vehicle other than with the light tank. Maybe dynamite is supposed to be used on heavy tanks since the weak spot would be underneath? I wouldn't know since i never use dynamite :/
you are absolutely correct stone! I love this game, but I don't feel like im accomplishing anything but a win/stat at the end of the game. Bf4 6 Service stars in a round a metal and tons of ribbons. IT FELT LIKE I WAS DOING THINGS! lol BF1 is none the less amazing though. just needs a little work!
Great video! This highlights most of the problems I have with bf1. On xbox I'm level 25 and have most of the things unlocked... I hope the things you spoke about get fixed!
Well said man It's true that you just get the battlepack for playing the full game. There's no rewards for the people that plays the objectives. And also the medals are hard to get and they don't give you a reward good enough. It's a great idea that they give you Battlepacks or something for it. Although I (and lots of people I have heard) am having so much problems with the medal system, they randomly change to the last week medals. Thanks for these great videos :D
loved the vid, very good point! you should make a video of top 5 or 10 "only in battlefield moments" because thats what really makes battlefields special.
COULD NOT AGREE WITH YOU MORE on the squads point, especially leader steal and comms. Another point you didn't touch upon is that spotting is so much harder to achieve than in bf4. Reloading grenades from ammo packs is much better however to finish on a positive. Love your vids glad you're doing them full time now, good for you 👍
im with all of this, also to add on ps4 , theres many of squad glitch,. constantly im stuck out of even able to make my own to score the points.. i hope they listen.. you are our only hope
good video, just subscribed. played every bf since bf1942 (well, except Hardline). I bought this and uninstalled after 4 days. I miss good old engineer gameplay and variety. went back to bf4 and was grinning right away. I think the problem is mostly related to era. I got bored very quickly in bf1 even when playing the objective hard.
Joe Cospito I thought this game was just me. I got into the game at Bad Company 1. This game sucks for the short answer, I would play if there where guns. I liked BF4 because I was always unlocking stuff, but in this game.....
Joe Cospito i still have it, but i aint touchin it, the only reason this game is still alive is because of hype, however the gane has 37% less players than it did at launch
7:36 HAD ME CRACKING UP! Love ya, Stone! Regarding the squad system, I totally agree that it needs some work for this team focused game. For the first time, I'm playing a bf on console, and everyone is a lone wolf using the squad system for mobile spawn points. I'd wish the squad leader had two important functions in the squad creation. 1) The ability to rename the squad. Then I could be able to rename it to something like "Teamwork-squad" or "VOIP-suad" or whatever, and hence, encouraging teamwork. 2) The ability to kick squad members as the leader. Maybe this is possible? Idk, I have not focused a lot on the squad system (other than using it as a mobile spawn point, lol, I'm a hypocrite) so you might be able to, but if not, it needs to be implemented to kick people not cooperating and snipers hanging out by a rock 300m from the action.
i did a tip video series with them when the game launched you are likely referring too :) I am free to say what i like about the game though, and BF has been great about listening to the community so i give the feedback
THANK YOU for the bonus on squad size. holy shit this is the worst oversight i've seen in some time. how does this not come out in internal playtesting?!?!?!?
I totally agree about the medals. I just reached level 70 on the xb1, and unless I can earn a medal with my regular play-style, the medals go on ignored. Too little xp and no new unlocks make it not worth the extra effort to get them.
My only complaint is that the game is only fun for about a week or so and then it gets old FAST. It has no long lasting fun factor like other BF titles. I'm already back to playing BF4 and BF3.
100% agree on the medals and the revives being only 50 points and the lack of balance on the points in the various game modes, that's why i rarely play TDM or pigeons.
strongly agree with the boring progression and attachments. i would have been happier with just a much smaller number of base weapons but then being able to tweak various parts of the weapons (barrel, receiver, stock, foregrip, whatever) for much more variety with the way they work (more than just 3 variants per weapon). I missed the meta strategy in BF3 and BF4 where you get to decide which aspects of your weapon to improve or sacrifice. Each weapon back in BF3/BF4 then could have a dozen 'variants' depending on the combination of modifications you chose, with each modification having both pros and cons. I miss that the most, even though BF1 does have the best core FPS gameplay
I definitely agree with the revive points. I main as a medic and actually like reviving for the sake of doing it but still would like more points for it.
i dont play for dumb medals,points and all that shit that was not in old days,when people had fun with pure gameplay .crying about batllepacks and that shit .ugh that cod generation.how many weapons had Enemy Territory
Wtf do you mean tanks should be over powered? Tanks in ww1 were nothing like the ones in game. They were way slower and definitely wouldn't be able to launch shells as far as they can.
I hope they add more levels and weapons in future DLC's and maybe a battlepack per level like you mentioned, and it is really grindy, you need SOOO much XP to level up
This is all exactly right, without earning anything from levelling up I'm finding it harder and harder to find the motivation to play on my own anymore, battlefield use to be all about the vast majority of of weapons and attachments, I mean it's still a magnificent game, I enjoy getting online with my mates and screaming so much Beacuse I'm having a good ol time, but yeah I don't know how they would fix this but I really hope they do something about it.
Cody Antonie well in the older Battlefield games there were fewer weapons compared to BF4 and also no weapon customization at all but quite a lot people still play them till now
tbh I couldn't give a shit if they did away with all the perks rewards etc... who looks at your camo on your gun... keep yer day glo camo for fast paced shooters like COD. I play games for the gameplay and fun ...I couldn't care less about rewards. If thats what bothers you then play something that does feed your seperiority fettish. I don't need to look at a KD ratio or wonder how well I did in a table compared to everyone else. I just wanna play the game and have some fun. It's a personal thing maybe but I don't need a gold star or someone to reward me little some little kid.
Oh my god thank you why do people crave that "reward" its like fucking candy crush on a bigger scale Jesus Christ go play cod, I play BF1 for the crazy battlefield moments and great team/objective gameplay not a fucking neon skin like cod
Good to know I'm not the only one who plays games for what they were meant for ...respect.. I was begining to think I was some sort of relic for thinking that way. Glad I'm not. I'm an Old Skool gamer, mature and not in constant need to have my ego massaged. I think the gaming industry is breeding an army of insecure kids and young adults who constantly need some reward or praise to boost their confidence. Just play and have fun and don't get too wound up if your on the losing side. Everyone wants to be a winner at all costs nowaday even if it means cheating. SAD
I'm not against perks or customisation but it really shouldn't be a deal breaker whether a game is good or bad. Yeah perks, and little rewards or things to aim for are nice but shouldn't detract from the main reasons for buying and playing a game. Like I said I couldn't give a shit, I know people do like these things and I'm sure lots would still buy a game if it was good and didn't have these things. I just hate when some people complain about the GAME itself because it hasn't got a particular digital gun or colour scheme or whatever that doesn't actually have any bearing on the game itself. Yes customization is good...it's just an extra little add-on and shouldn't have so much importance placed on it.
I agree with everything you said. The medal system is pointless like you said and the points in conquest are hurting the game mode. No one defends anymore. I can't tell you how many times I capture and objective with so many people and then they all run back to the other objective getting capped that our team just capped. And then it just keeps happening over and over. So annoying
There is also the fact that joining on a friend that is already playing in a full squad leaves you alone without the possibility to join another squad OR creating a new one. And that until someone frees a spot for you. This wouldn't be such a problem if we had a "Friends" section in the server browser.
lol "Medals are not lit" gave me a laugh, but not as much as "and then you yell so much you poop a little..." XD Not to mention I agree with everything, although I'd never thought about those issues with squads before.
The reason Flags gives so much point is to encourage people to capture them and because DICE have seen that people just cares about points rather than winning they made flags give a lot of points. This is actually a good thing. Team DM can go and die as Battlefield is for large warfare. So in previous Battlefield games I haven't seen people run for the flags all that often. In BF1 the flags are taken over A LOT and the combat moves around the entire map a few times over in a well balanced fight. It's honestly a good thing for Battlefield to do this. I hope they encourage more teamwork behavior with extra points so that people will do those more.
As someone in the top 1% for revives, I'd love a 50 point boost for them. I'd also appreciate the squad leader kick, better battlepack unlocks, and a better progression system. All good points.
been having a game breaking issue on ps4, I can't finish a game of conquest without bring kicked off the server, it's not an internet issue, my games aren't laggy while playing, any know how to fix this?
yeah, agreed on just about all points. I've to $10,000 in War Bonds just sitting around. Gold battletags are cool and changing my play style to complete medals is a good change of pace, but I would love something more, a battlepack or more XP or skins, I dunno. I rock a mean barrage bomber, 1 stage of a medal is like 1 heavy tank kill (with a full crew inside) in XP. I've always been a conquest player over other modes, but I know watchu mean. was quite disappointed at the end of round in other modes seeing the most any got was like, 5kxp - though it kinda evens out cause a CQ match goes for about half an hour. yeah squads are so annoying - luckily I tend to get promoted or auto balanced into being squad leader (I kick people who suck). YES - medics need more incentive to revive - or players need more incentive to play as medics. bla bla bla. good work man, see you in the battlefield.
In regards to the medals: They're fairly easy to complete if you focus on them in a few domination matches. The challenge for me in completing medals is that I get maybe 2 1/2 days out of 7 to earn towards medals because they're constantly bugging out and reverting to the previous week's medals or just being completely empty/not presenting any medals to choose. Joining a game in any mode seems to present any patterns either. full shut down and restart only sometimes works too so.... yea medals need work. this is on Xbox one to be clear
Btw your making some good Points in this vid, im getting bored allready. The thing about conquest and capture the flags, some people get like 15-20k since the camp the tanks and all they do is capture. While us other idiots try to defend ect ect
Stone, one of my biggest complaints is that at the end of a round, the game doesn't automatically scroll to my name on the scoreboard. May just be the PS4 platform but it bugs the crap out of me, especially because it feels glitchy when I scroll between pages at the end of the round.
I totally understand the bit about the medals, I love lmg's but when I have those medals sitting there I feel really restricted because I want to get them done before they reset each week thus blocking me from playing the game my own way...
Here's what I think, if ur a squad leader you should be able to communicate with the other squad leaders to coordinate bigger scale attacks and you should also be able to chat with people in your vehicle
Just open squad size to be any size. I play with my platoon and let me tell you it is so frustrating not being able to keep at least 12 of us on one team. Just open up the size of squads when you bring back the platoon system and the game will become so much better
My biggest complaint is in line with #1 and #2 on the list -- once you hit about level 50, you can get to level 10 on all classes and there's basically nothing left. Once you hit level 25-ish you've purchased most of the weapons you want. There's nothing left to work for in the game, it's just all open for you. They needed to cap certain things so you couldn't purchase them until a certain point, like you had to work through buying and using other weapons before you could get to the scoped version of the rifle. Meaning snipers would have to use non-scoped versions to unlock and be able to buy scoped versions. There's literally no point in playing some of the weapons in this game because you can't make them better by playing them and unlocking other features. It should have been a progression tree within a rifle, and not a separate rifle on the list. I think they did it the way they did to make it seem like there are more weapons in the game than there actually are because there's really only about 5 guns per class. But I would have much preferred having to work to unlock features than be able to buy the gun I want within a few hours of playing the game. Now that I'm level 65, I'm really only playing the game because it's fun and not because I'm trying to unlock something. The longevity is in question though. With BF 4, I was a level 125 and still hadn't unlocked all the weapons, and not even close to all the attachments for all the weapons. That's what you need in order to maintain the funness of a game over a long period of time. And with the announcement there won't be another BF game for 2 years, this one might get old quick if there's nothing left to do. Hopefully they adjust things with future content packs. When I get a gun, I want to have to work for stuff and make the gun better or custom to me. Moreover, I hate the point system in this version of BF. You get way too many points for capturing a point and too few points for kills. I can spend an entire match keeping and defending a single point, go 30-5, and finish in the middle of the pack below people with a negative K/D ration. That's stupid. Defending points is just as important as capturing new ones but you're not rewarded the same. I find myself letting the enemy capture the point I'm defending just so I can take it back to get the 500 points.
U should get a battle pack at every level you gain
by the time they implement this I'll be at the max level
Agreed, like in BF4
matias celaj yeah
matias celaj you would get way too many
Too late for that, sorry
medics in this game blow.. i use medic and i revive anyone i see the gets dropped if i can, i keep a pretty good look out. But when i get dropped ill have 3 medics sitting next to me and they just ignore me, its bs.
JPShadow same here, way too frustrating. I'm with that 1% of medics that actually revive. Reviving got me to rank 10 on medic.
Medic is a op class but it's not used that much. I played 1 match with no medic and its hell.
JPShadow Exactly the same with me, always got to shout at them in chat and they sometimes still don't revive me.. All those COD kids don't play with the team and just want kills.
JPShadow sometimes your body glitches out for them so for them your body is across the map and for you it's right in front of them
IKR? I remember reviving a medic, then I died right after reviving him, and he just ran away.
Yes the squad leader is the most frustrating thing ever. Seems like no one on PS4 knows how to mark objectives. You lose out on so many points.
Swavey agreed! I wish I could just take it away!!
Swavey i only mark when the people want a order
Swavey I myself always mark objectives but none of squad does jack shit.
The important thing is seeing what is going on... If your squad is headed to C but the team is almost captured D, mark D get the points then C... There is more to it then " telling" your squad what to do.. You need to see where your squad is and what they are doing depending on were they spawned and. The flow of battle!
hazzard is life you should see how many times I request an order. Yesterday I played for about 4 hours and kept changing squads to see if I found a squad with a good squad leader. No luck.
I had my entire squad at the top of the leaderboard (I was 4th) because I put a squad order on a zone just before it got capped. 100 points a piece, I got 14,000 points total on St. Quentin
Cannibal Sausage ok?
Cannibal Sausage I got 20k points one time 😒😒😒
Cannibal Sausage i got over 25k points before
yea using the squad orders will definitely bring your whole squad up fast!
StoneMountain64 in other battlefields my aim is pretty good but in battlefield 1 I have had trouble adjusting to the aim system so can you help me? Or can anyone else give me some tips on improving my aim in the comment section?
stonemountain best commentarys on whole UA-cam! i love it
StoneMountain64 i did not expect you to reply me! dude this is awesome
Stone how u give video on top 5 kills ? Have a video
StoneMountain64 hey Stone maybe you can enlighten me why in the hell if I shoot someone but dont kill them I get 10pts kill assist but if I spot someone I get 25pts bonus how is seeing someone worth more than hurting them?
That stupid menu glitch pisses me off. Where you'll be reading about a gun's stats and it'll just dim out and not move.
Just press B / Circle and it should work ( I think)
+Myqii It keeps happening in random intervals though. You'll press b but then after a few seconds it'll happen again. Extremely annoying.
I cant figure out what causes it, its so annoying.
+True ps3 gamer I think when you have a spawn point highlighted and you are in the gun menu, it does the dim thing when spawn point is becomes unavailable
+Jen R I believe that's it. I think if you highlight the team spawn point, since it's always available, the dim glitch won't happen
I hate not being able to leave the game between rounds, you get like 5 seconds to leave, I have no time to review the match if I want to leave.
I was told, as the round ends, hold down the options button to bring up the scoreboard and hold it until the post game review comes up. Seems to have worked for me so far, as in, after doing it all the post game reviews actually load up.
on pc too, kaylan
Yeah I hate this. Often times I just give up and alt+f4.
TheUnoriginalGamer this isn't call of duty
Jordan Smith what has this to do with call of duty?
We need night maps.
Nathan Bowie Yes!
Nathan Bowie Dark night maps are going to be hell with the smg's.
It would break the monotony to add a night map every once in awhile
But im talking full moon night map so not super dark
Nathan Bowie OR BETTER YET A DAY AND NIGHT CYCLE
The spawns in this game are awful, sometimes you spawn right infront of enemys
aaron johnston that's really only if you spawn on a flag or a friend. If it puts you to a safe spot far away it wouldn't count as spawning on a flag or friend,would it?
Hey Stone, shouldn't the title just be "Top 5 Complaints" instead of "Top 5 Worst Complaints"? Including the "worst" sounds like you're making fun of people's complaints. Anyway, totally agreed with a lot of the stuff you said even though I don't own the full game XD
BigE1293 how does one not own a full game?
From the title I was expecting....WORST complaints as in nitpicky whiny things people complain about the game.
Probably trial or without DLC? Anyways, there are complaints to BF1 that are just straight up dumb.
maybe he has the standalone version, not the deluxe or the pack that has the season pass.
when I saw "Worst complaints" I thought it was going to be complaining that don't make sense
Dalton Krcelic same :D
I just realized how bad my grammar was...*compaits
If they start letting people buy battlepacks, I might be done with this game. There would literally be nothing left to work for. THEY NEED MORE PROGRESSION
J Savage Battlepack purchases are scheduled for November the 22nd. Battlefield has always had micro transactions, so don't worry about it. You can buy them if you want, but it won't become pay to win.
You are lvl 3, and you got all weapons. Nothing to play for anymore, yea the lvl 10 weapon but its not that special. and after that you are basicly done lol
Well.... This is the most honest and reliable video I've ever seen. I agree with literally EVERYTHING you said
same here
really appreciate the feedback, been a while since i did a video like it
StoneMountain64 there definitely needs to be a system to take the squad leader position for yourself. I usually find only 1 or 2 squad leaders per team that actually mark objectives.
Anyone not being able to aim or shoot after being revived
Sometimes, but it only lasts like 10 seconds
James L switch between little gun and back to big gun, works Everytime
Jyoti Sidhu or throw a grenade (it's a bit quicker)
If you aren't killed in the meantime :)
James L right, yes that's one of the bug they should fix
I super strongly agree with what you said.
I was playing with my friends like "What's the point of leveling up if all you get is warbonds"
And the medals are so hard that it's just better to not do them.
Another thing. NERF THE STUPID AA. ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO FLY
I've been playing since bf3 and I know they listen to the community, so pls help
Eliel203 they listen to the community but take far too long to implement change
The AA is right smack dab in the open and anyone can kill whoever is shooting it.
Eliel203 hell no if they nerf something it goes from being good to being ass and nobody uses it no more
AA artillery truck ftw
I swear. BF4 has like more than 50% more guns for each class as compared to bf1. It's my only gripe with BF1. hopefully , they add more (and variations don't count as separate guns)
leolionhunt it's because there's more guns now than there were back then smh don't you know about ww1?
pretty sure there are waaay more guns in ww1 than in bf1. just because majority of them arent automatic, doesnt mean the bolt action ones shouldnt be included in the game. 'SMH dont you know about ww1?' -_-
Harry A. Ness go on the interweb and check all guns enlisted in ww1
leolionhunt more like 500%. theres only about 19 unique guns compared to like 136 in bf4
William Godfrey and som who wher never even used. Like the hellriegel
An operations or Rush game mode without behemoths would be nice.
Also make Rush 16v16 or 20v20
I think they struck a good balance with Rush in this one. Part of the reason Rush was so horrendous in BF4 was the 32v32 servers. You can't just up the ticket count to make up for such a clusterfuck of players. BF3 worked great on Rush because of the 12v12 (on consoles at least, don't know player count on PC), also coupled with the fact that map design was better than in 4.
That being said, I wouldn't be against them experimenting with larger player counts in Rush. 16v16 I think could still work well without being too overwhelming.
yeah but the behemoths make it more intense but a break would be nice
Jimmy Bob360
After the 1st time it's not intense
i dont know exactly how well rush works on complete game, my own experience so far had beta where it kinda suck because attacking team had all vehicles and defending team didnt had any. just like bf4 rush ( thats game mode what i play mostly ) some maps there had attackers 5-6 vehicles and defending team nothing atleast thats on console ( i dont know how unbalanced that is on pc )
Biggest complaint: Snipers take 2 shots to kill people. The sweet spots are fucking way too far away on all of the guns to be useful as a sniper. Sniping on bf is basically just shooting across the map from a random rock. What about urban snipers who want to actually play the objectives? All rifles accept the martini henry rifle are literally useless if youre trying to play the objective
If it was easier to 1 shot kill with snipers it would suck. You would just run out and get destroyed.
james grainger cod player
james grainger Git gud and actually learn how to snipe in bf.
Mr. Eugene Krabs he probably didnt played with the first sniper u get or he just sucks at bf1 xD
I very rarely don't get the highest score for my team. So you noobs who sit miles away from the objective getting headshots, well done for your 5 kills a game. I'm busy capping flags and getting 30 plus kills a game with the only useful scout gun- The Martini henry
#6-Being able to customize your load out from the main menu
PREACH
michaelq28 they already have the feature, but they disabled it at game launch because it was buggy. They have said they are going to put it in soon so I'd expect it in the next patch
YES WHY THE FUCK ISN'T THIS AN OPTION
nmp lol just completely ignore what I said I guess ..
Bacon Is Goat Ahhh nice thanks
Anyone else spawn in as a tank or horse but spawn in with out it and your just the driver with out your vehicle?
theVulture and Kaiju yep! nothing like saying please kill me know!
Happens with the horse all the time and I'm left with a gun I don't like ;-;
theVulture and Kaiju
or you get your tank, but you're calvary, or medic so you can't repair
theVulture and Kaiju same here bro. Know the feeling
***** Have that bug 1 or 2
just hope people are not going to give Ea what they want and spend real money on battlepacks and encourage them to keep on scamming everyone
Think about it though : you are a massive company, you need to pay around 10,000 people 20,000 dollars a month and you can't just not pay them so you pay them with money which you get from people buying your stuff so you get them to buy your stuff. you're basically telling people "don't let EA function because they need to pay employees"
Caron Ethan Boyle i mean.. why not? if you dont want to buy them.. then just dont but them.. the people who want to buy can.. it makes profit..
How are we getting scammed? Personally I would love to buy battlepacks since they are completely cosmetic.
Ofcourse they will
Couldn't agree more about the squad leads and squad lock points. On PS4 I spam "Request Orders" and 50% of the time nothing happens. However when they actually do put up an order on a flag I make sure to drop a "Thank You" so they keep them coming.
Also, it is very annoying joining a full game of conquest, and seeing 9 different squads, all locked, all filled with 2 to 3 people. It's completely counter intuitive to have so many small squads, and it hurts the overall team performance.
Awesome video Stone, keep up the great work!
Yeah..honestly we need to be able to trade our warbonds into scraps or buy battlepacks with warbonds. I'm at level 70 and I don't know what I'm gonna do with my 6k war bonds.
Christofer Bajen same here I only play as medic and I have everything unlocked in the class and I have like 3k warbonds I don't know what to do with them.
You do know you can buy battlepacks with scraps right?
MrClone655 yup ,I usually scrap most of the things I get.
MrClone655 lol yes ofc I know that..but I now noticed that I wrote that we need to buy them with scraps, haha I mean that we should be able to buy battlepacks with warbonds. now corrected. :)
Christofer Bajen
Haha just an innocent typo. All good man.
I'm sick of sniper glint on EVERYTHING. No matter what the 'dynamic' weather. It could be pissing it down, fog everywhere and face down in mud yet still have a glint? Or in dark buildings, like how is light even reflecting off the scope??? Needs fixing.
I'm shooting blanks Guys I agree, and I don't understand why sniper glint is even a thing! It was put into Halo 5 as well and I just don't get it. What's the point in being a sniper when there's practically a beacon signalling where you are when you're scoped in, which is a lot of the time, it ruins one of the main things snipers have going for them, the element of surprise. It wasn't in previous battlefield/Halo games and people still managed to find and kill you if you didn't keep moving. Unless I'm missing something here, I just don't get it.
I'm shooting blanks Guys hahah salty snipers get good lmao
so you wanna go prone in a sand dune sniping and locked solo squading, without a chance of you getting spotted? because of guys like you bf1 is unplayable right now. pls sell it and delete your origin acc.
actually I've only played the beta... But i will admit when i wrote that comment i wasn't thinking about the difference in scale between the other BF games and 1 so... my bad xD
I'm shooting blanks Guys idk what you're talking about. On PS4 or for me personally there's no glint at all when it's raining
We should be able to name squads... Even if it includes profanity, after all, the game is rated 18.
Keep the squad names that the game sets, but I'd love it if I could make a squad and name it "We actually play the fucking objective" squad
This would very simply tell other players that share the same interest, that I'd be marking objectives to capture.
Kane Holmes Yeah so the noobs who only camps can be for themselves.
Please give the British 4 chances to attack on the Oil of Empires operation like it says it's supposed to have. Me and my friends have yet to win as the attackers on it no matter how hard we try, feels heavily biased toward the defense.
Ikr
Whishywashy I think they need to fix everything in operations. It's only fun when your defending. They should fix this by either giving the attacking team more troop lives or every map we progress out amount of tries we have restarts. For example you only have a total of three tries in kaiserschlat for both maps played. I think there should be three for each map. So once we get to Amiens we get three tries, or even two would be fine. It would give the attacking side more of a chance
Coming from a 'veteran' who doesn't play vehicles, I think tanks, etc are fine right now. The whole point of vehicles is to provide an advantage. If you and 1 teammate can kill a good tank driver in an open field, there is something wrong. The best infantry players know when to run and hide in a corner. If anything, some of the vehicles are underpowered. The fighter plane is objectively worse than the attack plane, there is no real reason to choose the artillery truck over a light tank unless you're bored. Hell, maybe even buff the heavy tank and the landship!
Young Jesus i kinda disagree with some points. The artillery truck and light tank have different roles (obviously). I prefer the anti air variant to keep planes out of the sky. They all have their uses
Dude use F1 and shit to switch between the guns
Artillery truck is way too powerful, has more health/armor than a light tank and has the MG on top. All I see is one prick camping in it going 100-0. I can't destroy it either because they're too strong it took me 2 AT nades, 1 light AT nade, and 2 rocket gun shots, and by that time they've driven off and repaired, or killed you... They are untouchable.
I feel like i'm able to 'solo' heavy tanks pretty often even with how powerful they currently are. Most of the time any friendly snipers in the area will throw a few K bullets at it while i chuck my AT nades and fire my rocket gun. If anything they need more design behind the weak spots, I can't really seem to see much of a difference between the supposed weak spots and the rest of the vehicle other than with the light tank. Maybe dynamite is supposed to be used on heavy tanks since the weak spot would be underneath? I wouldn't know since i never use dynamite :/
I agree with all of these points, as well as levelcaps. Hopefully Dice will watch these and address the issues brought up. :)
you are absolutely correct stone! I love this game, but I don't feel like im accomplishing anything but a win/stat at the end of the game. Bf4 6 Service stars in a round a metal and tons of ribbons. IT FELT LIKE I WAS DOING THINGS! lol BF1 is none the less amazing though. just needs a little work!
Great video! This highlights most of the problems I have with bf1. On xbox I'm level 25 and have most of the things unlocked... I hope the things you spoke about get fixed!
Extremely fair criticisms stone 😃
are u on playstation?
Well said man
It's true that you just get the battlepack for playing the full game. There's no rewards for the people that plays the objectives. And also the medals are hard to get and they don't give you a reward good enough. It's a great idea that they give you Battlepacks or something for it. Although I (and lots of people I have heard) am having so much problems with the medal system, they randomly change to the last week medals.
Thanks for these great videos :D
in 12v12 modes they should have 6 people per squad
Or at least 3 squads of 4. Makes no sense to have 5 person squads, I agree with you, that needs to be changed.
loved the vid, very good point! you should make a video of top 5 or 10 "only in battlefield moments" because thats what really makes battlefields special.
Cough..... cough.....people wanting support class buffed ......cough...... cough ....
Hel Lo They don't need to be buffed if supports do their fucking jobs.
horrible guns even tap firing they amiss 65% of the time
I mainly play support, the tap firing isn't that great. I only do it if they're far away and with very little health.
NO. IM TIRED OF BEING SPRAYED DOWN THE HALLWAYS ON BALLROOM
Hel Lo I'll be honest. I play support and I've gotten insane amount of kills. Maybe 10 or more in a life. I don't get what's the complain of people
COULD NOT AGREE WITH YOU MORE on the squads point, especially leader steal and comms. Another point you didn't touch upon is that spotting is so much harder to achieve than in bf4. Reloading grenades from ammo packs is much better however to finish on a positive. Love your vids glad you're doing them full time now, good for you 👍
That moment when your realize Battlefront did progression better than Bf1...
im with all of this, also to add on ps4 , theres many of squad glitch,. constantly im stuck out of even able to make my own to score the points..
i hope they listen.. you are our only hope
stonemountain64 y no snow maps yet?! after trying battlefront for ah bit Iv been wanting to see snow maps on bf1 and have it snowing on are guns
dominick jasso wait for the Russian dlc maybe,most battles in Wars don't take place in winter,and Battlefield 1 has to stay true to that.
good video, just subscribed. played every bf since bf1942 (well, except Hardline). I bought this and uninstalled after 4 days. I miss good old engineer gameplay and variety. went back to bf4 and was grinning right away. I think the problem is mostly related to era. I got bored very quickly in bf1 even when playing the objective hard.
Joe Cospito I thought this game was just me. I got into the game at Bad Company 1. This game sucks for the short answer, I would play if there where guns. I liked BF4 because I was always unlocking stuff, but in this game.....
Joe Cospito i still have it, but i aint touchin it, the only reason this game is still alive is because of hype, however the gane has 37% less players than it did at launch
10:45 Nice fuckin shot man!!!
Good points dude. This game could def. use some improvements. I love it, but damn it could be so much better with a few minor tweaks.
It's true we need more weapons between level 4 to 10 in the classes
7:36 HAD ME CRACKING UP! Love ya, Stone!
Regarding the squad system, I totally agree that it needs some work for this team focused game. For the first time, I'm playing a bf on console, and everyone is a lone wolf using the squad system for mobile spawn points. I'd wish the squad leader had two important functions in the squad creation.
1) The ability to rename the squad. Then I could be able to rename it to something like "Teamwork-squad" or "VOIP-suad" or whatever, and hence, encouraging teamwork.
2) The ability to kick squad members as the leader. Maybe this is possible? Idk, I have not focused a lot on the squad system (other than using it as a mobile spawn point, lol, I'm a hypocrite) so you might be able to, but if not, it needs to be implemented to kick people not cooperating and snipers hanging out by a rock 300m from the action.
Its funny how ea sponsor most his video but not this one
i did a tip video series with them when the game launched you are likely referring too :)
I am free to say what i like about the game though, and BF has been great about listening to the community so i give the feedback
I'm level 45 now and I totally agree with everything you've said. Good stuff.
please fix the aa dice i cant fly ever without dying in 2 seconds
This is bad I know but I sat in my own spawn once and got 25 kills with the AA gun lol, once a plane gets close there is now way it's surviving
FACTS ! 🙌
Brett Too Nice its supposed to be like that. you can completely destroy the AA gun you know? make it a priority :)
Paul Walton they respawn in time it's useless
AA OP but if DICE remove AA airship be OP
THANK YOU for the bonus on squad size. holy shit this is the worst oversight i've seen in some time. how does this not come out in internal playtesting?!?!?!?
We need more guns, variants don't count
that was some badass sniping in the intro on amiens
no unlocks from level4 to level9, and then level10 medic and support weapons are so average.
hi stone mountain you are a great channel keep up the great work
Caleb Harrison that profile pic im crying
thanks man!
Dank Memes its a funny picture why are you crying
I'm afraid BF1 wont last as long as BF4 did/does
Trianglare it won't if they don't fix the progression
Trianglare Says it when the game is still fresh and before all the expansions come out
Jonathan ortiz If you look at the full game of BF4 and the full game of BF1. BF4 was a much larger game than BF1
It's sad that such a shit game like BF4 is still lasting.
Jordan Smith I know man but I'm looking at the full game without DLC's BF4 is bigger then BF1
I totally agree about the medals. I just reached level 70 on the xb1, and unless I can earn a medal with my regular play-style, the medals go on ignored. Too little xp and no new unlocks make it not worth the extra effort to get them.
My only complaint is that the game is only fun for about a week or so and then it gets old FAST. It has no long lasting fun factor like other BF titles. I'm already back to playing BF4 and BF3.
Greeneyes 217
Well, maybe you, I am having a blast since the launch and are not even close to getting bored yet
Mister K same he probably is sucking
100% agree on the medals and the revives being only 50 points and the lack of balance on the points in the various game modes, that's why i rarely play TDM or pigeons.
"top of the leaderboard every game like the people that play on my account do, so it looks like I'm a good player"..... lmao
ah i forgot to edit that secret out
strongly agree with the boring progression and attachments. i would have been happier with just a much smaller number of base weapons but then being able to tweak various parts of the weapons (barrel, receiver, stock, foregrip, whatever) for much more variety with the way they work (more than just 3 variants per weapon). I missed the meta strategy in BF3 and BF4 where you get to decide which aspects of your weapon to improve or sacrifice. Each weapon back in BF3/BF4 then could have a dozen 'variants' depending on the combination of modifications you chose, with each modification having both pros and cons. I miss that the most, even though BF1 does have the best core FPS gameplay
Stone, I think someone has stolen your account, because in some of this clips your not in any squad. That's not the StoneMountain64 I know.
I definitely agree with the revive points. I main as a medic and actually like reviving for the sake of doing it but still would like more points for it.
i dont play for dumb medals,points and all that shit that was not in old days,when people had fun with pure gameplay .crying about batllepacks and that shit .ugh that cod generation.how many weapons had Enemy Territory
And he's back!!!! StoneMountain!!! The beast!!! The legend!!!
Wtf do you mean tanks should be over powered? Tanks in ww1 were nothing like the ones in game. They were way slower and definitely wouldn't be able to launch shells as far as they can.
however almost no soldiers would have had a way to drop them it would have always been turrets
love your vids. Glad you can voice your honest opinion.
see you on the battlefield comrade 😎
Suh dude
I hope they add more levels and weapons in future DLC's and maybe a battlepack per level like you mentioned, and it is really grindy, you need SOOO much XP to level up
I agree with everything said in this video, even the poo.
LOL
Thank you for making this video.. Battlefield veterans need to know what's what.. Thanks again
Stone i level 77 and i play with a level 90. The levels is a joke level 99 u need 1.2M to level uo one And the 100s of guns DICE can add
love you stone, keep up the good work!
Actually i think Battlefield 4 is better than Battlefield 1, it just has more... stuff.
Well no shit there's a 100 year difference in technology
Doc Cyanide bf1 has only been out for 4 weeks num nuts they still have a lot of stuff to add and fix bf4 is a finished game
This is all exactly right, without earning anything from levelling up I'm finding it harder and harder to find the motivation to play on my own anymore, battlefield use to be all about the vast majority of of weapons and attachments, I mean it's still a magnificent game, I enjoy getting online with my mates and screaming so much Beacuse I'm having a good ol time, but yeah I don't know how they would fix this but I really hope they do something about it.
I also feel like there is no like personalisation to your weapons
Cody Antonie well in the older Battlefield games there were fewer weapons compared to BF4 and also no weapon customization at all but quite a lot people still play them till now
AA guns have too much range.
UA-cam Hero anything less than infinite is not enough.. 🤣
I kinda wish squads were 4 people again. Helps you focus and emphasize teamplay, without making the Spawn of squadmate feature too powerful.
tbh I couldn't give a shit if they did away with all the perks rewards etc... who looks at your camo on your gun... keep yer day glo camo for fast paced shooters like COD. I play games for the gameplay and fun ...I couldn't care less about rewards. If thats what bothers you then play something that does feed your seperiority fettish. I don't need to look at a KD ratio or wonder how well I did in a table compared to everyone else. I just wanna play the game and have some fun. It's a personal thing maybe but I don't need a gold star or someone to reward me little some little kid.
Oh my god thank you why do people crave that "reward" its like fucking candy crush on a bigger scale Jesus Christ go play cod, I play BF1 for the crazy battlefield moments and great team/objective gameplay not a fucking neon skin like cod
Good to know I'm not the only one who plays games for what they were meant for ...respect.. I was begining to think I was some sort of relic for thinking that way. Glad I'm not. I'm an Old Skool gamer, mature and not in constant need to have my ego massaged. I think the gaming industry is breeding an army of insecure kids and young adults who constantly need some reward or praise to boost their confidence. Just play and have fun and don't get too wound up if your on the losing side. Everyone wants to be a winner at all costs nowaday even if it means cheating. SAD
Mark Cowan You people are starting to chip away at my composer.
it's not rocket science when people enjoy customization.
I'm not against perks or customisation but it really shouldn't be a deal breaker whether a game is good or bad. Yeah perks, and little rewards or things to aim for are nice but shouldn't detract from the main reasons for buying and playing a game. Like I said I couldn't give a shit, I know people do like these things and I'm sure lots would still buy a game if it was good and didn't have these things. I just hate when some people complain about the GAME itself because it hasn't got a particular digital gun or colour scheme or whatever that doesn't actually have any bearing on the game itself. Yes customization is good...it's just an extra little add-on and shouldn't have so much importance placed on it.
Mark Cowan how narowminded to call it childish
I agree with everything you said. The medal system is pointless like you said and the points in conquest are hurting the game mode. No one defends anymore. I can't tell you how many times I capture and objective with so many people and then they all run back to the other objective getting capped that our team just capped. And then it just keeps happening over and over. So annoying
I love your humor StoneMountain64
There is also the fact that joining on a friend that is already playing in a full squad leaves you alone without the possibility to join another squad OR creating a new one. And that until someone frees a spot for you.
This wouldn't be such a problem if we had a "Friends" section in the server browser.
lol "Medals are not lit" gave me a laugh, but not as much as "and then you yell so much you poop a little..." XD
Not to mention I agree with everything, although I'd never thought about those issues with squads before.
xD
The reason Flags gives so much point is to encourage people to capture them and because DICE have seen that people just cares about points rather than winning they made flags give a lot of points. This is actually a good thing. Team DM can go and die as Battlefield is for large warfare.
So in previous Battlefield games I haven't seen people run for the flags all that often. In BF1 the flags are taken over A LOT and the combat moves around the entire map a few times over in a well balanced fight. It's honestly a good thing for Battlefield to do this. I hope they encourage more teamwork behavior with extra points so that people will do those more.
As someone in the top 1% for revives, I'd love a 50 point boost for them. I'd also appreciate the squad leader kick, better battlepack unlocks, and a better progression system. All good points.
Awesome video man
been having a game breaking issue on ps4, I can't finish a game of conquest without bring kicked off the server, it's not an internet issue, my games aren't laggy while playing, any know how to fix this?
yeah, agreed on just about all points.
I've to $10,000 in War Bonds just sitting around.
Gold battletags are cool and changing my play style to complete medals is a good change of pace, but I would love something more, a battlepack or more XP or skins, I dunno. I rock a mean barrage bomber, 1 stage of a medal is like 1 heavy tank kill (with a full crew inside) in XP.
I've always been a conquest player over other modes, but I know watchu mean. was quite disappointed at the end of round in other modes seeing the most any got was like, 5kxp - though it kinda evens out cause a CQ match goes for about half an hour.
yeah squads are so annoying - luckily I tend to get promoted or auto balanced into being squad leader (I kick people who suck).
YES - medics need more incentive to revive - or players need more incentive to play as medics.
bla bla bla. good work man, see you in the battlefield.
In regards to the medals: They're fairly easy to complete if you focus on them in a few domination matches. The challenge for me in completing medals is that I get maybe 2 1/2 days out of 7 to earn towards medals because they're constantly bugging out and reverting to the previous week's medals or just being completely empty/not presenting any medals to choose. Joining a game in any mode seems to present any patterns either. full shut down and restart only sometimes works too so.... yea medals need work. this is on Xbox one to be clear
Btw your making some good Points in this vid, im getting bored allready. The thing about conquest and capture the flags, some people get like 15-20k since the camp the tanks and all they do is capture. While us other idiots try to defend ect ect
He got this spot on
Every little thing you said was entirely agreeable, see if you if all people can get in touch with the Devs and shoot them these ideas man
You forgot how bad the spawns are. Sometimes I'll be killed 3 times in a row upon spawning on someone before I can survive more than a few seconds.
Biggest annoyance for me as a Calvary fan, is that over half the time I select the class- I end up with the Calvary loadout, but no horse.
Thank you Stone!
Stone, one of my biggest complaints is that at the end of a round, the game doesn't automatically scroll to my name on the scoreboard. May just be the PS4 platform but it bugs the crap out of me, especially because it feels glitchy when I scroll between pages at the end of the round.
Switch up the 1st map on operations. We don't always get to play the 2nd map. Nobody cares about historical accuracy after the 1st week
I totally understand the bit about the medals, I love lmg's but when I have those medals sitting there I feel really restricted because I want to get them done before they reset each week thus blocking me from playing the game my own way...
totally agree about squads, getting really pissed off with leaders not issueing orders. They need todo something about it.
I heard someone say: It's really hard to see people when their is debree and gas everywhere. I was gonna f***ing lose it
Here's what I think, if ur a squad leader you should be able to communicate with the other squad leaders to coordinate bigger scale attacks and you should also be able to chat with people in your vehicle
They should make it so camos have extra effects like extra camaflauge or better spot distance
Just open squad size to be any size. I play with my platoon and let me tell you it is so frustrating not being able to keep at least 12 of us on one team. Just open up the size of squads when you bring back the platoon system and the game will become so much better
My biggest complaint is in line with #1 and #2 on the list -- once you hit about level 50, you can get to level 10 on all classes and there's basically nothing left. Once you hit level 25-ish you've purchased most of the weapons you want. There's nothing left to work for in the game, it's just all open for you. They needed to cap certain things so you couldn't purchase them until a certain point, like you had to work through buying and using other weapons before you could get to the scoped version of the rifle. Meaning snipers would have to use non-scoped versions to unlock and be able to buy scoped versions. There's literally no point in playing some of the weapons in this game because you can't make them better by playing them and unlocking other features. It should have been a progression tree within a rifle, and not a separate rifle on the list. I think they did it the way they did to make it seem like there are more weapons in the game than there actually are because there's really only about 5 guns per class. But I would have much preferred having to work to unlock features than be able to buy the gun I want within a few hours of playing the game. Now that I'm level 65, I'm really only playing the game because it's fun and not because I'm trying to unlock something. The longevity is in question though. With BF 4, I was a level 125 and still hadn't unlocked all the weapons, and not even close to all the attachments for all the weapons. That's what you need in order to maintain the funness of a game over a long period of time. And with the announcement there won't be another BF game for 2 years, this one might get old quick if there's nothing left to do. Hopefully they adjust things with future content packs. When I get a gun, I want to have to work for stuff and make the gun better or custom to me.
Moreover, I hate the point system in this version of BF. You get way too many points for capturing a point and too few points for kills. I can spend an entire match keeping and defending a single point, go 30-5, and finish in the middle of the pack below people with a negative K/D ration. That's stupid. Defending points is just as important as capturing new ones but you're not rewarded the same. I find myself letting the enemy capture the point I'm defending just so I can take it back to get the 500 points.
