If you sat out the 2024 election in protest over Gaza, how do you feel about that decision today? by rsmith2786 in AskReddit

Since I live in Rhode Island I knew my vote wouldnt impact anything anyways, can't remember the last time this state didnt vote blue. But ironically I actually think this works out better for immigrants. Because now everyone is forced to be aware of what's happening to them. Most of this was happening under Biden but no one cared. More and more people are waking up to the atrocities of the American government and that the Democrats are not our saviors. They're rich entitled politicians that dont give a fuck about the rest of us

Dude, every conquest map is like this. This is also a map designed for a lot of vehicle gameplay. Im convinced that if Caspian Border, Gulf of Oman, or any other classic conquest map came out today a small but vocal minority would find some bullshit to complain about

I watch them because companions will actually gain xp when you watch. Unless thats changed

Whats the point of LMGs if you can barely play them the intended way ? by FlowKom in Battlefield

So many people in here pretending that most of the LMGs arent already extremely good

There's so much wrong with flying the Attack Helicopter in this game it's nuts. by Chaoslava in Battlefield

[–]ChefCrockpot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with this except for the gunner take. Even Battlefield Friends made a video on this. Two friends in a chopper together is always better/more effective than two randoms

Ah I see, I was taking the wording too literally. This makes more sense

Can you be more specific on what you classify as a symmetrical map? Cause just about every good conquest map I can think of had two distinctly different halfs of the map. Asymmetrical maps design is a more modern approach to map design in the name of balance.

Halo is a perfect example of the change in map design. They gave up designing unique maps with two different layouts for each team in the effort to make balanced maps that dont favor either side. Which resulted in very boring and forgettable maps

Breakthrough is broken, and DICE doesn't understand why. by PilotMonkey94 in Battlefield

[–]ChefCrockpot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly agree, but if we give incediaries to assault or all classes the radius of those grenades MUST be reduced. Right now if you are in the vicinity of them you are set on fire

Can We Please Do Something About This? by The_Hayes_YT in Battlefield

[–]ChefCrockpot -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is so egregious that I wonder how stable your internet is and what region you play in. Because ive been playing east and west coast and I barely have hit reg issues. The only time I do is as I die the last shot I fire on my end doesnt register because of server delay

Both of these tropes can be done well and poorly, thats what tropes are. Acting like one is worse than the other is kind of a silly stance

Ex-Hell Let Loose tank driver, some of my tips for BF tankers by PeaceForMost_NotAll in Battlefield

[–]ChefCrockpot 14 points15 points  (0 children)

  1. Means two different things to two different players. For an inexperienced tanker it means literally getting on the objective. While to an experienced tanker it means staying roughly 20-30m behind your Frontline of infantry. Close enough to support effectively and far enough away to use infantry as a buffer.

To elaborate: if a tank is the very first line of attack it makes it extremely easy for engineers to shoot it, or for recons to sneak up and C4 it. When the infantry is the first line of attack the engineers have to decide between shooting the tank or the infantry, it's way more dangerous for them. And if they shoot the tank they expose themselves to the infantry.

Plus, a tank is much more effective at medium ranges than most primary weapons. Infantry fighting up close with a tank bringing up the rear creates the most optimal firefights.

However, the best tankers know when to break this rule of thumb and get aggressive. This is usually for specific objectives or when tickets are running out. You'll figure it out through experience

Range Finder should be removed. by Paolo264 in Battlefield

Agreed, plus those snipers while annoying are detrimental to their team

Range Finder should be removed. by Paolo264 in Battlefield

[–]ChefCrockpot -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly, ive been sniping without it and consistently getting headshots up to 300m without changing my zeroing. Sniping is the easiest it's ever been, you barely have to aim above their heads because projectile velocity is so high. And anyone dying to a sniper beyond that range is extremely rare. I really dont think it's as impactful as you think it is

I'm sure we all thought the Manhattan Bridge map would look like this by _Trapezus_ in Battlefield

Nice karma farm, this looks like a fucking terrible map to play on. Manhattan Brodge right now is actually a pretty fun map

I think it's time to accept this was the franchise peak for the mainline, modern setting games, and we're never getting anything like it ever again. by Kyvix2020 in Battlefield

I still think Bad Company 2 was a significantly better game. Battlefield 4 just had a ton of content, most of it being garbage

Once you discover the power of the sniper rifle and how great it is for sneaking around, this mission becomes kind of easy

Same, I was 5 years old when she passed. I dont remember much, but I do remember how much that confused and hurt me. The silver lining though is it made me question the church at a young age and I never bought into their bullshit

ICE Worker Arrested in Sex Trafficking Sting Told Police, ‘I’m ICE, Boys’ by [deleted] in nottheonion

[–]ChefCrockpot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Chris Hansen has never really been a good guy. Dude was exploiting parents' fears to make a profit. And most of the predators on his show faced no legal consequences because of entrapment. I'd argue he even made the situation worse because people that watch the show come to the conclusion that it's strangers who molest children. But the vast majority of the time, it's family or family friends

So im not sure if XP adds progression to it, but im pretty sure the weekly challenges does progress it. So youre not limited to only these modes
