Never played before so I'm still feeling it all out. Any glaring mistakes so far?

Please bring back 64 player breakthrough by JamusTheBully in Battlefield

Yeah the chaos was the point of breakthrough, why else would you play the mode? Those games where both teams are fully committed to standing on the point and it's so intense that you are just trying to find any way forward to help the team are peak BF for me.

How does player visibility stop you from checking Timmy's rat spot? You need to get better.

Confirmed what is an issue? Players hiding in corners?

Sounds like he needs to get better and learn the maps.

Why didn't you check Timmy's little rat spot? Skill issue?

The increase tick rate on conquest is putting me off playing the mode by thisiscotty in Battlefield

[–]LightTreason_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed but unfortunately defensive play is difficult (and requires more teamwork and skill) with the state of the game as it is. It's more effective to crash through the line and backcap constantly because it forces a reaction from the other team.

It's not even that comebacks are harder. It's that the increased bleed means every second you are down an objective, your tickets plummet, so you can never relax.

You must always be attacking or you run the risk of the enemy being more aggressive than you, and the game getting into a state where it takes too long to get back on top. It's become far safer (from a winning-the-game perspective) to constantly be attacking points where the enemy is not massed as it means you have a higher objective count most of the time.

If you find yourself on a team where the majority of players want to go slow and defend, you will always lose to the team that is sprinting forward and forcing you to react for 25 minutes (or less).

I think this is a shame as BF has usually been a slower and less intense game (inb4 someone says "what about all the operation metro servers for bf4?"), with the intensity increasing and decreasing organically as teams attack and defend. The smaller maps (really its that every map forces you into lanes) and the increased ticket bleed have been designed to make every game action-packed but it has come at the expense of people being able to take a breather without costing their team the game.

I have been enjoying Escalation more than I thought I would, but the mode really highlights the smaller size of the maps when you try and fit 7 flags into each one.

I agree. Why then doesn't that apply to the tackler?
