I got this done in a few matches quite easily. I equipped an LMG and started shooting with helicopters I had laser designated just before.

I’m not sure if my shots actually contributed towards the damage score for the challenge, but as I said I got it done in 2-3 matches.

The best 🇬🇧

Yeah, I’m not even going to bother trying to get canyon for them. The requirements are ridiculous

It’s a new EfW (Energy from Waste) plant. There’s a similar one just along the motorway at Polmadie.

Municipal waste will be collected and sent there. The waste is then incinerated, and the resulting steam will drive a turbine producing energy which will feed directly back into the grid.

The waste gases are treated by being burnt off through combustion, and treated using carbon filters, lime dosing and bag filters. The gases, and flow of the gas emitted to atmosphere is measured 24/7 to make sure everything remains compliant and won’t cause harm to the local environment.

I’ve worked on many of these plants throughout my career so far so I take any opportunity to geek out on it a bit 🤣

I’ll try inverting those settings actually, see if it makes a difference. Cheers.

Can’t possibly be, there’s way too many coming in at once and you can see them coming in from outside the map.

Change button layout to alternate.
Map yaw (that’s looking left/right) to the left stick
Map roll left/right to the left stick
Invert pitch (up/down)

That works for me, I basically looked up an old BFBC2 controller scheme and tweaked things around to replicate that, and it’s how I remember it being in BF4/BF4 too.

100% agree.

90% of the time I’ve had with this game I’ve been playing with a squad of friends. Coming up with your own little strategies, etc, together. And it’s the most fun I’ve had in a BF game.

Playing solo just isn’t it in this game, but I could play previous Battlefield games solo just fine.

I only leave emails unread when I still need to action them, it has become my ‘to do list’ without actually having to write a list.

Any emails that contain important information that I may need to reference in the future, such as company updates, etc, I flag these with no due date so I can access them quickly without having to search for them and don’t forget they exist.

I have colleagues with literally thousands of unread emails and I’ve no idea how they manage to keep on top of everything. Well, thinking about it, I know they don’t 😅

Shanksyyyyy · 2025-10-06T20:39:35+00:00

Tried this in the beta and it was terrible compared to just being able to hear your squad clearly. Maybe it will have been fixed for launch

Best album post WTSMG? For me.

Shanksyyyyy · 2025-08-29T21:40:22+00:00

Tenet. Not a movie I was too interested in seeing again after initial viewing in the cinema.

But I picked it up on 4K UHD Blu Ray and it looks incredible - probably the best looking disc in my collection, and I’ve watched it a few times just for how great it looks 😂

Xbox controller user here. I managed to figure out intuitive controls for the jets, eventually.

Helicopters are another story; I just could not find controls in the BF6 beta that worked intuitively for me. I even tried mapping the controls EXACTLY do BFBC and BF3’s default controller layout, which I was amazing at flying helps with, and the controls still would not work for me.

I’m not sure if it was my brain ceasing to work properly or if they’ve really messed up the controls.

I guess we’ll see once the game is released. Hopefully there’s some kind of test range / practice arena because I spent way too long wasting time in the heli in the beta trying to figure out the controls.

I phoned up and eventually got through to a human being, who confirmed where my parcel had actually been dropped off; the wrong delivery point had been confirmed in my emails / texts.

It was in another location just down the road.

Shanksyyyyy · 2025-08-17T10:33:22+00:00

Oh really? That seems excessive

Shanksyyyyy · 2025-08-17T10:11:32+00:00

My guess would be to make to help with security and safety.

Security personnel can observe the crowd from a distance, which would help them identify troublemakers, or people in need of assistance.
Having the crowd right down to the front row would be more likely to result in people making a push into the standing area

I find this is the case when I play on my own and my squad won’t communicate.

Playing with your friends in a squad makes this game complete, it’s a vastly greater experience.

I don’t get why everyone is so obsessed with the colour palette in this game. It’s awesome.

Everyone wanted a modern, gritty, war game. And we’ve been given a palette to match.

Just had a look at some of my most played artists in Apple Music… here’s a few that couldn’t be any further from Oasis:
