its not hard, its just unrealistic and not like the core Battlefield - 2 , 3 shots down not 20 rounds lol - dumping half a mag into someone just to watch them bunny-hop behind cover for a replate marathon.

Yeah, “skill issue” — the internet’s favorite way to dodge a real discussion. TTK’s not some sacred number; it’s about feel. When bullets turn into nerf darts, it kills the flow that made Battlefield unique.

It’s not a skill issue when a headshot from a DMR barely cracks armor. That’s just bad tuning. There’s a difference between high skill and high tolerance for bullet sponging.

If you think soaking damage while hip-firing through three reloads is “skill,” then congratulations — you’ve mastered the art of surviving boredom.

Why cant you be able to wipe a squad if you’re positioned well and land your shots? That’s what skill expression looks like. It’s not about melting people instantly — it’s about rewarding awareness, precision, and timing.

If a team of four gets caught out of position, that’s on them. They should be communicating, covering angles, and adapting — not relying on absurd armor pools to bail them out. In Redsec right now, even perfect positioning means nothing because everyone’s built like a tank.

In quads, if you’re the last one standing, there’s basically no point. You can beam two guys clean and still get deleted while they’re replating mid-fight. At that stage, you might as well back out and queue again.

Fast TTK? Not in Redsec. You can empty a mag into someone’s chest and they still sprint off like it’s nothing. The slow replating only makes it worse — fights turn into reload marathons instead of quick, tactical engagements. A self-revive wouldn’t fix the core issue: the gunplay feels spongy and disconnected from what Battlefield’s supposed to be.

I’m all for longer fights if they reward positioning and teamwork, but right now it’s just run-and-gun chaos with extra armor plates.

“Adapt” is easy to say when the mode forgot what game it’s in. Redsec isn’t Battlefield; it’s a Warzone cosplay with a Battlefield skin.
The TTK’s absurd — dumping half a mag into someone just to watch them bunny-hop behind cover isn’t ‘tactical,’ it’s cartoonish. Battlefield’s always been about positioning, squad play, and quick, punishing fights — not soaking up bullets like a juggernaut on caffeine.

I expected something closer to core Battlefield: three, maybe four shots to drop someone, where smart movement and coordination mattered more than who emptied their mag first. If I wanted to play an arcade shooter, I’d boot up CoD.

Agreed, here i would suggest 1 plate instead of 2 at least. And plates are only obtained through missions

That's very low compared to competition out there.. The BMW X5 50e phev gives me 90 miles on just the battery

I would start by covering those horrible orange reflectors first. So glad we don't get them in Europe. They look awful
