Battlefield 4

Is there any good reason to use DMRs?

Long range.

DMRs can 2 shot people.

stealth jets are so bad, do they get better once you unlock the 30m cannons? I assume they just become an attack jet without hydra rockets once you get those.

Stealth jets 30mm cannon is different from the attack jets, its fire rate is incredibly slow and doesn't seem to damage tanks or IFV at all, I don't really see a point to stealth jets at all other than killing choppers and other stealth jets, they're really hard to kill infantry with as well (I play on 360 atm, you can't really spot infantry too well). I haven't really played around too much with the attack jets to be fair though, I got my service star and left it at that until the xbone comes out, still trying to unlock all the pistols >.>

Holy shit these patches can't come soon enough, just had a game where I would have scored MVP that froze right as the winning screen came up.

Long range.

DMRs can 2 shot people.

Good luck getting that second shot when the recoil on them is so disgustingly high.

[Krandor]

If you use the iron sights on them, which granted kind of defeats the point, the kick up isn't that bad.

What mode gives the most points?

Bad night last night aside, definitely conquest. Domination only gives 25 XP per point capped. I'd say Rush is 2nd best simply cause it presents different scenarios where other kits and/or weapons/gadgets become useful so its a benefit as far as variety goes.

oh boy.

edit: just saw the vids posted above me, disregard. Still hilarious how this shit is going to fuck up people that camp on the rooftops.

[Krandor]

Did anyone else pick up the MTAR-21 today? It shows up when I'm actually in game but won't show up in Battelog for setting loadouts. Just wondering if anyone else is getting that.

[Kuishen]

Did they manage to screw up and give us all the China Rising weapons way before even Premium people get access to it?

[Krandor]

It's apparently part of the patch. Assignment for it is 1 Assault Rifle Kill, 1 LMG kill, 1 Sniper Rifle kill, 1 Grenade kill. Don't think it has to be during the same match but not sure. Either way it's kind of bugged, cause despite completing all of those it wouldn't give me the award while still playing, had to wait for the match to finish.

[Ezek]

Yeah, according to Reddit you can unlock them by completing assignments that aren't currently displayed in the Battlelog. Probably unintended? I have no idea.

I love this game man but this has been one of the buggiest launches of any non-mmo game that I've seen in a long time.

[Krandor]

Man, the assault rifle one is a pain (Defib kill)

[Krandor]

Let it be known, the MTAR is fucking amazing.

[RakEx]

Anyone get some rounds in on PS4 yet? I am interested in hearing someone's view/experience with it especially with the jump from 24 to 64.

[Quixon]

I'll be on PS4 later tonight after I get out of work.

[Weltall]

Ok, I'm a complete noob at this game. What does the number mean at the bottom of the screen that I can change from like 0-50-100-150? What do I normally want it set on? Ty

[Krandor]

I have no idea what you're talking about. Are you on recon? Only thing I can think is the zero point adjust on sniper rifles but the numbers aren't that small.

[Weltall]

Yeah, I think its for snipers/zooming?
