drunkaholic707 @drunkaholic707 yo I think you were saying you only do team death matches and yeah, that's how I started out too the first couple days of playing but man, the points are just too little. You can have a solid game in TDM and only get like 2,500 points, whereas you can have a decent OK game in Conquest and end up with 10,000 points or so. Like that last game I played last night I went 14-14 for kills but I played the objectives, so I ended up with like 14,000 points (if I had a better game it could be well over 20k). Since my solider is still low level, its much more beneficial to play conquest as it levels me up much much faster and I can unlock sweet guns and other tools.

pretty much if you dont have a good team it will piss you off you also have to diversify your bonds
Yeah but I've found I can still have some decent games with poor teams. I mean there's like 30-32 players on your team so there's always going to be a few decent/good players (unless it's TDM if that's the case it's going to be brutal).

If I'm getting my ass kicked I'll switch to Medic and follow around my squad and patch them up tossing them med kits and reviving fallen soldiers, throwing Smoke grenades when possible to block enemy view. I've had several matches where I get wrecked like 3-12 Kill/Death Ratio but got thousands and thousands of points off being a good medic.

In general my K/D ratio is bad because I'm always playing the objective. It irritates me when players just sit in one spot even though the war is going on in other parts of the map, like yeah cool you have a good K/D ratio but you're not helping anyone. I also hate it when I see Medics who don't medic, Support who don't toss ammo and Snipers who aren't spotting. I spot constantly, probably more than I actually shoot my gun, it's such an easy thing to do and helps your team immensely so I don't understand why so many people don't spot at all.

The flip side is even worse imo, when people skip the revive opportunity.

It's a stupid feature because people think they can respawn faster, it doesn't! All it does is bring you to the map but you still have to wait the same amount of time regardless. So why did DICE add that feature? Makes no sense. They should at least make u wait a 3-5 seconds before you can push the button to at least give medics a chance to revive you.

Just now I played a game and there were at least 9 or 10 revives I could have got but as soon as I'm running over there they skip. So I end risking my life running to them, pull out my syringe and as soon as I'm about to prick them they fucking bounce and the skull suddenly disappears. Pisses me the fuck off.

It just depends on the team though - the match I had before everyone waited and I got a bunch of revives and also revived myself by other medics. No one talks in the game for some reason but I'm going to start to announce Everytime I'm a medic to wait for me to revive them, maybe that will help. Honest the reason so many people skip is because they are ignorant to how it works - they simply think they are respawning faster. DICE needs to make an update either change how long they have to wait or to make it more clear to the players. I mean it's pretty obvious already in that the mini map shows of a medic is nearby and if they are coming towards you, but I'm guessing no one realizes that either!

Medic is a fun class too because it has some of the best weapons. Mostly bolt action but some have the ability to change to semi automatic and most are great sniper counters, capable of one shot kills. It's one of my favorite classes but it's really damn frustrating when your team skips revives

I usually wait if I see a medic coming closer and closer but a lot of the time medics don't revive then they run off after waiting for 30 seconds to get revived
It's kinda hit and miss. After I made that post, I announced I was a medic in a game and told my squad not to skip and apparently that shit worked I got 39 revives. That is a ton for me usually if I can get 10 I'm happy, 39 is crazy, I saved the video I was proud lol

I recently got the Autoloading 8 .25 Extended and I gotta say this is the best gun I've used as a medic. It's super fast and if you turn a corner and run into an assault at the second time, you can unload your clip faster than most automatic rifles. Normally with a bolt action or whatever you're always going to use that battle but with Autoloading not only do you have a fighting chance you can usually win.

One of the things I find cool about this game is the high details in all of the guns. Each gun has its pluses and minuses and there are subtle details about each gun which is up to you to learn and use to your advantage, like sweet spots for all of the rifles, etc. At first glance a lot of the bolt rifles seem similar but they are all very unique with the storm, marksman, trench, etc. variants.

That's funny about the syringe. I wonder it they nerfed it since beta because I've stabbed a couple people with the syringe and it definitely didn't kill them. Or maybe you have to so it from behind idk


Medic is my best class as far as points and Support I have the most kills. My favorite two classes. Lewis gun is dope no real need to upgrade, I tried a couple differentguns but kept going back to the Lewis. I did just get the BAR 1908 however since I always see people talking about how good it is but I've only played one or two games with it so far, jury is still out. I like how suppressing fire with LMGs is beneficial in that it will darken the opponents vision and you get points for suppressing enemies.

Scout is cool too but I'm not the best sniper so I tend not to do all that great and lastly I don't really like the assault class for some reason. So far the starting out MP18 seems like the best gun I've tried there.

Even the rank 1 The Cei-Rigotti Self-Loading Rifle is pretty dope in the medic class. When I first started playing I didn't realize you can press down on the arrow pad to switch from Semi-Automatic to automatic, here you can see the fire rate is pretty fast for a self-loading rifle:



I like to switch between the Autoloading 8 .25 Extended and this.
