[@TheBrokenMachine]

Apologies for the late upload! Scrapped the first draft, hope the second version makes sense =) anything I didn't explain enough.. let me know down below. Hope you guys are doing good =) enjoy!

[@justsaymike3370]

TheBrokenMachine hi you r my bf1 idol🤗🤗🤗😋=p

[@Wanees23]

TheBrokenMachine most the people in this game play without any strategy like either stay in the same spot all the game , don't forget about bad medic 😕

[@Shinji_Ikari777]

TheBrokenMachine i move through the battlefield with passion and umpeckable timing nice video man

[@fernandoferrera1353]

TBM como haces el movimiento del minuto 8:44 antes matar a ese chico, espero que te ayudes de Google translate lol saludos desde Honduras

[@abboudsalman99]

TheBrokenMachine You absolute beast ! you forgot to talk about the crouching move that you do , i'd appreciate if you could elaborate in that a bit more , awesome vid , cheers mate :)

=D cheers Al, appreciate that dude!

[@moge820]

How is naming some of your content "PRO MULTIPLAYER GAMEPLAY" humble?

[@jacknemo8021]

Sadly I can see what I need to do, but at 51 I just can't quite press the right button fast enough, lol. Where did my fast twitch reflexes go? I settle for playing support or medic and throwing a shit ton of packs about, also hosing planes with LMG fire is fun too. And yes, I am the guy with all the crossbow 'nades....with a medic and rifle nades I can have up to 6 smoke nades going at once! You see a square kilometer of smoke approaching the objective, odds are it's me..... Still hate you twitchy reflex suckers! J/K. Much love.

[@metalbella3737]

Jack Nemo I love that you’re an older gamer!!! Do finger push ups lol

[@dellas7137]

Jack Nemo mate I'm 46 loads of fun we should squad up oldies unite

[@richardobrien4153]

Amen! I'm now approaching 73 and just beginning. I always thought gaming fps was just for kids. Jeez, what a challenge and thrill at same time.

[@TechSupportDave]

@@richardobrien4153 Yep. It's always good to keep an open mind. Good things come from it with no downsides. I used to think cartoons were only made for kids, but some are clearly made for adults only.

[@Sayit9297]

Do you guys wanna jump in a game together?

[@formerlyreliablenarrator2682]

This was extremely helpful. Specifically the parts where you break down your thought process, saying where you were going, what you were doing and why. Any chance there's more videos like this, perhaps even in the future?

[@baduncle6378]

Try to go with your tips but often end up being the headless chicken guy

[@darkshore2028]

I know you said this 6 years ago but I just got back into this game and after the same guy kills me 3 times in a row I lose all composure 😂

[@baduncle6378]

@@darkshore2028 then you get that right nothing else matters now gotta kill him back feeling 😂

[@_Special_K_777]

As a Battlefield vet I still have issues getting used to the game and you sir actually have helped me a lot when it comes to aiming or just adjusting settings. Keep going man. Love the channel.

[@shopa777]

Never too late for another BrokenMachine's video 😃 there is always something to learn. Nice one 🤘

[@justsaymike3370]

Shopa 777 AGREED👍👍👍👍👍👌👌

[@TheBrokenMachine]

=D I agree =P cheers again dude

[@dmsanx]

In the beginning of the video, did you noticed that the guy with the AT rocket just barely missed you as you moved to your right? Where you expecting that? Awesome video as always!

[@flanigan69-28]

Beautiful. I have been trying to use the broken machine mantra whenever I play recently...."Take ya time, take ya time. No need to rush." Combine that with these tips and hopefully I can start to not be a noob.

[@Ginzzzu]

"Slicing the pie" is the real SWAT technique btw )

[@brianb.1883]

In the Marines, we called it “bisecting the corners”.

[@28th_St_Air]

good advice. i like this type of video. at 9:18 it's comforting to see that even a beast like you can "position" yourself too close to your own carnage. :)

[@hardstock07]

Man I love your videos , especially in aiming, positional strategy, and tutorials as a sniper gameplays! Especially tutorials of sniper plays! Very useful and applicable!

[@jeffwamester2365]

Great video! "Beautifully" explained... also the part where you explain coming around with longer range weapons was really appreciated!

[@CaseyJones88]

You forgot to mention very important map awareness and tunnel visions of snipers. Great tips and video like always 10/10!

[@thereallegend4lyfe]

The quality of the footage is sooo goood

[@swertyman]

Can you make more tips and tricks videos? I need to learn and know everything you do.

[@Joker_Jones]

Perfect explanations man. You simplify what I'm sure a lot of people don't understand into smaller sections easier to grasp

[@alank4558]

Great guide man, I'm learning quite alot from you and I'm gradually improving. At one point I raised my sensitivity, and after a couple days I got from a shit 30% to 70%. Can you make some tips on flanking?

[@80Tamiya]

great tutorial brokenmachine. i play medic class mainly to see where teamates are dying. helps my positioning immensely.

[@dzgknw]

I didn't know you could change the size of the mini map. Just that alone has helped. Thanks TBM

[@TheBrokenMachine]

yup =D try my settings guide too!

[@wildwesterner8911]

One thing I learnt from yer videos is to glance at the minimap. Telling you where enemies are,or dead teammates showing you the direction they are coming from.

[@TheBrokenMachine]

yup! good tip. mentioned that here too =D

[@Malvasala]

these type of video in your channel are my favorite, well with Play of the week. Thank you

[@kushonpc2194]

Thanks Broken It will help a ton

[@Twisted_Tempest]

Excellent guide Machine. Slowly been improving using your tips. More to take on board is always appreciated.

[@TheBrokenMachine]

no problem, hope to hear I've helped your gameplay

[@Twisted_Tempest]

TheBrokenMachine Most definitely. Your tips are a massive help man. Find myself higher up on the score board way more now thanks to you and your videos. ;P

[@darkvipersniper]

Very good video I see a lot of what u explain ingame were ppl feel the need to rush at max speed not looking we’re there going or checking corners great video 👍🏼

[@TheBrokenMachine]

they do indeed, such a hard habit to break tho! cheers

[@rikter22]

perhaps do a video where you mainly use the model 10-A slug? it'd be cool to see it used effectively. love your channel and tips.

[@dan.s6571]

Great video TBM. You've improved my gameplay 100% with your tutorials and gameplay so thanks dude

[@TheBrokenMachine]

glad to hear that! =D any thing you want to see in a guide?

[@dan.s6571]

TheBrokenMachine I think you've covered most things to be honest! There's only so much you can do, the rest is practice. The top bit of advice you give is simply taking your time. It makes such a difference.

[@DerFuhrer76]

Thank you for taking the time to try to help the BF community...as always great information

no problem! always happy to help

[@Scotlandsworstgamer]

[@gymbobjoe1091]

Thanks for bringing this tutorial to us dude. I know it's been a bit of a chew on to get this out but seriously many thanks. I know everyone gains some knowledge from these. You're a credit to the community. Keep it up! Also you seem to have done your research slicing the pie is an actual method of room entry. #CheekyBuggerSquad

[@TheBrokenMachine]

np Gym Bob Joe re-did this one from scrap, tutorials do take a lot longer than the usual vid, but, more valuable to the community, must make more. Thanks for checking it out =D

[@xantilyst]

I've much respect for your time investing in making videos like these, keep it up!

[@TheBrokenMachine]

no problem! does take a while to create tutorials, gotta be full of info but not too long winded, tough to condense topics down into 10 mins or so.,

[@patrickschmitt8738]

another gem broken, good job!

[@derprotagonist7843]

Great tutorial broken💪🏻 most players rush to quickly and run into a bunch of enemies or come into a bad position. Take your time guys! It will safe your virtuell life ;-)

[@circomistocles1464]

Noice advice dude. Really helps me out.

[@mickmorgan732]

Absolutely love these vids dude one hell of a player 👏 👏 just wanted to say thank you for the content and tips long may it continue aswell as ur kill streaks good luck broken machine 👍😀

[@Taznar]

I think the bad positioning of other players is why sniping works so well. Many players just run willy-nilly around the map or sit in one spot exposing themselves. It makes for easy sniping kills. For sniping, here are my tips (I'm not at the same caliber as TBM tho lol) Work with/cover your squad, use cover, focus on one general area at a time, and DON'T stay in one spot too long, especially in buildings or on hillsides. Move from window to window, hill to hill, etc. As soon as you get a few kills in one spot you get spotted because its easy to remember where that guy shot you at when he's sitting in one spot. I like to throw a decoy down in my spot before leaving, then move where I still get a decent view of my previous area. They (sometimes) get distracted by the decoy when they're going for revenge, then you pop em'. Also try to "sneak" away from your spot. If you're popping up and down from a window (a good technique), crawl/crouch away from the window, then move to the next spot. They will sit there waiting for you to pop back up, making them an easy kill for you or your team. I guess it's kind of a form of flanking, just at longer range. Try to position yourself in view of hotspots/squad objectives. Don't be a complete lone wolf. Don't just go for kills, go for kills that help your team/squad progress. Nothing is more aggravating than your fuckin squad member being on the other side of the map when your whole squad just got wiped out and you need to spawn back in near the spot your fighting for. Just a few tips. Try em' out.

[@BK-mh9ex]

Well, i hate snipers so if u kill me, i will fucking find u and kick your ass

[@scottt.919]

Great video, TheBrokenMachine. You actually use a lot of real life tactics, believe it or not.

[@Om-xt1wx]

Loved this video like I love all your videos.

[@H4nnks]

Great Vid, Broke! Hope to see you on PC someday!

[@volitanttitan8127]

Thanks for another great video...I have to learn not to rush in..

[@vitastheniker]

Those are the videos I want to see. No one does them better than you.

[@thesamedufus2012]

3:43 What game mode is this and how did you get to it?

[@Reason_over_Dogma]

Thank you so much for this video!!

[@TheBrokenMachine]

no problem =D

[@calebrace144]

Broken any tips for agrresive gameplay because I already am working on the defensive positioning play style and I'm getting top of scoreboard with 40 plus kills but usually 9-15 deaths and that's because I like to play aggressively as well I get a few kills then get killed right afterwards anything that you'll think will help I don't use aim assist btw

[@TheBrokenMachine]

You can only be so aggressive, doesn't matter how good you are, someone else will always have the better position at some point. Aggressive play is easier if you flank as much as possible. Aggressive play on open maps is usually not a good idea.

[@fadhlalharby7875]

I would love for someone experienced to play with me and teach me stuff about the game

[@Kellrell_]

Dude I've been meaning to ask you, I like The Obrez Pistol but the hip seems a bit off there have been times where I could be right on someone without them knowing I'll get a quick rifle shot and then pull out the pistol putting my trust into my hand to eye coordination using the crosshairs and it'll just miss completely like I've had times where it'll hit but I must be doing something wrong because when you use that Pistol you get good "Hit Reg" andddddd that is all. Nice Vid 😁🤙🏼

[@TheBrokenMachine]

Yeah I've noticed that too. Bullet drop seems to be quiet a lot of the obrez. I was watching sTodeh play the other night and it was happening to him too it seems. Might just be the odd server lag atm.

[@Kellrell_]

Yeah dude, and oh yeah stodeh makes me laugh when he rages lol hahaha

[@diegoandresgarciarojas5104]
