Battlefield 4 Conquest Tips, Tactics & Strategy

[@Freezera86]

I think you have forgotten some very important aspects of winning a conquest game. 1. DEFENDING is easier then CAPTURING so when a flag is being captured be the enemy team. Spawn on it (unless it's completely overrun of course) 2. BE on the BURN, the only way to win a game of conquest is to have the most flags you can't outkill a team only outburn them. So don't waste time on people not playing the objective but the ones that do. 3. Do NOT let the enemy team backrage the flags closed to your base. A or E flag for example on siege of shanghai. So defend them all the time, and try to capture the ones of the enemy team. So they can't put so much pressure on yours. 4. Try to communicate with your squad when you got a headset, you would be surprised how many people will communicate back or follow your orders. 5. know when to retrieve from a flag. It's sometimes better when your outnumbered to let them take the flag and then retake it when they leave. And don't let them know your there (so stay of the burn in that case)

[@Joe.k.e]

So, uh, u tryna squad up now or what?? 😆

[@SRTKOVA]

Sadly brutha rarely ppl play as a team like this unless private server with ppl u know on ur team

[@TheJourney-14]

After a decade bf4 is still GOAT

[@Scylla94941]

The biggest flaw of any FPS game are the players. I rarely ever rage quit but when I do it's not because I'm getting owned so hard, but because my team mates are so incredibly stupid and don't give a shit about the objective or team work. So the best advice simply is "don't be a stupid moron".

[@Countryboy2206]

lmao so true

[@MrAmmo30]

that zacthug shot was amazing

[@SoheilusBlue]

Conquest is really well done in Bf4. I enjoy it the most.

[@HalXV]

Something I was really hoping levelcap would mention in the "how to use vehicles" is know where they should go, I mean when you start a game in conquest, and you get a fast vehicle like an heli or a quad bike, etc, you actually have the responsibility to go for further conquest points that the 1 or 2 closest ones, man I feel really frustrated when I spawn in the beginning of the match into a little bird or a combat heli transport heli as a gunner and the pilot decides he wants to use the heli to conquer the closest point... instead of going for the middle ones and drop some infantry in there that would grant an advantage at the beginning, I mean while you're using your heli to conquer a point that can and will be easily conquered by people who is going on foot or tanks, the other team conquers 3 points because they used their vehicles wisely. Like in Siege of Shangai, the helis are meant to defend the point C (B on PS3/XBOX360), with a little bird it is so easily to take over a fully loaded C point, but not some people just fly around all the other points leaving aside the clear advantage that the Heli has on that particular conquest point. And also, I REALLY REALLY HATE the snipers or people who use any kind of heli to go to any high point and then land it there. if you're gonna do that at least have the curtsey to destroy the heli so that your team can use it again.

[@OhHenrie1]

I play bf4 solo all the time because none of my friends own a gaming pc -.- so I have to play with myself, I wish they had one!

[@BamboozledUp]

people will play with you on reddit...

[@OhHenrie1]

Pablo Horteg naw, i don't really like that. i'd rather play with people i know so it doesn't get too personal :) (fighting)

[@ericgarcia7592]

Pablo Horteg Not on pc :)

[@madmatt41187]

Jason Henrie you can make new friends. If your squad doesn't click go to a different squad. Don't be scared of meeting new people and making new friends.

[@OhHenrie1]

madmatt41187 i heard the bf4 community is horrible tho .-.

[@mob1589]

I hate it when I ask for ammo or health they don't give a fuck.but when I see ppl with low health I give them health with out them asking

[@giuliomorleo8194]

A good player drops constantly or depending on the situation health and ammo without getting asked for it. Douchbags or people who really don't know what they're doing may not drop a crap. That's how I see it.

[@MrGeary08]

I drop ammo where i think a lot of people will walk through

[@robotelamon4598]

Those people are considered tryhards or assholes

[@dellas7137]

me to bruv

[@eldritchsun40]

It's really annoying on hardcore, but also easier. Whenever I'm injured and practically begging a medic for health, I just kill him and use his medkit and revive him if he has defibs.

[@MrThedragonskater12]

Great video thank you i just started playing this game feels fantastic in conquest to finally do what you want in a shooters game love that urban feel

[@aimlesfez]

Having LevelCap as one of your squad mate also help.

[@AroPnut]

3:50 This is why I always have a bad time with Rush, I'm constantly put on these teams where too many of my team mates are too passive and sit in the back picking off people rather than aggressively pushing objectives. Despite this Rush is still one of my favorite game modes and as the game goes on I find that people start to push more aggressively, but by the time they do it's already over for our team.

[@EwokNubNub]

That happens 80% of the time. Its kinda ridiculous.

[@OnlyTimefps9]

I'm telling you guys right now, these players who spawn trap are the players who play too much cod! Spawn trap logic=kiss my ass. This game mode is a freaking joke! It's not fun to play anymore! Even my teammates were spawn trapping enemies like pussies!

[@KeigleCoach]

I hear you bro. Rush is probably my favorite game mode but I usually dont want to jump into it if I dont have some friends playing with me. The same can be said for Conquest too. I've learned that sometimes you can turn the tables with some solid play but other times you need to stop butting your head against a brick wall and just switch teams to the better team or if thats not possible just go to another server. There's no shame in any of that! If your team really sucks there's no reason to keep losing games. However, I do frown on leaving mid-game. Even if im getting my hog stomped on I'll play the game out.

[@OnlyTimefps9]

I'm sorry I case I might be cussin slightly, but oh my gosh! I has one of the worst game I've ever joined in rush. All I see are spawn trappings! It pisses me off so hard! I just feel like reporting them all day! I'm just sick and tired of spawn traps! Please guys, just move! Don't sit inane place and spawn trap the whole game! That's also considerably a move that makes a game breaking situations and become a cancer to people's enjoyment who want to play Rush.

[@KeigleCoach]

Getting spawn trapped sucks bro, but it's a double edged sword. If you let up on the team you have trapped they might push you back and get the objectives. Then again if you are trapping and too many of you push up a squad can get behind you and plant both objectives before you can get back to defuse them. If you're on a team that keeps getting crushed just switch or leave.

[@manny75586]

I wish more people took your advice to practice in the training ground. I HATE spawning into the passenger seat of a vehicle and the person has no idea what they are doing. Especially when it is a fool in a helicopter who goes straight down and kills you.

[@Lentsku]

I'm sure this is a one hell of a tutorial for all the newbies out there, great work LevelCap!

[@VioletGiraffe]

It's amazing how easily you shoot boats and other ground-level targets with attack jet. I can fly around and sort of dogfight (or at least harass air targets), but I can never line up for a run on a ground vehicle, and when I try that, I do more damage by crashing into them than by shooting.

[@user-oe1hq3wm4r]

I remember one time I followed a random squad mate and tried to help him, the rest of my squad saw that we stuck together and they joined us. We where unstoppable from that point on.

[@SMPLHobbies]

Conquest Tip #1 - Fill your friends list and run a full squad.

[@EddoWagt]

***** lonely xD

[@thatsquidwardfeel5567]

***** Then you're better off in CoD :D

[@SMPLHobbies]

Add people you meet in pubs. Or check out DigitalWarfare247 . com

[@thatsquidwardfeel5567]

***** It did and I meant that ironically too (that's what the ":D" was intended to be for). But yeah, irony on the internet...It's like porn on the radio.

[@TheNicBarn]

AMAZING VIDEO LEVELCAP!! My dad recently switched from COD to BF4 and is maybe 2 weeks into playing it. I've been trying so hard to teach him the key points to being good at the game to bshorten the learning curve. It's been ruff since he's a COD player but I showed him this video and it's MAJORLY helped him, and beat it into his head what to do to be an asset to your team...and also how much of a "team" game this is, compared to what he has been used to.

[@mikksen1234DK]

I just found out i'm forever alone in bf4

[@TheBlackfire218]

What a throwback

[@Sloveniacountry]

I love how I watch lvlcap. Then I go play battlefield like "lets go pwned some newbs" but then I get killed by a guy with a spas...

[@o-654]

i know that feel all too well

[@stewa4067]

Great vid LevelCap!! I'd like to share a quick story: I was on golmud, one squad on my team took all of the tanks AND the LAV/BTR and lined them up on a hill somewhere in the field close to our spawn. They were "trying" to fire at long distance targets and were missing terribly, completely wasting the vehicles. I guess we are all motivated by different things, these guys clearly wanted a good K/D whereas I wanted to play the f'in objective

[@conormacc2750]

In all honesty I never have been the best at battlefield. But if there is ever a time a do good in battlefield 4 is when I'm playing with a group of friends. No matter how much practise I put into battlefield I can never do good on solo... Reasons are No.1 My team is too busy racking up kills and boosting their k/d ratio rather than playing the objective or No.2 I get confused with all the different objectives around me and since there is a lack of team communication I end up all over the place and I get my ass served on a silver plater. But when I play with friends its completely different. We spread out across the map and have snipers guarding capture points or in locker we use the .50 cal to lock down the centre. It works every single time. I actually can't remember a single game I played with friends were I would rage or we would get our asses completely destroyed. But on solo I constantly rage and fling my controller down in frustration after a game. It just proves that Battlefield is not meant to played alone. But props to anyone who is patient enough to get good at playing objective game modes like conquest and rush on solo!

[@Charlemagne_III]

Thanks for the RTS comparison, that was a very useful analogy to help me understand the value of vehicles.

[@wizzzer1337]

I know that it may sound weird, but if you introduce yourself in voice chat before you just do battle chatter and ask for things- people will be much more inclined to communicate with you. if you reduce the tension, make people understand that you are just another dude trying to have a good time, people will give you feedback.

[@MrProMuffin]

Spawning in from a parachute gives a big advantage. The transport heli can be used as a mobile spawn point for your team. Fly as high as possible over a flag and let your team mates spawn and drop into the objectives

[@xAwesomeMinecraftx]

Forgot to mention if you dont have friends to play conquest with, ._.

[@spacspac2]

You'll always be my friend Morgan Freeman.

[@RedFoxGaming42]

Morgan can you be my friends. I don't have any :(

[@mgcpies]

Add me on psn then

[@xAwesomeMinecraftx]

fogle curry I'm on pc ._.

[@TheGreenDyedSheepMC]

Morgan Freeman LOL

[@roomisonfire]

Hey LevelCap I wanted to suggest something I don't think you've mentioned before, it's a little trick I like to use when driving the APCs, attack boats and choppers (anything that has magazine-based weapons). As soon as I jump in the vehicle I fire off a round from any and all weapons that use a magazine and then hit reload, the game will then start the weapon's magazine reloading process. By the time you're up to the front lines and ready for combat you'll have an extra magazine for each weapon minus one shot which can give you a big edge versus another vehicle; they'll be waiting for a reload from 0 ammo while you have just short of another full volley to throw their way. Anyways thanks for all the great vids, keep 'em coming!

[@Fercurix]

Says Attackjet is OP so doesnt use it that much.. Uses AA with Active Radar Missiles instead of Zuni on Zavod the same video :P

[@trickzygaming8957]

Thanks LevelCap, I utilized these tips in my games and had massive improvements. So, I had to come back and thank you. Keep up the good work.

[@legostarwarsfreak333]

I just don't get how to fly jets. I feel like i would have to adjust the sensitivity of my mouse every time i change from infantry to jet. They just don't turn around!

[@PartyChicken407]

Use less suck & crying, more skill.

[@TheHippotail]

The best way to fly on PC is to set one of your keys to pull up/pull down. For example, I have spacebar set to pull up and left alt set to pull down. It makes it much easier to make quick turns

[@element9219]

I recommend using a gamepad to fly jets

[@greybongle]

FrankieonPCin1080p has a really good video on flying jets. its from bf3 but he says that everything is essentially the same

[@tomasviera36]

Element921 Much better solution! Just buy a good gamepad and change from mosue to gamepad every time you hop into one...

[@Cobyk26]

First video I've seen that actually has GOOD tips & strategy in it! Quality AND content. Thumbs UP!

[@JoeStaehle]

It is fucking impossible to play with a friend in BF4 WHY ARE THERE NO PARTIES?¿

[@gabet3477]

I'm guessing you've played CoD your whole life? You have to join a game then invite them.

[@Smljhndnsmr]

Pre-match 4-player squad formation was an option in BF3. But DICE stupidly excluded this option in BF4. Similarly, DICE also didn't carry over to BF4 the option to modify loadouts while at the game's main menu. There's so much FAIL in BF4.

[@KeigleCoach]

***** I agree that the ability to form squads prior to getting in a game is a big fail by Dice. That being said, it's still pretty easy to (on Xbox One at least) to get in a party with your friends then join a server and get on the same team. It rarely takes me more than a round or two to get a full squad of friends on the same team. I still don't understand why they got rid of pre-game squadding up though. Maybe it caused lag?!

[@JoeStaehle]

Gabe T I fucking hate cod i haven't played the game since MW2. It is just such a fiasco to play with a friend on bf4. When you want to join someone often times you end up on the other team and all kinds of stupid shit.

[@Smljhndnsmr]

Lucky Lindy DICE apparently thinks they need to fix the marriage between Frostbite 3 and BF4 before they can do anything else. However, I just don't see marriage (netcode) issues getting fully fixed...ever!

[@guitarfreakkkkk]

Definitely one of your best recent videos.

[@winters-rp]

I'll save everyone 10 mins: 1. Join a squad 2. Use vehicles

[@partykaspar]

This is one best Tips battlefield videos i have ever seen, good job Level Cap.

[@crplsteve]

"Let me fix your ride"-*boom rpg kills jet* classic.

[@xXStickymaster]

Thanks for the upload Level Cap! I've been wanting something like this. I hope some more see and will hopefully learn to play.

[@Kuza01]

I always play Conquest by myself. ;.;

[@zacjac99]

+Golden Age of Piracy same

[@andrewoid4711]

+Thugnificent same but i play any mode by myself. out of all 200 friends on psr very few play bf4

[@PvtSandwich]

I feel ya ;_;

[@jackwang4150]

Forever alone

[@SillyWittleGoose]

Five people talking about playing alone.... I'm seeing an opportunity

[@tylerbaughn2377]

Loved this video. Level, you should do videos on specific strategies for each map. That would be extremely helpful for all gametypes.

[@GameingIsLegendary]

my only problem is that every game I play I get those cod kids who think they are playing cod and don't play the damn objective... -_- FML

[@NoblesseObligedCP]

Don't be ignorant people always trying to blame cod player . There are plenty of people who only play bf and just suck and don't play the obj. Shit cod had great obj game mods and people play them . Do you even play cod or are you one of those bf players who just think they are better then cod plays. It's the ducking player not what game they play stop being one of those wanna be bf elitists

[@NoblesseObligedCP]

TheBroMcFo _ I don't hear anyone people never talk in battlefield.

[@nikolaiprotovski]

TheBroMcFo _ No i still do a lot of times I hear a kid in a jihad jeep screaming I GOT A KILL!!

[@demonfox79]

it really bums me out when I join a solo game and find most of my team mates or squad don't know how to play in strategic and tactics ways to take down objectives or try to win the game, thanks Cap for that cool video I hope every one share so we can enjoy the game a lot more

[@TaysonPlaysGuitar]

I've never been big on Conquest.

[@alphamoonman]

Conquest is really a mode that takes consistency among the team; teamwork and communication.

[@Ws_minion]

The attack jet is as powerful as it should be. One of the few well balanced areas of Bf4 in my opinion

[@bobalina6077]

Don't think about what your commander can do for you.... but what YOU can do for your commander.

[@ExultantCarn]

Ha Ha Ha

[@SINxWARLORD565]

I spend an hour on the test range before each gaming session warming up to piloting each vehicle and practicing different scenarios. It's smart to also use the dummy tanks to gauge how far above the object you need to aim to hit it at various ranges. If any of you haven't noticed the vehicles will tell you exactly how far you are fromo an object when you aim at it. So practice hitting them at 200, 150, 100, 50, ect yards and memorizing how you need to aim to hit those shots. That way when you're in battle you can quickly get your shots off without guessing where you need to aim. I did that with the HE rounds when i got the game and i can hit a fucking tick on the ground from 1,000 yards away now without even thinking about it.

[@connorlee17]

Ask not what your Commander can do for you, ask what you can do for your Commander.

[@khorney202]

Levelcap i love your channel you've helped me improve my effectiveness in this game and i dont think i would have got to level 102 without your tips n tricks and that of your fellow youtubers keep up the good work seth brogen

[@robmacdonald8656]

what servers are you playing on where the vehicles are unused? All the games I join the vehicles are all in use, and most of the team is sitting in ucap or spec mode waiting to spawn into the vehicles. There are no spare vehicles. none

[@RJtheMightyStang]

Ikr?

[@0s334]

thanks alot for the tips. This comes from someone who dont have any friends who play battlefield, hopefully this will increase my positive experience with the game

[@anedgyegyptian9678]

I fuckin' love the JDAM bomb, I shall call it "You're fucked up Bomb"

[@yunglonewolf9078]

I’ve noticed with lvlcaps tips, it’s simple but effective

[@MunaAzuki]

I have tried and tried to enjoy Conquest...but so boring! 5-10 minutes till my next kill or death.

[@Burkaflex]

you are doing it wrong then. My games on qonquest are packed with action

[@MunaAzuki]

Burka Flex Probably because I solo. Hardly any of my friends play BF4

[@tommihommi1]

Kenshima15 play 64 players on Zavod 311

[@SebastiendeBoisgency]

just a question are you camping bro ?

[@MunaAzuki]

***** I dont camp, i never do. You're taking my 5-10 minute comment too seriously. Of course im exaggerating. But it still stands that it takes while for me to get a kill...i dont have the patience for it.

[@BradwurstBAM]

Bind the jet turning to both mouse and for instance spacebar on your keyboard, when using the keyboard button you get the full turning speed while you can use your mouse for precise turrning when aiming

[@User-jn5fl]

"I don't particularly like using attack jets because I think they are somewhat overpowered" *switches to clip of him using ak5c* lol wow

[@dodoweirdo]

Are you insinuating that the AK5C is overpowered?

[@User-jn5fl]

Borderline yes :P

[@theskinstealer3865]

Michael M It's really not that overpowered, it doesn't exceed in anything, just a median for weapons. In close quarters it can be dominated by many of the pdw's and even assault rifles.

[@User-jn5fl]

Vu Du its one of the best weapons in the game and exceeds others at all ranges. I've used this gun before for about 2 service stars, and I dominated from cqc to longer ranges and everything in between.

[@theskinstealer3865]

I'm just saying other weapons can beat it in different situations.

[@gemizu4874]

Sneaking around on conquest with a suppressor capping all the flags is some of the most fun you can have in battlefield, And it's such a good distraction all it takes is 1 guy to cap some flags and the whole battle changes location.

[@Vreugdetoeter]

make a jet basics tutorial :)

[@BUwe]

Agree wholeheartedly with the advice to get into vehicles. Would like to add to that you have to mind the odds you're up against. Are you going solo for a cap and notice three engineers? Bail out, go for another flag, or at least take some distance so you're able to take out a couple of infy before engaging the last one(s) up close. As much as you're no use dying as infy, neither are you dying as a tank driver.

[@Teheleri]

Does anybody else get that feeling? Running through a tunnel then getting a feeling someone's behind you then you die. it happens everywhere to me, its so annoying and I have no idea how to stop it.

[@FriedEgg101]

Not learning to fly a jet Lvl sorry. If I lose a game of conquest because I can't fly a jet then something is very wrong.

[@CoalllAR]

He is saying your team will be better if your a well rounded player.

[@Raycing]

Excellent video my friend ! It's a great subject and you had some really good info, sometimes we forget ab out the most basic and obvious things.

[@denidemin]

Everything that lvlcap pointed out is nothing extraordinary, however I don't see that much players do even half of what he said. Hell, nowdays noboby even spots enemy's

[@forza1sra]

I push the spot button all the time.

[@lycaonofarcadia4048]

^this...the spot button is almost more valuable than your weapon, it should be used constantly with every class and vehicle. And yes, the idiots who focus on kills and nothing else are supremely annoying in conquest, i agree 100% that some good RTS skills can go a long way toward victory.

[@forza1sra]

Lycaon OfArcadia What is more annoying is when you need ammo/health and nobody on your team will give you ammo/health.

[@CooperLily21]

What do you all think about defending a high-traffic point versus being more "offensive" and attacking flags held by the enemy? I've never been a defender in conquest (felt I was sitting around doing nothing at times) but the more I think about it the more I can appreciate the value of it, especially in high-value areas like B and C on Paracel, for example.

[@MrBryanR]

***** Don't worry hes a PC ELITIST douchebag I understand you

[@MikaelKKarlsson]

The game sorely needs more videos like this. You could probably make a whole video about things that players should not to in order to be good for the team, yet are being done frequently.

[@CarbonitePlays]

I was ok with this vid until you started using the AA to shoot infantry...never agreed with that tactic and I think it's low as fuck to use it for that purpose. I honestly wish they would make the AA's gun turret unable to aim low enough to kill infantry so that people would stop abusing the fucking AA and use it for what it is supposed to be used for (e.g. taking down helicopters and defending your team from the air).

[@kelleroid]

Yea but it's basically helpless vs IFVs and Tanks. Hell I don't think it can even disable the big armored jeep doused in C4 before it collides with the AA into a fireball of doom.

[@RogerNbr]

The air on zavod consists of exactly 2 helicopters. You really think he would be more effective in spending his whole time just keeping them off the air? Its much more productive to help your team than to spend 90% waiting for air to spawn and then fleeing/being bailed.

[@CarbonitePlays]

That has more to do with vehicle spawn times than anything else...again it's a douchebag move to use AA constantly on infantry; it's at the point sometimes where I would rather have mobile AA removed completely and they stick the stationary AA back in so people can't just sit farming kills in a vehicle on infantry which was never intended as anti-infantry. Why people justify it is beyond me - the clue is in the name and there's already a shitload of vehicles that are on the ground (or in the air) which are meant to focus on infantry. Don't be that dick who likes to use AA to go on killstreaks against infantry - everyone knows you're just shit at doing anything else anyway.

[@CarbonitePlays]

Just because I have a knife in my kitchen which is good for cutting more things than just carrots and vegetables (usually the end of my finger when I try and cook!) does not mean I should use it to kill people - it's not the "done-thing" now is it?! My point is that even though the AA is well equipped with two miniguns to kill infantry this was not the purpose it was intended for. The issue is that the AA is so unbalanced against infantry, and people have used it against infantry for such a long time now, that it has almost become accepted when you get killed by AA as a soldier on the ground. Am I the only person that sees it this way?

[@CoDWikiRampant]

You mean so they will be better at camping in their spawn? no thanks

Greetings from a big fan from The Netherlands Quincy

[@jrauch6]

I can be a rather effective tank driver but I just hate vehicle combat, boring op slabs of metal sit there and slug at each other. Yeah there is a small strategy of place to hit to do more damage, but man it feels like slow as molasses turn-based combat. I can do infantry well, but I hate team deathmatch and domination, you get cheated out of your maps, only getting a tiny 5*5ft square. Also launchers besides maybe the stinger, are useless and ineffective at taking out vehicles.

[@dsegaming9894]

LoL do u even know how to play. Nothing is more useful than a sraw i the right hand

[@Booba-Fett]

Try infantry only, all the fun of conquest but without the vehicles. Much better imo, vehicles aren't balanced in BF4 so they ruin it for me. BF3 had it down though.

[@jrauch6]

Barry Beefcurtains I try but their aren't many servers, Ive so far only found 1

[@jrauch6]

[@Booba-Fett]

jrauch6 try clearing your filters entirely, I can usually find a good number. Not anywhere near as many as other servers, I'll admit.

[@PartyChicken407]

Here is a good strategy that works on rush more than conquest : Sometimes it's good to just distract people. I sometimes come rushing in on an ATV like a crazy bandicoot and drive in weird patterns all over the mcom areas just to draw attention and fire from the defenders. Totally messed up their focus and next thing you know, 3 mins later we have both points because the enemy got distracted and we moved in. It works.

[@legostarwarsfreak333]

And what if i don't want to just drive around? This makes no fun at all.

[@PartyChicken407]

45 seconds of driving around getting Road kills on an ATV is no fun? Lol - sounds more fun than camping at the back pretending you're ultra ninja commando operator. I said distract the enemy, I didn't say drive around for 5 hours and have no fun. Use some creativity kid

one thing I noticed today is a 4-1 or 5-1 conquest advantage bleeds enemy tickets VERY quickly. Like, my team was losing by about 180-20 or 100-20, and then suddenly we had 4-1 advantage on 3 gourges dam. By the time our tickets ran out, the enemy team was down to 10 tickets. Makes raiding opponents' rear objectives much more attractive.

[@AlwaysOnTheBattlefield]

I play by myself all the time :(

[@jessiegarcia71]

If you play ps4 I'll try playing with you :)

[@aweblade4]

Same here bro, want to team up?

[@AlwaysOnTheBattlefield]

Sure my username on PS4 is antmitchell99

[@aweblade4]

What about pc?

[@AlwaysOnTheBattlefield]

Sorry I don't have a gaming PC yet :/ although I am going to start building one in July

[@Michael-gh6nr]

Just got into the Battlefield series and these videos are very helpful. Hopefully they bring my game to the next level. Cheers!

[@tanishkumar6534]

I know right I just bought b f 4 so fun

[@soapmactavish1274]

What system do u guys play on?

[@Patrick-dj9dd]

+arun heer I play on PS4.

arun heer PS4

[@llJeezusll]

Really I thought the attack jets are pretty weak. They are weaker than the BF3 attack jets. You cant even kill a tank in a single straf in BF4. Until you get JDAM bombs or Hydra rockets.

[@PL-to8nv]

JDAM seems cool first but then you realise that they are just weak and they are probably the worst thing on attack jets

[@Rambotato]

You must be doing it wrong, even with the default setup you get, tanks are easily picked off in one strafe. you possibly need to make your angle of attack more vertical

[@tomasviera36]

But you rip through enemy aircraft and boats

[@PL-to8nv]

DonPimpNutz Yeah I know that they can take out a tank in one strafe but I strongly think that most of the others secondary wepons would also do the job well and they would be more polyvalent

[@PL-to8nv]

jorojouy parato Trying to hit an enemy aircraft with a JDAM while he is flying is pretty hard

[@M5YUILL]

Only time i've seen jets unused are when the enemy shoots them down in under 1 min because they have all the ACE pilots and the MAA in their spawn with range of the auto AA. So you aircraft just become target practice and score feeders or fast transports.

[@begeura]

Conquest rubber bands WAY to much on ps4. Basically to an unenjoyable level.

[@jon.wilson]

It should only rubberband on 64 man.

[@kingsteak5256]

xD1CE can only play 64 on ps4 and xbone

[@jon.wilson]

Liam Watts I play 32 man on PS4

[@jon.wilson]

Liam Watts Nevermind, I'm dumb

[@Nick-rd6qr]

Just find a server with at least a 4-bar(in the server browser). Works for me.

[@Red_AIert]

Also, if you don't want to have to control recoil or be challenged at all, be sure to use the AK5C. The low recoil, solid ROF, and a class leading bullet velocity allow anyone with thumbs, on console, to do well. It's like DICE put a Call Of Duty gun in Battlefield 4 for those who don't like to be challenged.

[@sh0ckzgaming792]

I don't get it, in bf4 I do average, in bf3 I fuck up everyone in the lobby. Do more noobs play bf3? xD

[@danshady09]

Haha I know same thing for me too

[@Krakon01]

it's cheaper? if yes more kids can play it :)

[@NYG5]

Bakudoesgaming you're also not at risk of being shot in the ass as often with the smaller player population.

[@zakattack1945]

Noobs play BF3 and the netcode is much better.

[@AN1Guitarman]

A strategy I've used that helps my team when their behind on tickets is to take the transport heli to the flight ceiling, and just below it and fly over points that are being captured. This way when a guy get's killed he can spawn right above the point in the chopper and drop in from above. this eventually overwhelms the enemy at that point and we capture it. I've joined may a server where they're loosing by half, and have almost no capture points and it turns the game around for a win.

[@GamesLegitament]

I fucking suck with the attack jet.

[@Raycing]

oh yeah me too and the chopper too, that's why I'm quickly becoming a professional Gunner

[@CoDWikiRampant]

Raycing My friend one time was on the ground in a tank and i got in the chopper and in 3 strafes took out 2 tanks and an lav

[@whanowa]

Tactics is most important for any kind of playing style in BF. Many people ignore this.

[@rikirikibis]

This videos confirm my opinion you are a COD-like player. It's all about charging the enemy, taking fire, returning fire, using tanks for full frontal charges. You lack completely any tactical approach to CQ. Most of players cap a flag and then leave it to be recapped after 5 secs by enemies. The real strategy in CQ is to cap AND defend certain flags which are in strategic positions. This way you prevent enemies from getting points, you provide optimal respawn points for teammates and you allow teammates to focus on other flags. Most of the flags are captured (on 24 player servers) by one or two random guys because they are left un-attended. A flag can be easily defended by a team of 2 people. A 4 man squad can defend 2 close-by flags on bigger maps. With one man in jet, no vehicle can even come close. That means getting less kills and points but it also means giving your faction better chances of winning the game. That's strategy. You are just a slightly evolved COD player. Your videos just speak for you.

[@leroydogekins3159]

well said

[@Taubsiii]

I like the Air to Ground missiles in the jet, because I use the camera to spot and shoot infantry in it. Try it

[@TR1GG13RhappieM]

I've played over 500 hrs alone, I'm such a lonely fuck

[@TheHolsomback]

im close haha i have a little over 400 hours

[@kaghyo]

***** I want to hug this sad dude :( hahahahaha

[@TR1GG13RhappieM]

[@mrkingofworld2]

After 10+ years of Battlefield games, someone finally explains Conquest game mode to us. About time.

[@5kyEye]

The word "tactic" is so overused in Bf.

[@FischBlubbBlubb]

it is a tactical game.

[@5kyEye]

Wache von Weißlauf No :D Ghost Recon is a tactical game. Company of Heroes is a tactical game. But definately not Bf.

[@FischBlubbBlubb]

then you are just playing it wrong

[@5kyEye]

Wache von Weißlauf I dont think so.

[@TheDelta07sev]

SkyEye i think so. in order to win you need to employ many tactics, thus making the game strategic.

[@fyrenicelegendary890]

Dude honestly these tip vids help me a lot, I went fricken 42-2 after using all your tactics!! Plz reply level cap if the score is good :D

[@OnlyTimefps9]

All I can say is rush is dead and I barely played it ;_;

[@velvetthunder8]

It's not dead, it just smells funny.

[@FabianR87321]

Let me add the strategy thats most valuable to me. Good teams put pressure on the right points, bad teams just think about fighting. So it really comes down to looking at the big map ALL the time. Sometimes a team takes all points at the map´s peripheral without costs and then locks down the other team in an excessive fight over one or two central flags. And why does the loosing team come back to the mass fight when the outer flags are clearly ungarded? Because they died in gunfights with individual players and are out for revenge. Never seek revenge or start nemisis battles, always look at the whole map!

[@Hfajardo97]

Jets are useless, at least on the console side.

[@ItsTyTheNinjaGuy101]

I'm on console. I still wreck things up with a controller :P

[@_guitarjun_]

ItsTyTheNinjaGuy101 current or next gen? Because I play on ps3, and it just isn't the same.

[@HalXV]

Well it depends, I know some people on console that do really really well con console with jets mainly because when using jets it is easier to turn using a controller than a mouse pad, there are pros an cons, when using a mouse you gain more precision when using guns but in the case of jets I'd say controllers have an advantage, and, if you ask me both mouse/keyboard and Controller do very well when using an heli.

[@_guitarjun_]

That's all true. My point is that there's one jet for each team on ps3 and much fewer maps with any planes at all. The maps are also smaller. So jets end up always crashing and once you take out the enemy jet, you can't do much

[@ItsTyTheNinjaGuy101]

Arjun Srivastava I've played on both and it's pretty similar if your skills are up to par. Maybe it's just that on PS3 there's less to shoot at because of the player count.

[@repeatrepeatrepeat]

Finally a very useful video. I always play solo as i do not have any battlefriends(everyone here is only cs, that too 1.6 only) to play with. And i guess this is applicable to bf3 also.

[@shamrockshawtty]

BF4 is STILL a rubber- banding piece of shit!

[@ExOSkillz]

I agree, try Asian servers though, I find that 2:3 of them are rubberband free! Hope it helps

[@whiskeylung]

"Ex-Zach-Ly" I see what you did there at 5:08 levelcap

[@LoneCastaway]

haha now i'm not sure if this was on purpose or not, but i always find it funny whenever he includes a little humor in his otherwise serious videos.

[@mgcarrigan]

Here's some tips, not like I'm even close to levelcap but, don't waste the vehicles, ditching a tank or boat or chopper gives your enemy another asset and your team one less. Use the quad/bike/jet ski. If your doing a c4 troll drive away from the spawn and switch to the passenger seat, drop your c4 and ammo box. Now you should leave the spawn because as you try to switch back someone can spawn and you'll think your hitting the gas but boom instead.

[@noytagaming]

Thank you for this, my friends need to see this
