It Took Me Seven Years To Find Battlefield 1…

[@kimmortensen6786]

The best Battlefield ever. Dice have put tons of love in this game. I played from launch and still Play it.

[@Tzalmavet]

I'm glad other people have this opinion. We can reminisce about Battlefield 3 and 4 but Battlefield 1 was fantastic and didn't deserve the hate. EA DICE was ambitious with the WW1 setting but they put in the time and effort to make it work. Hard to believe it's been 8 years already. If Battlefield 1 released tomorrow it would not feel like an 8 year old game.

[@BloodyKvnt]

Is BF1 PlayStation population still alive or no

[@kimmortensen6786]

@@BloodyKvnt its so much alive on ps5 anyway

[@strillium4407]

A couple of things in case you don't know: 1. When you're on a point, if it is contested it will show the point letter along with a red and blue bar just above it. The red part indicates the number of enemies on the capture point. 2. All the single-action snipers bar the Geweher 95 and M91 Carbine have a sweet spot range - a certain range for each sniper where they do 100 damage or more to the body, so you can kill in one shot without needing a headshot. There is a setting which if you turn it on, enemies in your sweet spot when ADSing are clearer, whilst enemies outside that range are more blurry. If you are getting looked at by a sniper, a white glint means you are outside their sweet spot range, a rainbow glint means you are inside it. Some snipers' sweet spots are at greater ranges, so which gun you choose depends on the map

[@sethpeterson1934]

What’s the best sniper?

[@snipedduck743]

@@sethpeterson1934 i would say the Gewehr 98, because of its superior bullet velocity.

[@Rayyvan]

whats that setting u talking abt?

[@cinnamonbutter7658]

I never knew this. Thank u 😼

[@ZoltanIstvanMarossy]

​@@sethpeterson1934 depends on the map. There's a "best" sniper for distance/aggression

[@joshgrimm8443]

This game mode works by giving the defenders all the flags at the start but no tickets. The atackers have to try and take all the flags to win or reach 1000 tickets first. The more flags you hold, the faster you will gain tickets. Also a huge settings advantage in the minimap is to turn up the on foot distance to at least 150m so you can see targets much farther away.

[@origgim]

minimap tip is clutch

[@Creatureofclay]

You figured out the squad thing and the spotting by yourself which were my main two pieces of advice. Definitely utilize the key that lets you see the whole map, especially when using spotting flairs. Spotting is super important in this game and I’m basically spamming the spot key every time I look out of cover.

[@thebuckle85]

When you catch on fire, lay down.

[@budgieishere]

Spamming Q especially useful in BF1 for spotting; this doesn’t work in BF5. I’d always recommend getting in a squad and if the spawns / support from them isn’t useful just squad hop. Helps a lot on conquest assault where a squad may have gotten through the frontline. Very much enjoying this content

[@thebrotaco6609]

Will, you should make your mini map larger and increase the zoom. The on-foot minimap zoom radius refers to how zoomed in the radar is for infantry gameplay. The higher the value, the further out you can see. This will help with map awareness.

[@carldickenson5776]

Great vid, use your K bullets to harass enemy vehicles whenever possible. Shoot flares on the ground close to you so you get some intel on closer enemies, you need it if it goes cqb as you've only got your pistol. Unlock the Mars Automatic pistol. The bf1 deagle!

[@biggusgibbus8144]

Play the same forward sniper role, but try the Martini Henry rifle with iron sights. It's absolutely addictive.

[@FOR-VALOUR]

Russian 1895 trench is fun too but you don't get the one-bang.

[@TheNo85307]

Took me 6 years to get back to the action. A couple days ago I bought Revolution edition and I’m so hooked again. Still atmospheric masterpiece.

[@ivrynite]

The ticket imbalance at the start is because these maps with this expansion were launched with Conquest Assault (CQA) as opposed to the standard Conquest (CQ) game mode. In CQA, one team is the attacking team, and one defends. Because of this, the defending team starts with control of the map and so the attacking team is given a bonus to their score in order to balance the fact that the defenders will rack up points as long as they control the majority of the map. One other factor in play is that if the attacking team takes all of the flags, the defenders can only spawn on their squad mates and can be completely eliminated from the game.

[@harshityadav-wb7ob]

Was watching your previous two battlefield videos. It was really funny and I hoped you will drop another one soon and here it is😂

[@alropa]

Glad that you caught on to the importance/benefits of being in a squad… the quality of your squad will make a huge difference to your performance. Ideally you want at least 1 medic, a squad that generally stays together and that are advancing/playing the objectives, to provide good spawn spots. Don’t be afraid to squad hop during the game if you find your squad mates are not supporting you. Regarding “skipping” the revive period … even if you skip, the game will not allow you back into the match any faster. You just have to wait in the redeploy/map screen instead. When you are waiting for a revive the white bar that fills under “Next Deployment” will show you when you can actually spawn back into the game. So realistically, you may as well wait until this bar is at least 70% full before skipping, giving medics more time to potentially get over to you. If by 70% there are still no medics nearby then you may be better off skipping so you can start to consider your next spawn from the map screen. Regarding medics, they only show as “nearby” to you if they are (I believe) within 20m, so often just because a medic doesn’t show as nearby, doesn’t mean there isn’t one relatively close - and one who may well have eyes on you and be moving towards you. In the same way you can spot enemies using Q, medics can “spot” downed friendlies which is when you get the UI change to “incoming medic”. They can trigger this even if they are outside of the standard 20m range (so a good medic would “spot” you early, if they are at longer range, to give you an early warning that they’re incoming (and therefore advising you not to skip).

[@ianig9]

A much better game in this video, Wil. It’s great to watch someone learn as they go and get better every time. Cheers!

[@Buckhunt]

A big help with ur team as a scout is spotting flare on contested caps, example is at c cap when u see it is contested at the top of the screen. I would also recommend trying to play the other classes just to get an understanding of how they work and how to help ur team and how to combat those classes.

[@VincentAdultmanbearpig]

Great game. Glad to see you going back to some of the classics.

[@ivanstrydom8417]

Thank you so very much for not using braindead clickbait thumbnails nor headings. You immediately get a like just for that. Your content is also intelligent and enjoyable, you have a new subscriber.

[@fredorderfidele9204]

useful tips: 1. Always spam Q for spotting enemys 2. When possible, join a full squad for more spawn-opportunities 3. If medics are around when you die, don't skip the revive opportunity, they may just need some time to get to you 4. Be aware of the sweet spot for one-shot kills when sniping 5 Try to bayonet-charge people. Might be rarely useful, but extremely satisfying when it works

[@dgjanes917]

1:30 go prone when you're on fire to put it out and take less damage

[@TheSimpelsimon]

great content!! keep it comin! ...improvement 100% easily!

[@reallyeffingcooltechnodude]

Smokes are great for advancing in these open maps. In all maps to be honest. It's fun to push through with loads of teammates. You definitely need to join a squad. Your squadmates are spawn points.

[@gibbonchio]

I love to see your improvements on bf1

[@pegsy7206]

Good tip - go in your settings. Make your mini map bigger and you can change the zoom level too so you can see further on the mini map! I use it so much so its good being larger.

[@Insightmovieflix]

Always amazing seeing someone get hooked on the best shooter game ever!

[@dgjanes917]

I believe you can zoom out your minimap a bit, which would make your flares a little more useful. Also, if you want to make the game a little more immersive, you can change the size of your hud elements

[@floschuller]

one thing you should definitely do: The Easter Egg to unlock the Peacekeeper Revolver. Jackfrags has made a few videos about this and it would be worth a few videos, because there are much easier Easter eggs. 😅😅

[@HazelS71]

Tip for sniping The spotter scope can see over cover just like a submarines periscope!!

[@mrsickukxx1332]

Nice Will. About the Medics…If you get taken out you can request a medic and any medic in the vicinity can also tag/spot you and let you know they’re coming for a revive…you should see info on the bottom left telling you how many meters away the medic is. So you can keep an eye on that so you know if the medic gets killed en route. Hope that helps you matey 👍 Peak Battlefield 🔥

[@HazelS71]

Brilliant guy! you deserve more subscribers!!! Keep the passion alive! BF1 SO good!! GG Godbless Will

[@twenty514]

I don't know if anyone already said this, but increasing the size and zoom out on your minimap will give you more information and make that info easier to see.

[@happytime2781]

easy ways for you to improve: 1 spam Q for spotting ALL THE TIME 2. You know Jack, play and learn from him 3. play medic or support - as newbie that easiest roles for you + you can help team the most even being bad at game If you really must play as sniper with your in close playstyle take guns with iron sight. Gun you play with big magnification is designed to snipe from the back

[@xsealentseafoodcompany188]

Great video Will!

[@skolder]

Always good to be on a squad Will, so you can deploy in your team mates location.

[@greeenestbasterd6896]

What a game! Loved the Russian infantry sniper and had a mate who was a demon with SMLE carbine.

[@whozyopimp21]

I started playing BF1 again after many years a few months ago and haven't stopped playing (xbox one).

[@Propjecompas]

I like placing down tripwires on my flanks as a scout. Especially helpful in trenches!

[@ChoiiXMasters]

The Limpet Charge has the biggest explosive Power in the Game besides the Bombers Bombs, if you stick it to a Tank its so devastating (it sticks to Walls before exploding after a short Delay)

[@krocketonboost5236]

One of the all time gems in gaming. Released in 2016 and looks better than the games of today

[@NXSHHH.]

Dont't forget to join a squad, you'll have more spawn points and can work together to push certain objectives for example

[@lukhen6016]

I‘d LOVE to see you play some Hunt:Showdown 1896!

[@dannyx2737]

Join a squad from the menu. If playing recon use spot flares and periscope to help your team. They spot everyone

[@techmonkey11]

Press prone to roll out the fire faster. If you are crouched/standing and running around you will take full damage. Go prone, you cut that down drastically.

[@shawnyscore6988]

This game is a GEM. A Masterpiece. I do hope the next one puts BF back on the map.

[@topguyz]

Take a shotgun to Argonne Forest. Or do snipes on Empires Edge or St. Quentin Scar. Don't sleep on some of the medic weapons.

[@southernfried19]

I just got back in myself after a LONG hiatus. I doubt I’ve played since 2018 or so. Unbelievably good game. I was always a BF3 fan, but if I take the nostalgia glasses off, I believe BF1 is the best game in the franchise.

[@thebrotaco6609]

The easy way to essentially guarantee a win on this map as attackers is to take the motor bike on the A flag and drive it on the edge of the map towards E and cap the flags at the rear of the map (E and F). As soon as you do that it’s essentially game over for the Germans as it’s nearly impossible to recover from the 300 point advantage the British start off with. Although that also kinda makes the map less fun to play IMO.

[@paulhancock]

I missed most of these games as well... I was massively into gaming, but while I was starting businesses in my mid-late 20's I just got crippling anxiety feeling I was wasting precious time by playing video games so I just stopped for years. Ten years later I'm allowing myself to get back into gaming, but the problem is... I am absolutely sh*t at pretty much all of them. To say I'm rusty is an understatement so I just end up watching streamers instead! It's unfortunate.

[@d3rpybac0n83]

You definitely want to be spamming Q and be marking people because unlike BF5, it's quite powerful and if it even has a cooldown, it's virtually nonexistent. Another tip is you definitely want to lie down whenever you have been caught on fire as long as you have moved away from whatever is burning you. And I'm sure people have probably told you, but in case no one has, the flare gun has the ability to mark enemies on the mini-map if within its marking radius, so definitely use your initial 2 flares on marking things

[@techmonkey11]

Damn, ran right past a prone enemy with an at gun out at 9:06... You hate yo see it! Nice shooting though, keep playing mate, hope to meet on a EU-US server sometime! Join a squad, you can get squad spawns, but i think youve done that in other rounds 👍

[@Tonesnob72]

i enjoy sniping as much as the next guy but eventually your gonna need medics support and assault the three classes that actually take points so you don’t sit there and trade kills all game long while you bleed tickets. This game is great but on xbox now all the 150 just swap to the same side stacking the odds so they can have a relaxed win. If Dice stopped this team swapping just because a team is lower in rank would make the game much more fun.

[@Stack0fBread]

Mr. Gore is surely pleased with the improvements

[@vanciity]

back then i didnt have a capable enough pc to play this game so i just used to watch video clip of bf1 on zynxise channel now finally i can play it !!!!1

yea every match is different. you'll know if medic ratio is good and funny thing is that if medics are willing to do medic work :) then you can wait for the revive. also your minimap is too small
