[@Randal1993Randal]

Let's be honest - that and cheaters are the only big issues of this game. It's overall the most solid, most climax BF made so far that only need more love during production/support. Maybe some maps would need some love too, but either that - yeah, I'd rather stick to BF1 than BF:V, BF4 or upcomming BF2042.

[@don945646]

@@Randal1993Randal yeah the random bullet deviation was bullshit

[@epsilon2843]

@@don945646 TLDR: yeah it kinda sucked sometimes but I think it was actually kinda essential to game balance. BF1 was so great in every other aspect that I literally don’t even care enough to be mad about that. It’s definitely messed me up in a few occasions here and there but I think it’s a necessary evil almost. Imagine how horrible the long range combat would be if every gun was pinpoint accurate. You would get screwed hard any time you dare to try and move across any given field. Look at the part of this video when TBAG had the selbslater(definitely butchered that) on Rupture when he had some longer range engagements and take a moment to think how it would almost be TOO easy to kill at range if there wasn’t a bit of deviation. I think it actually helps allow people to move along and push into objectives and closer combat situations which most guns are meant for, whilst scouts can still nail some long range shots. Yeah, it can suck being suppressed as a sniper and having a shot deviate because of that, but would any sniper (the individual not the rifle) really be able to hit a super accurate shot whilst being suppressed to hell by an mg? In most battlefield games, you could shoot like crazy at a sniper and just miss and get sniped by them, but the suppression in bf1 paired with deviation allows you to potentially counter a sniper in long distance open areas. It opened up a whole new avenue of legit tactics and I really can’t be mad at anyone smart enough to utilize them.

[@kmancometh]

BF1 is still my favorite Battlefield game. This game actually required teamwork and tactical understanding of your weapons to win. Bullet deviation was intended to slow the gameplay down so you don't run and gun COD style. This is WWI. Could you imagine if this game had no bullet deviation/recoil? The atmosphere would be ruined by MG and automatic weapon users. There is also a reason why they made bolt action rifles very powerful. In my opinion, this game wouldn't have been successful without punishing players that want to be COD players. This makes every weapon viable and unique to use and forces you to understand the strengths and weaknesses of your gun. Skill is actually required to use weapons and teamwork is essential for players to use each others unique abilities to help out and win.

[@deathkorpstrooper8228]

BF1 is a game where there were moments of "This is WW1". I still remember massive bayonette charge on Hills of Verdun and fightning in melee after that. It is a great game, and I'm excited to play it once more (after I redownload it, of course).

Started watching you when you started on bf1 and the reason I subbed was because your skill on controller blew me away. For the first few minutes of gameplay I was convinced you were playing MnK. Cant wait to see what you have instore for us when 2042 finally drops!! Talking about 2042 a little story of my BF career! I've played Battlefield since 1942, even remember the day I bought the game. I was on holiday with family in Malaysia and I convinced them to buy a $5 pirate copy that I could only use offline. It was definitely enough though cause I knew instantly that this game would be a hit. Now after many sequels and a series that has almost hit 20 Years! We finally get a new instalment and while I know that everyone has their gripes with the beta and other issues lets just remember the legacy of this franchise! DICE are an amazing developer with many hardworking staff that have been working 15 hour days to bring us this new game. I have been part of the BF2, BC2, BF3, BFH, BF4, MOH (im including this cause DICE made the MP),BF1, BFV betas and all of them have been absolute shitshows. But we all know the amazing game they have under the rough edge, we know the potential. And while it may seem we are just buying into a glorified development cycle (which we are lets not get it twisted) we ultimately know DICE will pull through and deliver another incredible entry !

I just came back about a month ago after a 9 month hiatus. BF1 is my all-time favorite and it still holds up. I play on Xbox and don't know exactly how much time I've logged but I know I'm in the top 1% for that... What's funny is that today I was messing around in an empty server just fine tuning some settings and I stumbled upon something that clicked and suddenly my potential just got even better... As infantry I'm exclusively Support cause it's just my favorite. My favorite gun is the Parabellum and I've got somewhere over 12,000 service stars with it (my #2 had been the lMG 08/18, with 5,500ish stars). So I've always known that those guns have the option for directing recoil left, center, or right... And I'd just always assumed a mindset of: the Parabellum's recoil is mostly side-to-side, so rather than exacerbate that, I'll choose center recoil. And the lMG 08/18's recoil is mostly vertical, but since I know vertical recoil is easier to control versus horizontal, I choose center recoil. And so on. I basically figured that it would just have to be some quirky preference for some players to play with. *BUT THEN* it occurred to me as I was just randomly messing around with that feature that the way I hold my controller and my thumb, when I pull down to control recoil, I have a tendency of pulling down, diagonally to the right... I never really thought about that too hard. I was aware of it but if I think about it, I can pull straight down.......... But here's the thing; since my natural tendency is to pull down and to the right, what the recoil direction thing allows you to do is counter that. It's so damn simple and I'm embarrassed for it not clicking earlier, but yeah, that's the trick. Damn!! The Parabellum is the most difficult gun in the Support class arsenal to use. It has some of the highest recoil stats, and to top it off, it's mostly horizontal, which is more difficult to control than vertical.. So as I had my Parabellum set for recoil-left, it dawned on me that it was countering my natural diagonal downward pull...... So what this means is that now I don't have to think about reminding myself to pull straight down!! The gun is pulling more to the left now, but since I'm pulling to the right, it balances it out!!! SUDDENLY THE PARABELLUM IS NOTICEABLY EASIER TO CONTROL!!!! LOL!!! Get that ass ready.
