@Neville Mostly because: A. They see that your mashing space bar (your revive icon flickers) B. There are enemies around (You wouldn't believe the amount of idiots that demand me to suicide rush in to revive when they have 5 enemies at their body) C. They just have given up revives because everyone skips it or they're just new to the game, which happens but hopefully these will learn.
I know right? I have to play medic because everyone else is so bad at it on my team usually. I'll be a medic halfway through the game and still get most revives and on the top of the leaderboard.
BFViking Tru but only when the situation is right. Not every death warrants a revive especially when it could kill you and the guy u revive that's a pro tip ☺
tips for medics...if the icon above a dead team member is flashing they are skipping the revive. so don't rush over to revive them they may just be trying to save you from getting killed. revive the guys with a solid icon above their corpse's.
Pro Tips: If you're a Medic and see the Revive Icon flashing, don't rush in. Either the dead guy is an idiot, he's trying to save you from an ambush, or he just wants to change his class. I skip revive if I know the Medic will die if he tries to save me. So don't think that badly of Revive Skippers, maybe they're just trying to save your skin so you can be useful elsewhere.
People have no idea how important this is for their team and how it can also hurt the team. I've sent some of the squad leaders messages to unlock the squad but they say no....like wtf?!
Stig Player This is soooo good to me when playing the enemy though. So many squad wipes! Hate it when its our team though because they are essentially just giving points away.
Here's a pro tip! If you go prone before a cavalryman manages to slash at you with his sword you'll actually dodge it. You can however still die from being trampled by a horse though so watch out.
It's cool you can blow the doors up but EA needs to allow players with the wrench to repair them like how you could repair bridges in other battlefield games, tried last night and you can't fix the doors after they are destroyed
I don't mean there aren't enough buttons in general, I mean there isn't enough buttons because this game already uses all of the buttons available. To further my point, try to change your spot button to a useless button on your controller in the game.
thats to button to open doors, use turrets and pretty much used every 5 seconds and i don't feel like accidently putting a bayonet every time i miss the button to open a door.
They might have been obvious for you, but there are plenty of other people in the comments who didn't know these tips. Next episode I'll be featuring a lot of the tips from this comments section, so do you have anything to add? :)
When you die, DONT FUCKING SKIP AHEAD IF YOU SEE A MEDIC COMING RIGHT AT YOU. I've died probably 1000 times because of 11 year olds with add who can't wait an extra 10 seconds for me to revive them
... and I'm still waiting to get a revive ... :-) ... I often skip if I'm getting shot from multiple directions, just to give an explanation why somebody wanna die. Could be you died cause there are enemies - don't try to rambo-revive. I think the symbol flashes if you push the skip-button - seen it several times. Just be aware of it.
If you've hit the spot button too many times it goes into a cool down mode, that is why it doesn't work every time. It keeps people from spamming the spot button and it working like it did in bf4.
that glitch has been since years, i still remember getting it in bf3.. I bet you might have and amount of button touches per time, otherwise you will press the spot button like crazy around the map
+Jeff B-c No he didn't... He's already in the main menu, and will be there for some time. EA asked me to make those videos specifically for that, this video they did not.
hey westie can you maybe do a short vid about the best magification for various wep. for example i was having no luck with the mondragon storm at 2x mag but when i switched to 1.25 its heeps better. also can you weigh in to directional recoil?
Protip: Play your class correctly. As Assault it is your job to take out vehicles, as a Medic it is your job to revive and heal teammates and as Support GIVE AMMO FOR F*CK SAKE!!!
I don't see why people skip revives all it does it make you wait in the loading screen for like years and by the time that happens your team could have revived you Pro Tip: Don't try take groups on unless you know your gonna succeed, a good way to take a group out is run back and pick one off as the idiotic players chase you thinking it's TDM lol Pro Tip: STOP GOING FOR KILLS AND CAP THE OBJECTIVES in conquest, 9 times out of 10 players will think the kills will help them level up fast, actually no you get more points for capping and playing the objective so I'd suggest going for kills when they come for your flags or your tryna cap them Pro Tip 3: Scouts get good and stop camping on rooftops and hilltops it's annoying how teams loose because most of players are camping and not helping their team so they loose them they wonder why they lost Pro Tip 4: Use Gas or Grenades to breach into flooded rooms, if you want a room where there is like 4 or 5 guys rather than knifing them take them all out with a Nade or flush them with your Gas/Flash Bangs it really does help Pro Tip: Stop Knifing when you have 5 enemies plus in front of you, You wanna stay alive? Use your Guns that's what they are there for Pro Tip 5: Bayonet charging will allow you to escape but then your stood there thinking I can't run, but it's a good idea to do if there is cover you can get too Pro Tip 4.20: blaze it Pro Tip 69: you know what to do ;) Pro Tip 666: T-bag after you give them your Shovel or whatever in there assholes to show them you are indeed a c**t Pro Tip 360: Shit Bucket No Sex, remember battlefield is your pussy, Fuck SHIT UP!!!!!!!
I have another Pro Tip: When someone is camping in a house or on a roof you can thow a limpet charge inside, or shoot at a AT Mine to blow up the WHOLE building (and it doesn't even matter if you place it on the 1st or 2nd floor). ;)
Don't forget even your normal guns do damage to planes, given that they're close enough and you actually hit them. You can easily do 15-20 damage to a plane flying over you if you have a normal 30 round gun. And to the snipers, use your K bullets on armored vehicles or planes. Lots of damage and easy kills/points if other snipers are doing it too!
Tip: Use the spot button at one of your own medics if you need health. If your need ammo, you can also it on support players. A flashing, blacks bubble will appear over your head. Also, medics and support players - be aware of that!
If you are support, support your team with ammo! Dozens of times I had press I need ammo like 20 times before the player got it and gave me some ammo. And sometimes even that doesnt work , you literally have to jump around them and smack them so they finally realize
Slide when cornering, it makes you a smaller and faster target, but you can still shoot. put the gas mask on before throwing the gas if you are going to rush towards the gas, you will save some time and you will may catch the enemy putting their gas mask or retreating. limpy charge can be used to do some damage on enemies that are chasing you and can be used to take down buildings. in amiens, you can destroy some higher buildings rooftops with mortars, allowing you to kill shooters in-door behind your cover.
Pro tip of Xbox one Ik this because that my system if your a medic you can press RB and it will throw a medical pack to who ever is in need of Heath which is really helpful in getting those player across a hallway or street you can simply throw a medical pack across the map the help your team ! Try it
Pro tip: when sniping do not look directly at your enemy especially other snipers when aiming down your scope. This will help reduce your scope glare from them spotting you and give you the edge to get the drop on them till they are looking the other way or give you time to line up the shot for those long range bullet drops. I did this on previous bf games and always worked and as of now seems to be working on this one too. I probably screwed myself giving this out but helps those who love sniping haha
The revive icon will blink if the player that is down is holding down the spacebar. Prevents medics from risking their lives for a revive if they see a downed player skipping a revive.
Pro tip when using sub machine guns and machine guns the recoil setting is actually very useful, for instance if you are sprinting and a player is of in the distance set the recoil to left so you don't have to aim for them the recoil will give you more shots,another one is get used to or find a good scope setting for snipers it will help you and it will also let you unlock the class rank 10 weapons a lot faster
The battlefield gamer Koren675 holy shit yes. I hear people complaining that people when they die just immediately hold the button and go back to the respawn menu. but this is because Medix literally walk right over top of your body and do not bother to revive you.
Hey westie, learnt a couple of things from that video thanks, it would be great to see you do a war stories video once a week, I subscribed to THE GREAT WAR channel over a year ago and it's fantastic but lacking the individual touch, it would be cool if you could tell us more about the actual men and women who fought. I know that that is quite a time consuming ask but it will add a lot more depth to a great game especially if it's a short series and each video concentrates on stories from each map in BF1. All the best mate, and I'll catch you. . . . In the next video.
i really wana be good at this game im terrible this my 1st time with battlefield as iv had enough of wall running hopefully i get there either way staying away from cod and titanfall
A really, REALLY useful mechanic for reviving teammates while being fired upon is to pull out a sliding revive. The sliding mechanic is being featured in many videos for cool takedowns, such as sliding collateral kills (XfactorGaming), or sliding hipfire kills (JackFrags), but none have ever mentioned a sliding revive before. Which is really helpful, not only for throwing people off their lead while attempting a revive while fired upon, but also to keep you alive and on the move while actually pulling out the revives.
The bayonet does NOT affect recoil but it does affect the time it takes to bring your weapon up out of a sprint. I know what it says but this is DICE so...
I have a pro tip for all you battlefield players out there... When you're a medic... FUCKING REVIVE ME, when your a sniper... FUCKING SPOT THE ENEMY, when you're assault... DON'T JUST IGNORE THE FUCKING TANK and finally... if you're support(I know not many of you are)... BUT THROW FUCKING AMMUNITION, and now even more lastly.... if you're a squad, just do us all a favour and MARK THE FUCKING OBJECTIVES
The bayonet DOES NOT negatively effect recoil. It only effects recoil if you set it to left or right. In that case it offsets the recoil but does not make it and more accurate. It is just a preference thing. SprintRecoverTimeMultiplier 0.266 and enabling the charge. You aren't the only one. Many youtubers have accidentally helped spread this misinformation.
Here's a pro tip which you already said. SPOT PLAYERS! I don't know how many times I've died to players on Argonne Forest because I didn't know where they were. Another tip, don't use a bayonet on Assault weapons. Sure it's good to have another way to attack, but you'll have nearly no chance at medium to long range.
A pro tip is to change the settings of the minimap. So it gets a bit bigger and zoomed out, so you actually can use it. Options then gameplay settings, scroll down to HUD. My settings, on foot zoom 160, vehicle zoom 200 and flight zoom 400. Ur welcome. ;)
Is it true you can snipe people out of tanks with K bullets if you hit the right spot? I've read that it's possible and have been trying it out with no success. I did get a critical hitmarker color(head shot hitmarker) while shooting the heavy tank with the k bullets, and it did a lot more damage than usual but didn't get me a kill.
Another tip for crossing water. When crossing water you might swim if the water is deep enough, like on Fao Fortress there are many streams and you usually sail through them which delays shooting if you see an enemy. Instead when crossing look up while running and you will just run across.
Nice tips Westie even though I knew most of them lol. I have a tip. Did you know when sprinting you can jump and slide just as you land? Probably a stupid tip but I found it interesting. Could make for some cool techniques. Plus if you know you're definitely going to get melee killed, throw your grenade and by the time the enemy has killed you, he will die from your grenade. XD
Another pro tip, if you have a squad member with bonus xp going, blow the horse up or however you want to turn it into glue. Lol. Nice little bonus, it's a little mean but it's a digital horse, I am a pet lover so calm down, just saying you get some extra points is all( dynamite and limpet charge" cough cough, so fun " cough cough) lol
Pro Tip: The Shield on the backside of the Ligthtank has an modfier so you take less dmg than you get hit, so always drive backwards. Makes the Ligthtank even stonger;)
Guys... I think i found something in the bf1 campain. In the mission through mud and blood (Breakdown) i saw 4 lights in the sky (not stars)! I just recorded it, but what do i do with the clip? It could be a bug but i dont thinks so.
You should have said the grenade tip. if a grenade is coming at you and you have no where to go , go prone because you will survive with about 5-10 percent health.
Hi Westie, not sure if it's common knowledge or not.. But a tip that I find myself doing a lot, is that it can be a useful tactic to get on a vacant horse, throw down some ammo and health ... Jump back off and refill flares .. It's extremely handy in operation mode :)
These are not pro tips; I have seen a guy doing evasive movements by crouching and standing quickly in an very close combat. I don't know the efectiveness of that, but the guy seemed to dodge all bullets. Btw, a plane can be disabled by a single shot of a rifle; planes also have weak spots. Also forgot to mntion that minimap magnification is a must.
One pro tip that will improve your game is changing the size and on foot zoom radius of the mini-map. 1) you get more info from the mini-map 2) you can actually see the people you/teammates spot with flare guns 3) for advanced players even use the mini-map to estimate distance to enemy for better positioning yourself to capitalize on the "sweet-spot" mechanic for bolt action rifles.
pro tip: if u bayonet charge without stabbing an enemy u cannot sprint during the cool down as opposed to if you do stab an enemy you can sprint right during the cool down. ALSO super helpful: if you are using a console controller, you can cancel a charge by clicking the left stick down(toward you) and you will stop the charge short. happy killing.
Hey Westie! I was thinking how awesome it would be if Dice re-created Seine crossing from BF3 as a paid or free map fo us BFvets? France plays a big role in BF1 so it makes sense too! I imagine it to look similar with the Amiens map but it's gonna give us some nostalgia too! Can we suggest this to Dice?
Not sure if this qualifies but I find the AT mines are really under used, when defending you can plant all 3 by a flag/cap point and they will destroy any vehicle and it's crew instantly. When the land ship is fully loaded with a 6 man crew it's a huge momentum swing for your team. The best part is that they stay where you plant them even if you're killed. They do a nice job on the armored train also.
This might be an obvious tip, but something I see people not doing, is using the bayonet charge against sentry units(at a sensible distance of course). It might be a noob tip or whatever, but my time in game I rarely see it. The only Sentry unit so far that is nearly impossible to do this against is the SMG one. Like people just try to out gun them face to face, but at the current rate of their damage output you are better off charging instead of shooting. To add also try sneaking behind them and charging them, I'm only giving tips to those who feel hopeless when facing a sentry unit 1 on 1, some instances it's a sacrifice but I feel like it's a good one. I'm also aware of gas nades being useful on some units and shooting the back of the flame unit. Plus I'll admit I feel bad ass when I do successful takedowns against sentry units.
dive bombing with the attack plane is the only way to go, plus you really don't have to aim down the bomb sights to get hits, the bombs will fall pretty much right where you're aiming at the ground
Pro tip. If you are attacking on operation as an ground solider, grab some dynamite and blow up the enemy AA guns that you can reach. It really helps out decent friendly pilots, which can help out alot to move up on objectives. great video btw Westie :)
I noticed on your BL you have an XB1 soldier, at least on BF4. How often do you actually use console? Wondering because I have XB1 and would love to finally be able to play with you.
If playing as cavalry, when you have the sword out, the standard shoot button swings the sword to the right, while the melee button swings it to the left. Confirmed on PS4, not sure about pc.
Westie please feature this in the next episode and it's the slide. Sliding around corners or in front of enemies will change your stance and make you a harder target to hit. The enemy will never expect you to slide beneath them and this works really well with a good hip fire weapon. Numerous times I have out played someone with this trick and I don't see much of it on the Battlefield. Loved the video man :)

Here are my pro tips:
* Heal your team
* Resupply your team
* Help your team
Pyke
Amen.
*revive your team
*spot flare so mortar campers can reign fire from above and actually be usefull
I think you're asking a little too much lol
I have loads of clips where I'm spamming the ammo/medic request just in front of a suppport/medic and get nothing, very funny...^^
Heres a pro tip: Dont skip revive! It rewards both u and ur team.
(It rewards u if you get revived)
Exactly, it helps your team when you need to save tickets on operations
Ozzy what if I want to switch classes or guns?
Ozzy That's if they revive u which most probably they don't.
@Neville
Mostly because:
A. They see that your mashing space bar (your revive icon flickers)
B. There are enemies around (You wouldn't believe the amount of idiots that demand me to suicide rush in to revive when they have 5 enemies at their body)
C. They just have given up revives because everyone skips it
or they're just new to the game, which happens but hopefully these will learn.
Here's a great tip. when playing as medic REVIVE YOUR FUCKING TEAM
I know right? I have to play medic because everyone else is so bad at it on my team usually. I'll be a medic halfway through the game and still get most revives and on the top of the leaderboard.
BFViking Tru but only when the situation is right. Not every death warrants a revive especially when it could kill you and the guy u revive that's a pro tip ☺
A lot of medics don't carry syringes. Just the field crate and that rocket propeller rifle.
''rocket propeller rifle". i also like the headlight fluid gun. lol
Pro tip dont skip the revive menu
give this pepe a big f*cking baloon
K4rs _ correction, press the skip button only if a medic will be falling in to trap.
I rly dont understand why everyone is doing this...
YOU STILL HAVE TO WAIT THE SECONDS IN THE MENU ...
AlexSZ241 But you want if donr need to lead someone to dwath
This is so important people!!!!
Pro tip : Don't use vehicles just to get somewhere faster, they are really important and if used well they can be a good thing for your team
bruno silva depends on what vehicle
bruno silva well he is obviously speaking about everything but the jeeps and armoured trucks.
bruno silva you got that from 10 things only noobs do in battlefield one
even jeep can be very usefull if team works together
wDarkNeSSw not really, weak af and the machine gun on them is ass
tips for medics...if the icon above a dead team member is flashing they are skipping the revive. so don't rush over to revive them they may just be trying to save you from getting killed. revive the guys with a solid icon above their corpse's.
Pro Tips: If you're a Medic and see the Revive Icon flashing, don't rush in. Either the dead guy is an idiot, he's trying to save you from an ambush, or he just wants to change his class.
I skip revive if I know the Medic will die if he tries to save me. So don't think that badly of Revive Skippers, maybe they're just trying to save your skin so you can be useful elsewhere.
Krongfah Mahankalarp well said, I do the same if i know the medic will die.
good point
Krongfah Mahankalarp let three Medic make that judgement
Mackin Cheezy Gaming Can't help it when most Medics are idiots.
Krongfah Mahankalarp true. never thought of it that way. Thanks man!
PRO TIP don't lock your squad when you have one or two persons please !
People have no idea how important this is for their team and how it can also hurt the team. I've sent some of the squad leaders messages to unlock the squad but they say no....like wtf?!
Exactly bro
It's because the game automatically locks the squads of people playing in a party. DICE needs to fix this.
Stig Player This is soooo good to me when playing the enemy though. So many squad wipes! Hate it when its our team though because they are essentially just giving points away.
Here's a pro tip! If you go prone before a cavalryman manages to slash at you with his sword you'll actually dodge it. You can however still die from being trampled by a horse though so watch out.
SuperTiberian I find that the horse normally jumps over the prone enemy?!
CrouxL's Corner Maybe you were by cover or something?
It's cool you can blow the doors up but EA needs to allow players with the wrench to repair them like how you could repair bridges in other battlefield games, tried last night and you can't fix the doors after they are destroyed
well ones with broken locks
Patrick Azzarella yeah I mean ones that are completely blown off. In other battlefield games you could repair bridges that were blown up
Yeah that would be a good addition!!
The Vegan Bear
The Vegan Bear well thats not realistic. the person isn't going to Fix a god damn door in the middle of war.
The bayonet should be an optional attachment that you can switch between in real time rather than a spawn customization.
No that makes you way too versatile.
fuminlikemumin that's a good point
That's how all attachments work in real life but there aren't enough buttons on console to set it up.
I don't mean there aren't enough buttons in general, I mean there isn't enough buttons because this game already uses all of the buttons available. To further my point, try to change your spot button to a useless button on your controller in the game.
thats to button to open doors, use turrets and pretty much used every 5 seconds and i don't feel like accidently putting a bayonet every time i miss the button to open a door.
Pro tip, stop playing Bf, like it's a COD game, K/D doesn't matter.
Help your squad/team: heal, resupply, repair vehicles, spot with the flare gun.
this video was really pointless westie. most of these were very obvious
They might have been obvious for you, but there are plenty of other people in the comments who didn't know these tips. Next episode I'll be featuring a lot of the tips from this comments section, so do you have anything to add? :)
i understand, just providing my thoughts. looking forward to the next video :D
Wasn't pointless to me
here's one keep your head on a sivel at all times
***** yeah basically. i was though
I'm getting bf1 for Christmas I can't wait looks so fun
Impulse enjoy the level 100 colonels. They'll probably cross server snipe you.
AHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAH THAT WAS SO FUNNY
Destructocorps that's probably gonna be me
Destructocorps hahaha ok
Loopty Loop & Pull & Ur Shoes Are Lookin' Cool is there a free Christmas dlc
When you die, DONT FUCKING SKIP AHEAD IF YOU SEE A MEDIC COMING RIGHT AT YOU. I've died probably 1000 times because of 11 year olds with add who can't wait an extra 10 seconds for me to revive them
... and I'm still waiting to get a revive ... :-) ...
I often skip if I'm getting shot from multiple directions, just to give an explanation why somebody wanna die.
Could be you died cause there are enemies - don't try to rambo-revive.
I think the symbol flashes if you push the skip-button - seen it several times. Just be aware of it.
I do a lot of rambo revives, diving in with the syringe only for us both to die a second later haha
bjkerp haha, me too - just to get an extra time-frame to get out of misery - don't tell anybody ;-)
anyone else have a glitch when spotting enemies on ps4? sometimes it works, other times it does absolutely nothing.
chris d I can't even play the game so I don't know
yeah it feels a little but unresponsive
If the server is lagging spoting will not work.
If you've hit the spot button too many times it goes into a cool down mode, that is why it doesn't work every time. It keeps people from spamming the spot button and it working like it did in bf4.
that glitch has been since years, i still remember getting it in bf3.. I bet you might have and amount of button touches per time, otherwise you will press the spot button like crazy around the map
Westie: so the game has been out for a few weeks
Me: Laughs in 2019
Great tips, perfect for a newbie like me ^^
BattlefrontUpdates heyyyyy battlefront updates!! big fan ;)
BattlefrontUpdates hey Elliot
BattlefrontUpdates hey m8
BattlefrontUpdates love your channel👍
you block me on twitter for wut reason
westie just made this video so that he can get his ass in the main memu
+Jeff B-c No he didn't... He's already in the main menu, and will be there for some time. EA asked me to make those videos specifically for that, this video they did not.
***** OK bb
lol so true
I thought pro tips were suppose to come from pros Kappa :>
+Nikos GR117 you didnt read the kappa did you
Knew all of them, go like insanely advanced if thats possible. More specific map based tips
+sean rogers Sure thing!
Ok thanks mate
i was thinking the exact same thing
Pro Tip: Have a working controller if on console. Pro Tip 2: Have good Internet
hey westie can you maybe do a short vid about the best magification for various wep. for example i was having no luck with the mondragon storm at 2x mag but when i switched to 1.25 its heeps better. also can you weigh in to directional recoil?
Protip: Play your class correctly. As Assault it is your job to take out vehicles, as a Medic it is your job to revive and heal teammates and as Support GIVE AMMO FOR F*CK SAKE!!!
TheKims yup
Knew like everyone besides the first one, but doesn't think it's a PRO TIP.....
+Karl Ulriksson Next week I'll be collecting stuff from this comments section to go into the video, so do you have anything cool? :)
Westie friendly gas grenades affect you negative too so put the gas mask on as soon as possible egen your vision turns green
gas also prevents healing and as a sniper it will cause supression
lol I was trying to say that
Maybe give a thorough explanation of how the artillery strikes work in Rush, DICE did a God awful job of explaining that.
rg03500 few things in Battlefield are as frustrating as seeing "Coordinates Sent to Artillery" twice in five seconds
Pro tip: don't use the factory or low-weight variants of a weapon.
(Unless it's the hellriegel)
Pro Tip : Enable auto aim when using a controller on pc.
Adrian C Where is this option?
Alessio Fantini I'm a console player and I have never played PC, so I thought this would be fair tbh.
Mega Pro Tip: Use the bloody stationary weapons! Especially the field guns, they are very useful!
David Johnsen very useful for an enemy sniper
I keep the bayonet equipped for the sole reason that it's easier to kill sentries with it
*picks up a flamethrower* oooh people are gonna fry XD
*hears yelling*
*looks around and gets stabbed by charge*
-______-
I get salty af
I feel bad every time I do that to somebody who just grabbed an elite class a second ago.
i get salty af i wanna go tho their and just break his whole gaming on his head
I don't see why people skip revives all it does it make you wait in the loading screen for like years and by the time that happens your team could have revived you
Pro Tip: Don't try take groups on unless you know your gonna succeed, a good way to take a group out is run back and pick one off as the idiotic players chase you thinking it's TDM lol
Pro Tip: STOP GOING FOR KILLS AND CAP THE OBJECTIVES in conquest, 9 times out of 10 players will think the kills will help them level up fast, actually no you get more points for capping and playing the objective so I'd suggest going for kills when they come for your flags or your tryna cap them
Pro Tip 3: Scouts get good and stop camping on rooftops and hilltops it's annoying how teams loose because most of players are camping and not helping their team so they loose them they wonder why they lost
Pro Tip 4: Use Gas or Grenades to breach into flooded rooms, if you want a room where there is like 4 or 5 guys rather than knifing them take them all out with a Nade or flush them with your Gas/Flash Bangs it really does help
Pro Tip: Stop Knifing when you have 5 enemies plus in front of you, You wanna stay alive? Use your Guns that's what they are there for
Pro Tip 5: Bayonet charging will allow you to escape but then your stood there thinking I can't run, but it's a good idea to do if there is cover you can get too
Pro Tip 4.20: blaze it
Pro Tip 69: you know what to do ;)
Pro Tip 666: T-bag after you give them your Shovel or whatever in there assholes to show them you are indeed a c**t
Pro Tip 360: Shit Bucket
No Sex, remember battlefield is your pussy, Fuck SHIT UP!!!!!!!
I have another Pro Tip: When someone is camping in a house or on a roof you can thow a limpet charge inside, or shoot at a AT Mine to blow up the WHOLE building (and it doesn't even matter if you place it on the 1st or 2nd floor). ;)
Don't forget even your normal guns do damage to planes, given that they're close enough and you actually hit them.
You can easily do 15-20 damage to a plane flying over you if you have a normal 30 round gun.
And to the snipers, use your K bullets on armored vehicles or planes. Lots of damage and easy kills/points if other snipers are doing it too!
Pro Tip: Medics can actually revive!
Most players don't know this because they are dumb-asses or something.
So, Revive Me Bro!!
Tip: Use the spot button at one of your own medics if you need health. If your need ammo, you can also it on support players. A flashing, blacks bubble will appear over your head. Also, medics and support players - be aware of that!
If you are support, support your team with ammo! Dozens of times I had press I need ammo like 20 times before the player got it and gave me some ammo. And sometimes even that doesnt work , you literally have to jump around them and smack them so they finally realize
Slide when cornering, it makes you a smaller and faster target, but you can still shoot.
put the gas mask on before throwing the gas if you are going to rush towards the gas, you will save some time and you will may catch the enemy putting their gas mask or retreating.
limpy charge can be used to do some damage on enemies that are chasing you and can be used to take down buildings.
in amiens, you can destroy some higher buildings rooftops with mortars, allowing you to kill shooters in-door behind your cover.
Pro tip of Xbox one Ik this because that my system if your a medic you can press RB and it will throw a medical pack to who ever is in need of Heath which is really helpful in getting those player across a hallway or street you can simply throw a medical pack across the map the help your team ! Try it
Pro tip: when sniping do not look directly at your enemy especially other snipers when aiming down your scope. This will help reduce your scope glare from them spotting you and give you the edge to get the drop on them till they are looking the other way or give you time to line up the shot for those long range bullet drops. I did this on previous bf games and always worked and as of now seems to be working on this one too. I probably screwed myself giving this out but helps those who love sniping haha
The revive icon will blink if the player that is down is holding down the spacebar. Prevents medics from risking their lives for a revive if they see a downed player skipping a revive.
Pro tip when using sub machine guns and machine guns the recoil setting is actually very useful, for instance if you are sprinting and a player is of in the distance set the recoil to left so you don't have to aim for them the recoil will give you more shots,another one is get used to or find a good scope setting for snipers it will help you and it will also let you unlock the class rank 10 weapons a lot faster
Spot the damn enemies!!! I don't know if it is the case on PC, but I feel that players are not spotting the enemies enough on console.
what the hell do u mean by tickets for the next sector
Tickets = lives. The more tickets you have, the more lives your team has :)
Ohhhhh thnx
Pro tip: the Support's primary weapon is the Mortar. LMGs are only to be used if you don't have a mortar
Westie, how can you be giving "pro" tips if your not Stodeh m8...😄
+ThatOneGuy Sorry m8 ;)
Westie another pro tip,do ur job us a medic and dont left behind ur team mates.....
The battlefield gamer Koren675
holy shit yes.
I hear people complaining that people when they die just immediately hold the button and go back to the respawn menu. but this is because Medix literally walk right over top of your body and do not bother to revive you.
Justin Whitsitt ikr i hate those people
LooooL that wasn't even funny, Stodeh sucks DarK-Betrayed or even XFactor can crush that guy in pieces
Some of the bunkers have shells that a well placed grenade can cause a huge explosion decimating the enemy.
Pro tip: another solution to tip#1 on pc would be to change the key binding for one of them
The Bayonet has no draw backs to it, don't be like those kind of people.
Is everybody hype for Battlefield 1 dlc Wester Combat
we want bolt action rifles like gewehr m.95 servers
Hey westie, learnt a couple of things from that video thanks, it would be great to see you do a war stories video once a week, I subscribed to THE GREAT WAR channel over a year ago and it's fantastic but lacking the individual touch, it would be cool if you could tell us more about the actual men and women who fought. I know that that is quite a time consuming ask but it will add a lot more depth to a great game especially if it's a short series and each video concentrates on stories from each map in BF1. All the best mate, and I'll catch you. . . . In the next video.
+Dale Matthews This is a great idea Dale, thank you for the suggestion :)
Also, thanks for watching 😀👍
I know when you revive teammates on TDM it saves tickets, but does it on Operations or Conquest?
CalmLikeAhBomb yes
You paused mid sentence 5 times in the first minute, it's hilarious
+Nike013 I called commentating. If I spoke like I spoke to my friends, you'd think it not professional.
Lol do you, I'm just saying it's funny
Westie I much preferred your live commentary, your personality comes through more.
Also if the enemy hops out a tank if you hop in with the repair tool for support you can internal repair,just if you didnt know im posting this
Patrick Azzarella Do you need to have the tool in hand?
CrouxL's Corner No just as a gadget

sometimes getting out of a vehicle and repairing it using the wrench is faster, than sitting inside it pressing x
Leo Onhisphone it is but there are risk that your teamate steals your tank or enemy shoots you.
man u deserve 10m subs , like if u agree ;)
+TotesEnder HD I liked.
Clorox Bleach are you diamond or plat
Thanks for the Pro Tips, Westie!
3:00 watch him take the flag without marking it as a squad leader
A really, REALLY useful mechanic for reviving teammates while being fired upon is to pull out a sliding revive.
The sliding mechanic is being featured in many videos for cool takedowns, such as sliding collateral kills (XfactorGaming), or sliding hipfire kills (JackFrags), but none have ever mentioned a sliding revive before.
Which is really helpful, not only for throwing people off their lead while attempting a revive while fired upon, but also to keep you alive and on the move while actually pulling out the revives.
Good video westie. Keep up the good work
The bayonet does NOT affect recoil but it does affect the time it takes to bring your weapon up out of a sprint. I know what it says but this is DICE so...
Pro tip 8 :git gud
I need some people to play with on ps4, also I only want people with headsets my psn is ELITOSBURRITOS all caps
westie medic HE grenades break the doors aswell
+Waylen Mcneill Didn't know that! Good find 😀
Your tips always help me, especially in bf4 when I started sniping
I have a pro tip for all you battlefield players out there... When you're a medic... FUCKING REVIVE ME, when your a sniper... FUCKING SPOT THE ENEMY, when you're assault... DON'T JUST IGNORE THE FUCKING TANK and finally... if you're support(I know not many of you are)... BUT THROW FUCKING AMMUNITION, and now even more lastly.... if you're a squad, just do us all a favour and MARK THE FUCKING OBJECTIVES
The bayonet DOES NOT negatively effect recoil. It only effects recoil if you set it to left or right. In that case it offsets the recoil but does not make it and more accurate. It is just a preference thing.
SprintRecoverTimeMultiplier 0.266 and enabling the charge. You aren't the only one. Many youtubers have accidentally helped spread this misinformation.
My tip is never play 64 player operations.
In the deep 13 Its fun!
Here's a pro tip which you already said. SPOT PLAYERS! I don't know how many times I've died to players on Argonne Forest because I didn't know where they were. Another tip, don't use a bayonet on Assault weapons. Sure it's good to have another way to attack, but you'll have nearly no chance at medium to long range.
A pro tip is to change the settings of the minimap. So it gets a bit bigger and zoomed out, so you actually can use it. Options then gameplay settings, scroll down to HUD. My settings, on foot zoom 160, vehicle zoom 200 and flight zoom 400. Ur welcome. ;)
Is it true you can snipe people out of tanks with K bullets if you hit the right spot? I've read that it's possible and have been trying it out with no success. I did get a critical hitmarker color(head shot hitmarker) while shooting the heavy tank with the k bullets, and it did a lot more damage than usual but didn't get me a kill.
Another tip for crossing water. When crossing water you might swim if the water is deep enough, like on Fao Fortress there are many streams and you usually sail through them which delays shooting if you see an enemy. Instead when crossing look up while running and you will just run across.
Pro Tip: Follow yer fuckin' squad orders! Also, give fuckin' squad orders if you're the leader! You and your squad mates all get points.
Nice tips Westie even though I knew most of them lol. I have a tip. Did you know when sprinting you can jump and slide just as you land? Probably a stupid tip but I found it interesting. Could make for some cool techniques. Plus if you know you're definitely going to get melee killed, throw your grenade and by the time the enemy has killed you, he will die from your grenade. XD
Another pro tip, if you have a squad member with bonus xp going, blow the horse up or however you want to turn it into glue. Lol. Nice little bonus, it's a little mean but it's a digital horse, I am a pet lover so calm down, just saying you get some extra points is all( dynamite and limpet charge" cough cough, so fun " cough cough) lol
Pro Tip:
The Shield on the backside of the Ligthtank has an modfier so you take less dmg than you get hit, so always drive backwards.
Makes the Ligthtank even stonger;)
Guys... I think i found something in the bf1 campain. In the mission through mud and blood (Breakdown) i saw 4 lights in the sky (not stars)! I just recorded it, but what do i do with the clip? It could be a bug but i dont thinks so.
Why do I feel oddly pleasured when I hear the BF1 theme?!SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME!
noob tips not pro.. can u play with a 100% sensitivity? ?? kus I'm part of a 2GuD clan on battlefield veteran gamers in America.
you can also repair a blown door with a wrench.
You should have said the grenade tip. if a grenade is coming at you and you have no where to go , go prone because you will survive with about 5-10 percent health.
Thanks for the information & great video's ! Helpful squad leader info cuz I'm always spotting and it keeps changing my attack points thanks .
Hi Westie, not sure if it's common knowledge or not.. But a tip that I find myself doing a lot, is that it can be a useful tactic to get on a vacant horse, throw down some ammo and health ... Jump back off and refill flares .. It's extremely handy in operation mode :)
These are not pro tips; I have seen a guy doing evasive movements by crouching and standing quickly in an very close combat. I don't know the efectiveness of that, but the guy seemed to dodge all bullets. Btw, a plane can be disabled by a single shot of a rifle; planes also have weak spots. Also forgot to mntion that minimap magnification is a must.
One pro tip that will improve your game is changing the size and on foot zoom radius of the mini-map. 1) you get more info from the mini-map 2) you can actually see the people you/teammates spot with flare guns 3) for advanced players even use the mini-map to estimate distance to enemy for better positioning yourself to capitalize on the "sweet-spot" mechanic for bolt action rifles.
pro tip: if u bayonet charge without stabbing an enemy u cannot sprint during the cool down as opposed to if you do stab an enemy you can sprint right during the cool down. ALSO super helpful: if you are using a console controller, you can cancel a charge by clicking the left stick down(toward you) and you will stop the charge short. happy killing.
Hey Westie! I was thinking how awesome it would be if Dice re-created Seine crossing from BF3 as a paid or free map fo us BFvets? France plays a big role in BF1 so it makes sense too! I imagine it to look similar with the Amiens map but it's gonna give us some nostalgia too! Can we suggest this to Dice?
Not sure if this qualifies but I find the AT mines are really under used, when defending you can plant all 3 by a flag/cap point and they will destroy any vehicle and it's crew instantly. When the land ship is fully loaded with a 6 man crew it's a huge momentum swing for your team. The best part is that they stay where you plant them even if you're killed. They do a nice job on the armored train also.
This might be an obvious tip, but something I see people not doing, is using the bayonet charge against sentry units(at a sensible distance of course). It might be a noob tip or whatever, but my time in game I rarely see it. The only Sentry unit so far that is nearly impossible to do this against is the SMG one. Like people just try to out gun them face to face, but at the current rate of their damage output you are better off charging instead of shooting.
To add also try sneaking behind them and charging them, I'm only giving tips to those who feel hopeless when facing a sentry unit 1 on 1, some instances it's a sacrifice but I feel like it's a good one. I'm also aware of gas nades being useful on some units and shooting the back of the flame unit. Plus I'll admit I feel bad ass when I do successful takedowns against sentry units.
Join the “Battlefield 1 platoons 2.0 “ community on Ps4 there really awsome plagers there Also trainings help and glitches
dive bombing with the attack plane is the only way to go, plus you really don't have to aim down the bomb sights to get hits, the bombs will fall pretty much right where you're aiming at the ground
Pro tip. If you are attacking on operation as an ground solider, grab some dynamite and blow up the enemy AA guns that you can reach. It really helps out decent friendly pilots, which can help out alot to move up on objectives. great video btw Westie :)
I noticed on your BL you have an XB1 soldier, at least on BF4. How often do you actually use console? Wondering because I have XB1 and would love to finally be able to play with you.
If playing as cavalry, when you have the sword out, the standard shoot button swings the sword to the right, while the melee button swings it to the left. Confirmed on PS4, not sure about pc.
Westie please feature this in the next episode and it's the slide. Sliding around corners or in front of enemies will change your stance and make you a harder target to hit. The enemy will never expect you to slide beneath them and this works really well with a good hip fire weapon. Numerous times I have out played someone with this trick and I don't see much of it on the Battlefield. Loved the video man :)
Tip: Picking up an Elite class kit will replenish your health fully. Equip it as a strategy for survival and holding the objectives near to the kits.
