As someone who really only plays Operations (used to only play Rush in BC2 and BF3) its a real shame that I wont really get to play any of the new maps. These are some of the most infamous WWI locations and the modes on them aren't really WWI orientated. At least throw Frontlines on the maps.
The whole point of conquest assault is to force one team to attack a front as a cohesive team and the other to defend it. As gamemodes go, conquest assault is supposed to be ww1 oriented, it's just terribly balanced and kinda pointless with frontlines and operations doing what conquest assault is supposed to do, but actually doing it well.
Even on Cape Helles and Heligoland Bight, which in my opinion are the better working conquest assault maps, the gamemode still sucks. It's conquest but easier to steamroll and about half as long. I play battlefield 1 for the epic long battles and the struggle of two teams on even footing, not for a 15 minute crapfest of spawn camping and facerolling.
I find the games when everyone does “ring around the Rosie” the best matches. You have a big group attacking together and defending together making for exciting firefights so I don’t see the problem with that.
Jacob Bangs because that's how we get zerging. You can just sit in the spawn screen of BF1 and watch a giant squad of your own team go flag to flag and an enemy squad will do the same thing. So it's like both teams running circles all game just trying to cap flags. This makes it hard to hold on to objectives because if you stay behind to defend a point you'll just get overrun since the entire enemy team will be there to take your flag. Zerging really kills the strategy involved in the game and makes defending objectives you already have pointless. There needs to be a balance between PTFOing and being a slayer.
Odds - yeah, I agree with you... but Fort Vaux was like that until people got used to it too. After a week or so, it played out much more "as designed" (and still does unless you get spawn trapped). Let's hope this one does too.
The problem has actually become a curse for BF1 this never happened in BF4. The way how the maps are made are, well rounded maps and people has really emphasize PTFO in BF1 that when half the team runs to one a objective people are like "Fuck it Im going with my team too". People cant see the bigger picture anymore in the long term to help out their team. PTFO doesnt also just mean run flag to flag, other objectives include running opposite of your team to contest enemy team slow them down, running ahead of your team help push for the next objective and etc.
*When all DLCs were announced* Me: “wow I’m so hyped especially for Turning tides cause I’m Australian” *when the French dlc came out* Me: “wow this dlc is cool, but I can’t find any servers running these maps” *2 months afters later* Me: “there’s no severs running the French dlc” *when the Russian dlc came out* Me: “ok, I have the maps but I think earning the weapons will be quite difficult” *1 month* Me: “finally shot down a fucking plane with a lmg because it kept getting stolen!!” *when the Turning tides map comes” Me: “where’s the ANZACs!?!, you were able to add the fucking Russian women battalion who didn’t play a major role in WW1 but not a major Army? *when apocalypse comes out* Me: “oh my fucking god, 3 maps mostly based on infantry and 2 based on aerial combat but I bet nobody is gonna play that after day 1, with shitty assignments for the new perks which downgrades teamwork and encourages scouts to snipe far back, not helping teams to spot, no new vehicles for this dlc and WHY in God’s name do I keep on lagging or having a constant frame drop!!?!”
I went through resetting my router and a long call to my provider thinking my internet was messed up, the stuttering is unreal for me on PS4, quite disappointed
DarkshadowXD63 people accuse lag switching when there's any amount of lag...they always think it's someone else and not just think it's simply just lag lol.
While the fact is interesting if true, you should choose your words better next time. Nothing fun about soldiers dying. Id slap the shit out of you if you said that near me IRL
It’s to force you to do the other five unless you somehow manage to do it. Also it’s a meme, Dice decided to be the ultimate shitlords with the assignments.
yeah but the map design should make it so everyone captures the objectives AND fights each other at the same time which is what the intention of conquest is
His point is very valid. People forget that defending is also part of playing the objective, but since capping flags garners more points, you get swarms of people running around doing just that.
How fitting it drops untested with these issues, stinks of a lazy 'just bare bones it we have the premium pass money already' attitude. So disappointing overall from something that has been billed for a year and a half as something that would be epic!! '_' No new vehicles, no new sentry kits, no new Operation despite the most fitting maps to have it on in terms of history and community requests, new weapons are recycled assets mostly, no new armies or skins, fewest maps to drop in a DLC (dont get it twisted, there are 3 new maps), fewest weapons to drop in a DLC, AND on top of all this. The lag and hitmarker stuttering has made the whole thing really unplayable and underwhelming imo. It speaks volumes from the companies involved. #ItsNotInTheGame To be clear I love BF1 and have over 600 hours logged. But this is a kick in the sack!
Not to mention that the muddy map that Levelcap said wasn't good on conquest cause people play the objective too much is just copy paste of campaign maps frm through mud and blood's first part and opening part when you play the game for the first time. Never going to buy premium pass for BF game again. I might not even buy next bf cause of how badly this game got handled and how shitty BF4 was for a year.
Agreed. Bothers me how rushed this was. The last DLC barely has been out for a month and we get this sloppy final DLC. I really was hyped for the French and Russian DLCs. Turning Tides was ok but like LevelCap says this one was super underwhelming.
iHaveDownSyndrome idk Same here except I always intended on coming back for Apocalypse when they first announced it simply for some real trench maps guess I'll be a bit disappointed.
Right so let me get this straight... You complain about people not playing thhe objective, so dice changed how conquest works so that it encourages objective play, now you complain about people actually playing the objective? i mean I like you level cap and i have watched you sinc the bf4 days but come on... sstop being so picky and whiney about everything. Ahh the lighting on this map is too beutiful it distracts me and I cant see the enemy who is using it to their advantage like I can at anytime i want, but if they didnt add the lighting you would complain about the maps being ugly. Also are you really complaining so much about dropping 2 fps from definetly over 60 every time you get a kill? like it was only noticable to me when you slowed it down tolike 5 frames a second. Why must you compplain about such tiny things. This is what gets half the content deleted from the game. Oh i was killed 2 times that game by the same guy? means the guns op, nerf it dice! What do you find annoying about afflictions? That one person on your team will have slightly less health than you? ahh that makes it tottaly unfair and ruins the game for others doesnt it!? Its the players choice to do it and they might want the extra challenge to the game doesnt mean you have to use it just let it be. Half the maps on r6 got taken out because of this same ype of whyning, theres nothing wrong with the game or map its you being picky and needing it to be like you want it because you said so.
Problem is this: just because LCG is decent at hitscan aiming does not mean he has a fucking clue about anything else. You see a young man with a massive sense of entitlement, making hilariously false statements, because he doesn't like how he got killed. A relative newcomer to games, a novice at the BF franchise, and he thinks his opinion matters. It doesn't but he has his platform here to cry and mouthbreathe and it gets him attention so why NOT do it?
“Perfect battlefield map”. -Mostly infantry cqb limited vehicles and they don’t exert much influence - how the hell did levelcap become a prominent member of the BATTLEFIELD community. He even complains about aircraft disrupting infantry
There's still stuff to cover. World War 1 was kind of a HUGE thing. It was fought all around the world, not just in Europe and the Middle East, and there were a surprising number of fronts and so many inventive and revolutionary weapons. The Canadians aren't even in the game! The only reason I'd want DICE to stop making maps for BF1 is because the game takes up a fifth of my hard drive and couting.
They limited themselves from the start, they didn't even have the Eastern Front or France at release! I agree with +Bulley, they could have had so much more and it didn't help that the progression system was dull as well.
nunnybunny You're right, there's not much to cover in a World War. Just because you don't know very much about the First World War doesn't mean there isn't very much to it, lol. As Bulley said, Dice limited themselves right from the start. They obviously wanted to make a Second World War game (with modern warfare action) but were stuck with the First World War theme.
The heavy hitting sniper load out Primary: martini Henry Secondary: obrez Gadget one: tripwire bomb he Gadget two: flare gun Melee: and heavy melee You were a weightlifter that wanted to help fight for his country, use the powerful martini Henry to force your way into the objectives, and if some strangle through, finish them off with the obrez. If an enemy gets to close to you, use your biceps and triceps to swing your heavy melee weapon. Love your gameplay levelcap, keep up the good work
I’ve been having issues since the last update. I bought the game and it ran fine but the moment they put outhe last update my FPS just crashed. It’s like a slide show sometimes.
Me and my friends played some bf1 today and every single time we got a hitmarker the game lagged evn though all of us have a great internet connection. Dice, fix your game
Well my friends told me to join them and told me that there's a lot of lag. I thought it just happened to them but once i joined the game 3 minutes after i went on a flank with my friends and threw some explosives behind them. Guess what, once we detonated them the entire server crashed so did everyones' game. We rejoined and the server was empty. GGs
Usually every DLC update breaks something on my end, but for once I've been blessed with no issues. My previous stutter problems seem to have disappeared. Which is weird, but a pleasant surprise.
DaMainDude which is sad because it looks to me that the skill based games are gaining more popularity, so why stay casual?? Who knows maybe they’ll change thing up in the next game. We’ll just have to find out
Yeah, I was kinda hoping that the Somme would have been an Operations or at least have it tied in with Devil's Anvil; since they practically happened at the same time.
They’ve changed the smg 08/18 with this update as well. They upped the power and fire rate. They also upped the vertical and horizontal recoil and made it overheat quicker to compensate.
I really glad that the microstudder is something in game, I thought it was my hardware messing up but I do have confidence that dice will fix it in time for the non premium release cause my lag was not only from killing players but doing damage to them too.
This is easily the laziest dlc in any Bf game... Reskin weapons 3 maps which I swear have some reused assets 2 complete copies of campaign maps Glitches Conquest assault Being honest the DLCs just got worse the more That released TSNP 9/10 TSAR 8/10 TUTI 6/10 APOC 3/10
The Brownie On A Plate Gaming tbh Kazershlacht (I’m sure that’s wrong) is paschendale in the day....their whole “it’s apocalyptic” thing has already kinda been done, they definitely needed more content, especially on their final DLC.
While I respectfully disagree with your scores for the other dlc I agree that Apocalypse is pretty lackluster. It would have been better if they released before TSNP. Doing so would have partially addressed the poor release schedule, the assets are already there so it would have been easy to do, the expectations would have been relatively low for the first dlc, and adding the AA gun and Air Assault earlier would have been good for the meta.
Totally agree with you bout aircraft over dominating. I'd like to see some team balancing, something like if there is a points disparity vehicles can't spawn. That'd make a huge turn in points! Also, thank god you mentioned the stuttering, I've been suffering from this for some time, to the point some days I just don't play.
As someone who plays this game regularly, I hate how dice just don't give a shit about it anymore. It's literally the most successful game in the entire franchise and now they're just tossing it away as if it's a used condom. There's still so much potential for content but if they keep neglecting their game like this just to make way for bf 2018, then bf 2018 won't sell very well
I am on a ps4 and its unplayable for me. Any damage I take or any damage I do the game stutters. Revives also make it stutter. I untracked everything with no change.
Yeah, I tried to play and it was just hit markers that affected the game but itwas frustrating so I turned off, then a few hours later I thought Id try again and it was much worse!
Same here I feel your pain ! I stopped playing it's that bad and what makes it worse my girlfriend has a playstation and TV next to mine and hers us working fine now stuttering at
Played River Somme for the first time, I was on the attacking team and we won. I was so surprised, it’s such a good map if you don’t get spawned trapped at the start.
I really do hope that they add more content to Apocalypse. I was really excited for the DLC when i saw it, being able to fight in Somme and what I thought Verdun and Tannenberg. I was really excited to have new vehicles and more weapons. It's really. Disheartening to see that all we get is 3 maps and some new guns which as cool as they are don't really pack as much of a punch. Regardless, i'm still happy we get more content. I just really hope that they add more stuff because to me this was the most hyped up DLC because of how epic it sounded.
Your problem is uncommon and they dont make the game for people who overclock or turboboost. The target acquisition is fine considering the contrast between player and sky in that map is distinguished. I havnt even noticed anyone giving my position away with any afflictions. (I believe the afflictions is like a passive middle finger to the masses that will complain about anything after dieing. Like it makes you worse there is nothing to complain about.) did you notice how they also fixed the specializations? Didn't hear you mention that. And the theme is dark yes i like it.
Phillip Hughes it‘s not uncommon. Just because you don‘t experience it doesn‘t mean others don‘t. Since the last patch, a bunch of people have been experiencing lag and stutter without overclocked cpus.
Wow, "I don't have an issue so I'm gonna push down anyone who has". "You have an issue on PS4? Why don't you buy a 2000 dollar cpu and buy the game again on PC?" You are the worst kind, sorry to say. Please heal. Game is completely unplayable for me and apparently for many others. Maybe you play on bot mode and then I understand you would not care.
Carl Bergfeldt I bet thats frustrating. Ive seen it yeah. They made a few big mistakes at the end there thats for sure but that should be expected with big change. I just like the fact that they are trying to fix the game and make it into what it was supposed to be.
Phillip Hughes at least 3 people on every server that actually respond including myself get extreme lag and frame drops. Used to get 80 fps on high and now i get 40 on medium
Changing the direct X version from 12 to 11 got rid of the micro-stutter for me. Worth a try for anyone experiencing this problem. Hopefully it works. All the best LevelCap!
Played it last night. The air battles suck. You attack or defend airships but the problem is fighters are too weak to take down airships well but dominate all other planes. So if your in a bomber or attack plane trying to take down a airship your dominated in the ass and nothing you can do about it.
In my opinion DICE Stockholm makes very polished games. BF4 being the exception here. BF1 is a solid game. The only issues I have are with the current conquest ticket system and the ridiculously quick respawn rate.
Alan Rickman Bioware, Dice, Respawn, and visceral are all studios that work for EA. EA has implemented business policies that have ruined the games made by these studios. I thought this was pretty fucking obvious but i guess not for people like u
Yep. Imo a let down. But then I find conquest assault in BF1 to be an annoyance. I’m just hoping BF2K18 is better. Whether it’s modern day, WWII, Vietnam, or whatever. It needs to be a lot more like previous games (once they were improved).
Charles Hård Yes I have I've only played on the attacking side yet. A good tip two quickly get behind the enemy at the beggining of the match is to get on the motor bike and flank around the side. And I'm not a big fan of CQA but I do like the map so...
Kaiserschlacht (I’m sure that’s spelled wrong) is basically paschendale in day time....like they have a church, trenches and bunkers. Having two air maps is hardly 2 maps since you don’t exactly use different cover you just fly around in the open air (flying close to the mountain doesn’t count). And Caporetto was kinda of a cool addition in all honesty...nothing too bad about it. But for their final DLC, you gotta finish stronger than that.
Frontlines gives the true experience, Operations does as well, but I enjoy the fact that the fronts can move back and forth. It really should be implemented into the new maps, and the amount of players in a frontlines server should be increased at least up to 20 or 25 per team
I fixed my BF1 stutter with this fix, it has worked for many people. If you are on windows10 Creators+ update then the memory is going to make you stutter when the free memory is exhausted. www.reddit.com/r/Windows10/comments/7a0763/standby_memory_issue_causing_stutters_on_creators/
I’ve seen the pro-players on RUclips showing us their stutter from playing their top-end PCs, and let me tell you - their stutter is NOTHING compared to the stutter my game has on PS4. It so bad that whenever I make a kill in the aircraft, it lags so much that I end up crashing lots. The lag is so bad. And the lag isn’t only from kills. It’s huge lag with each and every landed bullet using any weapon, and even while acquiring points for conquering zones, etc. I hope the fix comes real soon!
A similar theory was with JC3, with terrible frame rates when you blew a bunch of stuff up. One theory was that the game was uploading every destruction to leaderboards, which slowed down the game. Idk if this is 100% true, but if anytime you’re gaining score/kills its uploading the data to a bunch of stuff like the assingments, it could well be a cause.
River somme and pashendalle are almost identical this was such a piss poor dlc i noticed sites like ign and gamespot didn't cover this i now know why. I wouldn't have even known this already came out. It just screams laziness even the new weapon unlocks are lazy get 50 assault kills get 50 scout kills thats it lol. Very shitty ending to a great game
The vehicles is a reason for me playing tdm for most of my time on the game in it I don't have to worry about getting bombed by planes or getting blown up by tanks that kill you before you can do reliable damage to them
Stuttering as infantry when trying to kill enemies, I thought my internet was starting me, instead it's Dice starting me and every other BF1 player. Thanks Dice.
I completely quit after the 2nd dlc, sad part is I bought the "season pass", played the first dlc a little bit(wasn´t too bad), left, came back when the Russian dlc came out and left again after I had played it once (didn´t like it at all), it was not my type of dlc and I just don´t like this game anymore... Every map looks the same i.m.o.
Yes thank you Level I so hate that BF1 conquest curse both team bunching up and running to objective after objective team have no intention to contest flag or help with other objectives.
It's a total mess for me.. every hitmarker it studders like crazy. Probably a full second of massive lag each kill and .25 each hit. It's not a small issue
In BF4, Aerial Superiority didn't last too long as well, so i don't think it's a big surprise that the BF1 version, Air Assault, doesn't work. Also, that scream on 2:55 lol
I thought the game felt a little odd when I was playing the new maps last night, until I saw this video I didn't realise it too much. Hopefully this gets fixed soon, love the new content.
Didn't anyone notice that the new Anti Air AT Rocket Gun that made it into the game on the Assault? My Brother and me yesterday dominated pretty much any Pilot since you only need 3 Shots to take out any Plane. It was VERY easy to take them out since the DMG and the Radius is relly good and easy to hit.
I'll be honest, I have never seen that "conquest effect" you mentioned, where teams seem to deliberately avoid eachother for the sake of getting points from flags. While Passchendaele can turn into a really ugly spawn camping against the Germans (at least until they learn to use the Livens Launcher at their main base to break into their gimmi point), I've not seen the teams just avoid eachother. I played the map about a dozen times today across just as many different teams, never happened.
I kind of wish DICE added new player models for each side to make soldiers more "apocalyptic" and war-torn to add to this DLC's theme. I have no clue how hard it is to create new player models but it would have been a nice touch
Every time I notice I get "stutter" its usually because the server has 4 or 5 people with 150 or even 200+ ping. Aside from operations I don't see any of the game mode related issues that LC talks about.
Thought I was having an internet problem as this happens at once a game for about 10 seconds--generally four to five stutters. Glad to know it wasn't just me.
My first game on Somme was a shooting gallery the Brits got trapped in their spawn and the landship kept getting blown up I felt bad for them but I got A LOT of marksman headshots so… not that bad. The second time I drove the landship to C and was yelling in the chat GET OUT! That brought back memories of BF3 Kharg Island rush so it felt good.
To be honest the apocalypse maps are some of my personal favorites in the entire game so far but I was really hoping they would step it up with a map completely engulfed in gas like a thick, killer fog that forced all players to use their gas masks throughout the game, I thought that would be really interesting and intense because no one would be able to view down their sights. But that’s just my opinion, I still love the chaos and realism of the torn up trench-full maps I would expect from a WW1 game. This is one of the few FPS games that just keeps on giving it seems. 😊🖖🏻
As someone who really only plays Operations (used to only play Rush in BC2 and BF3) its a real shame that I wont really get to play any of the new maps.
These are some of the most infamous WWI locations and the modes on them aren't really WWI orientated. At least throw Frontlines on the maps.
Joe Wuh-Puh I was hoping for another operations. But no, let's do flying only and lucky enough to down 5 planes before the game ends.
The whole point of conquest assault is to force one team to attack a front as a cohesive team and the other to defend it. As gamemodes go, conquest assault is supposed to be ww1 oriented, it's just terribly balanced and kinda pointless with frontlines and operations doing what conquest assault is supposed to do, but actually doing it well.
Joao Gomes Yeah, depending on team I've been stuck in a spawn all game. No one could even touch a flag.
Even on Cape Helles and Heligoland Bight, which in my opinion are the better working conquest assault maps, the gamemode still sucks. It's conquest but easier to steamroll and about half as long. I play battlefield 1 for the epic long battles and the struggle of two teams on even footing, not for a 15 minute crapfest of spawn camping and facerolling.
Dude I hate conquest. I absolutely love Operations. Sucks that I'll have to experience these pretty maps in this shitty mode
I find the games when everyone does “ring around the Rosie” the best matches. You have a big group attacking together and defending together making for exciting firefights so I don’t see the problem with that.
One of your complaints is about people playing the objective TOO MUCH... What a time to be alive.
Lol
Jacob Bangs because that's how we get zerging. You can just sit in the spawn screen of BF1 and watch a giant squad of your own team go flag to flag and an enemy squad will do the same thing. So it's like both teams running circles all game just trying to cap flags.

Zerging really kills the strategy involved in the game and makes defending objectives you already have pointless. There needs to be a balance between PTFOing and being a slayer.
Odds AMEN! Bring back the old conquest for future battlefields
Odds - yeah, I agree with you... but Fort Vaux was like that until people got used to it too. After a week or so, it played out much more "as designed" (and still does unless you get spawn trapped). Let's hope this one does too.
The problem has actually become a curse for BF1 this never happened in BF4.

*When all DLCs were announced*
Me: “wow I’m so hyped especially for Turning tides cause I’m Australian”
*when the French dlc came out*

Me: “there’s no severs running the French dlc”

*when apocalypse comes out*
Me: “oh my fucking god, 3 maps mostly based on infantry and 2 based on aerial combat but I bet nobody is gonna play that after day 1, with shitty assignments for the new perks which downgrades teamwork and encourages scouts to snipe far back, not helping teams to spot, no new vehicles for this dlc and WHY in God’s name do I keep on lagging or having a constant frame drop!!?!”
Just be happy we got a campaign mission at least. Lest we forget.
"Major army" the commonwealth is clumped together in every historical game, you got a medic skin at least
The Australians were in TT though? The entire Australian army didn’t all wear slouches and shorts
Iron Maiden single shot and iron sight? You know automatic weapons and optical sights are a thing in bf1?
Really? i can find servers for every map on PC EU and air superiority sucked in every bf game
I went through resetting my router and a long call to my provider thinking my internet was messed up, the stuttering is unreal for me on PS4, quite disappointed
DJ Crisis UK same here dude lag and stutter since ttk patch
On all maps/gamemodes, or only the air combat one?
Lewy g mine started today after the apocalypse update, not had this issue before even with the ttk patch
Same for Xbox One
DJ Crisis UK same for Xbox one s I figured it was a server problem after doing the ole reset.
Levelcap has grown increasingly pessimistic over the years.
Glad I'm not the only one who experienced slow down. I literally got accusations I was Lag Switching because of this :(
Being accused of lag switching in a game with dedicated servers. O i am laffin.
Burt Sampson Guess anger clouded their mind
DarkshadowXD63 people accuse lag switching when there's any amount of lag...they always think it's someone else and not just think it's simply just lag lol.
Boi how would you be lag switching with dedicated servers
People are retarded to think that
Fun fact: Passchendaele was so muddy during the war, soldiers would drown in the mud.
I’m getting tired of this That is not very run at all
That doesn't sound fun though
Whoosh.
Makes sense
While the fact is interesting if true, you should choose your words better next time. Nothing fun about soldiers dying. Id slap the shit out of you if you said that near me IRL
Did u see those new dogtags? Their insane like, destroying a behemoth with a kolibre? Or an airplane with a tripwire he?
Kristopher Koperski idk if you are serious
He is
Kristopher Koperski gonna have to time that kilibre shot well and for the trip wire kill I haven’t a clue just hope spline crashes into it
It’s to force you to do the other five unless you somehow manage to do it. Also it’s a meme, Dice decided to be the ultimate shitlords with the assignments.
DarthLawless91 that would really mess with Someone’s head if they were a collector of every item
7:10 He complains about people playing the objective.
yeah but the map design should make it so everyone captures the objectives AND fights each other at the same time which is what the intention of conquest is
The first person in HISTORY ever complains about people playing the objective
His point is very valid. People forget that defending is also part of playing the objective, but since capping flags garners more points, you get swarms of people running around doing just that.
Santiago Esquivel that's my point, it is not enough to just run around and capture objectives
maccorororoni cheezitz When the fuck does that not happen? What are all you people smoking??
How fitting it drops untested with these issues, stinks of a lazy 'just bare bones it we have the premium pass money already' attitude. So disappointing overall from something that has been billed for a year and a half as something that would be epic!! '_'
No new vehicles, no new sentry kits, no new Operation despite the most fitting maps to have it on in terms of history and community requests, new weapons are recycled assets mostly, no new armies or skins, fewest maps to drop in a DLC (dont get it twisted, there are 3 new maps), fewest weapons to drop in a DLC, AND on top of all this.

I’m proud of you guys for sticking with BF1 all the way until the last DLC. The game is so boring. I lasted like 2 months and called it quits.
iHaveDownSyndrome idk Same here except I always intended on coming back for Apocalypse when they first announced it simply for some real trench maps guess I'll be a bit disappointed.
now if only air assault still had players. it's sad how fast that mode died
Can you teach Matimi0 how to say "exacerbate?" He always says "exasperate."
JoeyJoeJoeJrShabadoo but levelcapgaming murders names all the time lol
Both are correct. Depends what you are trying to say...
jeffy141 nah lets fix it with FLEX TAPE
jeffy141 Right. I understand that. Matimi0 uses "exasperate" when he means "exacerbate."

Why must you compplain about such tiny things. This is what gets half the content deleted from the game. Oh i was killed 2 times that game by the same guy? means the guns op, nerf it dice! What do you find annoying about afflictions? That one person on your team will have slightly less health than you? ahh that makes it tottaly unfair and ruins the game for others doesnt it!? Its the players choice to do it and they might want the extra challenge to the game doesnt mean you have to use it just let it be. Half the maps on r6 got taken out because of this same ype of whyning, theres nothing wrong with the game or map its you being picky and needing it to be like you want it because you said so.
Kuba Banas ok
Problem is this: just because LCG is decent at hitscan aiming does not mean he has a fucking clue about anything else. You see a young man with a massive sense of entitlement, making hilariously false statements, because he doesn't like how he got killed. A relative newcomer to games, a novice at the BF franchise, and he thinks his opinion matters. It doesn't but he has his platform here to cry and mouthbreathe and it gets him attention so why NOT do it?
Ok
Kuba Banas OK
One hell of a rant sir well said... Cheers!
“Perfect battlefield map”. -Mostly infantry cqb limited vehicles and they don’t exert much influence - how the hell did levelcap become a prominent member of the BATTLEFIELD community. He even complains about aircraft disrupting infantry
He would have hated the old games
And he complains about PLAYING. THE. OBJECTIVE.
You can tell Dice is tired of BF1 production - they're on to something else now.
I mean, it's WW1. I think they've covered about all they really can at this point. Now if it had been WW2, we could've had a FUCK ton of content
nunnybunny bs there’s tons of weapons and maps they could have done
There's still stuff to cover. World War 1 was kind of a HUGE thing. It was fought all around the world, not just in Europe and the Middle East, and there were a surprising number of fronts and so many inventive and revolutionary weapons. The Canadians aren't even in the game!
The only reason I'd want DICE to stop making maps for BF1 is because the game takes up a fifth of my hard drive and couting.
They limited themselves from the start, they didn't even have the Eastern Front or France at release! I agree with +Bulley, they could have had so much more and it didn't help that the progression system was dull as well.
nunnybunny You're right, there's not much to cover in a World War. Just because you don't know very much about the First World War doesn't mean there isn't very much to it, lol. As Bulley said, Dice limited themselves right from the start. They obviously wanted to make a Second World War game (with modern warfare action) but were stuck with the First World War theme.
Mate, I play on 27 FPS, chill out about the stutter.
Battlefield 1 Apocalypse DLC broke my heart Day 1
I expected more too, the maps are still gorgeous though, and the trailer was cool.
Yeah, a patch or two wouldn't hurt.
E Dean dice also broke the slide mechanics in this as well...
loses a twentieth of a second "OH MY GOD IT'S UNPLAYABLE!"
I just got the stutter issue after the DLC dropped earlier. Im glad to see its not only me.
lil-Fly-Raist I play on console and have 2 accounts to play on. One account has the stuttering and the other has no issues whatsoever
lol ppl on pc with i5 cpus has this problem since day one
jdc527 Gaming this is a really weird bug then
The heavy hitting sniper load out
Primary: martini Henry
Secondary: obrez
Gadget one: tripwire bomb he
Gadget two: flare gun
Melee: and heavy melee
You were a weightlifter that wanted to help fight for his country, use the powerful martini Henry to force your way into the objectives, and if some strangle through, finish them off with the obrez. If an enemy gets to close to you, use your biceps and triceps to swing your heavy melee weapon. Love your gameplay levelcap, keep up the good work
My frame ratw drops whenever I shoot at somebody
rain wav same
Me too mine us so bad it's basically unplayable
Ya I stopped after playing for 5 minutes, hopefully they fix it by this upcoming weekend
I’ve been having issues since the last update. I bought the game and it ran fine but the moment they put outhe last update my FPS just crashed. It’s like a slide show sometimes.
This happen to me every time i get a point, now is impossible to play the a big part of the servers of this dlc are empty (i play on ps4)
It's APOCALYPSE for Battlefield 1 PLAYERS...
Dr Gru I enjoy it. I've had none of the problems the rest of you seem to. I don't know anyone else who is personally either.
DICE PLZ
why did you need to edit that comment
Zosemiux lol
love LOVE all the footage of enemy players that barely fight back
Me and my friends played some bf1 today and every single time we got a hitmarker the game lagged evn though all of us have a great internet connection. Dice, fix your game
Yeah it's horrible on air assault haha
Just try to go on a flank and kill 5 guys with a dynamite and your game will freeze completely XD
Same, can't even shoot without lag....
I thought it was just my laptop. Now I glad that I'm not the only one
Well my friends told me to join them and told me that there's a lot of lag. I thought it just happened to them but once i joined the game 3 minutes after i went on a flank with my friends and threw some explosives behind them. Guess what, once we detonated them the entire server crashed so did everyones' game. We rejoined and the server was empty. GGs
Usually every DLC update breaks something on my end, but for once I've been blessed with no issues. My previous stutter problems seem to have disappeared. Which is weird, but a pleasant surprise.
I hope it doesnt take as long as it did for the game to work after the Russian DLC
Al-Jay Magnifico its over 9000
Joe Wuh-Puh you are right
The dogfight mode is cool I guess, but I'd much rather have wanted more ground maps
hope the next battlefield isnt so casual
same, hopped in for the first time since russian dlc and was racking up kills like it was nothing...
Won't happen. It will be 90% of the same game but in WW2...see BF3 to BF4.
Ricky B same all you have to do is get a sneaky flank in it also surprises me how blind my teammates can be sometimes
DaMainDude which is sad because it looks to me that the skill based games are gaining more popularity, so why stay casual?? Who knows maybe they’ll change thing up in the next game. We’ll just have to find out
kevin chadwick but when I play bf4 I’m not racking up nearly as many kills as in bf1, but that could be that the maps are smaller compared to bf4 maps
"No airplanes"
"Perfect Battlefield cocktail"
the lack of operations was disappointing, I was expecting more maps too.
Yeah, I was kinda hoping that the Somme would have been an Operations or at least have it tied in with Devil's Anvil; since they practically happened at the same time.
I understand the US came late in the war, but only like 2 maps for them? wow
There are operation maps in apocalypse. There in shock operation for the somme
They’ve changed the smg 08/18 with this update as well. They upped the power and fire rate. They also upped the vertical and horizontal recoil and made it overheat quicker to compensate.
That’s trailer is the best trailer lol
PasoFreak cause it is.
PasoFreak You tried to copy what he said. Even with the text on the screen, you still messed up.
PieceOfPisa If he was trying to copy what he said word for word, he would have put "That's" instead of "That is".
PieceOfPisa No, he actually made it more difficult. No quotation marks, and it wasn't word for word.
He was pointing out the grammatical error in the original comment, you inept mongoloid.
There's a bunch of teddy bears hiding in boxes on Caporetto, I approve.
The green water is actually sewage because during the Battle off pachendaele there was a 10day artillery barrage which demolished sewage lines soooo😘🤮
I thought it was all the gas in the air that maybe some of the water just soaked the gas
BlackBoxGaming no actually it's the settled gas from gas attacks
Might be both. Who knows what the hell that slop is.
BlackBoxGaming Yes, battle where people drown in mud, add an emoji
Blackboxgaming because sewage is green and in a gas state
I found a kind of easter egg on the b point on passiondale where you can pick up the bottle in the trailer and use it as a melee weapon
So, maps from single player for DLC? DICE Please
Finally found somebody talking about this. I'm experiencing this horribly on PS4 with not just kills but all hit markers. Hope this gets "fixed" asap.
rumors say they announce bf 2018 in march, or why did they release this dlc so early compared to the others?
naturbur E3*
They'll either announce it during E3 or their EA game expo conference
they announced bf1 before e3
no the first announcement will most likely be before e3 like bf1, prob may march seems a little early
Bf 2018 was announced to be released probably at october
I really glad that the microstudder is something in game, I thought it was my hardware messing up but I do have confidence that dice will fix it in time for the non premium release cause my lag was not only from killing players but doing damage to them too.
This is easily the laziest dlc in any Bf game...
Reskin weapons
3 maps which I swear have some reused assets
2 complete copies of campaign maps
Glitches
Conquest assault
Being honest the DLCs just got worse the more That released
TSNP 9/10
TSAR 8/10
TUTI 6/10
APOC 3/10
The Brownie On A Plate Gaming tbh Kazershlacht (I’m sure that’s wrong) is paschendale in the day....their whole “it’s apocalyptic” thing has already kinda been done, they definitely needed more content, especially on their final DLC.
Three of the maps are directly from the story mode, I'm so disappointed by this game I went back to bf3
I agree, i wasnt impressed.
The Brownie On A Plate Gaming both of the air maps were from the campaign
While I respectfully disagree with your scores for the other dlc I agree that Apocalypse is pretty lackluster. It would have been better if they released before TSNP. Doing so would have partially addressed the poor release schedule, the assets are already there so it would have been easy to do, the expectations would have been relatively low for the first dlc, and adding the AA gun and Air Assault earlier would have been good for the meta.
That trailer was really intense! I enjoyed that quite a bit. Makes me wish Berdu still made videos...
I’m disappointed that there’s no new vehicles, there are many different cool options they could of used
That ll do Donkeh there's allot of cool stuff they could have done with this game but they didn't do it.
That ll do Donkeh they rushed this in order to prepare for the release of the new BF
Totally agree with you bout aircraft over dominating. I'd like to see some team balancing, something like if there is a points disparity vehicles can't spawn. That'd make a huge turn in points! Also, thank god you mentioned the stuttering, I've been suffering from this for some time, to the point some days I just don't play.
As someone who plays this game regularly, I hate how dice just don't give a shit about it anymore. It's literally the most successful game in the entire franchise and now they're just tossing it away as if it's a used condom. There's still so much potential for content but if they keep neglecting their game like this just to make way for bf 2018, then bf 2018 won't sell very well
prophet
i love the all quiet on the westren front quote
I am on a ps4 and its unplayable for me. Any damage I take or any damage I do the game stutters. Revives also make it stutter. I untracked everything with no change.
Yeah, I tried to play and it was just hit markers that affected the game but itwas frustrating so I turned off, then a few hours later I thought Id try again and it was much worse!
Same here I feel your pain ! I stopped playing it's that bad and what makes it worse my girlfriend has a playstation and TV next to mine and hers us working fine now stuttering at
Its a sad day on the battlefield for sure.
Lady Lynn same here
Idk about you, I’m fine on pc and ps4
Ohhh mahhh gawd I’ve been watching your vids since u were at 400k subs ! I grew so much !!
I'm having the exact same issue on PS4 and just game breaking I can't play it until it's fixed
Played River Somme for the first time, I was on the attacking team and we won. I was so surprised, it’s such a good map if you don’t get spawned trapped at the start.
I’m Experiencing stutter as well.
I really do hope that they add more content to Apocalypse. I was really excited for the DLC when i saw it, being able to fight in Somme and what I thought Verdun and Tannenberg. I was really excited to have new vehicles and more weapons. It's really. Disheartening to see that all we get is 3 maps and some new guns which as cool as they are don't really pack as much of a punch. Regardless, i'm still happy we get more content. I just really hope that they add more stuff because to me this was the most hyped up DLC because of how epic it sounded.
Your problem is uncommon and they dont make the game for people who overclock or turboboost. The target acquisition is fine considering the contrast between player and sky in that map is distinguished. I havnt even noticed anyone giving my position away with any afflictions. (I believe the afflictions is like a passive middle finger to the masses that will complain about anything after dieing. Like it makes you worse there is nothing to complain about.) did you notice how they also fixed the specializations? Didn't hear you mention that. And the theme is dark yes i like it.
Phillip Hughes it‘s not uncommon. Just because you don‘t experience it doesn‘t mean others don‘t. Since the last patch, a bunch of people have been experiencing lag and stutter without overclocked cpus.
Wow, "I don't have an issue so I'm gonna push down anyone who has". "You have an issue on PS4? Why don't you buy a 2000 dollar cpu and buy the game again on PC?" You are the worst kind, sorry to say. Please heal. Game is completely unplayable for me and apparently for many others. Maybe you play on bot mode and then I understand you would not care.
Carl Bergfeldt I bet thats frustrating. Ive seen it yeah. They made a few big mistakes at the end there thats for sure but that should be expected with big change. I just like the fact that they are trying to fix the game and make it into what it was supposed to be.
Phillip Hughes ok, sorry for being a bit rude, lets see if they fix their shit :)
Phillip Hughes at least 3 people on every server that actually respond including myself get extreme lag and frame drops. Used to get 80 fps on high and now i get 40 on medium
Changing the direct X version from 12 to 11 got rid of the micro-stutter for me. Worth a try for anyone experiencing this problem. Hopefully it works. All the best LevelCap!
Also, you dont speak for everyone. Just because you dont want afflictions doesnt mean we wont.
So this is why my battlefield 1 was updating today
Wait a sec Apocalypse was released already?
BUT What TV The trailer came out today I think and I had no idea until I scrolled in the comments and noticed the title of this video.
Came out today for premium members. The people who don’t have premium will have to wait for 2weeks.
Played it last night. The air battles suck. You attack or defend airships but the problem is fighters are too weak to take down airships well but dominate all other planes. So if your in a bomber or attack plane trying to take down a airship your dominated in the ass and nothing you can do about it.
I was honestly horrified at Passchendaele. I felt I was actually in the real conflict.
Other than graphics, the quality of EA games has been going down so sharply and im really worried
Surprising, what's not surprising is how much money you save by NOT buying EA games
EA doesn't make games. They publish them. What the fuck are you talking about?
In my opinion DICE Stockholm makes very polished games. BF4 being the exception here. BF1 is a solid game. The only issues I have are with the current conquest ticket system and the ridiculously quick respawn rate.
Alan Rickman Bioware, Dice, Respawn, and visceral are all studios that work for EA. EA has implemented business policies that have ruined the games made by these studios. I thought this was pretty fucking obvious but i guess not for people like u
Alan Rickman and i didnt even mention madden of fifa. Oh god those games have gone downhill
Remember when vehicles dominated the battlefield in battlefield games and infantry tried to dodge around them. I miss those true battlefield games
it's unplayable on console... (PS4)
John Stoner For Life I don't have a problem with it....
John Stoner For Life It works perfect on the Xbox One X XD
John Stoner For Life git gud
The whole game is unplayable the dlcs fucked the whole game up
Yep. Imo a let down. But then I find conquest assault in BF1 to be an annoyance. I’m just hoping BF2K18 is better. Whether it’s modern day, WWII, Vietnam, or whatever. It needs to be a lot more like previous games (once they were improved).
I freakin love river somme
IstvánKiss yeah it’s insane
It’s nice, but if the British team can’t break out at the first flag it’s a complete base rape
Vuile, as was the battle of the Somme
guess you haven't spawned on the attacking side...
Charles Hård Yes I have I've only played on the attacking side yet. A good tip two quickly get behind the enemy at the beggining of the match is to get on the motor bike and flank around the side. And I'm not a big fan of CQA but I do like the map so...
Kaiserschlacht (I’m sure that’s spelled wrong) is basically paschendale in day time....like they have a church, trenches and bunkers. Having two air maps is hardly 2 maps since you don’t exactly use different cover you just fly around in the open air (flying close to the mountain doesn’t count). And Caporetto was kinda of a cool addition in all honesty...nothing too bad about it. But for their final DLC, you gotta finish stronger than that.
RIP Sliding :(
Frontlines gives the true experience, Operations does as well, but I enjoy the fact that the fronts can move back and forth. It really should be implemented into the new maps, and the amount of players in a frontlines server should be increased at least up to 20 or 25 per team
I fixed my BF1 stutter with this fix, it has worked for many people. If you are on windows10 Creators+ update then the memory is going to make you stutter when the free memory is exhausted. www.reddit.com/r/Windows10/comments/7a0763/standby_memory_issue_causing_stutters_on_creators/
thx i will try it out
I’ve seen the pro-players on RUclips showing us their stutter from playing their top-end PCs, and let me tell you - their stutter is NOTHING compared to the stutter my game has on PS4. It so bad that whenever I make a kill in the aircraft, it lags so much that I end up crashing lots. The lag is so bad.
And the lag isn’t only from kills. It’s huge lag with each and every landed bullet using any weapon, and even while acquiring points for conquering zones, etc. I hope the fix comes real soon!
The smg 08/18 it's good now
A similar theory was with JC3, with terrible frame rates when you blew a bunch of stuff up. One theory was that the game was uploading every destruction to leaderboards, which slowed down the game. Idk if this is 100% true, but if anytime you’re gaining score/kills its uploading the data to a bunch of stuff like the assingments, it could well be a cause.
More garbage open maps with almost no vehicles ... air assault is amazing tho :) .... will "tank assault" be coming?
no
please go no. think about it please. the only thing people would use is the tank sniper land ship.
No
River somme and pashendalle are almost identical this was such a piss poor dlc i noticed sites like ign and gamespot didn't cover this i now know why. I wouldn't have even known this already came out. It just screams laziness even the new weapon unlocks are lazy get 50 assault kills get 50 scout kills thats it lol. Very shitty ending to a great game
Tank assault would work with BF4 but not 2. Unless it’s based on WW2
The vehicles is a reason for me playing tdm for most of my time on the game in it I don't have to worry about getting bombed by planes or getting blown up by tanks that kill you before you can do reliable damage to them
They ruined the Slide mechanic!
Agilitypop probably the only thing they’ve done right.
I think spell check went crazy. It replaced fixed with ruined.
Agilitypop I'm not aware, what did they do exactly?
Stuttering as infantry when trying to kill enemies, I thought my internet was starting me, instead it's Dice starting me and every other BF1 player. Thanks Dice.
I played this game for only like 2 weeks when it came out and got bored and haven’t played since lmao
G Thomas wow. Good for you.
I completely quit after the 2nd dlc, sad part is I bought the "season pass", played the first dlc a little bit(wasn´t too bad), left, came back when the Russian dlc came out and left again after I had played it once (didn´t like it at all), it was not my type of dlc and I just don´t like this game anymore... Every map looks the same i.m.o.
G Thomas As if anyone cares... This literally says nothing other than: “I played the game but got bored”
Good
Are we supposed to care?
*hears stutter* brain:bf5? me:no it's bf1
Wtf is that 9 round heavy recoil sh!t cant even get more that 3 kills with one mag
Trash gun, give it to tanker class
AspectROish yes
Yes thank you Level I so hate that BF1 conquest curse both team bunching up and running to objective after objective team have no intention to contest flag or help with other objectives.
Lol I’ve got no stutter
Are you low level maybe, or didn't play on the new maps?
Khorney I’m like level 60 something but I haven’t played the new maps
Are you on PC, Xbox, or PS4?
Lucky. Every time I do damage with a marker it lags. It also stacks so it's really hard to get kills
Daniel Do ps4
I’ve been playing the new plane mod and I love it I may do some videos when the DLC officially launches
OH NO, you dont get your flat 60+ fps for 0.1 of a second, poor you, game is now 100% unplayble
It's a total mess for me.. every hitmarker it studders like crazy. Probably a full second of massive lag each kill and .25 each hit. It's not a small issue
for me it happens with any type of hit markers,healing, revives, capturing etc. and yeah kills basically pause my game
For real Battlefield is just casual.
Well I'm sure you don't have a pc
FenKoGaming you sound like a very punchable person
In BF4, Aerial Superiority didn't last too long as well, so i don't think it's a big surprise that the BF1 version, Air Assault, doesn't work. Also, that scream on 2:55 lol
River Somme has the same problem Suez had when BF1 first released, it's completely one side battles, either you dominate or your enemy dominates
I remember in the first 3 DLCs, you wouldn't get to use the new guns because the assignments didn' require it.
“In flanders fields poppies grow”
Aerial combat mode: each team gets a zeppelin and a bunch of planes. Goal is to destroy the other team's behemoth
I thought the game felt a little odd when I was playing the new maps last night, until I saw this video I didn't realise it too much. Hopefully this gets fixed soon, love the new content.
I love the afflictions. They're so funny to me
"London Calling" woah The Clash album.
Didn't anyone notice that the new Anti Air AT Rocket Gun that made it into the game on the Assault? My Brother and me yesterday dominated pretty much any Pilot since you only need 3 Shots to take out any Plane. It was VERY easy to take them out since the DMG and the Radius is relly good and easy to hit.
I'll be honest, I have never seen that "conquest effect" you mentioned, where teams seem to deliberately avoid eachother for the sake of getting points from flags. While Passchendaele can turn into a really ugly spawn camping against the Germans (at least until they learn to use the Livens Launcher at their main base to break into their gimmi point), I've not seen the teams just avoid eachother. I played the map about a dozen times today across just as many different teams, never happened.
I kind of wish DICE added new player models for each side to make soldiers more "apocalyptic" and war-torn to add to this DLC's theme. I have no clue how hard it is to create new player models but it would have been a nice touch
Every time I notice I get "stutter" its usually because the server has 4 or 5 people with 150 or even 200+ ping. Aside from operations I don't see any of the game mode related issues that LC talks about.
The fact that Conquest Assault is the default CQ gamemode on Turning Tides and Apocaplyse maps is a fucking crime!
Thought I was having an internet problem as this happens at once a game for about 10 seconds--generally four to five stutters. Glad to know it wasn't just me.
My first game on Somme was a shooting gallery the Brits got trapped in their spawn and the landship kept getting blown up I felt bad for them but I got A LOT of marksman headshots so… not that bad. The second time I drove the landship to C and was yelling in the chat GET OUT! That brought back memories of BF3 Kharg Island rush so it felt good.
I would really like DICE to remaster Battlefield 3 for new gen consoles.
To be honest the apocalypse maps are some of my personal favorites in the entire game so far but I was really hoping they would step it up with a map completely engulfed in gas like a thick, killer fog that forced all players to use their gas masks throughout the game, I thought that would be really interesting and intense because no one would be able to view down their sights. But that’s just my opinion, I still love the chaos and realism of the torn up trench-full maps I would expect from a WW1 game. This is one of the few FPS games that just keeps on giving it seems. 😊🖖🏻
