    Just a heads up, you can log into the career page and spend your war bonds to unlock anything you like including anything that is class level locked which is handy considering there is a bug that stops you leveling up classes. URL is https://www.battlefield.com/en-gb/career

    EA got ddos’d so it might be causing problems.

    Matt and Gary next time squad up! 😉

    Oh and wasnt there automaticmeat too…

    Matt maybe Max noticed allready on Alpha that medics are just useless… 😆

    We were in a squad of 5 mate, and yea that’s a good point re medics, what have they done to them.

    Don’t forget TS guys when you’re on btw.

    Medics are far from useless. I played medic for 5 mins right at the end of a match and got most heals, most revives and top score! It helped that Matt got shot to shit after sticking his head around any corner and everyone else in the squad dropping dead constantly! Dropping medkits and resing was a full time job 😆

    well my med comments was because revs doesnt affect on ticks anymore and the spawn system is quicker… and them tanks…

    Its ok i guess!

    Might be more enjoyable when I get a mic sorted and when i work out how to join others into a game (don’t know why i have a join game option on some that are playing while on most its not there?)

    Gun mechanics seem a bit off to me hopefully it doesn’t take them 6 months to fix this time.

    Don’t like the daft train that spawns or anything like that as it takes away from the balance of the game.

    Fluphy it doesnt work properly on the game itself just as you have noticed. Go from Origin’s friends list and join there the desired friend who is playing works like a charm. 😉

    Cheers mate. I will give that another go as I kept getting an error message when I previously tried it.

    got most of my keys bound how i want them though there”s still a few issues i’m finding. In other BF games i can use the mouse wheel to scroll through all weapons, ammo/medic packs grenades etc but for some reason i can only scroll between the pistol and rifle which is annoying but I’ve bound some keys to deal with that.
    The other issue is jumping. I’ve bound that to NUM1 (i use arrows to move as i’m left handed so WASD is awkward) but i can’t jump when i want, i find the first jump is ok but it then goes back to being the bayonet charge. As i’m typing this i’m wondering if that key is now bound to two actions – i’l check that later.

    I’m enjoying the game it self though there’s some crazy glitches like people rubber-banding when they run past and floating guns on some areas of the map. I don’t know if it’s me but from the vids I’ve watched and playing in-game there doesn’t appear to be any bullet drop; pretty much from whatever distance you aim at someone dead on and you hit them.

    Playing last night with max and fluph was the first time in ages I’ve really enjoyed a BF game. No fancy proximity sensors or hi-tech gizmos but just raw weaponary and teamwork. I’ll get a mic sorted so that i can use the VOIP or TS.

    I’ll hopefully get to have a go or three over the weekend.

    Just thought of another annoying thing: you can’t use a joystick in the game unless it’s just not recognising mine.

    WET i think joystick isn’t working in beta but should in full game.

    For me they could take out a few more weapons to make it skill based (and fixed gun mechanics as it feels random) plus I need to go read up on WW1 again as I don’t recall the biplane rocket pods/carpet bombers 🙄
