All classes have carbines and engineers have PDW's. It seems like engineers are underpowered to me.

Elit3Nick3945d ago

How? They were overpowered in BF3, now at least with PDWs their vehicle warfare role is more clear.

xk773945d ago

they were never op in BF3. however now since all classes have access to carbines, then it makes all classes op

trenso13944d ago

@xk77 did you read what you typed? Even if every class is op wouldn't that just mean all classes are balanced?

@Elit3 i disagree they weren't op in Bf3 i just feel they were the most balanced class that didnt have many flaws that made it less use full or more power full like the recon and medic classes. But them having PDWs does make their role more clear as it will help them defend tanks they should be sticking by to repair.

Elit3Nick3944d ago

The problem with the engineer in BF3 is that they were already the most anti vehicle focused class in the game, but the addition of a carbine put them mostly on par with the other classes. Now that PDWs are the exclusive weapons now it makes them more fragile at range and encourages teams to protect the engies from infantry while they take care of vehicles

sAVAge_bEaST3945d ago

you can still Beast, with a UMP-45 & P90,..

Neixus3945d ago

ump-45 + silencer,holo and laser sight is sex

titletownrelo3945d ago

engineer is fine, he has the AT4, rpg, and launchers. But for BF4 I see no motivation whatsoever to use the Support class (besides ammo). :P

Another thing I noticed, the character models from BF3 look a lot more bad-ass than the ones on BF4...

SilverKiller3945d ago

the same C4 to recon :S weird i prefer on support with unlimited amount of AMMO lol however for balance the change is good hopw the LMG have less recoil this time around

ShabbaRanks3945d ago (Edited 3945d ago )

@Chapster

did you read the article ?

Engineers can use Carbines too. Carbines are for all kits now. But PWDs are exclusive to the Engineer class

Chapster3945d ago

I can read just fine. I don't understand why engineers were OP in bf3 though. Assault rifles are much better than carbines.

Why would you use a PDW in a huge map? The
"unique" primary weapon is therefore useless.

3-4-53945d ago

Well then use a carbine and problem solved.

I learned a bit of new information from reading this that makes me even more excited for this game.
First Aid Packs and Ammo Packs? That sounds awesome.
Being able to give full ammo to a your buddy who's completely out is so much more efficient than having to throw down the ammo box and your buddy having to sit there while it accumulates.
Same idea with the First Aid Pack. They are small additions that will make a big difference.

JackVagina3945d ago

I for one learned that a "Sniper Rifle" is a long ranged killing device

sAVAge_bEaST3945d ago

At least sniper's have c-4 again,.. I hated that in bf3

titletownrelo3945d ago

hopefully there is an optional accessory covering your scope that eliminates scope glare, because that shits annoying in BF3.

RedDeadLB3945d ago

It wasn't annoying, it's balance. The maps in BF3 are huge and cover and bushes are plenty. If there wasn't scope glare no one would ever see a sniper camped up somewhere on his tummy listening to spice girls.

I like the fact that snipers have C4 again, because they were definitely at a loss against anything not quite some distance away and on foot.

However, I don't see many people using the support class now because, let's face it, the C4 is why you take the support class in BF3. Exclusive suppression for the support class and ammo boxes don't really equate to the almighty C4.

sovietsoldier3945d ago

hope they add back the feature of tapping x to blow c4 like in bf2.

Battlefield 1, Hardline, BF4 Servers Are Being Taken Offline by Cheaters; EA Silent on Issue

Cheaters & hackers have been causing grief on Battlefield 1, Hardline & BF4 servers, with nonstop DDoS attacks among other things. Unfortunately, EA has remained silent about it.

-Foxtrot749d ago

Course they are silent, they are hoping people flock to 2042

gamesftw250748d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface748d ago

wouldnt be the first time, titanfall 1+2 anyone?

PapaBop748d ago

Not even if they paid me.. EA always do this with old games with less money potential, if this was Ultimate Team, they'd address and sort it faster than stories could spread. Why invest time in their products when they will just dump it in the following years? Then again EA never could see the forest for the trees.

Inverno748d ago

I imagine after those games were given out for free a couple months back through Amazon, anything that makes people go to 2042 is a plus for them

XiNatsuDragnel749d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps748d ago

Nah. I think they can't do anything about it or they want to sink money into fixing it.

Pudge102888748d ago (Edited 748d ago )

EA owns all BF servers so yes, they can do something about it but they refuse to because they dont want ppl playing their old games instead of the new one. Its EA we’re talking about here

pr33k33748d ago

if this happened in 2042, they'd have something to say. which is weird, considering battlefield 1 has more players on steam right now.

Pudge102888748d ago

Its so obvious that EA is doing this or hired ppl to mess up the games so that we’d be forced to have just 1 Battlefield working.

FPS_D3TH748d ago

Honestly it’s probably the devs themselves. They did an update to bf4 way back that kinda made assault rifles doo doo in hopes that people would flock to BF1 cuz BF4 was too perfect

There's a bunch of great shooters on gamepass; both legacy and new.

A recommendation I have is a work in progress preview title called Anacrusis. It's a lot of fun, and has a cool aesthetic.
