with the 'new' ie going back to original TTK (which i cant figure out if its been implemented or not yet), can you tell me what a hardcore mode would offer?
No minimap.
No ammo/health count.
No health regeneration.
Team killing.
No red triangles above heads.
No hit markers.
More competitive/realistic.

Just a few options i prefer.

Could you imagine how long the game would last if there was no time limit?

Unlocked the new sniper last night on tides of war.. meh feels similar to the zh 29 but the reload is a real pita, in bf1 it was a box mag am sure.

Choose rotterdam on a conquest server then panzerstorm is next in rotation so you get a full match with lots of vehicles. Didnt find any glitches although i made sure i called in a tank reinforcment, didnt rely on the squad wording.

Is it just me having problems on ps4 with things not registering on tides of war challenges? I've been stuck at 67/200 on the damage vehicles one for about 8 matches despite destroying about 5 tanks.

I've tried with other tanks, panzerfaust, AT grenade pistol but nothing seems to count?

It's hit and miss on most of them it seems - some things register, some don't, there doesn't seem to be a pattern.

Incredibly frustrating.

The pattern seems to be the server you join, most of them seem bugged as far as I can tell.

I saw a post on Reddit where someone suggested pausing the game, if the challenges don't show up in that screen then they definitely won't track and you should try another game on another server. However if the challenges do show they still might not track but there is a chance they will.

Might help ease some potential frustration for this but it's still a complete mess.

Yeah im having trouble with this issue too really should be sorted its incredibly frustrating
This game really could be great if they get the issues sorted the support disapearing ammo box reall gets on my wick .

It's just blind luck if any of the assignments track. I'm trying to do assualt 2 at the moment and you have to kill 4 people in a round in explosives, which to actually get it to track seems impossible. Considering the grenades have basically zero splash damage, it's very frustrating to have the kills not count when you do actually manage to kill someone.

Not sure about other assignments but with tides of war if you select the assignment and press A/x it will find you a game and it has always tracked for me smile

Vehicle kills with the anti tank mine and piat worked best for me.

Sneak up on tank, lay mines behind.. shoot back of tank but also detonate mines... dead tiger.

Also helps if a fully loaded transport finds your mines lol

Got this bought as a present. First thoughts subject to change as I play more....

- What a mess the menu system is. It’s like they went out of their way to make it clunky and as unintuitive as possible.
- Revive system is awful. I loved being a medic. No incentive now.
- Removal of spotting is a massive mistake.
- Same old BF in that if you are on a team against very good players it’s very difficult to win. The game doesn’t mix the teams so you end up on losing team over and over.
- Seems laggy.

Im sure things will get better as I play more.

Sadly I have been playing Battlefield for a long time now, they always suffer from the same problem - other players.... BUT if you can get a few mates to squad up and play as a team and you can massacre them.
