Has Panzer storm gone too?
Finally picked this back up last week after a few months off it. Not because I miss the game, but frankly the Xbox is thin on options at the moment! Doesn't seem like a lot has changed. Still buggy as hell, low on content even with the new map. Seems to be a fair bit of new content for those with cash to buy them though. £35 for 6000 BF points seems a little steep too!

Boys toy gun - So the armour piercing rounds actually means the gun doesn't do any damage to the tank it seems.
The f
kers have also removed a game mode i like to press the new map on us
Oh FFS, they did exactly the same with the recent grenade launcher / gun combo you had to play to unlock. I got the APR upgrade yesterday but haven't actually used the gun since due to other challenges. The f

The current challenge was easy enough but all that for a penknife?
It's also about time they brought over some of the Firestorm stuff into the main game, I want tractors I csn drive, not just hide next to.

Does anyone know anyone stupid enough to spend actual, real money on those "elite" kits that they are promoting every time I switch the game on?
Wouldn't mind if you could trade in the original company coins for these BFC ones.... I have something like 70,000 CC because I have no interest in changing the facepaint on my soldier... after all, its not like I even get to see it in game!

I thought you could at one point unlock a TOW Gun by using CC but they seemed to have put a stop to that.
Was playing around with the boys toy last night, so the armour piercing rounds currently dont do any damage to the tanks, but will damage a half track. However, APR rounds will take out a wall with the resulting explosion. So its kinda nice on Breakthrough where some snipers hiding in a building and boom, no more building.
Shame its just so slow to reload and not seeing used as much anymore

I didn't think people were daft enough to spend even more real money on this stuff but the other day I got a bit of a shock when a leprechaun was running alongside me wittering away in the worst Irish accent I've heard in a while, I've also heard some other unusual voices out there too so people are obviously gullible.

I think I've got something like 210,000 CC at the moment and I've spent some on the gun / vehicles upgrades as you level up - outfits etc are very much limited to the ones you get by playing the game because you only see it at the loading screen anyway and it's unlikely any fashion talent scouts are going to be playing BFV and offer me a job at Gucci on the basis of how I've mixed up various unlocks.
I've always preferred having to play for something that gives me an advantage over those that don't bother, now you can just spend BFC to skip things or buy items that are unobtainable to those of us who actually put time into this game. It's basically Apartheid for gaming.

The idea of in game purchases has sealed my deal on now skipping this title. With 2000 hours combined on 3 and 4 it’s a real shame
I would say that would be a shame as whilst it’s currently light-ish they appears to be more coming and what there is not bad and can be quite epic, with spitfires and V1s It took a while for BF1 to get off the ground.Gassing Station | Video Games | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
