FishyFish

I’ve been to a few myself, usually for corporate stuff like marketing etc. I won a Bahamas cruise at one of them and had my prize awarded by Phil Jupitus. Plus, let’s not forget that Dante’s Fires had an awards ceremony.

For anyone waiting fore the official companion site to be in place, this site has some decent stats if you're interested. https://battlefieldtracker.com/bfv/profile/psn/FishyFishArcade/overview As with BF1, my overall stats are suffering thanks to my habit of flying aircraft.

Thanks. I think he’ll be fine with the digital version if that’s what’s available in the U.K.

Has anyone tried the M30 Drilling for the Support class? The thing is a beast. It's a double-barreled shotgun with what amounts to a Martini-Henry stuck under the barrels.

The only pop-in I've noticed on vanilla-PS4 is on user built fortifications - mostly on the Airstrip map if someone has built sandbag fortifications in the central hangar - from a distance I can see right through the hangar, but if I zoom in on a scope they become visible. The re-supply timer they've added to the aircraft (bombers at least - not tried fighters yet) is pretty noticable and should remove the current practice of bombers flying never-ending sorties from one side of the map to the other (or at least reduce the frequency).

Yay this: The automatic spawn when round starts will be disabled in all game modes (except Final Stand). This change has been made to not force spawn players that temporary went "afk" during round transition and are not back in their seats at start. Also, glad to see this one too: Fixed an issue preventing squad spawning on the Blenheim airplanes.

When there are no aggresive enemy pilots around, you're pretty much impervious in the air. The only reason I didn't get far more kills is because of the difficulty in spotting tiny infantry from the air now that there's very little 3D spotting present. The one death was from an over-ambitious straffing run where an inconveniently placed building spoiled my fun.

Where’s the best place to get the US version (assuming it’s available)? I’ve seen the Japanese version up for sale (from pre-orders) on eBay, but not the US version. I rarely import games, so have no idea who to use these days. Ta.

Is there a UK release date for this? One of my kids wants it for Christmas. It appears to be 7 Dec in the US, but no sign of it for the UK. Ta.

Bloody hell - I'd forgotten all about doing that!

I think the AA guns (both the towable ones and the two AA tanks) need a buff to counter aircraft better. At present they're nigh-on useless against them - even fighters. If I'm flying the BF-109 with wing-mounted rockets, I can fly directly towards the AA guns, taking hits, launch the missiles and kill the gunner, and then fly away with probably 50% health that can then be repaired within about 10 seconds. Planes can also re-arm instantly by flying through the re-supply points (whereas tanks have to hold down the re-supply button) which is a little unfair given their relative imperviousness to damage, and means that they can just complete run after run of attacks with little to fear. The only thing that really concerns planes are other planes, but the bombers - especially the JU-88 - can easily ward off fighters with their secondary guns which, amusingly, do a shit-ton more damage to planes than AA shells. The AA should be more akin to what it was in BF1, so that planes are at significant risk if they stray into range and should have to take evasive action if they want to remain intact.

@George Clooney did some of these for different movie genres a few years back. Here's one of the threads - on horror movies - the others should be available through the search.

I spent the latter half of this round pootling around in my BF-109. After shooting down their planes for a bit, I turned my attention to the poor sods on the ground. Given that there's no 3D spotting to assit anymore (or rarely, at least), I didn't do too bad here - most of the kills are from guesses rather than having a clear target (the foolish scope-glint sniper who gave away himself and his team-mate, and the hapless fellas in the transport were my faves ).

Apparently, John Clark won’t be featured. Instead they’re using the Matice character to perform a similar role. Not sure why they chose to do that.
