Battlefield 1 .... meh

Here are the rifles at the bottom of the medic screen:

Come to think of it.  I have never been able to use the Standard Issue rifles.  I only got to use the Primary Weapons.

Apparently there are servers which only use standard issue rifles.  Otherwise it's the customizable primary weapons.

Well that's disappointing. But hey it's Battlefield. My expectations are very very low.
But boy it's a blast with the boy and some of my mates... because learning squad tactics is more fun than the game itself.
It's also fast enough to give you a good dose without the need for huge time investment as some other FPS shooters have.... ARMA3 or Squad (have not played squad).

I have now come to the conclusion that bf1 is far too fast and the maps too small to allow any real squad tactics other than running around behind people and squad spawn camping. It's exciting at first but once you get over the graphics and the schere spectacle of it all. You want to go back to something slower where men have mass and move more slowly with a good sized hitbox.

Battles in Star Wars seems more organized

My feelings exactly

My take, the whole concept of BF1 was EA COD'ing the battlfield lineup. The games now are a far cry from BF:BC2 and even BF3 days.

Eastern front coming...hard to tell if there will be another SP campaign. I pray there will be.

I was just happy to see them.

This is why I play Heroes & Generals.

I can usually stomach some stretching of history for game play's sake....but BF1 just goes too far for me.
