Re: Battlefield 1 hit quetion

Hi @im19825 Depends what weapon they're using largely. If an enemy is using a shotgun in close quarters and you have a SLR, for example, then they'll most likely win. Same for if you're attacking a sniper within their sweet-spot - they'll potentially win as they'll oneshot you.

    Thanks for the reply
    So it doesn't affect what battlepack is bought for the game in terms of hit points?
    I don't know, compared to the campaign mode, the multiplayer is very difficult and the hit points are much harder to get than the opponent as long as you die sooner

    @im19825 There isn't really pay-to-win in Battlefield 1, so there's no way for players to buy buffs and so on, thankfully. Even the DLC weapons are on par with the base game ones for the most part. Also, everything from Battlepacks is either a cosmetic, a puzzle piece for a melee weapon, or an XP boost.

    What class and gamemode do you usually play? People on this board should be able to give you some tips.

    @im19825 Great, if you've got all the DLCs then I'd recommend unlocking the Federovs for the medic class, if you haven't already. They're basically assault rifles so you can hold your own quite well up close, but still be effective at range by using single shot or bursts. I am biased there slightly, though, as I have 100 service stars on the Optical version, so used it a lot. The Cei-Rigotti, Autoloading Extended, M1907 SL Sweeper are all very decent IMHO too.

    If it helps, I mostly use the BARs for Support as I find them effective at short to mid range (you'll reload a lot though), or the IMG from the Tsar DLC since it has a high ROF. I also generally use the Lee Enfield variants (or occasionally the M.95 carbine) for Scout as the sweet-spot is decent...and I'm British lol. I don't play Assault much, but when I do I usually favour the Ribeyrolles from the French DLC to give myself some range.

    Positioning is key in Battlefield, but you should pick that up naturally as you learn the maps. Although, it might be worth sticking with your team as much as possible and focusing on supporting roles (spotting, healing/reviving, and resupplying) over kills should help you learn how to play the classes effectively.
