Golmud is coming to BF6

[bebops-ghost]

I was not getting claymore kills on Golmud. I was getting enemy damage hits instead.

Saw the same. There were times when they walked right thru and did not trip.

They stupidly changed damage from 100 to 95 for no apparent reason. Claymores do not result in a kill anymore.

Hey Whitefish, Can you lower the requirements from 4 to 1? So anyone can get it started and others can join in if they are around. Would be a good practice server when others arent around.

I’m not sure I can in its current form. 4 was the lowest I could go.

Also I can’t do anything. Until my internet is fixed . It went out this am and they still don’t have a reason or a time for repair.

Fuck I didn't notice that, just thought I was unlucky.

Glad I wracked up some claymore kills in contaminated before at least.

I was just thinking that maybe it was due to my slow computer and it didnt trip until player got past. I will try putting out some on the smaller 8V8 maps tonight to see if they still work. Is the 95% damage only for the Large maps?

After two games as recon on the 8V8 maps i got:

4 clay kills
4 pfffttts

It appears its a global change to the claymore not map specific

Im back online.

As a followup I am still kind of a noob with Portal map builder so its a learn as you go process for me.

It seems that if I pick a Portal Custom default build I can make it start with 1 player but it may not be considered official and gives no XP and Golmud isnt one of the available maps.

If I select Verified Modes and select Conquest it has Golmud but I cannot lower the player count to start below 4.

Nerf the claymore until we get the UCAV

I see that a lot of players are using suppresors on their guns and they dont show up on the mini map. This didnt effect BF4 that much as I recall.

Also, spotting enemies puts out sound alerts that enemies notice and they come looking for you. In BF4 the recon drone player put out the same sound alerts that everyone could hear. So its gonna be hard not to do the spotting in BF6.

I haven't done a suppressor build for my main gun as of yet but I think I may mess around with it at some point. Not being spotted on the mini map if your playing on Golmud up around the old ABC would probably come in very useful.

On a side note, I had another great game where my squad was battling for the new F old A flag. That seems like a really fun flag to battle over if you have a good squad.

Slightly off topic-

You know it's funny, something about modern games feel off to me. Then you look at the maps from back in the day and...
Everything was just so bare, now maps have loads of environmental effects and tons of shit all over the place. Pretty crazy to look back at it in comparison.
