I have... I don't even know how many hours in Battlefield 1. 700?
Anyway, I have quite a few hours in.
But some random, intersting things still happen to me.
Like, today while I was playing as a medic and using General Liu rifle, I randomly pressed "v" on my keyboard. I expected that it will change my zero distance for some reason, even though SLR's don't have that option.
But instead, my soldier did a quick little animation (similar to the one when you're putting a grenade onto your SLR) and converted the gun into a bolt action rifle. I thought the animation was a bug, too, since I don't have a grenade launcher equiped, but when I shot for the first time, I got my mind blown xD
Even though it's nothing special, it's a function of that gun, it's not an easter egg or whatever, I still got surprised and quite happy for some reason.
And it's a decent bolt action rifle too. Good sights and good sweet spot (even tho I don't like the sweet spot mechanic, but I gotta deal with it, so I might as well accept it, lol)
It's accurate as well.
And funny enough, better than some bolt rifles for the scout class :_D
Are there things that made you happy/surprised/blew your mind? Be it an easter egg or just a normal thing you didn't know about. Or even some detail that you really like! Feel free to share~

Yeah, I know about that one! It's a nice little animation. I like that they did it, so it doesn't just change magically
Thanks for sharing!
I’ve even killed a few people out of planes with it.
A side note I still giggle when I kill a low flying/dive bombing plane with a LT grenade
Ah yeah, I know how it feels. General liu wasn't my fave, it didn't feel right for me, but I know how it feels to have a fave weapon. Tho I use every weapon, often switch it up.
My fave SLR's are Selbstladers. Especially the two 1906 ones. But general liu went up on the list of SLRs I like just because of the bolt action feature, and I'm getting more used to it.
And that's quite a cheeky grenade then! I love moments like those too. Sniping a plane with the rocket gun and such. I even almost killed a plane by firing my mortar. Dude just flew above the place I fired at, so instead of the mortar hitting the ground, it actually hit a plane. Shame it wasn't a kill. Once I even sniped a plane over an extremely long distance with Cei Rigotti, which I didn't expect to actually hit.
But you doing it with grenades, that's awesome!
Ah yeah, I definitely love that as well. It's a nice thing to increase the immersion.
DICE did a great job with sounds in the game, that includes the voices.
Yesterday, while I was playing shock ops, my dude yelled "Please make it stop" when we lost a sector. And it made me, well, sad. Because you could hear the sadness and panic in his voice.
Some other things, like your soldier panicking when there's a grenade nearby are nice little details as well
Also, I always keep the voice-overs iriginal. I don't change it to universal language (so all factions speak the same language). That ruins the immersion for me, removes some fun out of the game.
Ps: I like learning other languages from Battlefield as well. Even though some phrases are useless for me, but it has always been fun for me
Thanks
I do it quite often, just for proof lol
Jeez, that's really impressive. The way you predicted so early where the plane is going to be. I didn't even know you can one-hit planes with light at grenades. I thought it was only possible with normal at grenades. I dud stuff like this to cavalry, but this is a whole new level :v
1. The “whoosh” that the stick grenades and russian grenade makes when you throw it.
2. The Italian voice line where he just coughs halfway through spotting someone.
3. The shells that eject out the top of the Putilov-
Garford
4. The bullets in guns like the Chauchat or RSC SMG visibly being depleted as you empty the mag.
5. The uncomfortably smooth and delicate reload the Arisaka 38 has.
6. Animals in the game besides horses (rats on Nivelle Nights, sheep and cow noises on Galicia, etc)
7. Music that plays when you take a sector in operations. Brusilov Offensive, Devil’s Anvil and Gallipoli contain my favorites.
Just a few things that I think are nifty about this game.
I’ve recently found this out by playing as a Scout. Pretty cool thing.
I also like how, depending on how many rounds you shot with the Parabellum MG14/17 determines how long you have to wind the cloth ammo belt before you change mags.
What it took me by surprise, I killed 3 players with full life ("enemy hit 300" on the screen) with one single Martini-Henry shot, non of those 3 kills were a head-shot. 2 with one bullet done it before, even with the general Liu on bolt action (not full life), double head-shots, but never 3 with chest shot with full life.
I've done that 3 times but only with the Martini-Henry.
Also small details, butterflies tend to pop up odd places when you're down waiting for a revive. Did a video on that once, during a live game, it was much downvoted.
Was playing medic the other day and our squad leader went down near me. Heard another soldier scream "Doc, sarge has been hit!"
Or when a sector or flag gets taken, sometimes you hear someone scream "Aghhh we're all gonna die".
Of course the classic reference when there isn't much going on, "All quiet, huh?"
The voice acting and responses in this game is top notch.
Everytime that happens I bring up the commarose and almost click "thank you" before I realize it`s just a automatic voice line
I like the panic voice lines that will play when someone nearby takes a heavy portion of damage or is supressed pretty hard. Esspecially since I understand the english and german ones, I like them quite a lot. Like the American screaming for his mother to help him. Or the german soldier saying "Verdammte Scheiße, die haben mich festgenagelt, helft mir!" which translates to "Damned crap, I'm under heavy fire, help me!"
They add some extra touch to the atmosphere and I quite feel for the poor soul in that situation.
