  @trenthegent21 @usa_specialist @Battlefield My guess would be to fine-tune the mode and deal with any lingering issues that they probably didn't think about or didn't care to address, given that both were initially limited time modes.

  Happy to state plainly that I'm going to need a *lot* more on how tactical nuclear weapon employment fits into the picture here. It doesn't match the pattern of horizontal escalation, it's not anywhere close to a doctrinal next step under any escalation model, there are no sudden battlefield losses or fundamental threats to the inviolability of the state, 'we need to shake ourselves out of stagnation seems entirely disproportionate, and it would be obviously destabilizing to both friendly foreign relations and domestic audiences. I have no problem withholding judgment or doing the 'analyst must just sit and wait' thing. But I'm really not convinced by the chatter.

  @CableVT IMO that **** never got old, especially since they were a rarer moment in the combat loop H5 variety was cool, but Reach and 4 having contextual direction based assassinations was the best system (Kinda like how Battlefield does it) I don't need 100 different assassination animations, just give me the option to do it Also they added a setting to toggle them anyways so the accident problem was solved. They 100% deserve to come back to Halo

  SOAA - Special Operations Association of America (@SOAAorg) reported 12 minutes ago

  Air Force Special Tactics exists to solve a specific problem: ground forces need airpower, and airpower needs eyes on the ground. The 24th Special Operations Wing is SOCOM's tactical air-ground integration force, embedding operators who can call precision strike, coordinate personnel recovery, establish airfields, and perform battlefield surgery, often within the same mission. That capability is what turns a ground element into something far more lethal than the sum of its parts, and it only works because those operators train alongside the teams they support.

  Several problems with this. 1. For some people the one hero/role is all they can play. Some of them can't play that said hero properly, sure, but moving them to Tank or Support only further demoralises the person. 2. Not all games allow people to contribute in a meaningful way without actually being that skilled at the game. I used to be terrible at shooters until this year where I finally managed to maintain a 2.0 avg K/D in most games (Battlefield 6; I play the LMG class and use the KTS100 LMG). 3. A large number of these games have huge spawn-related problems where you're just bound to keep ending up spawnkilled come what may. That's bad game design, nothing to do with one's skills or ability to follow instructions. 4. You can't force a DPS to play Tank/Support and you can't force a Tank/Support to play DPS.

  THE TANK ERA IN UKRAINE IS OVER. JUST NOT THE WAY COUCH EXPERTS, ADVISORS, AND CONSULTANTS UNDERSTAND IT By Rimas Armaitis, Armed Forces of Ukraine (ZSU) veteran—Lithuanian, sapper, instructor. The New York Times reports that about half of the tank battalion soldiers from Ukraine’s 33rd Mechanized Brigade have already retrained as drone operators. Some recruits are no longer being trained to operate tanks at all. Leopard 2A4s are still maintained, repaired, and used for training, but they are rarely sent on combat missions—mostly during bad weather when drone activity decreases. This does not mean that all tanks will be scrapped tomorrow. It means something much more unpleasant for tank enthusiasts: the tank has lost its status as the primary strike platform. The platform remains, but its role, frequency of use, and cost-to-risk ratio have fundamentally changed. A tank costing millions cannot operate freely on the battlefield because it is under constant surveillance by reconnaissance drones. Once detected, a tank doesn’t even need to be destroyed in a single strike. The first FPV drone might damage a track or optics, the second hits the engine, and the third attacks the crew or the evacuation vehicle. Later, the job is finished off by a heavy bomber drone, artillery, or aerial mining. Even if the tank remains repairable, the combat mission is already ruined, the crew’s lives are at risk, and another expensive machine must be sent to evacuate the vehicle. This is where the economics of war begin—something our couch generals for some reason stubbornly refuse to understand. The key issue isn't whether a tank can theoretically be protected. What matters is how much its protection, logistics, repairs, and trained crew cost compared to how little it costs the enemy to detect, disable, and finish it off. When a chain of drones costing a few hundred or a few thousand euros disables a platform worth millions, we are not facing an emotional debate of "tanks vs. drones," but a catastrophically unfavorable cost-to-result ratio. Of course, some advisor-consultant will now pop up and solemnly declare: "But a drone doesn't hold ground!" Thank you for the breakthrough. An artillery shell doesn't hold ground either. A landmine doesn't control an intersection, and a fighter jet doesn't sit in a trench. Different tools perform different functions. The logic of modern assault is as follows: reconnaissance drones spot positions and movement; FPVs and bomber drones destroy or suppress targets; ground-based robotic systems transport explosives, lay mines, scout, provoke the enemy into revealing firing points, and provide fire support. Only then do the infantry clear, capture, and consolidate the territory—performing what is called "zakrep" on the front lines. Unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) are already being deployed with machine-gun modules, grenade launchers, shaped charges, and fragmentation charges. They handle logistics, evacuation, engineering, and specific assault tasks. They haven't replaced all light armored vehicles yet, but they are already taking over functions where it is better to lose a machine than to lose a machine along with its driver, crew, and squad. Infantry aren't going anywhere. However, a pure infantry assault without aerial reconnaissance, electronic warfare, drones, combat engineering preparation, and fire support is nowadays more simply referred to as a "meat assault." The neat phrase "an infantryman will still have to clear the trench" does not justify the idiotically wasteful decision to send him into that trench first. The role of artillery is also evolving. It remains essential for mass firepower, suppression, area targets, and operating under conditions where drones are restricted. However, single targets have long been handled by FPVs, heavy bomber drones, and mid-strike drones. Deep-strike systems and cheaper cruise missile analogs operate further behind enemy lines. So, drones haven't "replaced everything." They have taken over a huge share of reconnaissance, spotter adjustment, precision destruction, mining, logistics, and even assault roles. As a result, tanks, armored vehicles, artillery, and aviation are used less frequently, more cautiously, and only when their impact justifies the cost and risk. Another argument from the couch experts: "Just turn on electronic warfare and the drones won't fly." Right, of course. Strange that the Ukrainians themselves haven't thought of pressing the magic "turn off drones" button over more than four years of war. Electronic warfare (EW) is essential, but it is not an invisible dome. We now have frequency hopping, relays, elements of autonomous control, machine vision systems, and fiber-optic-guided FPVs. Every line of defense triggers a countermeasure, and technological cycles at the front line sometimes change within weeks. While our consultant spends six months coordinating the final version of a PowerPoint presentation, his "latest" conclusion is already outdated twice over. We are not anti-tank. We are against using tanks according to the doctrine of yesterday's war. For a tank to make a proper comeback to the battlefield, it needs more than just a metal cage welded onto the roof. It requires a complete protection ecosystem: drone detection, electronic warfare, active and passive defense, interceptor drones, dedicated reconnaissance drones, reduced physical and electromagnetic visibility, and integration into a unified intelligence and fire-control network. The tank of the future will likely be unmanned or optionally manned. Because the issue isn't just armor thickness. The issue is sending human beings, along with the tank, into a zone under constant surveillance and targeted fire. This is what we have been talking about for years now. Except our conclusions weren't drawn from watching YouTube or dragging blue and red rectangles across a screen. They emerged from the trenches of the current war. We have seen how the kill zone is shifting, how drones evolved from an auxiliary tool into a primary means of destruction, and how outdated procedures began costing human lives. Yet in Lithuania, a strange qualification system still prevails: if you were at the front yourself, you are "too emotional." If you fought on Facebook for four years, you qualify as a military expert. If you saw the doctrine fail, you are a radical. If you rewrote it three times in PowerPoint, you are an advisor or consultant. So let me repeat this as simply as possible: Tanks haven't disappeared. What has disappeared is the ability to use them the way it was planned ten or twenty years ago. Aerial and ground robotic systems have already taken over a portion of the roles previously held by light armor, artillery, aviation, and infantry. Anyone who fails to grasp this isn't "defending classic warfare"—they are simply preparing for yesterday's war using tomorrow's budget. And if, after all these arguments, someone still only hears "veterans want to get rid of tanks," it's not an additional explanation they need. They lack the ability to read a text longer than the headline of a tank procurement contract.

  @ReviewsPossum Not to mention there is also another problem. WHY IS THE QUEEN THERE? The Queen (who actually shouldn't be on the battlefield unlike some kings), is pretty powerful in chess because of how far she can move. Also if the king dies there is a huge disarray in the kingdom.

  @fourboxesdiner @RealGunLobbyist I totally get wanting to push the issue considering the wins we have been getting, but we (the 2a community) needs to be strategic about it. To use a metaphor, this is a battlefield, and we have to make proper use of the circumstances and tools available to push forward and fight the enemy. If you push too far forward too quickly, you could get ambushed, or not have appropriate supply lines to support it. The losses incurred from one of those mistakes could hinder or make impossible future avenues of attack that could have a substantial benefit for winning. Personally, I want the NFA and GCA done away with, but we currently do not have a workable way of doing so. We want as many metaphorical supplies and munitions available as possible when that particular battle arrives, and to make that happen, we need to set up the groundwork for it.

  @BDEgameowners Its a layering issue if Im not mistaken, since the person who wants to concede came before Abyssal Persecutor, if it hits the battlefield, they cannot concede. They CAN concede with it on the stack as long as they have a flash enabler.

  Drones are the challenge of the present. Two recent stories say it all: 🇸🇰In Slovakia, three people were arrested over an alleged plot to set fire to a drone manufacturing facility. 🇵🇱 In Warsaw, the city is investing around PLN 1 million in a system to detect and identify drones over sensitive areas. One story is about protecting our drones. The other about protecting ourselves from them. Drones are no longer just a battlefield issue. @Poland_MOD @Slovakia_NATO #WeAreNATO

  @Citadel_Base It really is. Meanwhile battlefield 6 was optimized enough that even my graphics card could maintain a stable framerate. Sure this is a smaller game and they dont have the budget for a bespoke engine but I really wish I didnt have to put "****** UE5" as my main issue.

  @SyloveO Sometimes the problem isn’t what we’re saying, but how we’re communicating. Changing the format can change the entire conversation. Listen to understand, not to win. A good conversation should build a bridge, not another battlefield.

  @hrplays7 Battlefield has major audio problems. A tank should make a ton of noise and the screen should shake not fly down the road at 50 mph and pull up behind you with no audio . That right there is why I quit battlefield.

  Rafael engineer Yossi Ben Yakov was analyzing trajectories when Hamas fired the first Qassam in 2001. The core problem was stopping a cheap $800 rocket with precision. Developers created the Tamir interceptor to solve this asymmetric threat. Each Tamir missile costs $50,000 to launch. The system achieves a 90% intercept rate today. This shifted the battlefield calculus entirely. Asymmetric terror lost its primary advantage. Cheap saturation no longer works. Israel secured its skies through technological application 🇮🇱

  @Flakfire WARDOGS. To me it feels like the FPS that will become my primary FPS after BF6 has drained me mentally. The Battlefield Franchise will always have a place in my heart. Problem is BF6 just doesn’t feel like a proper Battlefield. Things would have been better if EA and DICE weren’t trying to entice players from a certain franchise. They have always wanted to nab a good portion of a playerbase from a rival for over a decade. And while maps it was nice to see them introduce larger maps along with doing some tweaks. The whole meat grinder element, silly sweet spot and no flinching mechanic for snipers sucked so much joy out of the game. Plus don’t get me started on auto spotting through scopes and being able to tie hold breath or range finder to fire button. Lastly will I still pop my head into BF6 after WARDOGS enters early access. Since some of my Battlefield chums will be waiting for WARDOGS to come out on Xbox before getting it. BF6 will pinch me for a couple of games. But overall. WATCHDOGS is will eat up a larger portion of my gaming time.
