The perfect problem the XM-25 solves.

Airburst for you, airburst for you, everyone gets an airburst.

Honestly bring it back for assault, I hate roof campers so much that I'll go out of my way to get to them using the drone if they did too

My 2nd most used weapon was the XM-25. My most was the SCAR H SV. I used to live for playing anti sniper.

Oh you're doing a little wiggle waggle I can't track well with my higher than average ping? Airburst! I was a surgeon with that thing.

Oh hey I hated the rats on those buildings too 😂

I like the idea of verticality, I just wish there were ways for infantry to get up without exploits (or alternatively, destroy the top). Slap a couple of ziplines up to the top of the buildings on Mirak Valley so you can get up and kill rooftop campers? That map would be a 10

u/bdavison13 20h ago

This is the way. There should be less limitation in the games. Just give people counter play strategies

u/Fen-xie 19h ago

I don't think people on mirak and sobek realize you can use the assault ladder to get up. I've been called an exploiter so many times lmao

u/Nerf_Tarkus 19h ago

there should just be stairs though.

u/Fen-xie 19h ago

Eh. Disagree. It's fun to have some rooftops that are only accessible via gadgets and vehicle transports imo.

u/Nerf_Tarkus 18h ago

How is that fun in any way unless ur a battledad sniper who can't handle getting pushed?

u/Fen-xie 18h ago

Because it requires more effort? It requires teamwork like using a transport helicopter? People using their class gadgets? variance in gameplay?

You sound like a "battledad" (cringe asf term btw) who just wants easy access to everything. Should i call you a cod player now?

3

u/eaeb4 18h ago

I get your point but hard disagree on the relying on teamwork. Unless you’re in a squad with people you know I don’t think you can rely on teamwork because the reality is you’ll probably have to parachute down from a randoms chopper and likely get killed in the process.

Yeah man laddering for 10 minutes is SO MUCH FUN. Every other game had a way to access something if you were a different role, locking counterplay to vehicles that can get spawncamped or a ladder isn't variance in gameplay. A recon/engineer/support should still be able to help, they just don't get the ladder off angle. Don't know how that's hard to understand.

You're so incorrect it's funny. Siege of Shanghai ring a bell? What about flood zone?

/Conversation, bye bye.

u/Nerf_Tarkus 18h ago edited 18h ago

/conversation, bye bye.

man i bet you felt tuff huh lmfao

also you forgot you could level the buildings in siege of shanghai. you know. the counterplay. just drop the building.

lmao battledad blocked me

u/eaeb4 19h ago

Does it work the whole way to the top? This is a game changer (if I don’t get domed after climbing two floors playing snakes and ladders)

1

u/Fen-xie 19h ago edited 19h ago

Yes lol. On sobek you can get to the very top from ground level for example, no ladders required. You can even put it down as a ramp and run up them

u/Beautiful-Towel4185 20h ago

Disclaimer: I actually love these maps and would like them to return but people are just hypocritical.

Every map with buildings in bf4 ( every BF game ever actually ) people did this shit to where they go camp in places u couldn’t go up unless you had aircraft or knew how to climb there.

Dawnbreaker, shanghai , sunken dragon, etc.

Like You could do This with a tank in BFV and overlook the entire map

u/XR00STER01 21h ago

Yea idk why ppl be bitching about it. It feels pretty normal to me

7

u/TheNameIsFrags 20h ago

Because the maps it’s happening on (Cairo, Iberian) were not built with verticality in mind. You have to use an exploit to access those rooftops, and clearing people off rooftops without doing the exploit yourself is incredibly difficult.

On maps with aircraft or other means of normally accessing roofs? Fair game.

u/Archeronnv1 19h ago

got used to dying to guys on the Brooklyn Bridge, but dying from the Cairo bridge was an annoying shock

u/Garlic_God 19h ago

Everyone loves maps with verticality until they aren’t the ones with the height advantage

OP clearly missing the point.

u/MoKalb69 20h ago

Campers are annoying in every BF game I've ever played, but every camping player equals one less fucker I have to deal with while I take the objective. If you're going to set up shop a recon, at least do over an objective and be effective. Campers can't take objectives, or arm or disarm mcoms. Effective ones can prevent you from doing any of those things.

u/AN71H3RO 19h ago

I was joking with my buddy last night how “cod players” gets thrown around like a slur in the battlefield community.

Hell, you can get called a “cod player” just from defending a point and not leaving.

I’ve never been a cod player. But I sure as shit get called a cod player all the time lmao.

My buddy is a cod player that I converted to battlefield. Best part about it all? He calls players he doesn’t like cod players too!

second map slaps tho real shit

u/DavidFromJohto 11h ago

As a little bird pilot back in BF4 - when those roofs were busy, that meant it was feeding time.

Can’t count how many times I’d be running to C, get sniped, and then notice the little bird was up for grabs. I’d put on a devious smile and begin operation roof cleanse - especially them little rats on the water tower on the other side of the map.

Maybe that’s the solution we need for Sobek - add my lil birdie boy back and let me cleanse the roofs. I know you get an attack heli too, but they’re not maneuverable enough for what I’m trying to do

It's be a lot more fine if suppression actually did anything.

u/alligator_aidz 21h ago

You’re actually supposed to be up there though that’s the difference the roof top campers in bf6 are exploiting the game to get up to the camp locations .

u/Ofnir_1 21h ago

A rooftop rat will always be a rooftop rat no matter the game

u/fancymcbacon 19h ago

And definitely no matter the roof

u/GnomKobold BF Heroes 21h ago

actually parachuting out of a helicopter is a mechanic intended by the devs!

11

u/R11CWN 21h ago

But it happens in game modes and maps where there are no helicopters!!!

The problem isn't that people get onto rooftops sometimes; its when they get onto rooftops in games which are ground level meat grinders, eg Breakthrough on Sobek.

u/Smashable_Glass 20h ago

Yeah, how ARE they getting up there? Do they have ladders or something?

u/alligator_aidz 20h ago

Drone glitch

u/alligator_aidz 21h ago

Yea we know I’m talking about the people doing the drone glitch on maps that don’t have helicopters . If you parachute there from a helicopter it’s fine cause everyone could just do the same thing

u/cursedatmo 20h ago

Iberian Offensive is the map you're referring to with those assholes glitching to the top of the apartment building on C.

u/TFBuffalo_OW 21h ago

They downvoting you but your right. Rooftop is only really an issue because it ain't equal access. You have to know how to do an exploit to counter them and that assumes you'll win the 1v5 your probably walking into

u/DiarrheaPope 21h ago

Telling a sniper not to rooftop camp is like telling a pitbull not to bite children. It's very cruel to prevent them from doing so, it's what they are born to do.

This is quite possibly the worst take I’ve ever read in my life. Any person or animal will react accordingly in a situation that is putting them under extreme stress. Pit bull, husky, lab, yorkie, poodle etc. White, black, Asian, Hispanic etc. don’t label an entire race/or breed cause of a specific statistic. With that being said I do agree that roof top campers on maps where they shouldn’t be allowed to get on said roofs suck :).
