I've struggling actually seeing enemy's, it's been so long since I've played a BF game and played one on console that I can barely break even on k:d. I guess I need to play more... but I am liking the way the game looks. What's the app you speak of?
K/D is generally much less important in this game, unless you are playing TDM. It is all about the score/min and skill ranking (which will be in the app). These games are objective based, if you die 40 times with 30 kills, but end up pretty high in the end game rankings for defending objectives and being a good teammate with heals/resupplies or whatever, you did much better than being 30 kills with 5 deaths, but only like 2000 points.
The app is the Battlefield Companion app. Go to career, tap BF1, then detailed stats, and you can see all your stats. Career is also where you go to manage loadouts.
ETA: Also, if you're really into tracking stats, you can go to battlefieldtracker.com to get rankings and all that jazz. Very similar to Destiny Tracker.
Just checked, and apparently I'm #72 in the world in healing done. Bring me your tired, your sick

Is there a way to increase chance of getting a Battlepack? (having highest score, most revives per round?)
or is it random?
From everything i've seen, it is completely random. I had four games in a row last night where I finished first on my team with over 2.5 k/d and didn't get a battlepack after any of the games. Got one after a game where I had like a .5 k/d and was middle of the pack points wise.

I've been working people with a sniper without a scope, trench glasses, and flare.
I killed 3 people with one flare when I shot it into a pillbox :profit:

Well done
That is definitely one of the more satisfying ways to get a kill. Flare + gas grenade + pillbox = pandemonium

I'm only at 467 score per minute though :/ atleast I'm rolling a 1.38 K/D.

That's not bad at all IMO especially if you've been running sniper a lot and I think I remember you saying you don't play a lot of FPS's anyways. If you're playing conquest or operations a good bit, that's a good score. I'm at 522 with 1.7 k/d. I'm only 54% win though right now, which i'm more concerned about.

Im at a 491 score/min playing mainly Conquest but only winning 47% of the time. Am I just unlucky with teammates?

Most likely
I don't know what it was about last night, but it seemed like the quality of people playing dropped dramatically. It was a hard shift. Up until yesterday, for the most part people played the objective pretty well, diversified classes, etc. Last night, all I got were snipers on my team. I played a game where 3/4 full squads were all snipers and all just stayed together. It was pure cancer. We were attacking. It was impossible to take points.

the handguns for whatever reason seem really underwhelming. anything past 10m and the damage drops significantly.
Have you ever shot a WWI pistol??

I haven't played all week and I miss this game. I'll definitely be playing this weekend.

I switch teams like it's my job when things like this are happening. Call me what you want, but I hate to lose due to shitty randos

Oh I do too if i can when it is that bad. I generally just look to see if they are playing the objective. If I see a big group all sniping, nowhere near the objective, I'll switch. If you like the sniper class, great, but you can still help with the objective. I'll stick around if they are actually trying. If they are just trying to pad their K/D spread, i'm gone. If you're at the very back of the map, you really aren't going to be doing much.
The particular game I'm talking about last night, I kid you not there were 10 snipers, all on top of this same small boulder/ridge sniping. One normal grenade would have killed all 10 easily.

Is the only way to get Lawrence of Arabia gun is if you bought the deluxe edition or whatever? Just got to level 10 thinking I would be able to get it 
Posted on 10/28/16 at 3:20 pm to 5 Deep
I believe so. You can check the store and see if they sell it separately, but I don't think they gun is actually any different than the SMLE infantry, just a different name and skin.

Anyone playing tonight? Looking for squad.

The difference between the SMLE and the LoA is the sweet spot. I believe that is the case with all the sniper rifles. They depend on how far from your targets you plan on setting up shop. LoA is stronger I believe up closer where SMLE is stronger from a greater distance.

The snipers (scouts) are SUPPOSED to spot enemies. Otherwise they are hard to spot (they are wearing neutral color camo)
But alas, they do not. They just fire away

U mad, bro?
Posted on 10/29/16 at 5:38 pm to JimMorrison
he doesn't seem mad to me. he's just reiterating the well known fact that snipers are generally useless in objective based first person shoots.
