I agree with Cognito. I had a worse time on the NA server shooting people than the EU server even though I am in NA but I am not sure if this had to do with the settings or just my connection. I think picking the two top options and testing them on each server would be beneficial in having an accurate test between the two.

Thanks everyone who responded. We'll be using the top voted settings on both servers this saturday in order to get a better feel for what we want for the full campaign, then a new poll with just those options will be put up.

EU Server Map 1 will be played at 105% bullet damage.
EU Server Map 2 will be played a default.

NA Server Map 1 will be played at 105% bullet damage.
NA Server Map 2 will be played at default.

Assuming we play more than 2 maps on each server, the generals will get to pick the setting for the third map.

Even though the server settings weren't quite as planned, I'm wondering what people think about the settings we tried(105% and 100%).

Personally, I feel 100% worked best with way fewer instant deaths than 105%. The TTK is higher, but not excessively so.

Felt okay in both scenarios on both servers.

Either would be a step in the right direction for a better experience

At 80% health bolt actions 1 shot at close and medium range, DMRs 1 shot headshot and 2 body shot with the lowest damage DMR, airburst is a 1 shot kill direct hit 2 shot proximity. I didn't feel like testing vehicles vs infantry because...Lawl. I'm not a big fan of the 80% health.

With 105% bullet damage I didn't really notice a huge difference from normal, tested with the guns I mentioned above, but it does buff fast firing weapons, so if you hated being killed by the acw, aek, famas, aws or other cqb weapons you will LOOOOve 105% bullet damage :).

i didnt notice much difference between the bullet damages, but i got killed around corners a lot on the us server.

On another note , i did not really like playing with 80% health. I've never liked hardcore in battlefield

I didn't see much of difference with heath and bullet damage changes.
Maybe if I weren't shot behind every corner ever, I would be able to tell.

Another annoying thing that we noticed while testing the damages is that the double tap for the DMR to kill sounds and registers as 1 bullet but it is two. This is at 80% health.

I think 100% percent will just be the one we're most familiar with, easiest to transition from pub settings to gc (which seemed a problem yday :lol: ) and easiest for people new to GC

It was alot easier to kill infantry from armor with the 105% bullet damage, at least it felt that way.
