Battlefield ESP.... possible?

[cloustron101]

Any of you ever had a point where you, knew exactly what was about to happen to your character in-game, and were able to avoid a trap your subconscious picked up but your conscious mind didn't?

An example, at one point I respawned, and starting running forward, not having seen any hostiles and not having a uav above me to give recon.

I had this sudden strong feeling I was bout to be shot in the back...and sure enough a second later I was shot in the back...I never saw the guy, never heard him so how did I know that was going to happen, right then?

Another time, I was standing near a CP and i had this sudden feeling that an atry strike was coming. I couldn't hear any of the artys going off... but I knew I needed to move.... so I got to cover and a second later shells came raining down on my position....

Anyway ever experience anything...sort of ESP like in that way?
I figure somehow the subconscious picks up on audio and visual clues our conscious minddoesn't notice...kind of give us that gut feeling... just a theory though...

Re: Battlefield ESP.... possible?

Yeah happends to me alot. But I don't think we predict it, we just feel something is wrong...!

And if you feel your gona get shot in the back, FFS turn around...!

I am always looking everywhere not just where the enemy is. Not saying I'm good but you get the idea.

Well the arty thing isn't really esp, I think it's all about feelings, such you only get when you've played the game a long time. Experience.

Re: Battlefield ESP.... possible?

I Often get it with the arty, the other day I was playing with my mate on Wake and all of a sudden I thought.. out of every place on the map (south base was flooded with our players) .. ****, arty is gonna drop, so I yelled to my mate to run 'ARTY RUN' and we both did, 5 seconds later it landed and blew the hell out of the Chinese transcopter that just spawned.

A lot of it is just common knowledge, like don't drive your DPV along any roads on Wake - drive along the side of the land (beach sections) so to avoid AT mines.

Situational awareness...

[cloustron101]

Re: Battlefield ESP.... possible?

Exactly, see I wasn't saying it was actually ESP. I appologise for any confusion on that, I meant its symtoms are *similar* to something like that.

And that arty feeling I got was at South Base as well... it's possible a very very quiet sound from the arty on the beach...gets picked up in our mind, even though we might not be fully aware of it...

Re: Battlefield ESP.... possible?

Yeah happens to me alot and you get to the point were u start acting on everything you feel and see, instead of seeing and hearing.(if you catch my drift) I allways jump around corners and start shooting because i feel someone is there. Tbh 60% of the time i look an idiot lol but when it pulls of and there is no UAV...well you know whats coming up in chat

Re: Battlefield ESP.... possible?

I don't know what it is in your case but normally this happens when you have been playing a really long time and got really good to the point where you know what is going to happen...

Arty strikes are the easiest because you just have to look at the map and think as if you were the enemy commander, where on that map would give you the most kills.. and if a whole group of people is travelling south for example, stay a little behind and be ready to run north... etc.


All the other stuff is situational awareness combined with map experience.

It gets to the point where you know all the commonly travelled paths and most common kits... etc..

I don't even want to mention it, but karkand, i'm sure I can lay out like 3 different VERY common scenarios for karkand.. I hate that map, but it is the most repetitive it will ever get.. which is why I don't play there anymore really.


But yeah.. everything combines together and over time you will get a sort of "ESP" for BF2.

Re: Battlefield ESP.... possible?

I have claymore ESP, i always know when one is comin up behind a wal or something, also i usually can tell when arty is coming and i usually sense when someone is coming, only because when you have the volume crannked and the surround sound on you can hear nearby footsteps, i think afteryou play bf2 for 180 hrs (or how ever many you have) you have seen alot of similarities and you can sense things with ease, coincidence, i think not!!

Re: Battlefield ESP.... possible?

bf2 esp is a a compilation of experience and dejavu (did i spell that right?)

even if you arent in a massive group, you may have just capped a flag and the fact that you made i all the way behind enemy lines wthout any enemy contact and you subconciously remember around when the last enemy arty went off you think......well...im about to get pwnz0r3d from the sky so you move and you're right.
Also youve been on the other side of these situations, im in plenty of situations where im about to spawn and i think, only way for me to hold this flag is to plant clays.

you may have walked around that corner 900 times but this time all the tactical info from the last five minutes (whether it was a sniper at the corner of your eye you didnt CONCIOUSLY see, or its just to quiet in this area with with so many enemies around) that you subconcious has collected says WAIT....TAKE THE LONG WAY.

this happens when youve played for awhile.

welcome to a higher level of playing.
