Elite Pickups

Unlockables

There are three Elite Class Pickups to find which will give you bonus abilities and unlock new weapons. Elite classes are awesome and should not sneered at. You get new weapons and extra damage resistance so always get them if you see them become available.

In order to find them, checkout your map, they are indicated on there when you get near to an elite class and there is also an audible prompt 'A xxx kit has been spotted nearby'.

The elite classes are:

  • Flame Trooper
  • Sentry
  • Tank Hunter

Zeppelin Glitch

Glitches

After the zeppelin is destroyed, after simply falling out of the sky it turns into a whirlwind of fire. Checkout the video below (note this may get fixed in an upcoming release).

Mirror's Edge Catalyst

Easter Eggs

During the opening cutscene of the Through Mud And Blood you can see the word Faith marked in white inside the tank. This referrs to Mirror's Edge: Catalyst, which is another game by the same developer, DICE. Mirror's Edge: Catalyst starred Faith Connors, a parkour expert that helps expose corruption in a futuristic city.

Kolibri Pistol

Easter Eggs

Reach rank 10 in multiplayer to unlock the Kolibri and purchase for 150 warbonds.

The 2mm Kolibri was a real weapon from the WW1 era. Designed by a watchmaker, the weapon was all but useless in combat but it was memorable due to it's amazingly tiny size.

Although a weak weapon to bring to fight, the Kolibri Pistol has both a novelty and taunt factor. Killing an enemy soldier and seeing the Kolibri appear in the kill log is worth the bragging rights.

Headphones and Morse Code

Easter Eggs

You'll find black 'headphones' lying on top of rubble, pillars and other stationary objects, you can pick these up and upon doing so hear a little 'click', when you take them to telegraph machines they play a small piece of Morse Code.

There are only one pair per game, they only appear once per game and you can only see them if you are close by (within 5m).

Only the player carrying them can hear the telegraph machine.

What this means is still a mystery....

Tips for Ranking Quickly

Hints

Here are some tips for ranking up faster in BF1 Multiplayer.

Play in a communicative squad, one where all teammates talk to each other.

Quickmatch Domination racks up points faster than other game modes.

Only seek out the objective (to capture bases) and only take on enemies that stand in your way of that objective.

Following the enemy around the map re-taking bases that they just captured is a great way to progress.

A squad leader that issues useful attack comments will get your team more points, e.g. if your squad lead marks a base for capture in Domination you will get an extra 100 points for following his commands and an 'order followed' bonus (upto 80 extra points).

A squad can separate into two groups. The squad leader can issue commands to attack two bases at different times, alternating between bases, if you are successful at capturing one of the bases you will get an extra 100 points even though you never captured the other base. 

When issuing these orders the squad leader squad leader should always pay attention to all bases. If a base is about to be captured, he should make sure to change the attack orders quickly to target that base so everyone on the team gets extra points, even if they are not at that base. Even when dead and having no team mates at the base, you will still get 100 points for capturing it if the squad leader has attack orders on it.

A good squad sticks together and has a varied loadout, for example 2 medics and 2 support players.

Quickmatch Domination has no vehicles, so assault units are not too useful and there is a lot of running around trying (capturing bases) so that rules out the usefulness of the sniper too.

Squads that stick together will spawn near each other and this will assist with spotting enemies, suppressing and healing and resupply of team members will also give you more points.
