Yep that kills my interest completely. I wanted a real Battlefield 5. Guess thats a few more years of BF 3/4.
like the narrative will matter at all.
Battlefield is the only major series that comes to mind that does its story stuff even worse then Call of Duty does.
:rejoiceZEPPLINS
bolt action rifles, flamethrowers, horsemen, maces, boats, and biplanes.
now show me some gameplay ffs
I hope they let us fight on top of and inside Zeppelins, like in the ending of The Rocketeer.

I'm sorry to break it to you, but no you can not do this. Think of the Zeppelins as AT-AT's in Battlefront and you'll understand there limits.
Y'all talk all this talk but come release all you niccas gonna be checking out when its filled with modern era BF game bullshit.
Massive incremental progression wall
All the great maps are remakes and behind a $50 season pass
Guaranteed broken online mp for at least a month after launch
but at least the setting is interesting amirite? you niccas are not real and icu
After Bad Company 2, Battlefield 3 and 4 a change of scene is welcome. I didn't need another modern era one right after those ones.

My biggest beef with Battlefield 4 was how much shit was crammed in the game. With this setting there's only so much you can do for weapons and gadgets. If they dial back the ADD styled class/character creation system and amp up the spectacle, its a win win.
Like, you won't need to worry about equipping a barrel, a muzzle flash, a flashlight, what type of magazine, the sight, on 90 different weapons. If this Battlefield is pick up and play, more so than Battlefield and CoD in the past few years, I'll be happy.
Shit, vehicles returning to simple shit in general is already a good thing. If its Bad Company 2 styled customization with a lot more options, that would be the best outcome possible.
Look benji, now matter how hype you get no one is going to ask you if you want to see zeppelins because you're full of hot air. The Bore is a safe space, toku meltdown notwithstanding.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1YqNpkyy5M

At least 2142 hasn't been reduced to DLC for other games like Vietnam. :'(
That video is very accurate, that I can confirm. Once more info comes out more publicly I'll have more to say.
shake up the setting by changing it to the most overplayed setting/era in all of fps. great fucking job

DICE LA is working on more than one game and it's not all Battlefield over there.
The best use of WW1 before this game was a downloadable side scroller from Ubisoft
How is this setting overplayed
At least 2142 hasn't been reduced to DLC for other games like Vietnam. :'(Yeah, it's just a horrible single-player only experience now. (Technically, there's one server. There's also technically one server still up for Brink. Guess which one I actually have managed to play on more than once since 2014.)
Also, the Battlefield 1942/Vietnam/Battlefield 2 servers were axed since they were hosted by Gamespy, which went away. So now there are only a few private servers running and you have to put extra effort into joining some laggy ass server that's hosted in a country far from your own. You can't play old Battlefield easily anymore.2 actually is fairly alright last I saw. 1942 did get beat really hard by the Gamespy turn off though.
There have been way more modern Battlefields than anything else in the series, CoD has been on a 4 year bender of future shit.
Huh. Interesting. I thought DICE-LA was nothing but the "CTE"/fixers now.DICE LA was their way to promote some DICE guys and open another LA studio. And keep a bunch of the Danger Close people. (Ghost Games was a similar weird situation like that but with Criterion.)
I think it would be fair or neat if the commander on the team can steer or move a Zeppelin, with support guns and cannons that can be used by other players. It would make sense if Zeppelins were spawn points like carriers/cruisers were at sea in battlefield 1942.omg yes
Zeppelins being a mobile or aerial spawn point on land maps that don't have sea combat would be good to see.
Back on topic what does everyone think about the cover art featuring someone of color in a prominent role? I think it's great.
Like American casualties were like what, 0.5% of the total?
Fuck that

Necrovision! Fucking hell, what a piece of shit. I couldn't bear that one for long enough to find out what the premise was.
Which part is whitewashed?
Am I missing some part of Polish history where there is coloured people living there? Nope.
Only time anyone showed up it was for war.
Do you know how history lessons looked in communist Poland btw? Nope.

Buy the antitank weapons. This desert belongs to man now, not machine.
Your later options aren't much better. You get a rocket launcher that you must fire prone or on a bipod. But since this is a desert map there is almost no where to bipod up on so you lay on the floor and shoot at it and pray nobody notices you.
You also have some non-sticky dynamite that is far worse than the C4 in Battlefield 4.
And you have anti tank-mines. But I think they disappear when you die currently unlike other battlefield games.
And none of those options are actually any fun.
I just wish they would fix some of the core issues with their engine. Remember when you first tried to vault something in BF3 and it would glitch out and either not vault it or get you stuck in a repeating loop of trying to jump over that thing. How is that still a thing all these years later?The funny thing is that because they became the "Engine House" for all of EA they don't "start over" with new Frostbite versions anymore like they did for BF3 (which is why it dumped a bunch of stuff from BC2 and imo has since run jankier...even when I look at a side-deal, C or D team game like MoH's MP (fork of BC2) vs. Warfighter's MP (fork of BF3)) and then again for BF4. So you'd think they would be fixing these things back up the toolchain, especially since Garden Warfare, Battlefront, etc. are all using it for shooters too, and Mirror's Edge is using it for freaking Mirror's Edges gameplay.
Or that huge lag spike that hits you in the early part of a game where it feels like the game has frozen for a second. That happens every single game at least once in Battlefield 4 and it still happens here.
There are dozens and dozens of things like this that just carry over from game to game and feel janky as fuck. They never fix them. They instead focus on stuff I either don't care about or that gets old after the first time. Where as these bugs all happen every single game over and over again.

How does it compare to Battlefront (which I really liked for like 30ish hours).
when does the beta end?
but I just think that's a level of team play that is beyond your average pub game where everybody is doing their own thing.
There are "hero" classes you can pick up.
The other disconcerting issue (or completely predictable issue I suppose) is how buggy this beta is. After the dumpster fire of a launch that bf4 was, you would think they would want to put out a real clean and polished demo. Instead the consoles versions are bugged beyond belief.
When the French used tanks for the first time on 16 April 1917, during the Nivelle Offensive, they had four times more tanks available. But that would not last long as the offensive was a major failure; the Schneiders were badly deployed and suffered 50% losses from German long-range artillery. The Saint-Chamond tanks, first deployed on 5 May, proved to be so badly designed that they were unable to cross the first line of German trenches.
Most World War I tanks could travel only at about a walking pace at best. Their steel armour could stop small arms fire and fragments from high-explosive artillery shells. However they were vulnerable to a direct hit from artillery and mortar shells. The environment inside was extremely unpleasant; as ventilation was inadequate the atmosphere was heavy with poisonous carbon monoxide from the engine and firing the weapons, fuel and oil vapours from the engine and cordite fumes from the weapons. Temperatures inside could reach 50°C (122°F). Entire crews lost consciousness inside the tanks, or collapsed when again exposed to fresh air.
To counter the danger of bullet splash or fragments knocked off the inside of the hull, the crew wore helmets with goggles and chainmail masks.
also what's the point in letting me see the sunlight reflect off sniper scopes if i can't spot them for everyone, not like my medic butt can outshoot him when he looks at me from ten miles away

I'm down day 1. Had some issues with that beta but I'm hoping they have worked on some of that stuff along with better maps.
EA access starting tomorrow gives you 10 free hours with the game ahead of launch.
Not surprisingly SP is shit and only Entente powers gg EA what a shit product

On a side note I just finished watching Season 1 of the Xfiles for the first time ever, I assume that's where your avatar is from <3. Good shit man

First few seasons of X Files are amazing. I prefer the one off episodes.
I understand the trial is limited vs. the full release at least in maps. I hope also in weapons because there's only like 2 weapons to choose from for Assault. Also - I don't fully understand the customization stuff. There's multiple zoom modifiers but I can't tell if they are just literally zooming in your view? Does this game not have the weapon customizing the previous ones do? It's weird.It says "test out every weapon, vehicle and class" but the explanations of how everything (and what could and couldn't be and how you applied it permanently) unlocked during the beta was weird too.

As without a doubt the longest tenured BF player here
Wish you could still customize your weapons a little more. The lack of variety there is a bit jarring.
Did they? Weird. I liked that stuff. Tinkering with different grips, optics, barrels. That stuff was cool.
To this day I don't know why people hold BC2 in high regard.

How is anyone taking this video as an accurate representation of what the game is?
Elcatro1 hour ago (edited)
1. Use cover 2. Don't spawn on top of another player. (It can be a good thing to do, but its risky) 3. Don't stand out in the open not moving. 4. Look both ways (for enemies) when crossing the street.
I could go on and on, yeah sometimes you get picked off randomly from out of nowhere but the same can happen in literally any FPS in existence.

My number one grudge with this game is the "black washing". There were almost no black people in the larger scale of the war, yet they are the only ones on the british, french and australian team if I remember correctly. Then again it's made by swedish developers, which if you know anything about sweden, you'll know why this game is a SJW wet dream

Turn the can of pringles sideways. Trust me, I'm a professional.
ok? All BFs are fun. Hardly an accomplishment. I mean I guess, but I find it hard to be frustrated when 3,4, and now 1 are so much better than BC2. Battlefield 3's DLC maps were incredible. 4 had good base maps with pretty much every DLC pack save the navy one being good. So far for one only Suez sucks. Which is the most BC2 like map.To this day I don't know why people hold BC2 in high regard.

Did they make the hip-fire not laser accurate? You can put the Support with Gas Grenades into the mask, and just laser PEWPEWPEWPEWPEWPEW people to death while chucking the gas grenades in the beta. It was very very Battlefront-y IMO. It kinda made the gunplay feel "off" from BF3/4 for me. There's folks that say it's a Battlefront mod, and while I don't 100% agree, I can agree that gameplay-wise it does feel kinda Battlefront-y and not Battlefield-y.
Game is very fun. It also looks freaking great which normally I'm not a graphics nerd but even on xbox, the game is beautiful. On a high end PC it would be insane.

The Teams at EA/DICE
I think the campaign is legit good. Certainly by Battlefield standards. I like that just about every mission is open world. I like that most of the missions provide a stealth option or a gun blazing option. I like that its 5 or 6 separate mini-campaigns so the story can't get extended stupid and just about when you are tired of one campaign it ends.
I think the British Tank campaign and the Italian campaign are the two standouts. Those are legit COD good levels but better in a sense because they are more open.
As far as the mp I think they hit a nice sweet spot of making a really addictive but accessible battlefield game. This will go down as one of the really fun ones.
Well props to you for knowing how to fly in Battlefield.
I've been trying since Battlefield 2 on PC and still don't get it, I almost got it in Battlefront, but that's only almost.
