if they learned anything from 2042 they will
I hope they give classes certain weapons again. Helped make each class for distinctive
id like assault rifles to be the universal weapon, would make sense it being the standard issue weapon for most militaries, SMG for medic, Sniper for Scout, LMG for support, not to sure what engineer would get though
Even with no battlefield, I have a feeling after BO6 COD is in a hole it cannot dig itself out
Shotty / PDW for engineer
i was thinking shotgun but they dont tend to make that many shotguns so feel theyd be lacking but PDW/ carbine would be good
Im hoping for more Infantry Fighting Vehicles(but not just bradley)Im talking about vehicles from other countries like the German Puma or Lynx,Swedish CV90 etc.
I'd love some more mobile and stationary artillery. Like let me sit far from a point and just rain shells
they had the tech in bfv to be able to move artillery so its not like it isn't out of the realm of possibilities
Well, if we`re talking about raining shells, they could do artilery vehicles
theyd have to change the playable space you could use them in as i don't want a repeat of bf4 where they sit at the back of the map where you cant reach them
100% agree
Something like Himars or M270 could be good aswell
Yeah himars is a classic
I want the isis toyota bmp thing
Just hoping they take constructive criticism on board and make good changes.
I just want the game to be complete.
10-12 maps.
50+ guns
Teams specific vehicles.
Military authenticity.
That to hard to ask for ?
This reminds me of that tuk tuk with maching gun
40 maps*
Definetly more than 12 maps
Im expecting around 20 at launch
We wish brother.
Imagine if mmg's return
Fr
8-10 maps for launch, with 3 each season, two at the start and 1 mid season, and 4-5 weapons each season
100 maps, 100 guns, 100 specialists minimum
Specialists?
ewwwwww
Nahhh
Hell naw
operators
Bro i think you opened the wrong discord server
Do you guys think medic will play the support role?
COD is the other way
oh ya i forgot we need sbmm too
Let`s not get there shall we?
im all for server balancing and being moved to opposite team but no SBMM
Hey guys. They said they will periodically update us on the progress of the playtests. You think it will be just patch notes or that we'll see actual images/videos of the playtests to some degree?
If i dont get operators and sbmm im uninstalling
there definitely wont be leaks 
Official snippets from the devs.
they did say in the LAB announcement that they'd up date on progress for those not in the playtests
How many people will they chose anyway?
A few thousands at first
they've not said how many people yet
Will it be random
they are doing EU and NA i would think 2000 per area
Or based on experience based on looking at their profile
Or based on the survey we completed?
They should be indefferent I think
It`s random anyway
Maybe,i couldn't complete the survey even tho i joined
But yeah ur right
It's random
Nooo, no battlefield should settle for 8 maps. 10-12 at launch is stamdard
I want Frontlines on realese lmao
when you say metro, do you mean bf3 version or BFV version ?
i may have a different perspective to u, but after playing other games like the finals, ive realised how much of a difference "good quality maps" can make. if they make like 12 and like 4 of them are meh and 2 of them suck ass, that's just 6 of them that are good. if they make 8 really well planned ones, there may be 1 thats meh, but hopefully none that are terrible
i really really respect quality over quantity after playing the finals
BF 3 Metro
whats there to like seriously
Just heard playtest otw damn
Did BF V have a metro map?
ye
Oh
yu eah dlc
Been a while since i`ve played it so yea, i forgor
well it was a reimaging of metro, had outside areas as well as the spawn points for each factions
i didnt find that map as fun, but it was good quality objectively
Shame that BfV never had eastern front
type 51 shined hard in that map (or whatever that smg was)
honestly BFV got the pacific update and the game was good (IMO) then they cut support, seems to be the way with them, get the game in a decent spot then cancel for the next game in the series and rinse and repeat
BfV had such potential
Isnt BFV the only game they abandonned
im so lost, am i waiting for an email or something. last thing i want is to figure out i didnt fill something out correctly.
Tehnicly 2042 was abandoned since the begining lmao
no confirmation mail
im surprised that 2042 is still getting updates and adding portal content to the main mode, i thought after they said no more seasons that was going to be it and that they'd only add skins for a quick cash flow
they continued updating bf2042 long enough tho
They said no more new content
for what it is
They had some things prepared in advance or leftovers anyway
They added IFV's like Bradley and BMP now lmao
im still waiting for the M98B sniper to be added, pretty sure it was season 1 when they spoke about portal weapons they showed it off in promotional art
In all out warfare yeah
Now I remember just how much i hate non faction locked vehicles
I hope for more tanks aswell
Challenger pleaaaaase
Abrams,Leopard,Challenger etc.
The last 4 seasons of 2042 were a lot of fun.. it had the basics of a BF game at that point
Bf3 Grand bazaar and sciene crossing 💜💜
WE need to know what faction it`s gonna be to know what to expect of the vehicles
nato leak is true it seems
I expect to be sth like NATO vs Russia or sth
Well as far as I know it's NATO against russian PMC
i definitely saw brits in the gameolay
Even tho it's not confirmed
Some people say its rumored about PMC vs NATO but we have no official idea
IF so, then yea, i think we can expect some variations to the vehicles
NATO vs Coalition i'd imagine or theyd go PMC route
The PMC could be russians,chinese etc
That too
North Korea too
Russians have such as T72 B3,T90M,T14 Armata and such
give me a challenger tank and Warrior infantry fighting vehicle please and thankyou
Maybe yeah hahaha
T14 i find boring
I hope BMPs are going to be the base IFV
Isn`t Terminator an upgraded BMP3?
I disliked BTRs
Terminator is basicly x2 30mm guns mounted on a T72 chasis
Oh ye
With kornet atgms on the side
If it`s NATO, i wonder if they could include Japan and South Korea weapons too
Prob not but it's possible
bf3 audio mix needs to come back
would be cool as its weapons i wouldn't be familiar with
Ik, thats why i want them
Haha true
Also the RedBack
Australia also has RedBack
Came from the S. Korea 
Someone please tell the Devs for me that the next Battlefield game needs more BANGER music LIKE THEY HAD IN BATTLEFIELD V!!!
they should just go back to country vs country
I need music to be BF3/4 Level of bangerness
Call ins like the Storm Shadow missile
Tomahawk inbound to your position
Im all for Nato just because of more vehicles and guns lmao
They need more weather more rain more snow more fire more music!!!!! More tornados more snow storms!!!
Nato being the faction opens for more content and freedom for the devs
Exactly
you would get the same thing if they just added more countries...
Adding more countries makes up NATO 
Yeah but it's more logical and realistic if it was NATO
Your worried about factions? This game is doomed....
Western countries do not fight each other these days
worried is crazy
They fighting a proxy war against russia and such
every season could add a new country with there weapons and a vehicle or two
and its battlefield not real life
NATO is stupid...
Battlefield is based on real lfe
sort of
Not sort of, it IS
im hoping they've worked on the engine and fixed the mouse issue
No..... geez.... 😒
NATO Wave incoming
Bruh
Bruh urself...
in bf4 they added things that aree concepts or that do not exist in real life sure they keep things similar depending on the year
I'm not gonna buy the next battlefield game just because you can fight or be in NATO... that's stupid....
Then why are you here
What?💀
To keep ppl like you from ruining the game before it's even out
I don`t recall being a dev
Man it's just opinions
Whats the diffrence with there being 5 countries with diffrent vehicels or one faction with them all
"You can fight NATO in the new battlefield!? Sh*t I'm in!" Nobody is gonna say that bro...
country is just better than nato it provides more than just lumping it all one faction and besdies that it would be more fun to do USA vs UK or RUSvs CN etc... rather than just nato vs russia or china
Thank god...
Brother, NATO wasn`t the main point of the discution
You could argue the same for USA and Russia
not saying was just making my point
Opinion taken on board, you do not want Nato, moving on.
You can fight germany and america shit im in its the same thing
In Battlefield V they have ALL different countries... historically of course... I like that...
It`s like 4 countries cuz there were 2 fronts?
UK and USA still were the same faction
Its normal for NATO to fight russians because they are enemies in a "Proxy" Way
Yeah but... kinda feels shallow... I mean you could have Chinese fighting Russians... YOU DONTNKNOW WHATS GONNA HAPPEN ITS CHAos Out there BRUH...
North Korea and Iran would be cool too
Man..
Idk

Everybody calm down lmao🤣
All thr vehicels are most likey gonna be functionaly the same so i dont see the diffrence
thats the whole point of custom servers you can change the sides to whatevedr u want but if its only 2 options then ur stuck
I think it would be better than just.... you fight with or against NATO... and that's the whole game lol
True cuz of the balancing
this guys confused
99.99% of players when the next BF arrives
"I dont give a shit what the factions are as long as the maps and gunplay is good"
This^^^
NATO or some form of Multi-country alliance vs a PMC (Also multi-national) makes the most sense as its better for weapon, vehicle and gear expansion. As well as the cosmetic side of things.
Well it's true
This.
Yeah as I said the only reason i want NATO is cuz fo more vehicles,nothing else
Im tired of only having one tank such as the abrams
But it's fine as long as the new Bf is good
Wouldn't one alliance mean less individual stuff?
No
Nope
.... how so?
Every Nato county has it's own millitary arsenal
Okay so... XD isn't that the same thing as individual countries?
Germans Leopard,americans abrams,Brits Challenger,French Leclerc
Every country has their own stuff, the only thing thats the same is the ammo caliber
Yeah pretty much it is
if it was country vs country you would get each country varrient of said vehicle. if you just pick whatever variant tank i think just looks worse. i think each team should be uniformed for said country
All NATO countries have a a weapon calibre standard
🤦♂️
It could be map specific
Such as the 5.56×49NATO standard ammunition
imagine battlefield labs going to be WEB3 oh boiii
either way they are going to make the ammo and such pretty much universal its not arma ....
Or 120mm barel for MBT's
Idk, i feel like we`re talking to walls atp
I just love battlefield that's all I know :3
Yeah
Let's just drop the NATO thing
All vehicles will be the same anyway
Balancing and stuff you know
Would be cool to see what vehicles the PMC will have
I think is skipped the Battlefield Labs sign up queue? Idk tho. Cos I clicked on the battlefield labs link and it just dropped me right to the questions
Doubt they will add China. Or they will get the game banned in China again
naice
No more PMC? when did we last have PMCs?
Guess we won’t be getting the J-20 or J-36
Oh that's awesome. Really hope I get to try. But it's will LITERALLY be 1 in a million
Techincly in 2042
i don't know why you'd want to limit your weapon arsenal by doing single faction vs single faction, having a coalition would allow others to use what they want to during the match and not feel limited, imagine the game ships with 50 weapons you can use but damn i got this faction and dont like there weapons and i can only use 10 /50
BF2042 was still US vs RU
True but it was just mercenaries fighting for their interests
exactly a comment earlier was saying they want faction based fights
I just want a fun game man (I need first person takedown to make me happy)
I heard it was NATO vs PMC's
That’s what I heard too
I'd quite like it if the takedown involved stealing the tags but I wint be fussed if they dont
I can’t really remember any crazy out there skins in 2042 besides maybe that Santa skin
Umm.. shirtless meth head dude was terrible
bring back the skill ceiling for vehicles and battlelog
I only don't remember that one
Make bfv great again
where can I download?
A santa skin that never released lol
Yeah community complained it out of existence
Poor Santa 🎅🏻
ive not seen any official reports on settings but lots of news outlets saying nato vs large private army for the campaign
I'll see if I can find it.. was bad. haha.. most were fine and I hope some form of that comes back.. but within reason
Santa clause borris' shrodinger
I think it turned more up hill around about the time they released they cool future military suit for grapple hook guy. I think it was only for pre-order ppl tho
mackay Apex predator (dinosaur skin)
Also idk what's wrong with my name in here? It's not offensive or anything it was literally Mt gamertag
*my
Yessss, tytyty
mackay has the wort immersion braking skins, he's got a space outfit aswell
Now, the base skin system was great! You can show off your advancement for the class that way... just keep them simple
what was ur old name
While I would use the red versions of the guns.. let's leave that out. They start to look like paintball guns then. haha
It should have been EastyF56. But idk if it's because of my #
That was ImJustBetter
Hello just wondering if the labs beta is available on console or just pc?
Both
Both
Ok thanks
See FAQ for more info: https://www.ea.com/games/battlefield/faq
fields of battles
i didnt get the email yet and i signed up more than 24 hours ago
not sure i will get one
oh yessir where’s the pre order button amirite ?!
trailer looked sickk
No
Big Levelutions please 🥺
I hope this brings back battlefield I have high hopes for this one
Indeed it did 🔥
they stole the destruction from the finals 😠
there is a dude crouch running in the first second
interesting
Bring back bf3 feeling
U just gotta wait 😭
no one got the email
The sites code is incorrect which is causing the registrations not to go through.
I wonder if they are bringing back the campaigns
what if they have forgotten about us already 😭
Criterion and Motive are making the campaign
we died on the battlefield
I can buy to have skins if they stick to the theme,
good
loll ye
finals but better cuz its bf
BF wont have the same destruction as Finals.
Crumbly
I dont think fully server sided destruction is possible with large player counts. (thats why player numbers are so low in Finals modes)
Yo all
bad company devs made the destruction in the finals
the finals, wasnt that made by former dice dudes?
someone said some of the people that did destruction stuff for dice went to whatever company that make the finals
bad company devs responsible for the destruction did
they made their own studio away from EA which made the finals
ah i see
sad that they all left
i only recognized a single guy at DICE in that 5 minute video they made
yeah def, simulating server sided destruction over 64 players and a large map is not feasible nor something that would be that worth it
eh the way EA was turning into at the time, I don’t blame them
i mean hey im happy whatever happened, the finals is a great gmae
i only recognized david sirland, rest of the guys at dice that I used to recognize and liked all gone 😦
if that canon event didnt happen, we wuoldnt have arc raiders
How long have you guys been playing battlefield?
since bad company 1
since bf3
Same
My favorite favorite battlefield's were b1 bf3 and 4
I liked
Bf1*
I just hope this new battlefield will be good i actually have high hopes for it
So do i
Hopefully with them expanding Playtesting, it will be better.
I look forward to eventually and hopefully being picked. I would love to participate. I love Battlefield, it was my go to whenever COD pissed me off xD
It's gon be fire
Well lets all work together and make this game amazing guys.
Idc if anyone says otherwise
its a rumour but they did not say for or against yet afaik
if u:
- have a supporting spec'd rig
- good internet
- live in US/CA/UK/SWE
- did the survey right
u should have a good chance of getting in
Cause i played...Fire Storm i think it was called in BF5 i believve
firestorm was lit hands down one of the most immersive shit ever
See i didnt get to play it much
it started off great, then got 0 good updates
I was too busy playing Warzone xD
oh lol
i played ~50 hours of firestorm before it kinda died and every game had like 10 people only
Wow
Do we know if this Battlefield will be using the Frostbite engine or something else?
10 people, thats crazy.
ill tell u man, that gamemode is FIRE
Yes, it will most likely be an updated Frostbite
if they make firestorm 2, ill actually play it a lot! and i dont even enjoy BRs anymore lol
yeah true
Ok sweet, thats what I assumed but wasnt sure if I missed some kind of news lol
Thanks for the answer!
MOST of EA's games I believe are built on the Frostbite engine
Or an updated verison of it.
It is using Frostbite: https://x.com/FrostbiteEngine/status/1886501685196984623
The Frostbite team works closely with Battlefield Studios on the engine powering #Battlefield, so we’re excited to see the debut of the most ambitious community collaboration yet! Enlist in BF Labs today for a chance to help shape the future of Battlefield with us 🤝
Yeah i figured.
They have never used any other engine lol
Battlefield has always been Frostbite
I dont see them getting rid of it.
Yea I believe they made it a priority for a while but read a little ago that the company as a whole wasnt going to prioritize other teams to use it. Wasnt sure if that encompassed BF as well
Do we know when playtests will start to roll out?
praying that the mouse issue is fixed from 2042
just says coming weeks
Playtests will probably started within the month, mabybe.
Anyone else been playing since the BF2 PC days? That game was special for the time.
I hope if there is a BR, they let us test it.
I have been playing since Bad Company 2
I participated in the Beta.
But how many would even be selected??
I remember because it was around Modern Warfare 2 coming out
BF2, dad decided to slot the disk in my PC tray and said "enjoy". Never looked back since
I would assume they are going to select a small number at first.
BC2 was a damn good time but my heart is always gonna be for BF Vietname and 2142
this is why their game has so many bugs
I played the crap out of it.
You can't expect every bug to be pin pointed right off.
It happens.
Same! The mods for it were great as well. Damn I miss how much PC game modding thrived back then with its total conversion mods
Thats why they are doing playtesting with the community
I mean 2042 had extreme bugs
Who remembers AIX mod for BF2?
I played the Beta, didnt like it.
Only have about 20 hours in 2042, pretty sure 10 of that was just trying to get into matches to even try it on launch
this engine is INSANE
I think for me
Also had issues with the game launching and then never starting the main menu lol
I played it when it was free via Gamepass, it was too buggy to buy
man if they don’t have the movement from V it’s an automatic L for me
BC2 is when i had the msot time played
and BF4
I had over 2500 hours between both xD
in the trailer thingy, it does look like one dude is crouch running
i want to see how far they can push technology with the new engine
yeah but the POV of the player has that weird goofy run from 2042
anyone who knows anything about game development know how hard it would be to port movement and animations?
Dont forget
i didnt play 2042 tbh
is this ‘placeholder’ thing copium
valid
i tried it for EA play for the 10 hour trial and never played again
I just hope someone doesn't ruin it for us and violate the NDA......
probably same lol. No idea what my total is in battlefield as a whole. Been playing since BF1942 came out. El Alamein was the best map entirely cause the flying fortress lol
You know someone is going too.
Its gonna be someone looking for clout. The real question is how aggressive EA will be with their enforcement of the NDA.
Can range from bans to lawsuit lol
I hope really aggressive.
I've done QA in games before and those NDA's are no joke
I see some stupid youtuber or twitch streamer violating it for views
I did a lot of QA testing for Medal of Honor 2010 and Warfighter.
i wanna get ijnto the play tests just so that i can help make battle field good again.
OOF I forgot about those games lol
I will never forget
Amazing potential, but it was ruined.
Loved the story lines though.
But the MP, meh.
as is tradition
remember guys a game engine is merely a support tool, the brush quality doesn't define an artist, the artist's skills and ability to art defines them
don't get hyped for "new frostbyte yay" or frown on "aw old frostbyte"
agreed, but the familiarity with a tool is more important
But that comes down to an individual basis and how much they may have changed the engine and its workflow
yeah ofc, ur right
an engine is more of a canvas, poor quality can rip and tear (game bugs)
we'll be fine
I think that was one of the issues with 2042 was that after all the engine upgrades they didnt have much time to actual work with it. Assuming my memory of the news around it is corect
So do i.
yeah i think so
Yea I'm gonna be optimistic since hopefully they were more cautious with that balance of engine changes and training the designers lol
Is there a video how to get the beta on xbox? I'm still waiting for my email though
What Beta?
its not a beta like cod
There is no beta lol.
its just playtests
Its playtesting
its gunna happen later and is just testing, not the full game
No invites have gone out yet, we're all waiting. They said invites should go with within the coming weeks
And as others have said, we're expecting a much rougher, earlier state of the game. I'm 100% expecting grey or green or pink boxes lol
Ok thanks
Idk about that. Some things may be glitchy, but i think things will be more built then that lol.
I think somewhere they said it's in pre-alpha. So very early.
Yeah its Pre-alpha
But most of the main systems and such are done, so its not gonna be crazy lol
let be real they are probably calling it pre alpha to reduce peoples expectations during playtests
For sure, but I kind of hope they have those rougher edges. A hill I'll die on is that gaming needs to see just how rough a game is in alpha and pre-alpha
Oh i get it lol
Pre Alpha is a very rough cut of the game.
I could be wrong and there are boxes all over just like you said, but from the playtests ive done, the game is typically pretty done in Pre-Alpha
i played the finals alpha
that was a fun one, it was definitely a "game" but it was quite feature-less
how do you get to the queue page?
My bad.
there isnt a queue there
good
does the visual of your position in the queue not exist anymore?
It may, but the queue was more to keep the website from crashing (it still barely held together). So good news is that you may not have to worry baout the queue if you're instantly getting to the page(s)
New battlefield will only be GREAT if the end screen shows people jumping!
PLEASE
schizo posting
YES
Pre release builds are great because you can get an idea what the devs were thinking around that time of the build.
Oh hey I've seen this dude before in the pokenon server.
Who?
The Persian king dude.
comander?
Seen on twitter there 1.4 million people in the queue 🤮🤣🤦♂️
YES Commander
Thank you
Shoot when i first registered, I was behind 9,000 other people, just within the first few mins of it going live lol
I'd LOVE a commander feature making a comeback!
Something like commander is needed
oh gods, I was around 30,000 when I got into the queue
Commander was so cool
A friend I'm on battlefield said they was 1.7 million.
If you think about strategy (not just action and tactics) while playing, you will see the teams behave like brainless monkeys, there needs to be some higher order thinking being applied, it would elevate the actual game
I'm glad I got in at 16k. But glitches out with an error then was 259k in the queue. I'm all signed up now. That 259k took over 1 day tho man it's gonna be weeks for these guys
Well thats good news when it comes to showing how many people want a new battlefield that presumably isnt 2042
Yeh, i can't WAIT to uninstall that shite
The only reason I play 2042 is to kill in the Nightbird and attack choppas
Just do it now and play BF4 😉
I miss BF4 man. I play it here and there
I stopped playing after the first season it was so bad
The game still feels shit. I'm on Xbox and the imput feels so weird and bugged. So I just fly now and kill everyone 🤣🤣
I cant get into 2042 at all. Ive tried multiple times whenever I would see a new substantial update and like, the core it having those specialists is what kills it for me
It's just so stale bro, it doesn't look or feel like battlefield. Then they released that snippet of gameplay.. I was like THIS LOOKS LIKE BATTLEFIELD
this is a really good point.
Im on xbox as well. Redownloaded bf1 and there are about 4 full servers for operations mode
Yh there's alot of grass sniffers bro
I always wanted a BF with the whole 128 players thing but never realized it would cost us actual destruction as well lol
I agree. Completely killed the game
64 conquest with real destruction really is core battlefield
Bro we should all just start an unoffical BF clan when the new one comes out
Comprised of nothing but all of us Fans
Yea they for sure lied through their teeth on 2042
128 players will never work. It hurts the net code. Server Htz go from 40 to nothing. It was a terrible idea
The trailer team are truly talented mate. I was in shock when I saw the trailer and the Rendezook. Them the game released and didn't touch it for over 1 year
I dont know about never, but certaintly not even now with current tech lol
64 v 64 was perfect for me
64 players is the sweet spot. Good maps, vehicles, destruction. Net code. More than that the game goes to shit.
I agree though. I was sold and got burned hard. I got the most expensive version😂
Saaame 🤮🤮 my bank called and said I got robbed 🤣🤣
Same xD
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I do feel for dice though being under EA. they push them to release a shit game put and they know it's not finished. Like BF2025 of they feel it's not ready they should delay. If BF2025 is shit. I'm done with battlefield... this is the final straw man. They've flopped with BFV and 2042. they CANT fuck up again.
Hopefully they learned lol
Hopefully brother
We're all hoping it's good and the CTE should push the game to be good.
exactly
We just need experienced players in to give too constructive feedback
Exactly
I've been playing battlefield since 2005 on battlefield modern combat on the 360. I know the mechanics of battlefield. In and out. I'd love to work for them or with them to give what the community wants
Same here
I've been playing since Bad Company 2
I participated in that Beta
It was my first Beta lol
AWEEE the memories 🥺🥺💜💜
I remember running to the local game shop and sprinting home to play it 💜💜
Then BF3 💜💜💜
BF3 was fun too
Ohh man. Battlefield was SIIIICKKKK
Ikr
BF4 was the game i actually put a lot of time in too like BC2.
I have over 600 hours on it lol
I started on battlefield 4. I do wish I could have played bf3 tho.
bf3 had a specific vibe
If they can keep it authentic to battlefield. No cringey cosmetics. Proppa military gear. Good BF3-BF4 mechanics. Balanced gameplay. Good destruction. We're set 🙌🙌🔥
The only thing I'd take from another game is the gun customisation from deltaforce. If implemented properly and all guns balanced it would make guns look sick. Have a scope, Muzzle, different stock for different situations. Different hand grips etc. Laser or flash light. Would be cool
guyyd is there still a queue
Yeh bro. 1.4m apparently
Holy crap xD
I would send a pic. But I can't in here
I feel bad for those people
Yo
I feel like when the new battlefield comes out
We need to get a clan going
Check your dms
I'm in a platoon already Grmr. And playing with TVI on Xbox.
Holy crap
xD
Legit 1.4 mill
Wow
Oooh
Nice
I havent been in a group since BC2
Yeh bro 🤣
What platform you on ?
Thats nuts lol
I have Xbox Series X
But i will be playing on PC
Im actually debating on renting a PC from NZXT so i can start streaming
Yeh we're all on Xbox. Come play with us and we'll see if Grmr or TVI take you in. I'm loyal to GRmr but playing with TVI too. We're all cool with eachother. Grmr play 2042 now and then. But TVI are on most nights
Add me on Xbox, Gt: Last Identity.
Do you PTFO? and are you vehicles or infantry ?
i got in with no queue at all just now
I like to run and gun, i dont typically get into vehicles xD
Really. Wtf was going on now then. My BF friend said they're 1.7 mill and saying there's a miss count.
Battlefield isn't cross platform huh?
2042 is but we have crossplay off
Next game needs, bf3 vibe, bf4 gunplay, bfV graphics, Battlefield 1 immersion
ive queued before and got pretty close but it bugged out
so maybe they accounted for that
idk
I still play battle field ww2
I actually loved BFV. Got gold in all the guns I used
Which ones that? Cos there's BFV or battlefield 1942
Actually i play COD on Xbox on PC through my Xbox app
So never mind ill add you
I got the arcade 1942 and have been hooked ever since.
Guys what’s ur thoughts on hard line
I even enjoyed the mostly hated battlefield hardline.
I loved the campaign and the sniping was prime
Adding you now
Done.
What are you guys playing?
I got you bro
Nothing atm.
I'll probably be on battlefield tomorrow some time.
Which battlefield
Id have to redownload it. I could suffer in that game now and then
I tried looking up your discord name on xbox, but couldnt find you
I am as well
Wasn't that game dead already?
EA already said that they'll no longer support it.
The ai have aimbot in vehicles, so that makes it fun
XD
They stopped supporting bf4 and prior titles to that one
Release date 2026. Think we getting gta 6 before bf6?
Well they haven’t announced a delay yet
GTA going to be delayed with their ongoing workers strike lol
I didn’t know there was a strike.
Yeh 2042 is pretty much dead on Xbox. But there's a lil community on Xbox, we play portal, normal damage and that. I have about 4-5 games and then get off because it just feels shit. But I like flying and terrorising people.
EA CEO Andrew Wilson says the next Battlefield game will launch in FY26
Published February 4, 2025 4:32 PM, by Bill Lavoy
Electronic Arts (EA) reported its Q4 2024 earnings results on Tuesday, and during the company’s conference call Electronic Arts CEO, Andrew Wilson, revealed that the next Battlefield game would be released prior to the end of EA’s fiscal year 2026.
I meant for gta 6, my bad
I hope not but, makes sense
Gotcha. I really hope it releases on time. Legit buying a ps5 just for it lol
If you play with us in the portal servers you'll have the guys to fun around with, you'll have the tank/ram players, and me in the helis or jets. We had a winning streak of 7 one night. And won on stadium in 2mins 57 seconds 🤣🤣 PTFO 🔥
so when new BF not this year
they delayed it for 2026?
well EA fiscal earnings are done on 4th Q of the year and if EA said new BF will be released prior to the end of EA fiscal 2026 that is 2025 at the end
I really want to see this new battlefied do good. (Vet for Life)
They're most likely aiming for October. It's when most Battlefields have dropped
Tomorrow is Take-Two’s earnings call. Maybe will know more then.
Im hoping the new one is good.
23HjvbFM,L;IPI08OBBB9
I have high hopes.
Me to. Been playing Battlefied before mt Fav BF2 Pc Version
Battlefield Bad Company 2 was my first Battlefield.
This may be my last one my hands are getting older. LOL
Ikr
Same
I've already quit playing COD as much xDD
I have been waiting for a GOOD Battlefield game.
Last year was my last for COD. To much sweats
I'm looking for teamplay. Arcade slash Milsim
My mistake
We love you too man xD
Thx
Goodnight
Thanos 420
lol
Man, it’s the same for me with cod. Whatever they did made the super tryhards come out this year. I need that battlefield itch scratched
Omni Movement bro xD
I've been playing Arma
Like, you can be doing horribly in battlefield and it’s still fun. CoD, you just feel miserable the entire time
I been playin dishonored 2
Agreed
COD is for the kids. My mind is much greater then that.
I've been playing Spiderman 2 xD
Helldivers 2 for me
Im going between Spiderman 2 and Star War Jedi Survivor
If it was xbox yes lol. I got it for steamdeck but it runs poorly for half the planets
Wasn’t there a rumor that it’s supposed to be coming to Xbox in the future? I heard it somewhere but never found confirmation
Same thing with Halo coming to PS
Ive looked into it profusely, but sony is too greedy
Maybe in a few years with xbox games all going to playstation with their multiplat strategy
Id still buy it 4-5 years from now
FY 2026 is april 2025 to april 2026, it's still gonna release end of this yearmost likely
Hoping that this battlefield get dirty. Back to real teamplay that make you want to use a mic. Need soldiers to move the correct way not floating on air. gun weight is important too.
I’ve been through the ups and downs with that game. Still more fun than CoD
It’s in a good place now. As long as they lift the specific nations ban we’ll be good to go
Saame lol
I’m worried my sign up may have glitched. I don’t have the Playtests in Progress option on the portal. I’ll be relying on y’all lol
i love how the Characters in the teaser footage looked like actual modern day soldiers with the right camo and uniforms. hopefuly specialists are gone for good
Pretty sure they confirmed that
Specialists have been removed.
I need this game to be like. You know what? I can die now good. LOL
Make some good maps too
Give me Operation Metro in portal
take a shot everyone someone in this server says "bf4 was peak"
Honestly ive played battlefield since 1942 and really hope this game turns things around for the franchise. hopefully destruction is similar to the rivals
Have anyone played BF2 the 2005 version?
I have lol
ngl at the end of its life it was. especially with the community operations maps they did free after all 4 dlcs
2142 was peak.
the prolonged lifecycle is the reason i prefer it over 3
Let’s also get WSO in fighter jets
2142 was awesome. loved the titan mode
I just hope this go around they keep all cosmetics really grounded. id love it if they did character customization similar to ghost recon wildlands
thats a big ask tho
There was talk about it earlier. I don’t recall any really out there cosmetics in 2042. Not on the CoD levels at least
The platform of BF2 was on point. A squad of 7 with their own job. Calling your engineer to fix the satellites as being a Commander. Young guys don't know about that.
Oh, please give us more than 4 people per squad
eh lot of them are still kinda wack imo. not bad compared to cod, but still they didnt help immersion at all.
Lol
hot take, i want them to bring weapon mastery battlepacks backl from bf4
I wish attachments weren’t a pain to get
only the weapon mastery ones
squad of 7 was fun. they went to 4 when they started doing console version's
Especially since there were so....Supply Drop ish......
not the regular ones with camos and shit
ooo
Didn’t BF4 have 5 man squads?
4
i like the thought of only unlocking american scopes on american guns and then when you master weapons u can get attachments from russian weapons to put on it as well and vice versa
Ok now that i agree. lol.
That’s a tough one
I think it was 4. Some time i do see 5 but it was a mistake
Yeah, i swear it was 5
thats how they did it in 4 with the bf 4 mastery battle packs you unlocked using weapons
Must’ve been too long. Oh well
I reeeeally want them to bring back tracer darts, speaking of hot takes
also it would be cool to see the phantom program return as well
All I'm looking for honestly are the following because let's be honest in most of the BF games there were things to keep and improve going forward.
- Back to the usual classes in the character menu
- Battlefield 3 and 1 destruction/physics
- Battlefield V rag dolls with splash damage back
- Battlefield 3-4 weapons and vehicles upgrade to whatever the next ones would be
- Battlefield Bad Company 2, Battlefield 1 and V map layouts to whatever the new maps for the upcoming game (s) would look like especially for Breakthrough.
it was, and maybe this time do a character cosmetic instead of a weapon for better balance,
Please take away seeing your friendly through walls
No operators for the love of god, standard classes please.
Been confirmed
also no weird asss voice lines at start and end of round for the love of god
Let’s also get 50+ guns at launch
The destruction/engine will be key - here’s hoping it launches the next generation of consoles along with GTA6
Cod is braindead. Did you ever play insurgency sandstorm? The movement is not great, but still a lot of fun
When i seen elf's near Christmas on 2042 I've rest the game for awhile. LOL
Yikes can we get blood stains back?
I really hope so with the customization of bf4.
ngl proxy chat would also be kinda cool
imagine talking shit to the enemy on operation locker/metro
Mentally I’m still on rust from MW2 (the first one since EA and Activision share the same naming guy)
That would be cool.
I'd be fine with a top 30 at launch then increase whenever a new season drops
This would be huge. Bring back mics and game chat!
Yeah put some blood in it. Parents please read before buying.
exactly! battlebit did that and it was hilarious
Oh and commander mode
I was just about say commander mode
I don’t know if any of yall played it on mobile back in the day - but that was really cool to be able to “assist” in an active match
most importantly... i want wall climbing hovercrafts again XD
I did
Immagine just shit talking the other team's commander whenever
It was amazing
I was just talking about commanders mode but put it in BF2 Version
They really need to nerf the AA/AT options
open mic when near enemies will be great
The whole spotting + separate person lock on was amazing
Bodyshield would be interesting
also no more stealth air vehicles. that shit is mad annoying
Can you elaborate?
I think im making opposite point lol
(It should be HARDER to shoot down air/heavys)
2042 has air vehicles that you can not lock onto and that hover miles above dropping bombs
Any game of 2042 with a decent pilot in a stealth craft was near impossible to kill
the use of binoculars for spotting
Honestly haven’t spent that much time on 2042
What was the name of that scope thing for snipers
SOFLAM
2042 is OKish where it now is but it was too late
Most Importantly we need Battlefield Friends back
I use my steam deck to remote play on my Xbox series X to play bot matches in 2042 - otherwise I find it unbearable knowing how good previous games were. This gives it an arcadey feel
There were games where I would fly the stealth helicopter all game and drop 100+ kills
It was OP
yeah it was wayyyy to broken and still is
And then they added the stealth bomber
BC2 hybrid with BF3 vehicles would be perfect
Am I the only one thinking about the music? 🥲 I hope soundtracks are going to be as beautiful as the ones in bf1
We got BF3 music, so it’s a start
I’m just here for the Atmos game audio (and DV video)
I would love proximity chat to be in tbe new one
Very True. would also be cool if they had good music playing on vehicle radios like in hardline
That would be awesome!!
Honestly that seems like a waste of dev time at this point
They need to go back to the core
A good OST can completely change the tone of a fight
I’m talking about the in vehicle radios lol
Packs should not be guns it should be different armed forces.
eh, idk. its really not that hard to do. the rights to the music would be the most costly part abt it
True
Maybe just have the composer make several tracks specifically for the multiplayer and one random various artist song as an easter egg found on the map like on a radio somewhere
hmmm like cosmetic packs? they could do Nato vs CSTO and each season could focus on a new country adding their uniforms, weapons, and vehicles to unlock
Hans Zimmer
Please
How about a maps between water. Need a helicopter call one in
Kobe your right
Kobe i hope to join you on Battlefield Labs we think the same.
Give me the Shanghai building destruction and we’re all good
Bro imagine storming a map with all your homies with the pirates of the carribean sound track blaring xDD
Maybe have one Sea Battle map on each Season drop. I mean a real Sea Battle where one team defends the Ship while the other team attacks. Could possibly open the gates to Land, Air and Sea battles
hope to see you there!
so like carrier assault from bf4?
Yes
that would be sick!
Any specific guns people want? Modern era ought to have some good ones
I’d personally love to have the MX4 Storm back
I need this Battlefield to be close to MILSIM but 20% of that Arcade. Not everyone ready for 100% Milsim but I'm ready.
I'm in Brazil, can I subscribe now or have to wait until it is available in LATAM?
Pretty sure it’s only NA and EU
Yes
Were you able to subscribe to the program?
I can't wait for this. I only ask one thing to be fixed. I would like the ability to turn crossplay off
Sig XM7, XM250, ASH-12. MP7, M40A5, SR-25, Glock 19x, M249, 240B, M18, M4a1, benelli m1014, AN-94, AKM, AK74, AK-12, AK5c, As VAL, SAKO TRG, and PkP to name a few
I think I’m in, but the Playtest portal doesn’t show any confirmation like everyone else’s, so idk
Got to go. I''ll see you on the Battlefield. 
Bc when I go to the website here in Brazil, I can only subscribe to the newsletter and join the discord
Should someone be taking notes on what we would like to see so whoever is chosen has that sheet ready to add to the notes and attempt to get what can be done in the game vs what can't?
Love that list
any you want to add?
Throw in a few more, like the AA-12, DP12, MP5, Sig Sauer, H&K 411, G36C, AW50, MP7, AUG, IWI Galil, Galil ACE, L96A1
And of course the infamous AEK-971
great choices!
anyone having trouble signing up for the playtest? I got through and I get to thise page with a sign in button but I click it and it just time sout
I got in just fine
I get this message after a while "The application has encountered an error. It doesn't appear to have affected your data. Lets start againtest."
I'm getting the exact same thing
I got in relatively early the day of the announcement, then the site just booted me out and put me back in the queue
Site just isn't working properly for me and I can't finish the sign up
I got a response to the effect of they'll email me back when the time comes.
I wish we could get some kind of support help
Does anyone have the Register your Interests selection on their page?
I do
Okay I eventually got in somehow
Did you already have a playtest account or did you make one when signing up?
Because that option isn’t there for me
And I think having a playtest account before hand may be causing the issue
I guess I’m just cooked then lmao
So if you signed up for labs when can you expect to play demo ?
What happened for me was going through sign in page, choosing to take a survey so they know what I'm interested in ect. and finally other info. Did that happen for anyone else?
I remember logging in an hour after the queue was live, and it immediately took me to the playtest page to register. I did the survey and submitted it
Then your good
Cool
Hopefully. Everyone i have talked to says they have a Playtest in Progress tab, while mine isn’t there. Maybe I’m just overthinking things lmao
yellow
Yeah. Would send a picture but can’t here
lol
I have a Playtests Available and Upcoming tab
Don’t have the Playtests in Progress
wait a date been placed in the calendar?
Not yet.
Yeah, don’t see it. Just see Available and Schedule
oh
Nope
Thats weird
If I try signing up on the labs page, I get directed to the same page
I'm in and it pretty much shows Playtests Available and My Playlists as Nothing in them yet.
It shows mine as upcomming
Does it have a Register your Interests option?
Registering your interests is just a way for them to know your preferences
Already did that last night
The people I’ve talked to say that when you click on it, it just says thanks for registering and keep an eye on your inbox
Yep you should be good to go and are in the wating lobby like the rest who filled out what was needed
Thats what it says to me
How long does it take to get the initial email???
Whenever they start sending out invites.
It happens when it happens
Oh, so once you complete it it’s no longer there?
@serene prism Cool cool thank you
Correct
If it wont let you sign up again or the link doesnt show up
Your good.
Weird. Then why do some people have that In Progress tab?
Lmao
It's a mystery
Thanks for the help guys
I sent you a pic of mine @lofty jay
I’m out here panicking thinking I’m gonna miss out after having 10+ years lmao
Got them in a stun lock line
guys
Nah you should be good.
What happend ?
It was weird, cuz I logged into my account to sign up, and it skipped the queue for me. The registration was there and I submitted the survey, then it disappeared lmao
Yeah so your good then.
GGs
What happend?
I pressed next after choosing the in-person location and it suddenly just said "survey is interrupted"
Refresh and try again
Did you try to apply again?
okay it just said that the survey is over
O_O
was that the last question for anyone?
The first or second survey?
"Congratulations, your registration for Battlefield Labs is complete!
Invites for Battlefield Labs Playtests will be sent via email - keep an eye on your inbox!
I'd like to go back to the Battlefield website"
ive only done one survey
You should be good?
Your good man
Your all signed up.
Yes
I’m pretty sure the first survey is a Playtest account. The second survey is the battlefield one
okay thanks
"THANK YOU FOR REGISTERING"
lol
