Battlefields movement was different in almost every release, never have I seen it be a decisive point

they will tell you the game is arcade

Broken movement tech shouldn't be a thing and anyone that champions for that to exist is a goofball

Not really, AA and smooth analog is a much larger advantage for the majority of players who don't have aim skills.

honestly id like DICE to add higher caliber sniper rifles, akin to the .416 barret from Hardline

ever heard of "fifty caliber"?

The best part of all battlefields, is when you see 4x medics within 10m, and all of them just run away somewhere...

Also dice don't do mixed medic and support that was stupid

Why would support have ammo and an med bag

Give ammo bags to assault

Like BC2

Fake promises from EA

I know why they are delaying. Bugs and glitches

That's game dev LMAO

covert nest
#

I hope you do realise game dev isn't exactly the most stable thing considering that anything can break at any time.

still wren
#

Also forcing a game out with "bugs and glitches" is how you get a Cyberpunk Launch. I'd rather they delay, fix, optomise and get it right before release. You aren't owed anything @jolly hedge so please don't act so entitled, it's exhausting to anyone with a shred of intelligence.

As things move on yeah devs teams change for the better or worse.

This isn't exclusive to battlefield.

mossy marten
#

Well, not all of them are gone tho

covert nest
#

I do agree in the fact that quality has waned though i believe it's more than a fact that the dev team has changed.

#

Corporatism is what infects most media for the better and worst.

still wren
#

Shareholders are the enemies

#

Devs are the scapegoats

covert nest
#

I don't want to pretend I know everything

#

But after talking to a lot of devs I believe I have an idea about the processes that go on.

#

@jolly hedge engaging in good faith here dude. Game dev is broken, the larger the game the more parts that break and the vision for the game goes all over the place.

#

I was told by one how everything is pretty just given the strongest of rubber bands and duct tape for full release.

#

A lot of hacks and cheats go into game dev to make things work.

#

Pre release builds they have to make sure they specifically work for the public they're releasing it to.

Making sure it doesn't break as much but using that user data to collect as much information as possible to understand behaviour, breakages and shit.

#

Only thing I expect for you is to understand.

Hey Battlefield team...going to be in Orlando Fl starting this Saturday. Any chance you'd let me and my son stop by and participate, perhaps even just a tour? It would mean a lot to Charley and I if you could swing something like that. Otherwise we'll only be able to participate in remote testing. SadCompany

Welp, there is a playtest this Friday.

Sucks to not have been selected but oh well

Congrats to those who were selected and give good feedback please!

Now that it's confirmed that I'm part of the unlucky ones (how surprising, story of my life), I guess I can finally have peace of mind

nimble bridge

I wish DICE released all the feedback they got so we could have a laugh leo I bet people will genuinely ask for ''No sliding, no jumping, no hipfiring, stamina based running''

#

I hope next BF combines classic server browsers with 2042-like playlists

#

I would like to see some official limited time modes

40v40 Frontlines for example CursedCat

But server browser should also exists for TDM, Conquest, BT, Rush etc.

#

I've been telling it day 2, I assumed 1.5M people signed up, it was appearently 1.3M but there is still less than 0.5% chance to join the test assuming they are taking in 5-10K people

#

If they were taking like 100K people then chance would be a lot better

plain bluff
#

that'd depend on how many people stay as permanent bf6 testers.

#

and whether they cycle people between playtests

#

we know nothing, really

nimble bridge
#

I don't think they will cycle them, they will most likely expand the playtesters

#

Maybe 100K at the end of playtests but that's going to be basically open beta anyways

# plain bluff id love some source on this

Tried to look for anything reliable. Only found a latin youtuber mentioning that the first playtest will take place this friday and will be for about 2 hours (4 to 6 pm Europe time)

#

He also mentions that the name of the game will be revealed in the playtest and of course, everyone is asked to keep it a secret

#

but nothing else, nothing that can be take as a 100% granted

#

It is also mentioned that the only thing that the testers can share (if any) is their overall experience, without revealing any specifics of what they tested. This last part doesn't seem reliable as I am sure you are not supposed to even tell you got an invite?

mild girder
#

And no, they are not allowed to share detail but what did they expect when publicly announcing they are doing Playtests, so many people that don’t even know that they signed a NDA without being picked are talking about stuff that they are not allowed to (email etc)

steel torrent
#

yup, as I said, nothing that can be taken as 100% certain

#

oh, of course. Expect leaks this friday, for real

#

I would be surprised if it was not the case

mild girder
#

Tbh I wouldn’t expect much info, since only a few have already leaked that the playtest is on Friday, I have no hopes for any leaks etc (since there are other factors that hinder those leaks too)

You will receive a Mail if you are selected and not get a new Playtest Session to sign up for.

Okay dice

Here’s a recommendation

#

For portal two if it’s a real thing add this

mild girder
#

AMD won

#

9070XT matches the 5070 Ti in rasterization

silver cedar
#

Bf2, bf1, bf5, and bf2042

#

Cool

#

Also welcome back man

feral garden
#

AMD just did the same thing it always does. Release a cheaper card with performance in raster the same as a gpu a price tier above it.

silver cedar
#

It’s pretty cool

feral garden
#

Why would they bother to add 2042. Literally everyone dislikes it and it's a stain on the franchise

silver cedar
#

Why don’t you post

signal vigil
#

2142 would be neat

silver cedar
#

OMG YES

signal vigil
#

But I’m not really interested in portal tbh, just want a solid base game

silver cedar
#

Fuck 2042 2142

signal vigil
#

Also gm guys

#

Highly doubt they would add non Frostbite games to portal

signal vigil

feral garden
#

No eras, just make portal be the weekly and special modes section.

vague barn
#

I'd rather not have a Portal mode frogconcern
It just drains population...

versed token
#

If they don't already have assets they can use

silver cedar
#

Well the base game and campaign comes first

#

Then they add the side content

feral garden
#

Everything should be built on the same system. Portal being a hub from which you can launch different experiences and modes.

vague barn
#

I would however really like to see a map editor, which is a little contradictory at its core perhaps.

silver cedar
#

If it’s a BR cool I mean I don’t like BR’s other than the halo br but I’ll check it out

signal vigil
silver cedar
#

If they do

vague barn
silver cedar
#

And make it like halo infinite forge we are set

#

Because infinite forge is the best forge

#

The good news is there’s a campaign so the focus will make more sense

#

But to be honest we are asking for a lot guys

#

And girls

This channel is essentially a den of hypotheses, theories, and wishlists. I doubt that any of the Battlefield Studios actively monitor this channel.

Because most of us are crazy or people that say battlefield is dead

# fleet robin add forge and essentially let players make the content for them

I don't have much of an issue with developers having community created content included in the actual product, so long as they don't rely on it entirely and do provide credit to the original author(s). For instance, should there be a map editor, I would be radically opposed to EA or DICE just including the map without a very clear disclosure that it is community created.

Having a tile on the main UI, from which a player can select and join into a mode that's in rotation makes complete sense. Most players dont want to deal with server browsers.

They will shoot themselves in the foot with adding SBMM and no server browser WearyOK

Or with making a boring slow game

mild girder
#

and that isnt even a leak or anything, its what EA probably wants for the game

Who knows, fans want that

2042 doesn't have SBMM either but if there is no server browser in the next game then there is 90% chance there is going to have SBMM

mild girder
#

I want a Ice Cream, do i get it though?

nimble bridge
#

They are marketing this game as ''return to form''. Server browsers are a legacy feature many BF players wants.

#

So it's up to them to stick to their words or not

mild girder

Its called Marketing for a reason

#

dont believe everything they say

until the game is launched

I'd assume maybe a week after the playtest

feral garden
#

Probably end of next month at the earliest

vague barn
#

Well, I would probably expect it in late-ish April.

feral garden
#

Yall need to control your expectations

vague barn
#

Would be a good laugh if it released April 1st though.

heavy lodge
#

So if approved ,is this a confirmation or will there be a follow up email?

feral garden
#

They may not even release any info about the first few tests. They likely will be system tests to make sure the various players don't have issues joining and playing the tests.

vague barn
#

To actually be able to present any information of value, there'll likely be quite a long "processing" period where the feedback from the initial rounds are examined and then disclose what issues were raised, and what has been done about those.

playtest this friday

vague barn
#

I don't expect detailed changelogs, but I would welcome seeing what has been tested in the relevant month.

spice bramble
#

They could say something at least

vague barn
#

Which, at least to me, seems like a much more reasonable method of testing and disseminating information. To do it per month rather than per week.

spice bramble
#

But it's DICE sooooo

feral garden
#

I don't expect anything. No cope on my side at all. These are closed tests for a reason. Same with no public announcements of when the tests will happen.

spice bramble
#

It's ok to expect but also not be surprised/disappointed when something does not happen

vale burrow
#

especially communication wise

feral garden
#

Yeah, I fully expected communication about a closed test I'm not part of. /s

Taht's inside gamer, not leak x)

did you even see who the author is

cedar flax
#

that's issue ?

#

😦

#

I deleated it

feral garden
#

Yes, it is a leak

#

His "insider source" is no longer with EA tho. (if rumors are to be believed) 🤣

#

Mods have been removing messages about leaked info, so you're wrong.

#

Gg tho

#

Same here, on reddit, etc.

nimble bridge
#

They removed my post when I mentioned last year's ||BC3|| leaks too leo

spice bramble
#

Is there a general rule of thumb for playtest frequency

fleet robin
#

not really sure what your point is

spice bramble
#

The rules state that you're not allowed to share any leaked info further

#

No matter what

fleet robin
#

yeah maybe don't, considering it's against the rules

#

i'm not telling people not to share leaks for fun

feral garden
#

Those were not closed tests

#

Logic is flawed

fleet robin
#

no game spoilers, sharing leaks, promoting leaks, or otherwise encouraging leaking behavior

nimble bridge
#

My bad lol

#

Anyways, it's not the best idea to share leaks on official BF discord anyways

vague barn
#

Man. The "Creator Network" tag really is just a glorified blue name, huh?

feral garden
#

Pretty much

swift summit
#

I'm just a creator, nothing more

fleet robin
#

having a large playtest doesn't mean they can't also attempt to keep the game hidden as much as possible

vague barn
feral garden
#

Probably best to not encourage rule breaking at the same time tho.

daring shoal
#

Could someone tell me how do I know if my registration for Battlefield Labs is confirmed? If I log into the EA Playtesting portal, I still have the option to register, even though I've done it several times (including the survey). A friend of mine received a confirmation email, but I haven't. What am I possibly doing wrong?

As soon as give people the chance to download the build of the game on their personal PCs, it will be in the public

#

Unless, it's all specifically controlled and everyone involed have proper legit NDAs

quick bluff
#

They got one more try after 2042 disappointing launch

swift summit
#

I agree

#

But, I have a good feeling about this game. Don't know why, nor I can explain, but I never felt good about BF2042, even before the game was announced (leaks, rumours, etc). This is opposite for me, so I want to believe we will be fine

feral garden
#

Regardless of the success level of their NDA. Posting about tests, or info related to them is not allowed here.

Randoms seeing creators advocating for leaks to be posted is only going to get them muted, timed out and/or banned.

swift summit
#

I'm not advocating anything. I'm saying that you discuss it if it's literally in the public somewhere

quick bluff
#

Welp they have all this playtest stuff going nothing really to hide once players download the game

swift summit
#

This Labs room was created for a reason

#

To provide feedback for the developers and teams working on this game

quick bluff
#

Im sorry but no leaks was posted so go take a seat

fleet robin
feral garden
#

I have reasonable faith in the team that rebuilt 2042 post launch, and that the team of studios, producers, and franchise leadership they have in place now can deliver a good game. One that's an authentic BF experience.

swift summit
feral garden
#

Saying you don't advocate it, then immediately saying you do. Lol

no?

i'm talking about you saying you can talk about leaks

Oh how i miss titanfall 2

#

Normally a discussion section in a discord server means discussing everything from leaks to what ever

nimble bridge
fleet robin
nimble bridge
#

Well it's against the server rules

fleet robin
#

people just don't read at all

#

not the rules, not the emails, not the nda

feral garden
#

No, it isn't. And this server has specific rules against leak posting. People have already been timed out and/or banned. You are completely wrong.

vague barn
#

#rules
Story spoilers - No game spoilers. This also includes leaks (sharing leaks, promoting leaks, or otherwise encouraging leaking behavior).

#

How is this so hard to get across?

swift summit
#

Story spoilers, duh

vague barn
swift summit
#

I don't want that shit spoiled either

fleet robin
#

story spoilers, and then they go on to specify VERY clearly that it also includes all forms of leaks

feral garden
#

Selective reading, when they've already been told people have been banned for posting leaks. Bruh

fleet robin
#

it shouldn't even be a discussion lmao, they literally just purged messages about 10 minutes ago in the battlefield channel because people were talking about leaks

vague barn
#

Story spoilers - NO GAME SPOILERS. This also includes leaks (sharing leaks, promoting leaks, or otherwise encouraging leaking behavior).

spice bramble
#

Don't know if I'm advocating by saying this or not at this point

sage folio
#

they wont be annoyed too if they see one, but they want the mod role so bad so they have to act like that

swift summit
#

Imagine giving feedack to developers? The feedback they requested, in Battlefield Labs room created specifically for that. I know, crazy right?

spice bramble
#

To be fair, that's not for Labs. In any case, there are cleary rules in place for a reason

#

They'll release official blog posts down the line

#

It's for that

#

Now it's simply a room like any other because there are no news

vague barn
#

Considering the rules specifically forbid discussion of leaks, I would imagine the developers will ask for feedback on what they want feedback on specifically, as opposed to basing their feedback collection on leaks.

quick bluff
#

So what is battlefield labs exactly is it something where the community can make their own maps n stuff gamemodes ect?

vague barn
#

I'm gonna go vacuum clean, as that is a far more productive than this discussion.

Basically, BF made an oopsie, and now players how to fix their oopsie in the LABS

swift summit
#

Nah, game is still long way away. I had convos with developers about them wanting having CTE before the game releases, but it never happened. Years later, it's a reality and it's a good thing

spice bramble
#

Players don't have to fix shit for them, they're there to provide feedback which all of you wanted

silver cedar
#

@narrow quest

potent trail
#

it's also good advertising if everything goes well
The CTE's post-release of earlier BF's were celebrated

swift summit
#

And data from servers is extremely valuable. More valuable than on site playtesting

silver cedar
potent trail
#

plus then you can later say 'Hey man this game is good, the CTE fixed this that and the other' or 'Man the CTE was fun' with less stress on the official release

silver cedar

So what yall talking about

potent trail

I'd prefer a good game came out of the box but if Labs and CTE's help, then so be it

BFL sounds like Battlefield League to me, but that's me

BFC
Battlefield Chemistry or C(TE)

But what’s the next game gonna be called

We still don’t know

swift summit

The reason why Labs is called Labs, is because CTE is not very marketable

heady thorn
#

Well, Labs is a place for experimentations irll.

silver cedar

Is it gonna be just battlefield or bf6

nimble bridge

I don't want them to call it BF(tm) though, I think it should have a number

I'm ok with just "Battlefield". We need a fresh new start anyway

nimble bridge

I'm not, it's confusing

potent trail

BF:G also doubly fits because it's the 7th 'big' BF (G is the 7th letter in the alphabet)

swift summit

It's a reboot, so why not? (I don't know if it is, but seems like it)

silver cedar

there has never been a game just called "Battlefield"

Battlefield V

battlefield (2025 - 15th game)
battlefield 1 (2016 - 12th game)
battlefield 2 (2005 - 3rd game)
battlefield 3 (2011 - 9th game)
battlefield 4 (2013 - 10th game)
battlefield V (2018 - 13th game)

if it's called just battlefield it'll keep this nightmare going for years to come

swift summit

BFV is a shit name by the way. I still stand by that

potent trail
#

Battlefeld 2 : Modern Combat 2 the Second

nimble bridge

They should call it Battlefield: Modern Warfare leo

silver cedar

The new battlefield will be BF5

That’s the name

fleet robin
#

yeah technically there was never a battlefield 5

swift summit
#

Same energy as Black Ops 4, but it's a prequel to Black Ops 3, but a sequel to Black Ops 2

mossy marten
#

It's either going to be called Battlefield, Battlefield 6, Battlefield 5 (if they really wanna fuck with us), or Battlefield bad Company 3 (if they really wanna ride nostalgia for this one)

BC3 would need to have a banging campaign though

I had 0.7 KD in BF3, I had 1.5 KD in BFV, I just got better over time

I'm sure we could actually work this naming convention out, one second
BF: 1942 (PC)
BF: Vietnam (PC)
BF: 2 (PC)
BF: 2 Modern Combat (Console)
BF: 2142 (PC)
BF: Bad Company (Console)
BF: Heroes (PC Ftp)
BF: 1943 (Console/PC planned)
BF: Bad Company 2 (Console/PC)
BF: 3 (Console/PC)
BF: 4 (Console/PC)
*BF: Hardline (Console/PC) *
BF: 1 (Console/PC)
BF: V (Console/PC)
BF: 2042 (Console/PC)

  • So there's only 4 titles with a year, 1 with a location, 5 with the iterative release number (4 with arabic numbers, 1 with latin).
  • Absolutely none with letters (unless you count 'V' which is a latin numeral not 'Vee')
  • Years' titles never released concurrently, there was always a spinoff or a number type afterwards (less likely to have '1992' or something like that after 2042)
  • Numbers have followed after each other more recently since BF3, and there's generally less spin offs.

So my guess is it's gonna be a letter like G just to completely break this, or it'll be considered a technical spin-off title because BF2, 3 and 4 are very close in combat history timewise.

nimble bridge
#

BF6 should have a welcome playlist for new players instead, that teaches them how to play the game before they are sent into rest of the playerbase, similar to what XDefiant did

#

Or bot matches similar to how BO1 did

#

With it's training course

Okay, would yall like to see separate comms between squad leaders in the next BF? As a teamwork game I think it would add a lot of fun strategy and immersion

nimble bridge
#

Nah, there should be proximity chat instead imo

random vessel
#

Bro I would love that too

nimble bridge
#

Community feeling is lost in recent online multiplayer games imo

potent trail
#

I would love the BF4 level of organised commorose-commands system in place, seperate from chat

#

i.e. knowing which Squad lead is aiming for what obj, where the commander wants me to go, and then where the SL wants em to go if I'm just the grunt in the squad

#

Literally just a line on the map pointing at the OBJ but it did so much for organising a squad with or without a mic

heady thorn

For proximity chat I don’t know if enough people use mics for it to make sense. Also little kids on mics would ruin the vibe
