the BFV theme in the beta gave me the feelies
I wouldn't know, I always have the music turned off 
^fucking war crime
^yeah
you deserve jail
Helped win a sinai operation by taking out some campers, joined a monte grappa operation as a plane and shot down 3, then ping spiked to 1400 and then went back to normal as soon as plane crashed. Fuck me. Im done.
Why is it that I can relate to this🔼 text so well, even tho it never happened to me?
cuz you're a human being and not a carrot
That's my nickname
potato.
I'm not kidding
mainly because I'm the very cliché of a german: blond, blue eyes, loves sauerkraut and potatoes
the game will be good
I dunno why but I prefer these cramped up maps over large ones
im just expecting way too mcuh
i like the mid ranged maps
and games with 40 people
I think it's sad that we're not gonna have the same 1km range sniping in BFV anymore than we did in BF3 and BF4
._.
boring
I wasnt a big fan either but getting a headshot on a guy in a quad from 400m was just...mmmmhhh satisfying
i refuse to be in the gulag!
i will take down all of the russian soldiers if i have to!
even if i die trying
id rather die in my own concentration camp then be forced to work at your gulag
that's what makes it a gulag
it is a very unpleasant prospect
i'm afraid you must come along nonetheless
also why would you put yourself in your own concentration camp
that seems excessively masochistic
or do you work alongside the prisoners
to show equality or something
'cause I'm pretty sure that's a good way to get beamed in the head with a brick
in which case

again
aha you may think that i will be working there
and you are correct
as a guard
where i will eventually die of old age
as the reich will last 300 years
who knows, maybe the camp will be liberated and i will die protecting the fatherland
maybe you can write a book about it from my gulag
we will release it posthumously, of course
after you suffer a terrible gulag-workplace-related accident
oh yes the topic
the topic at hand
battlefield
i really appreciate that the season pass shit has been dropped
i enjoyed the ability to skip lines
i would've probably bought BO4 by now if it wasn't for it costing a million dollars
Season passes are just horrible ideas
Like, okay, if you're going to have paid DLC, fine
release it when it's done, and i'll buy it
don't tie it all together and say "look, this vague thing will one day become real"
and it might suck
or it might be good
who the fuck cares, pay us now
it might be destiny 2
battlefield 5 will be the best game since bad company 2
i predict
they are re doing everything
and it works
they got rid of bad systems
IT JUST WORKS
put good ones in
i really like all the changes they've made
they've eliminated the need to search for hardcore servers entirely
'damn'
by taking away that awful spotting
making the TTK reasonably quick
all the weapons feel proper punchy
and sliding around and shooting while crawling backwards is 
i want them to bring back the ammo and healing thing on the minimap
like in bf4
someone could ask for healing and it would show on the minimap to anyone that was near
less minimap shit the better imo
it wasnt big though
about the size of the little arrow
and it blinked white and your selected colour for your team
the good outweighed the bad
meh, makes more sense for BF4, i'd prefer as barebones as possible UI for technologically-weak WW2
i like it to match
aesthetically
i mean
ww2 wasnt that stone age
but true
we have advanced alot more
Bf5 needs to look at bf1 and 1943. Just combine those.. dream ga,e
Game*
I hope bf5 has less variety of weapons.
So the sides are more distinct
yeah
but variety is good
they can be more free with what they use now though
1943 was simple, and fun. Sides were limited to their own stuff. That was part of the fun
there should be like ww1 guns that do less damage but its like you are a soldier given outdated equipment because your country ran out of guns
Older guns shouldnt do less damage
Hell... 18th century muskets are deadlier per shot than an m16
true
but they should still be weaker
in some way
maybe less firing speed
or
longer reloads
less ammo per magazine
the thompson looks like it hurts more than the ump imo
the thompson is a beast of a gun
Ww1 weapons were mostly bolt action. So slower rate of fire co pared to the new semi autos and submachine guns
there better be the thompson in bf5
or is it comfirmed?
Could even be slow af one shot kills. Chest up.
Ofc
Its a thompson
One of the most common weapons of the war
That would be like taking germanys mp40 away from them
yeah true
or the gewehr 43 off of them
it was a commonly used gun at the start of the war
Gewehr 43 wasnt all too common. Maybe in special units, paratroopers, ss, etc. Standard issue was 98k for the vast majority of the german army.
But it will be there
a good level of depth would be the paratroopers get different guns to the ground army in bfv
they get an equivalent of it
Hitler believed that the 98k was all a soldier needed and rejected other weapons. He believed semi autos would make his troops less accurate.
it worked
mostly
lets be honest though
germany could of just stopped with czechoslovakia
not invaded poland
Had he allowed the stg44 to be widely used it could have affected the outcome of the war
Germany was fucked to begin with, lacking a navy. They would have been unable to land troops in the uk or america. They were fighting defensively unless by air.
Europe was easy.
wasnt the stg44 used only late in war?
Blitzkreig
Yep
Too late
yeah
stg 44
too late to build enough to get to its troops
only parts of the army would have it
Germany was also a quality over quantity, which really fucked them over on the eastern front.
The soviets had millions of troops
germany still did a number on them
if they didnt go to war
the world would be a different place
even if germany till lost
russia would probably have a way bigger population
Yep. Russias population is still dented
There are still less males than females there
The germans killed them all
russia would also do better if it was not icy tundra 90% of the time
i really cant wait to fight as germany
in bfv
I really love the German language tbh
same
Me too
i feel really patriotic and try my hardest whenever i get into a german team
in bf1
I know a couple words. Im going to learn the language for school.
im currently learning it
ive been learning for like a month
and i still know nothing
German is a lot like english
No:nein swine:schweine
yeah
Many similarities
its just the structure
is confusing
Subject Verb Object.
I do like beginning to undertstand some of the comments the ai makes in bf1. Wierd feeling
except with subordinating conjunctions
ugh
i hate them
whats everyone most excited for?
ZH-29, I'm disappointed I didn't get on the RSC train from the start so I figure I'll be in the highest kills for that one this game
I really wasn't keen on them in BF1, not keen for then in BFV either tbh
me neither... don't really care about singleplayer 
Yup, if I want a story I'll play Witcher again
I just don't like singleplayer games at all
im also hyped about the fact that i can kill some fucking commies
👍
hey, i've been recommended Battlefield and it does look promising
i have a question: what is its gameplay experience composed of?
and, hopefully, no grinding
holy shit, im buying this game
the only grinding is if you want a weapon
but it will take you like 30 minutes
Havent played a good ww2 flight sim in years
id wait till battlefield 5 comes out though
yeah, i'll be buying the fifth game
Half? More like 90%
idk
90% wont get the game right away
50% will
40% will either not be able to afford it, or wait till christmas
so, when will Battlefield V come out?
Early access though
Yeah, but you get like two weeks early access right?
With origin premium or whatever
two weeks?
8 days
Ah cool so the 12th then?
well it offically releases in the states on the 19th
so im assuming what i read was american
because everything is
so the 11th
with origin
and the 15th with pre order
sorry 16th*
I'm gonna get the month of origin to get the earliest access tbh
I'm very impatient
eh
ill wait a bit
abouta couple weeks
see if i can get a game off someone that didnt like it
off of my countries version of Ebay
i'm guessing it's gonna take a couple of months before the stores here find out that BF5 even exists, so i'll be buying it online, though i imagine it'll cost an extra few hundred
This'll be the game that I'm good at imo, I'll be practicing to learn the new movements in the new game.
Look on the origin store at the preorder price mate, that'll be around it
where do you live @ripe hazel
Bf 5 is cheap if u are not a poor
@solid hinge that's nothing important
turns out the game will be more affordable than i thought
Come on mate, I live in Aus 😛
Ooh, are you a PC guy mate?
Oh 😕
Fair enough, I could've gone to new Zealand but I ended up getting another PC soooo
New Pc is better 
oh i love premium
i just skipped 24 people in a line
i just love sinai only though'
Is open beta still going
no
When did it end
not sure, but quite awhile ago
20/11/2018
has it?
no
bf1 anyone
rip sorry haha
@spark quarry i'm at work... 😦
yeah just started this one, it's nice
man i'm so hyped for BFV 😃 it's the first bf when i'm like man getting this day one lol
i might wait a while though lol these games tend to have problems at launch lol
most games do, just depends on how quick the support and fixes are
yeah but i've heard about the BF4 launch 👀
BF1 had a pretty good launch
i didn't experience gamebreaking bugs or poor optimization personally
BFV i feel holds something new and exiciting
when BFV launches and all the cool kids are playing it if u aint got a 2080 Ti you will be mocked/laughed it
yall better go buy one asap
@French_Grizzly Every characters in the war stories are speaking in their respective language.
183
🙂
getting hyped about war stories with every tweet
Same here @rose pilot
it's going to be exciting
Any bit of news i tend to stop working to check it out haha
yeah i can't wait to not play war stories like i did in bf1 😄
Same the twitter feed is giving info
nah i typically do one playthough of them

what's up lapis?
Hopefully, its a long story
Just like it was a long war 
Ffffuck, as much as I know that will look good in the actual game, the amount of overlay looks hard to work with in the editor.
YES! The Blog Posts has arrived!
Awwwww yeaaaah
I find it interesting, that there is a casablanca button in the toolbar...

or above the toolbar actually
BFV's dev name is Casablanca
Since they create FrostEd, they can fill any menus with anything they want
:3 That's pretty cool.
must be a menu for BF5 stuff
i'm excited for the colonial french campaign
since casablanca is the codename of the games project
Lol u said colon
lol u said lol
I like assault the best in bf1
I am a dedicated tanker
Im dedicated to murdering you
You won't
Unless you stay in spawn
I'm dedicated to how i'm killing you.
That's a Court Martialin'
My only fear is E flag in Amiens, a lot of people stay in the 2nd story buildings and just throw anti-tank grenades and shit
If you'd play PC you would die. Just saying.
However, I love driving my tank in the Ballroom in Ballroom blitz
got excited.. the shit iPhone youtube app said New Single player battlefield reveal.. it was the one from yesterday....
Hey can someone at the BFEE community please tell them to unban me


it's really interesting i cant wait
i would of thought so
We can't help you get unbanned
for online anyway, not SP
mozzy don't ruin his hopes and dreams
meanwhile the only reason why I'm interested about the SP info is just to see some new weapons and a few of the MP mechanics
because dice are still doing the dumb "toss MP into SP and hope it sticks" for some inane reason
yeah, I have never been keen on SP, but battlefield i have to play sp 😃
Jackfrags BFV SP video is disappointing and it wasn't his video that was... Dice please...
prob going to skip SP again
I'm going to completely ignore it as per always
I really hope there isn't a bs "you need to play the SP to unlock x item in the MP" tho
never got the M249 in BF4 because I refuse to waste my time with that trash SP just to get one gun
That SP was ok, but the rest there after weren't
man sp looks bad 😦
pretty much agree with jackfrags from what i'm seeing
i mean it looks great, just wont be fun to play
then you watch Westie and he's all sun shine and rainbows
or maybe thats how im see it after jacks video
nah the biggest problem is no character progression
they are just small sandbox multiplayer fights with NPCs
ill still play it but it probably will be as boring as bf1
titan fall 2 sp reference was also a good one. but is also a bad one.
Do you guys think we will be able to use skiers as "vehicles" on snowmaps?
in multiplayer? no idea
Algeria and Libya will be featured in the
prologue mission.
would be fun i think
ye
bfv looks so good though
Much Youtubers just released SinglePlayer Contnent
Dice giving the youtubers a chance
Skiers for Multiplayer! 
lol
westie's opinion is indeed super different
i'll have to see for myself, hopefully it's good
Jackfrags saying war stories are boring
Tbh
Theres people just hating on bf v
For no reason
And they have to comment it
Like mate no one cares
if it's a lot like bf1 he's right
The AI needs to be more challenging
We haven’t played them yet so don’t judge until you play it
jackfrags put the emphasis on the bad things about sp
lets' be honest though
who buys bfv for sp
Yea but sp is a nice touch
What’s cool about the sp is that one of the characters is being voice acted by the same voice actor voiced ghost from modern warfare 2
People argued that the authenticity of the game will lie in the SP
WHO @solid hinge
I love BF campaigns
So why make that the most unappealing aspect
Ghost from modern warfare 2
Yea i know
Honestly I'm not looking forward to war stories anymore
But who does he voice
They clearly didn’t put much effort in SP
And yeha there are so many people who just want to hate on BF
I was honestly going to get the game for The Last Tiger
But now that I see how these missions turned out, yeah i don’t even know anymore
btw, for singleplayer, the compass is on top
Everything the devs hype up always ends up underwhelming
Tirailleur looks good though
Tirailleur looks really dark especially since he’s telling the story as you’re playing
Totally not like the Italian war story in bf1
btw, Chauchat and MG15
I think Stodeh had a good video
But still the AI is stupid, what difficulty do they all play in? Or for the gameplay was it all in easy mode?
Lossy was playing in the most difficult mode in his video
He was constantly taking heavy damage
I dislike how the fov everyone plays in
Shermans may be added later on in the game
Shermans made their first appearance in ww2 at the Second Battle of El Alamein
1942... post game starts 1940, if i'm not mistaken
Well maybe the British will have them first they did have Sherman's given to them by the Americans
correct in 1942
have you guys seen the Sherman tank story text yet?
not yet
I heard that the U.S. Ordnance Department was aware of the Sherman being a 'Tommy Cooker', and attempted to implement various measures to address this issue. The design team was lead by Sheldon Rosenstein, a convicted child-beater, arsonist, and avid necrophiliac. Sheldon was reportedly pen-pals with Shiro Ishii, and Oskar Dirlewanger. When questioned about these letters outgoing to hostile countries, Sheldon replied that he was merely exchanging 'tips and tricks'. Sheldon's team designed a mechanism that would lock the crew hatches shut, thus trapping the crew, when smoke was detected inside the sherman after being penetrated and set alight. Not only that, but apparently there was also a following feature that was a re-take on the Brazen Bull. When the crew was burning to death, their screams would be amplified by speakers that projected outside the tank. The U.S. Ordnance Department justified these features by proclaiming that the Germans would be frightened by the hellish screams of the sherman crews being incinerated, and allied soldiers would be more motivated to fight hard, lest the same fate befall them. Sheldon also later devised a system that had a 1 in 59 chance of setting off an explosive charge in the ammunition storage every time the Sherman's engine was turned on. Supposedly, this was to 'test the crew's luck before battle'. This innovation was well-received by the U.S. Army, but was rejected for budgetary reasons. Upon receiving news of the Army's rejection, Sheldon bludgeoned his manservant to death with a fire iron in a fit of unstoppable rage. Years after the war, Sheldon tragically died in a fire, of which he had started in a New York orphanage.
you all seen the compass on top?
Add the sdkfz 234 that will be the most annoying thing to fight
@hoary condor pretty good huh
It's a armour vehicle with a 0.79 inch autocannon 
The hard difficulty looks more enjoyable
SdKfz. 234 was an armored car, that barely counts.
Also, if they're gonna add a 234 they should add the variant with either the 5cm or 7.5cm cannon.
Ye
Pity that the game won’t launch with Eastern Front factions
Given we get all the experimental guns in BF1 are we going to get the experimental tanks in BFV
Maus ftw
....stukas were in the closed alpha and open beta
any good?
So if I have the deluxe edition and get those 2 solder tokens will I have all 8? Or is that how its not working
they were shit in the alpha because of how the bombs worked, beta they felt much more useful but I was never able to fully upgrade it to test those mechanics like spotting etc
true, but once release we get to test and try what we like
better have gatling guns.. need to take planes down haha
bf3 anyone
@hoary condor Stukas in the beta were decent, but TBH the 109 outshone *everything.
@trim gazelle Where was the flak 88? I only saw the 38 in the beta.
might not of been in beta
Also, technically it's a Flak 36 or 37 if you're referring to the 8.8cm flak.
And @hoary condor Here's a selection of 109 silliness (not me): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCS5pYkvJ7Q
i must admit im slightly disappointed after watching jackfrags say that BFV singleplayer sucks
wasn't the type 96 in the 2 minute trailer?
even though i will only buy it for the multiplayer
@hoary condor Which trailer?
where she jumps out the window as the tanks roll through.. i will find it
the reveal trailer
@south lynx https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fb1MR85XFOc&t=52s 0.52
it's not the 96 but similar looking machine
Looks like a Flak 38
dead server
what is @solid hinge ?
He thinks this server is “dead”
my favorite custom BF4 server just got shut down
@solid hinge wat?
Oh that
Sorry I didn’t know what you meant
BF4 Anybody?
In the campaign there really isnt
just installed it back
Battlefield v looks beautiful like any battlefield game
The graphics are clean and crisp
I mean
feelin fresh
The game itself
The campaign feels boring
Feels like a one off type of thing like
I’m not surprised if the campaign isn’t good
“Yea Ill play this a bit” Just just no
Battlefield just isn’t the game for campaigns
It isnt
All attention on multiplayer
but then again they’ve developed some games where the campaign was fantastic
Yeah
I want gameplay on firestorm already
I guess no campaign which is a real disappointment for me
I want to see how that plays
i always play through the campaign though and i will do it this time as well
So do I
it will be a good campaign
but i only play it once
I’ll still play it but I don’t know if I should expect anything from it
@hoary condor the newly released gameplay says otherwise
we are only making assumptions based of small bits of information we are given
I mean
Sure
I guess thats your point
But comparing the footage to this campaign
people who don't like it now, will probably love it on release.. i tend to be like that
oh fair enough
Le oofe
I just wanna see player on player gameplay tbh
It is nice to see the single player just because I am seeing more guns being used but the AI just isn't smart to really be entertaining to watch
Stodeh's aim is on fucking point which makes it one of the only entertaining one out there
I remember when everyone was harping on about AI developments in vidya
I am set on completing the War Stories on Hardest first though
Nobody cares these days. Think people gave up
sod that
But though this makes me worry about Co-Op, if the ai is this bad... then we have a problem
they still have a month before release to sort things out
a long with the dev talks, we get an insight
Fuckin I dunno
I think my favorite part of this BF is the multiplayer and everything
Everything else feels tacked on
it is for everyone
Like an afterthought
but we are getting a lot of work and design etc
Yea Ik and they still have a month to tweek things out
exactly 😃
the multiplayer is what people are looking for anyways
generally thats what's good
but i'd love to see them try out that learning AI for a battlefield game in the future
I just need one more Kukri puzzle piece
yeah defo! i posted a topic on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Battlefield/comments/9ovrvk/so_after_watching_the_war_stories_reveal/
a lot of comments, some are complete shite haha but some are not
rip
Like... War Stories is practically a side feature but you get skins from it~
similar some people are against single player because bf is MP only...
I hope when The Last Tiger comes out we can dress our Tiger tanks like that one
rip chris.. i know the feeling lol
❤ sweet dreams
16 minutes til home.. maybe get some battlefield in 😃
Has anyone tested how much difference the silencers make from another player's perspective?
I'm still unclear on if there are more SP war stories coming out with Tides of War at all, or if these 4 are the only SP for this game?
we should have 4 stories
with X amount of missions inside each
judgeing by how bf1 was done
Yo, can you not switch me to the enemy team after wiping the floor with their asses?
I spot a flamethrower trooper in Tirailleur and the Under no flag mission
Guess that's another tides of war weapon
I dont want to see them working on more war stories
add me on origin my nick kjass1337
in fact, I dont even want to see war stories at all (might be unpopular opinion)
Eh, it's a freebie. The ones in BF1 were better than I expected for a MP game.
Well the skiing Norwegian Resistance mission looks like ass 
bump into and clip through this guy and he never turns and shoots even lol
French soldiers looks like the best narrative so far but it looks like a wave defense again
in the end I just want good multiplayer anyway I guess
I think its a waste to spend resources on single player no one really cares too much for
all the modeling work could have meant another map or two, extra voice acting for another faction etc
as someone who doesnt play sp thats a good idea, but idk how many people are likeme
And here i am, excited for single player.
Its fun.
the thing is, DICE will never have the resource to put together a compelling single player campaign while not compromising multiplayer
So we get like a 5 hour frostbite engine tech demo
FUCK YES, FINALLY GOT THE KUKRI!!!
Seems like the campaign is getting hate, like a lot
internet will be internet
Unfortunately it seems to be the same ol' sneaking around open maps against braindead AI
bfv has singeplayer, is going to add battle royale later, people shit on both... cod gets rid of single player, adds battle royal, people say nothing
they shat on it, but now ppl are praising them for getting rid of it
since BR is getting a good reception
Yep
i heard complaints, but not to the same degree that bf is getting
could be that im not involved in many cod conversations though
This is probably the most violent release Battlefield ever
i dont recall any other bf release getting flak
CoD is kinda getting a renaissance
other than beta
Both single player and chasing BR are mistakes imo
with more approval among core gamers
its the way it should be played imo
But it is an option not included
but of course, you got those solo streamers that want to show their 20 kill game
everyone on reddit is threating mass protest for squad only BR
I just wonder tho what BR is gonna be besides a glorified Squad Deathmatch
"youre adding a game mode? WAIT ITS ONLY FOR SQUADS
"
its literally more content than the last bf, at no extra charge, and people still threaten to mass protest
cause of stupidity
self entitled basement dwellers
i assume/hope most of these edge lords are under 20, but its sad knowing not all of them are.
You can still dislike the game tho
Sometimes I don’t even know why they hate the game
Just make sure you can distinguish outrage from dislike
in the end, majority of people who don't like something just silently move away from it
the game itself is great
the beta showed that
plays better than anything before it
and yet, a lot of people want to act like gameplay isnt king in a game all of a sudden
again, self entitles basement dwellers
Kinda true
and i get a majority of gamers are not saying anything
but its so annoying that the voiced minority are so fucking vocal
this is why i assume they are mostly under 20, just chasing a meme scenario
Not trying to say anything but I think BFV will died more quickly than BF1
as long as theres enough people to play full matches ill be happy
my group of friends are on wow atm, so i think we will jump in when br drops
so as long as i can play both modes im happy
Battlefield v will still sell at least millions of copies
^
Yep
in order of impact of loss of sales ill say its: rdr2, cod, lack of interest, reddit edge lords boycotting
I’m not sure if it will be long lasting but I do know that it will still sell lots of copies
I swear to gods, when BFV dropped, my friends will keeps complaining about MTX for gods know how many times
MTX?
Microtransaction
arent they cosmetic though?
Yea and they will still complain
imo, this is shaping up to be the best bf, as long as youre not a sensitive bitch
CoD random box weapons: praise
My friends said BF3,4 are full of MTX and because of the battlepacks. Isn’t it like optional? Like they doesn’t force you to buy it? Right?
i didnt even know bf3/4 had mtx...
and shortcut kits
Microbucks
i just played the game, if anything i felt like the flow of gear was a lot
granted bf4 unlocks were really grating to go thru
wasnt i like get certain kills using this to get that?
But, if you don’t buy any of the shortcuts packs, battlepacks, then ’s the MTX
Cause getting a Kobra dot on a gun you like was a gamble unless you kill with it a lot
than kill a lot, its not like anything like that gave an advantage right?
some gear you could only get through battlepacks but it was like green laser instead of red kind of stuff If I remember correctly
Yep, green lasers, Tri dot lasers and asymetric optic or certain suppressors
yea i remember the scenario @brazen glade mentioned
camo patterns are debatable on advantages since there was that in 4 too.
I swear to god, I failed to see the MTX when everybody is screaming BF3,4 are full of MTX
and with the 40+ weapons it felt like you were forced to grind through a lot of shit to be at an optimal setup
like i said, i dont recall them and never felt at a disadvantage
with no segregation and DLC i think V will have more staying power over 1
Hell, right now I got like 100+ battlepacks in 3,4, Harline, 1. In total
i got the game late so idk what version i got or what it came with
1 didnt do it for me at all, literally 40 hours or so
bf1 wack imo
map design leads to a lot of camping, vehicles are slightly op, gunplay and movement pretty standard
in BF4 i didnt even notice i had battlepacks
every 20 levels or so i would randomly check
and i would open like 80 of them
map design in bf4 were worse for me
i loved levolutions
4 was my favorite in a long time
and everyone was just a one man army going everywhere they wanted to at will
4 is definantly my favourite game so far
and im very old
I guess the flir 2x was a tad of an advantage since it was only in battlepacks
Bf1 had lots of hype and great marketing but didn’t have the best gameplay
i liked 3 more, but that was my intro game to bf, and i played it on ps3 with friends
bf4 i played alone on pc
battlefield v has good gameplay, and lots of hype, with mostly good marketing
Bfv has low hype and poor marketing from the initial reveal but has some awesome changes
yea i solo queued a ton for bf4 yet had buddies for 1 and still hated it
I like bf2 and 2142 but their progression was much more punishing
bf4 i played with friends, and by myself and it was the funnest game i had played in years
yea bf1 i had a few friends, but we all just didnt like it, even though we literally just played bfv and loved it
it was the first battlefield game i had played
because before that i was a COD MW3 kid
i went from mw2, to bf3
the mod potential of 1942 was the best, I wish they embraced it with the later games
bf4 is basically fancytech
I mean battlefield has to pull something off since the sales for cod came in recently and it was reported it made 500$ million dollars on launch weekend
might as well be 2143
bfv is fucked coming in after rdr2
Lol
i went from LEGO games, to PvZ garden warfare, to MW3, to BF4, to overwatch, and then to bf1
I left the million out, correction on my part
I’m a simple man, I see the game I like, I hype for it
why is anyone putting rdr2 in any release competition with BF?
because they are games, games cost money, money is not finite, theres competition
because their mothers only let them have one console game for the holidays
lol
yeah but they are marketed for different consumers
doesnt mean different consumers only buy that specific game
i dont know anyone not getting BF just because RD is coming out
i never understand why people think different games dont compete
I’m hoping to build a twitch channel on battlefield games soon
like everyone has all the money and time to buy an play everything
because i talk to humans 😛
most people that i know will play bfv wont enjoy rdr2
well there is also that world war 3 game launching like tomorrow
they do compete, just not nearly as much as two games in the same category
yea i mean it would be like if Destiny 2 came out same as BFV, it's "competition" but even BLOPS aint competition
@brazen glade it sucks tbh
most people i know that are on console are getting rdr 2 no matter what, and they will be playing it till they dont want to, not because bfv came out
BLOPS4 coming out almost made me get it while waiting for V but it releasing sooner definitely did not influence my purchase of V
does RDR2 even have staying power as a game or is it just a single play through?
but alot of people are still going to buy battlefiekd
and that directly in turn leads to less sales for other games, no matter how you split it
not saying its going to gut sales
but its gonna dent at the very least
neither do i
those of us that buy V on release will see 1 million new players on christmas, happens every year
but its just the matter of the scenario
fodder
It's also hard to recover from a botched marketing attempt since first impressions are important
i cant wait to destroy all the kids that get BFV on christmas
Nyph, i think the problem with this conversation is you can argue it "affects" sales and that is accurate but most people are only willing to have a debate about absolutes ;P
the bad part is they need to release something that hypes the real meat of BF
tis true panda
the trailer wasnt even that bad tbh
i mean, it was ok for what it was but it did zero for me
it diddnt deserve the hate that it recieved
i wanted guts and glory and yes, im biased wanting men dominating that front. I dont want to see a woman getting blown to bits.
tbh if they just made it into a standard WW2 with frostbite2 it would've gotten hype
i know this game will be good
I don't care and I like the alternative perspective but that's not a majority feeling
if they show a woman stepping on a land mine it would be an OMG WHAT
probably one of the best BFs
a man would just be, hahaha he done
@pure veldt I didn't think of it that way... just sounds depressing
more people will buy it if they get reccomended it
^
@solid hinge I feel like the trailer misrepresented battlefield which is why I thought it was bad though the graphics are beautiful
and we need equal part explosion of sexes
lol
I think they should’ve explained it better
i dont want to see women in distress and getting bloody shot to hell and blown up, shrug
but I saw that DICE was trying to do something with the game
doesnt really bother me same as it doesnt bother me for a guy in a game
personally i think everything was great with the trailer
it showed us cool new mechanics
it showed us customizaton
it showed us the new graphics
it showed us so much cool stuff
The trailer wasn’t the best for me but the more I learned about the game, the more I was interested in it
actually i pressed shift+enter after my first line
bring on the multiplayer info!
it was just weird that the trailer was kind of a mp trialer, and i was confused and thought it was in game gameplay, the girl respawned, i didnt know what it was showing
hi
i expect sp trailer first, and they threw me off with that
hi
ih
they just have an uphill fight for getting the launch correct, and I wish them all the best
They’re in battle with cod, red dead, and fallout right now
But I think the new marketing strategy is drawing more people into the game
and they are the only game with "controversy" around it
That too
What do we think about the controversies battlefield v went through? I’m interested in hearing
i think dice wanted to tell a different story than the standard man war we have played hundreds of times before
they overdid it and sensitive basement dwellers said dice had an agenda and are suppressing white men
dice backed that women were in the war and its accurate, called people crying foul uneducated, petty people turned that statement into dice saying ALL gamers are ignorant
I definitely think the accept or don’t buy got taken out of context
Yeah
It was taken by the majority for people to F off
out of context or not, dice is right, we consumers say it ALL THE TIME
its commong logic
dont like it, dont buy it
I mean, that's common sense
but since an official said it, they are gonna turn that shit on its head
Yeah
Afternoon yall
people twisted into ea saying fuck off
idk why they did it, but if i was in their position i would have said it
you cant deal with people
some people*
oooh yeah this
so you just have to tell them like it is at times
dev talk will be about authenticity right
EA still had negativity on them from the battlefront 2 controversy
tomorrow
you guys are the only people ive ever heard to actually not misrepresent DICEs words
its funny though, "accept it or don't buy it" actually turned to dice/ea turning down the customizations a bit
the ONE thing that was sour for me, was that story about the dad and his daughter
You guys are the only people I’ve heard not hate on battlefield v from the controversy
that was just not fitting
lol thats what u say as a dev
@solid hinge idc about politics, especially when its about my hobby of gaming
if the game is good ill buy it
True
The one thing that spiraled out of control was the amount of SJW comments I read after the initial trailer
if dice literally pointed me out and said "bob dylan is an idiot, dont buy our game" id buy it because i like it
if its a political game like hearts of iron 4 then obv politics is good
but bfv
ehm nahhh
I also think the channels that make negative content about gaming made the situation a good place for trolls to hang
lol bfv is hated cuz of youtubers
most of them are just pandering to their audience for views
i thought it was obvious
these bfv sucks vids can get 500k views
on a channel with like 5k subs
basically
so they say
a bunch of meme lords trying to turn this into a meme because they have nothing else to do
I think most of these you-tubers go through the games to make something negative about it
and say incorrect stuff
about history
like söderlund did to his daughter
its all about money
also the: ''BFV pre-orders are very low'' videos. They dont even consider that Origin Premier is a thing now which is a big reason why a lot of people dont pre-order the game anymore
or that rdr2 and cod are absolutely massive games
This is the one time I feel bad for the developers working on the gameplay portion of battlefield v like it’s not a bad game, lots of improvements made
well pretty much everyone saw that
They actually took community feedback from the issues with battlefield 1
i thought this year was bfs time to shine
everyone saw it, but you know people are going to ignore it and say sales are down because of the controversy
gameplay wise, bf5 is very nice so far. just the fact that they murdered themselves with their trailer and teaser vids
Söderlund left the company though
ik
is that the guy who said dont buy?
yes
He could’ve done more damage to battlefield v than he did
the guy who got 25 mil dollars
eh
He left at a good time
ea could have spent those 25 million on improving bfv
but nah
that bastard got it lol
ik
if they do it all now the next game will be dull
but they could have done it better
I mean I’m happy they’re doing everything they can to fix battlefield v before launch like removing Söderlund and toning customization down
they are making it good now, and great next time
Investors lost trust in him probably especially when the preorder sales came in
Pretty sure he left and they offered him a bunch of money to stay
i think he got secretly fired
?

that will be such a harrassment
