Ok
This isn't the channel to be finding people to play with. Use the LFG channels above for that!
Есть Русские , кто на боксе катает ?
@graceful chasm english
which bf game should i play now 4 5 or 1
@sharp peak thats your choice
hmmm
5 is OK
4 is fun
1 is my favourite
the only thing about 4 is that there arent many servers
Tbh 5 man squads tho
I think 4 man squads are more balanced tbh
4 is better
6
It will be sad for the 7th squad of 2 players.
To be fair there's usually 25 squads with 1 or 2 peeps each
Those are the braindeads
I miss it here
bf5 should go crossplay
that'd be cool but provide an unfair advatnage
advantage*
maybe decide if u want to play with it or not
also how do I get the MPX, the chainlink things if no one plays chainlink
It could be possbile for BFV to be on PS5
because its some of its maps are eligible for more players
like 70 or 100
Plus queue times would be short
Which is always a good thing
I think I'm just going to buy both battlefield 1 and 5
They don't have queue?
I mean if it’s even numbers then 5 man squads would be nice
Server browser m8
Oh
I finally got the Stuka B-2 to level 4
More severs then ha
Plus I'm always playing when no one else is
Just use server browser man the queue system will put you in a game thats only 1/4 full
I don't have the game yet I didn't know bf had no queue
I'm getting it like tmr tho
Nice. Id recommend playing 1 first
Ok bet
V is faster paced and it has a steeper skill curve
That's my type of game then. I love fast paced n skill
Well run it then. 1 is definitely more casual and forgiving to noobs tho
Is BF V included or not with Basic? I swear it switches back and forth every time the client crashes
We never do many Xbox giveaways
@fossil heron a little
when I try to install or Locate Game, any Battlefield which can't decide if it's Basic or Premium, Origin crash loop
are 1 and V basic or premium?
Well v is basically basic since the free dlcs and all
It does has year 2 but that’s just free stuff
so broken. "❗No longer included in Origin Access Basic. Then on game page, ✅ Included with Basic
i can't upload screenshot. it seems BF V is no longer Basic. But says it is and lets me install. breaking Origin.
looks like i'm playing BF V right now. maybe Basic ✅
100 BFC
@uneven hollow even tho i already seen this, watching it again is moving
@brittle zealot
im a rebel
1942 old so bfv mo betta
idc about history or accuracy
its justs whats ever fun to me, i never played 1942 and its hella dated
Tbh kinda wanna kamikaze an American ship in bfv tho

Indeed for the emperor @brittle zealot
i dont think you could pick unbiasedly
but even tho i prefer modern over past, i'd go with bfv
i played mw and i hate it
guys i have a doubt can someone clarify it?
my childhood dream is to play battle field 1942 with discord , are people still playing it?
idk
imo it wouldnt
vietnam oddly specific and would get boring
and i would prefer fictional over historical or historical based
but that just me
the enemy team is nothing but recons with at rifles
Waddup
https://youtu.be/jQd-UeO6k5g
@brittle zealot lol loved the commanders voice. At the start
What
can any1 help,i keep getting disconnected from the match after 5 min
Anyone know when the community games update will come out?
Damm, until today i could finally have gold to be able to play BFV and ngl, it feels sad that the game is dead
Its not even dead lol
Try to play some hardline, then you know how a dead battlefield looks like 
i want more camoflauge outfits
for german and british
how come brits dont have like the bush wookie camo
Day 20 of no Fliegerfaust related incidents
#1FliegerDodger
I never really used the fliegerfaust, it would only come out if a plane was destroying me, other than that I would forget about it
yea because thats what its for
I got 66 to 9 with 16k worth of score, the most the other blueberry had was 25 to 9
With under 10k score
What even is this game?
Its not even dead lol
@solid carbon i meant it in the no updates way
I mean
You can same the same with team fortress 2
No updates for 1000 days yet the game is still alive
Tru
It still gets updates, if Localization Files updates count as anything.
bfv is still getting updates though lmao
Really? 
how do you drain the tunnels in operation underground
you cant
they look pretty drained in my current game
It randomly drains
ah
fg42 is just german bar kek

but both the fg and bar are my top weapons
I use faction correct weapons
except for some gadgets
I sometimes do
idk some factions and classes their only weapons are shit
like there isnt really any american sniper rifle
like the krag wasnt used in ww2
I dont even play recon
recon is one of my main classes
If only class archetype wasnt hindered by the setting
Recons were supposed to be able to use suppressed smg as primary
That would be nifty
I'd like to see these class archetypes return for bf6 and pretty sure it wouldnt be hindered by the setting of the game
i mean, i think people say “it was supposed to do X” but that was just an early class design concept
like it never made it to a playable build of the game that was seen outside of the in-house testing, if that
i don’t really see archetypes making all that much sense in terms of weapon availability
like, if you’ve got a class of guns that only one archetype of a class can use, and another type that it’s other archetype can use, what’s stopping them being separate classes altogether really
i think, have combat roles (but better/more than bfv) and maybe some all class weapons potentially, but archetypes are essentially just combat roles with weapon locks
Agressive recon with the silenced smgs and garotte spotting mechanic would be interesting
garotte spotting?
I assume through a takedown like in hardline you can interrogate the victim
oh that makes more sense than what i was thinking lol
i was like “isn’t a garotte a bit of wire you wrap round someone’s neck lol”
So for assault you could have the light assault perk of extra healing with ammo but also maybe something like extra ammo for launchers
i think stuff that plays into the different weapon classes given to each class
yeah, stuff that shifts up the amount of health and ammo you get
For support i would definitely do incressed healing, double ammo box
i think a “first aid training” spec/combat role for assault or support could be cool, speed up squad revives
Yeah that too
I like specialisations but make them not such a big upgrade
I dont even mind specs when it comes to infantry
yeah specs are decent enough, i just feel like locking them into combat roles actually opens it up a bit more
Vehicles are a problem understandably
they should have done more combat roles. but nope.avi 😦
eg you get a flak specialisation which reduces incoming explosive damage, but you could have a “demolishionist” combat role for Assault or something where you take reduced explosive damage but get an extra grenade or explosive gadget
They shouldn't lock armament to vehicles and make them available from the start
Yea
Specialised roles, extra ammo for support ironically would be useless
honestly something similar to how Squadrons will do it could be interesting for vehicles
What did they do there
a
not in as much detail obviously but everything is kinda a sidegrade as opposed to direct upgrades
Yeah, for tanks better engine and survivbility
there’s more stuff that actually alters the function of the vehicle rather than “yeah you get twice as many MGs/rockets”
this upgrading stuff has always been a bit of an issue in bf yeah. you were fucked in bf3 if you wanted to plane cause everyone is using guided shit and you hadn't unlocked flares yet ;D in bfv planes feel a bit lackluster until you upgraded it to level 6. if upgrades were more like sidegrades where it just altered your loadout etc that would have been neat yeah
just remove upgrading vehicles entirely and replace it with unlockable combat roles
i think have it so there’s trade offs for everything when you spec into them, and you kinda just switch stuff out
i guess more like attachments than upgrades
Is that the KE7 ewwww
Why is it ewww?
Its just a cheat
How?
Well I think its just a too fast tim e to kill and it does too much damage
@brave coral you were right about the garotte being a wire around someones neck
saying a gun is a cheat because you personally think it does too much damage
despite it having i think the exact same damage model as most lmgs
it’s mid tier
more like meh-tier
Im told the lewis is pretty decent
it doesn’t suck exactly but it’s not like a super good pick
i mean lewis is actually kinda bad with accuracy and stuff i think but it makes up for it with ammo capacity
personally the only bad lmg is the type 97 lol
I actually keep forgetting that gun exists
I don't even know what it looks like
Lewis being the really braindead magdump weapon is kinda alright though
At least you can suck with it and still be useful
that's ok because it deals higher damage
The ls would do really well with lightened stock
Its a strong gun in comp, when the fg42 kicks too much for what you need
Plus doggo you haven't even fought someone who can use the stg 1-5/fg42 or the m1907/bar
Fuck the AA
Jesus.. 6th server in a row with a cheater
7th server.. about 40 out of 64 with 160ping+
Imagine having cheaters
sorry if this is a dumb question but if i get battlefield on origin can i play with steam players?
or will it make me play with people who have it on origin only
@gray glade Origin just minimizes itself whenever i try to launch battlefield 5
So this chi ri ended up pissing me off, then when I go to kill it I end up murdering everyone in the point
it was working a few hours ago now it just doesnt want to launch
Love the garand
@solid hinge restart computer, if same issue, repair battlefield files in origin
yep
ive tried all that, reinstalled origin and battlefield 5 all together, and reinstalled my gpu drivers
and also repaired battlefield within origin
did you delete your bfv configs?
where would that be?
if you do that they should re-add themselves after, though your settings will be reset too
hmm let me check
np
C:\Users\ "yourname"\Documents\Battlefield V\settings
instead of deleting them you can move them to desktop
in case you change your mind
soo delete the whole folder?
nah i'd just cut and paste the files themselves to a folder on desktop
and then shut down origin and restart it and try start battlefield again
shouldnt i restart pc
if you want to, i dont hitnk its needed but why not
ill take a second
if problem remains i suggest contact support tbh, unless someone here has any more suggestions
okay

What are your thought on the sunmer update and the content that has come?
Is it better compare to the update before the update
😀
@solid hinge you could check the event log, surely it says what happened
but might be easier to contact support
event log from what/where?
i gotta go, so i cant help guiding it but if something crashes etc, it usually says why, or what happened in the event log
@solid hinge what’s up?
So
I ended up bagging a sniper that was trying to shoot me and I ended up making them leaving the game
Oof
NOOT NOOT
Ahhhh pengu
@prime pine
I DIDN'T FUCK IT UP AND YOU DIDN'T EVEN NOOT ME BACK
Lol
NOOT NOOT
Hey
Hey
Ha
I really want to kill the AA but I'm too shit to get a good stike at them
Fuck
There are no planes on provence tho
Im gonna be trying to make some clips for my friend skuxx cause I wanna do a dualtage with him

I eat chille with a knife
I eat cornflakes with a fork
I eat curry with a knife
I eat noodles with my hands
I eat with my mouth 
Ew what
Fg42 baby
Wish I could use that gun properly
Its not an easy gun to get into
Its a comicly large spoon
@amber pine try less vertical recoil for the fg42 if you want to learn it
it is
Ah ok thanks
Noooo
''sure but only a spoon full'' he said
Eh
Its dice, what else would you expect?
I've veen accused of using a cronus

@solid hinge it's MADWARDOG with a zero ok?
ok

ohh
i got u

MADWARDOG0?
Ye
Cool
Your welcome
@gray saffron no, it's MADWARD0G, It's an 0 ( zero) instead of o,
someone took my ign so I had to improvise
;D i was messing with you ;3 but sucks yeah
Ooo , 
i tried making an email recently and they hjjacked my name 😠
hardest 2 days of my life trying to come up with a decent name
Oooh, that's the worst, mostly when you can't have you nickname in game,bcz it's already taken 
uhuh 😦
Man I just reinstalled battlefield 3 it's so f****** good
though i normally don't that issue, i do have the issue where some games don't allow the most important part that should be respected. the hyphen 😫
true
bf3 is great
@gray saffron dude you alright?
i am, are you? 😄
Yeah bf3 especially that tank mission still give me goosebumps
Im fine, i wanted to send you a messaged but I couldn't cause you removed me
wut
oh must have happened during the cleanup of my friendslist xd
there were so many random names in there
im soowwy
Haha thwte finr
TIL you can't get messaged from people that you removed as friend tho xd
hello people
Hello slayer of dragons, ras
i just opened the game and saw it very nice tbh
it’s kinda neat
feel like reddit is probably finding a reason to complain though lol
“smh bottle opener? give me three soviet maps instead thx”
i love how some dont understand that there are sections on dice that are working on other stuff in case they are done
yup
“ah yes time to get mad that the cosmetics team made this outfit instead of making a map in the same space of time”
Is the feldgrau too clean
i mean the outfit is good but isn't the person suppose to wear a gas mask canister
idk
Hanz get zee water me-lon.
Oh my god th ecosmetic team should have worked on new guns instead of cosmetics!
"Its almost as if im a dumb entitled fuck in the battle field community"

"Its almost as if im a dumb entitled fuck in the battle field community"
90% of the battlefield subreddit
Theyre a bunch of r,etarded fucking rands
i do wonder if at some point they’ll release those couple mostly finished guns in the files
but i don’t expect it and i understand their reasoning to not
i mean... one of them is the lanchester... literally an irl clone of the mp28
but the patchett/sterling could have been nice just because it’s a cool looking gun
no need to be sorry tbh
bruh wel gun should be illegal
?
it’s a decent enough smg but it’s not like super amazing
The Type 2-A should be illegal
no weapon should be illegal
The Type 2-A should be illegal
@rotund leaf I like that gun but to be effective you have to get extended mag but for MP28 and Welgun both are good from the start. Type 2A is like a minigun
nah, you can use the 2a reasonably well with the standard mag
MG42 would be more fitting to a minigun
tbh i run with light bolt on the 2a if i do equip it lmao
All weapons should be illegal 
feels slightly less cheese than 50 round mags, idk
M1 garand is the epic
Yup
M1 garand is the first gun where i maxed out all the upgrades
Runner
mine was the bren ;3
well actually.. it's the first that i got golden
considering there's a ton of guns in front of it before you get the bren ;D
Reeeeeee type 2 a has a 1000 rpm its op xd
bren was the first support weapon i got gold for sure
Reeeeee planes are op buff aa
Yeah kill it
"Why aren't planes dogfighting each other, BUFF AA"
i think like... the third i got in general? after the stg44 and sten
“why do planes target AA when going on ground runs? BUFF AA”
Think my second was the mp40
Dude like legit, I want to give those people on reddit so much shit by making a post telling them how fucking stupid they are
I want to start a flame war and prove how fucking stupid they all are
Iwo Jima is the best breakthrough map
Ye
100% true
@gray saffron I know, I've seen your videos with bren , pretty good actually
I feel so bad now lmao
I shot at a guy planting tnt and I cuased him to blow himself up as he panicked
someone yesterday managed to snipe my ammo crate before it even hit the ground lol
It saved you
hi
tries to participate in a close game and grabs a crocodile
server boots me out
What a fucking joke man
Is asking for a working game too much to ask for, from dice? LOL
yes
Then again
They couldn't even get a working team balancer and viable anti cheat even at the end so LOL
back to bf1 
Snipers are shit anyways

Snipers are shit anyways
i feel attacked
Like dude if you can use them thats fine
honestly the main thing i’d want to improve on bfv snipers is giving them straight pull
An automatic is gonna pander you to the objective
Yeah
Straight pull is literally what you need to make them less shit
the straight pull made the ross very effective in bf1
yeah
Id be an advocate for straight pull no matter how annoying they'd make them
like, sweet spot would be welcome but realistically all you need is straight pull imo
gewer M.95 had it
gewer M.95 had it
no
that’s kinda why stuff like the ZH is so dominant, because you can track targets easily between shots
And the fire rate is so high
Shut up
@prime pine are you talking to yourself
just giving the Enfield straight pull would make it very competitive for mid range sniping honestly
Should i get bf3 today?
like it’s already decent, but that would make it actually useful
good game, that one
So get bf3?
Should i get bf3 today?
@dry geyser not too many servers
like, the jungle carbine is reasonably similar
@fossil robin really
do you think we lost vietnam cause we didnt announce the raid in chat
Ok maybe
Like dr
Maybe give the recon bolties straight pull when they have a 3x
Or just straight pull when 6 x as well
hmmmm
like in bf3
tbh i think just give it for all magnifications
and also improve the iron sight animations
Not make them so tilty
the iron sights on rifles are too thicc in bfv
If that makes sense dr
like the only benefit to using them is that supposedly you can track your targets with them, but half of them you just put half the gun in front of your crosshair
I say this as a bayonet charger, fuck the people who bayonet charge astheir first thought of mind
lol, now you mention it i had a guy doing that
like fair enough, it’s a meme but also why are you trying to charge an entire squad lmao
i was using the m37 so if i heard “bastaaaarrrrrrrrdss” i’d just snap to that direction lol
Yeah you often just hear it
Im a bit sad we have no shorts for the japanese
Come to think of it
Not entirely shorts but... we've got sandals :p
S H O R T S
I want shortshorts for females
Im still bummed they never did a swimwear bundle for summer :(
add a bikini for females so redditors will lose their minds
Well you know what would be nice...? Adjustable sever settings...
You know what would be better? Teambalance
vietnam raid
attack of the rice farmers
lol

They're in the TREES, MAN! IN THE TREES!
Then you hear the bushes behind you laughing MENACINGLY
Ah yes. Pacific storm
Battlefield Vietnam is a damn good game
The fun ends when bushes are starting to shoot you
my favourite thing about it is definitely flying around in a UH-1 in gunship configuration, blasting Fortunate Son while comitting war crimes
Ah yes, the 2nd best Creedence song
Ride of the Valkyries and Riders on the Storm are amazing to fly to aswell
Danger Zone is the best song for flying
I just wish more Battlefield games than Vietnam allowed you to import custom music and play it over on a car radio or helicopter speakers
BC2: Vietnam does have a car radio, but...
no custom music importing
Damn, playing BF Vietnam while listening to Agent Orange would be fookin amazing
unless you use community made mods ofc
Bad Company 2 modding scene is small, but dedicated
I really like the explosion lights mod that adds dynamic lights to muzzle flashes, explosions, sparks etc.
there are a few mods for it, but it's not quite on the same level as the Refractor engine games yet mod tools wise
the last time i tried to play bad company it was full with modded servers and cheaters, no fun at all
I am talking mostly about clientside mods
like skins, color grading presets etc.
and also a bit about custom maps
Im still bummed they never did a swimwear bundle for summer :(

When i was swimming today in bf5 I realised I couldn't breathe underwater as everything got red
ćæt
i turned on DirectX 12 on battlefield and the game just wouldnt launch anymore; i also tried turning it off via the settings file but it doesnt work, is there a fix? DX12 gave me 20fps more btw
you can start the game now? @solid hinge
this morning you couldn't start it at all afaik
@gray glade i reinstalled it and i found the issue
apparently it was DX12
thats making it crash for no reason
oh i see
im currently reinstalling it again
well its still installing but now it wouldnt relaunch again
all because of DX12 lol
although it gave me 20fps yesterday idk what exactly happened
deleting and changing the save files for the settings wouldnt work either
Why does the giveaway keep resetting?
What u mean
you only have to react once
Idk, BF hardline is at 3 reactions.
its bugged but you can still enter, just click the reactions once
I’m scared it won’t count it, so I’ll just react everytime it removes my reaction.
@solid hinge yeah just
Buy a console
Problem solved
XD
i gave away my ps4 since ps5 is coming out soon anyways but thats a whole different topic, i do miss the convience though
how to play a tank on battelfield v?
I overheard staff at eb saying they wont be surprised if they announce the release date of the next console was next year
@placid mural do you mean how to spawn into one, or like a tanker guide?
how to spawn into one
if you want to spawn one, you need to wait for one to become available in the spawn overview screen on a map that has tank spawns
how can it happen?
Ooooo armoury update in 5 days
A fresh set of tanks will spawn at a friendly base when the round starts, to the max
there’s a little gear symbol and a number next to your team’s base spawn, it’ll often say 0 because tanks are fairly popular but if a tank dies than it will be available again after a certain timer
When one is destroyed at any time, they will repsawn after 90 seconds
5 days? great 
Exceptions include mercury
Where they take 180 seconds
And on Narvik breakthrough, they are not immediately available for the attacking force and when the sector as not been taken, one may be nabbed.
why do the war stories get stucked on the end?
getting a tank in BFV is often quite difficult, on breakthrough anyway
ppl hog those things like never before
still there's a Bf hardline giveaway yes?
Yes
okay thanks boys
good luck
Have a good day sir
I hope hardline gets popular again
i hope im gonna get hardline key because i've never played it
and im kinda corious ngl
Honestly its probably my favourite battlefield
my fav is bf3 because of campaign and bf4 because of multi ngl
Aye same here
and BC2
theres just no bullshit straight to the chase action
and its not annoyingly serious
i also really love the gunplay
i gotta try it i hope im gonna get a key i've heard good and bad opinions about this part
and the whole cops vs robbers idea brought SO MANY awesome gamemodes
blood money ❤❤
soo im sceptical to it
There just isnt anything like it
i wanna rent a server on there
Bad investment there
just host different gamemodes every day
okay guys imma go to play some War Thunder have a nice time and good luck
see you soon
o7
Bye brother
(psssst if somebody would like to invite me on steam to play or just to chat link in my bio or if battfield my nick on origin is Le_91_moment)
Go to lfg
I just want BF6 to be good
We all do
Yeah Ik
I hope it takes a bit of skill to actually play the game
Like I enjoyed Bf1 but it's sooooooooo casual so easy to play
Bfv no just no
It could of been good but they dipped on the game
I disliked the game until the pacific where it eas some what enjoyable but then they made stupid changes to the ttk multiple times etc
Anyways I 🙏 that Dice really push themselves to produce a quality Battlefield game, they need to be on top again.....take cods crown.
Does anyone know what the average amount of kills is in concuest?
Depends on your skill level
so i take it the team balance system that was promised is not coming to bfv seeing as i just got into a match 32 vs 3 people and match not started yet .....
Damn that's good man
But I was just wondering what it would be lmao
it depends avarage 30+ kills
When do you all think we'll get the first teaser for BF6
damn I’m hyped for bf6
I'm hoping the marketing sorta changes
somtimes i can reach 100 and 20 deaths then other days 17-23 when cheaters are online
Like a teaser for BF6 in November of this year
somtimes i can reach 100 and 20 deaths then other days 17-23 when cheaters are online
@reef mountain 100
Then in Feb-March then one more teaser before the game is revealed
it’ll probably be more like march/april ish is the first teaser
on bf1 i once got a 204-7 witht he martini iron sights lol
it’ll probably be more like march/april ish is the first teaser
@brave coral probably I just can't see them doing nothing for a year
on bf1 i once got a 204-7 witht he martini iron sights lol
pics or it didn´t happen
i’m guessing like frontlines or operations and the round went on for ages
within the average round length 200 kills isn’t really attainable though
most i’ve ever got is 100 in one match in bfv, and that was using an armoured car in breakthrough


join #00810

is BF V leaving Basic? says No Longer Included, but still works
a 1 year hiatus wont help
€€€€€€€€€#°§#€
it could be good, who knows, but I think they really have to dig in this time
Cod doing trash games and they are not dead yet so dice can do trash and survive
Yeah but still overrated unfortunately
Annual recycling
Appartenttly if BF6 is a failure then DICE could shut down
and heck would be loose
I swear its EA's fault
The entire franchise is on the line
dice absolutely cannot afford another fuck up
If bf6 flops, boom, battlefield's gone forever
But I don't want dice to go 😔
yeaaah... no
something that speaks against bf6 being good is all the employee drops they got
i’m guessing this is another of baguette’s “leaks”
managers all over the place leaving the company
it’s not like bf5 was some complete economic failure, it still sold very well, people just go ‘haha bfv bad’
I like bfv it just has a lack of content
you don’t shut down one of your biggest studios because some people on reddit said one of the games wasn’t good
Or it took too long for content to come out
I think battlefield 6 is going to be a banger though
what if they tried another historical theme with 6
pretty sure BFV sold much worse than their past 3 games
Probably
last number i heard was 7 million, but lets add 1-2 million to that
@gray glade from what i heard it’s only outsold by bf1
also remember that BFV was on sale basically at release
it’s still fairly difficult to not turn a profit when you’re selling millions of copies of a game even for $40
yeah im not saying it didn't turn a profit
but i do not think it sold well enough for EA's standards
but that’s how people act, as if it’s some huge economic blow to the company
they said they anticipated more launch copies to be sold, but that’s literally just based on some statistics and guesswork
again, people act like one game underselling the initial predictions means the studio will be shut down
I just wish we got to see more of bfv like when the Pacific came out it looked like the game was finally turning around
@solid hinge devs were too late ig
But then there wasn't any else really
but honestly I don't blame them
@earnest matrix probably
bf6 is an all hands on deck thing for dice I'm guessing
Yeah that's what I'm thinking because I feel like they'll want to distance themselves from bfv as much as possible
yeah, possibly just to ensure that it has a good launch
the pacific showed that dice can perform if they know where they are going
but i think with BFV they didnt have a clue
Exactly
Idk BFV is pretty fun in my opinion. I just wish they had eastern front and maybe Italians
last time they launched a game on a new generation of consoles the game was borderline unplayable for a couple months, that’s not the best look
At the beginning of bfv's lifespan, dice was just kind of winging it
thats why they aren't releasing the game until like october-november next year at the earliest
Yeah I love the game but I just wanted more stuff as well @strong island
It lost its footing at the start
EA said in the earnings call like half a year ago that they wanted to release bf6 when new consoles had a sizeable audience
Do you think they'll bring them to current gen
Hmmm
Yeah true. If it started out better than would have gone better. Just a negative look on game since launch trailer
I think halo infinite will be available on xbone so
the main problem with the launch trailer was that it was so unclear
Nobody had any fucking clue what dice was going for
I honestly don’t care about the “crazy cosmetics”, but I wish they had a “realism” setting where all player models would be historically accurate. Like let’s say u are a history buff you could turn this on and only default class looks
Ikr like at the time I was excited just because it was a new battlefield game but looking back it was pretty bad
Like the realistic models mod for bf1?
The stock German clothes for bfv weren't very accurate
Instead of wool, it had a canvas texture
which was kind of weird
Yeah but better than asian woman using an m1 garand in Norway
Lmao
German uniforms were wool, but it's only a small detail
and they did release will uniforms later on
*wool
why the fuck can’t I play on Xbox without bfv crashing every 2 games
Idk why people flip over that. However the Nordlys war story was aggrivating
It was certainly.. Interesting
I think a near future setting could work for the next battlefield
If they want to have all sorts of gender and race they should make the next battlefield modern
@earnest matrix most likely that will be the setting
Futuristic settings give the devs literally as much freedom as they want
i am looking forward to seeing how reddit explains away their dislike of women being in their vidya this time
I think either near future or Vietnam would be fun
Modern or Vietnam
@strong island same
I mean that would be so fun in a Blackhawk mowing down Vietcong
near future would be smart from a cosmetics perspective
The m16 and M60 would be so hot
cuz they can do pretty much what they want
they resisted enough with bf1 and that was only on like two specific class/faction combinations, bfv they hate it, how they gonna cope in a modern military setting where basically anyone can join lol
So would the napalm sticking to Vietnamese farmers
and with the larger player counts as well
like, imagine you and your homies charging the enemy line on fucking hoverbikes
you’ve basically got 2 map styles, sorta urban, and jungle
Desert too
No. I want them to do modern and maybe a Vietnam “DLC” like BC2
Even though it’s dif time setting I just really think Vietnam would be hella fun
but there’s only so many maps that you can squeeze out of a vietnam game, and the players would shit about it
what about cold war bf?
Do you think they'll bring back premium
i think if they were to do vietnam, it would be best in a cold war gone hot type scenario
EA is trying to go away from the steroytupe they make u pay for everything
yeah very unlikely they’ll go back to a premium model
also ngl, it would never happen, but battlefield rhodesia would be fucking badass
not even kidding
that would be awesome
it’s rapidly becoming an outdated model in today’s gaming environment, which is a good thing imo
Yeah maybe BF after this one. I think they are working on 50 v 50 now
Maybe even more
In the next few decades bf is gonna go planetside level lul
i shouldn’t really have to pay an extra £40 on top of my launch £60 game just to get all of the guns and access to maps which are in the long run basically temporary
Let's make bf6 a full battle royal 💰
I wouldn’t mind paying a little. Like 5$ more for 2 new factions, 20+ new guns, 4 new maps, maybe 3-5 new vehicles
Seriously tho, a battlefield game set in rhodesia
If they are already doing live service
we don’t really have confirmation that they’re working on increased player counts, it’s mostly just inferred info
Im j saying a small amount wouldn’t affect me. But I’m not spending over 20$ for that
my guess would be upping it to 40v40
Well I would hope so. It’s going to die otherwise
Idk, 32 v 32 just seems so small compared with all the other crazy shit
@strong island it’s less so how much it is, so much as the fact you have to pay at all
Just look at planetside 2
CoD war zone has a 50 v 50 and beat BFV by a lot
Imagine if they made firestorm f2p
And then more cosmetics and players
And more money to make more stuff
partially bc it’s annoying, partially bc it means that a lot of people just won’t buy the premium at all so you get limited time with the maps
firestorm going free to play now probably wouldn’t do much
I pray they don't bring that back
if it had been f2p at its launch, on the other hand, i think it could have actually been a fairly popular BR
True
along with consistent updates and stuff
Potential potential yet another battle royal why all the games now need to have a BR in it?
Yeah, especially with a whole separate team just working on firestorm
Potential potential yet another battle royal why all the games now need to have a BR in it?
@upbeat zodiac money
It's the latest trend
@upbeat zodiac i mean... a) it’s popular, b) what do you want them to do, just delete it from the game? lmao
Got to trend-->more sales
"Latest trend"
it was trending in 2017 and 2018
It's been around for years now
people really be like “i personally don’t enjoy BR games therefore no one is allowed to play them. no opinions here”
Still the latest trend
No delete it but remember how in the convention the public was pissed to know they will do a br?
The only battle royale people care about now a days is warzone
@earnest matrix BRs are consistently the most popular games basically since fortnite blew up
@upbeat zodiac again, so maybe like... 200 people are representative of the entire playerbase? bet
Fall guys is fun but most people see br games as running about killing people grabbing loot
like people get in such a huff about BR because it’s morally below them, or something, and it’s just like who actually gives a shit about what you think about a style of shooter
What setting for bf6?
@earnest matrix we don’t know officially yet
I want modern or near future
I mean, what's the most likely
Fact is how you make graphics?
You take 100 people and say it represents popular opinions
Besides the internet shitstorm they took too
Modern
Like I don't want crazy futuristic
BO2 type thing? @solid hinge
Hello
@earnest matrix yeah I don't want that
“the internet shitstorm” you mean “the r/bfv shitstorm” with like a couple hundred consistent users probably
I swear cold war is just getting readynuking the shit outta each other @sour stratus
It would be nice if dice makes a cold war game and introduces the other minor wars both super powers gave suppor
@earnest matrix it was but like it has technology in it I doubt we'll see in 5 years
Imagine civil war battlefield HAHAHAHA
it’s not like the subreddit is just a pit of entitled Gamers jerking each other off over the same three opinions that get upvoted
Not only exclusively Vietnam
Everything is not about reddit
Another battle royal and plus you have to pay for it yeah great idea
If fortnite wouldn't have done the br mode and keept to develop the base game the br would have stayed in H1Z1 XD
Fortnite isn't that bad
can you... read? or did you just hear “BR” and jump in with the same opinion
And damn now every game is obligated to be a br or have a br in it
So not original unfortunately
we were literally talking about if Firestorm had been free to play 
worst thing epic ever did was thinking that mechs were a good idea
If they didn't follow the trend it basically dies - _-

I doubt it would of made it better tbh @brave coral
@upbeat zodiac who the fuck cares
@solid hinge it would have had a better run at least
A never ending trend so no new fun games
@brave coral yeah probably but it wouldn't of been big
Remember when lootboxes were a trend
tbh, it would have probably filled a decent niche of more serious but also still arcadey BR
And lootbox trend is dying now
@solid hinge i’m not saying it would have been warzone level, but there was a good market for it
@brave coral honestly that's the biggest appeal of battlefield
in general
It strikes the perfect balance of hardcore and arcadey
lootbox ‘trend’ is dying because people are realising it’s a shitty practise and there’s been lawsuits/laws over them
A
good luck getting a significant lawsuit against the concept of BR
@brave coral like now you can only get in a game with a couple of other players at least on Xbox but if they made it free I reckon it would of been the same
Yup if its pay to win its illegal
@solid hinge i’m not saying it would still be huge, you don’t really need to keep going “well actually...” lol
Not hardcore enough that it's a full on milsim, but not too arcade that it's not super run and gun fast paced
i’m just saying, it would have had a better playerbase for longer and might have actually had some relevance for a while
@brave coral I just don't want them to bring it back they could've put the time and materials into a better multiplayer
Honestly dice did a shitty job with marketing
i literally never said i wanted them to suddenly make it free to play and try and revive it
Cause dice is not focused on marketing like others society
He said the s word
cuss word.........
content wise the main game is “dead”, and they’d be competing with warzone which largely fills the niche that firestorm may have provided while being generally a bit more accessible
I don't think it would have pulled resources away from the multiplayer
since dice has a different studio working on firestorm
Or had
after it launched control was handed over to DICE i think, but yeah if they’d planned to keep it around for the somewhat long run they could have left it with criterion i think
Huh
I don't really have the decision of adding a BR to battlefield tbh
*hate
It made sense
Since battlefield was known for its large scale battles
And a BR would have fit right into that theme
Its a paradox
Cause it fit but not in the sames times
