Final Playtest Request

[split trellis]

During the final playtest can we split the gamemodes to the casual and hardcore i would like to see what features each gamemode will have and how they play

[fierce valley]

Unless they already plan to do this which I don't think they have this won't happen

there is probably a lot of work to split the two gamemodes

[split trellis]

agree but it seem like it would be good idea show what the final game will be like when it hits early access because it could rub a lot of people wrong when they go to check out the last playtest and really enjoy what they offered and to have it all change to something else once it finally releases and this would mostly apply to new players that dont know they plan to split the gamemodes

thou i do really enjoy the mix of casual and hardcore gameplay features

[fierce valley]

we likely won't get the split of gamemodes for a while after ea

[steep stream]

Will devs add hybrid game mode just like in playtest?

[split trellis]

i was under the imprestion that the gamemode split would happen once it hit EA

[fierce valley]

me too

but that was a year ago

there has been no reason to suspect they have put any work into splitting the modes

so I don't think it'll happen soon

[split trellis]

honestly i kinda hope they don't i think what they have now is perfect at the vary least i wouldn't be appose to having friendly fire

[fierce valley]

we will get split

[steep stream]

Looks like they will use ea as feedback for the split of playtest game mode

[mental escarp]

@split trellis you do understand that early acces mean early access to the gamr, which mean the game is far from complete. I dont think we will see an hardcore mode as soo as early access drop.

[split trellis]

i get that just was under the impression the split gamemode was coming with EA release

[fierce valley]

I think that was the plan over a year ago

The hardcore / casual split is something I think a lot of people have been wondering about—specifically regarding which features will be included in each mode. This game’s audience seems to be split between Battlefield players and Squad players, and I think having an idea of the differences that we’ll be seeing between the two gamemodes could ease the tension between those two types of players (and hopefully make both sides happy).

cod players and squad players tbh

but you are totally right. one group wants run and gun another wants milsim. its going to be hard. honestly the best option might be to have all 3, a casual, what we have currently which is a mix, and a hardcore although then you are splitting 127 servers 3 ways which isnt good for filling lobbies. either way they have a tough job ahead.

he thinks early access isn't just an excuse to release a game that may get bugs down the line
