Battlefield V

I would buy this game just for the Asian women, as long as they are hot.

I would bet that the BF regulars don't want a ton of "innovation". Moving back to ww2 is a huge step. I would bet most here have never played a ww2 BF game since it was only on PC way back in 2002. That plus adding battle royale is a big enough change.

As I always say, there's a core group of people who love BF games and really don't want to mess with them. I get that people that aren't really into them if you are just a casual fan. BF games can be frustrating at times as you really are just a single, insignificant soldier on a bigger battlefield.


I mean...there was Battlefield 1943 on consoles...but it was a stripped down arcade game. (it was fun however.)
 
Who thinks they're smarter than "everyone else" though?

I would argue there's most likely a correlation between intelligence and political beliefs.

Edit: First result that popped up on Google...

If want to make that argument, go ahead and do it, but take it to the off-topic/political thread.

I do think that it is interesting that this is the second time you've tried comparing the intelligence of different groups; no surprise that you happen to be on the "intelligent" side of these comparisons. Is your ego that fragile that you have to stroke it so much?

Um, no?

Don't be so afraid all the time.

Anyway, back to your regularly scheduled programming.
 
Depends on the BR mode.
I saw a video where they were saying Criterion would not confirm any solo play in BR mode. I think that would be somewhat of a mistake if they don't add that. But they haven't shown much of anything on BR so maybe something like that wouldn't fit or make sense.
 
Played for awhile again last night. Can’t wait till Nov to dive into the full game. This will hopefully be the game that gets my big group of friends back to playing together. Since BF1 everyone split up to PUBG, Fortnite, and a few of us still like COD WW2. It was a blast running multiple squads on the same team in BF1.

I wish we could try out the BR mode before the NOv release.
 
I finally tried the demo (D2 Forsaken has been sucking all my free time). I played a round and quit. I'm already sold lol. I'm a BF fanboy and I'm already hooked. Kind of like that it comes out right before the holiday week. I'll be playing this a ton for US Thanksgiving weekend. I may have to take that Wednesday off too.

My only worry is I hope the game isn't too grindy to unlock everything. I noticed a few people had really good guns already. They've never been good with weapon balance at all. There always seems to be 1-2 guns that dominate and they seem to be clueless what to do about it. It took them forever to figure out the Hellregel was OP in BF1.

I feel the same except I kept on playing and playing. Game looks and feels amazing. Especially after some fine tuning in the options.

I actually found the starter guns really good except maybe the assault kit. But medic and support guns got the kills pretty quick for me.
 
I have an excellent 1080p TV, but I’m having trouble seeing enemies in dark areas, especially with the lack of spotting now. I turned up the brightness and it helped some, but has anyone else had any issues with this? And if so, what changes did you make?

Beta may be missing some effecting and textures. I know it happened with CoD a few years back.

Every BF game this gen has made it harder to see enemies than it was in the older games IMO, I don't know if it's the lighting or what.
 
There are a ton of negative youtube videos about this beta, a lot of the bigger gaming channels don't seem to like it much in it's current form and only a few have mentioned the SJW aspect.

I think the lighting and other effects like Film Grain, Motion Blur (especially) etc. have an impact on spotting enemies. I disabled all of that useless stuff and turned up the brightness up some. It's improved the image substantially.

I thought enemies where hard to spot because the dorito symbols where gone. Honestly the game helped to much and now I have payed more attention to muzzle flash and sounds of fire and the hot spots.. I enjoy it more and feel like it takes more skil.

and now they took out the spotting, it makes it really annoying... when i heard they took out 3D spotting i thought they would rework things to make characters stand out better, i was wrong. or atleast make it so when you are outside, looking indoors wouldnt just be pure black

i am now playing at brightness 65%... in HDR... it ruins the contrast abit but i dont give a f*** cause now atleast i can see more people
 
I can't wait to try to play this tonight! cmon crappy internet help me out!!

The game seems to reward situational awareness now. I found myself just going prone and peeking a lot. Just spawning and sprinting isn't going to work (as it shouldn't). Getting a good firing position makes all the difference.

The old spotting system was pretty cheesy and really easy to exploit. I had no problem seeing people, but then again I'm on a 4k TV and an X1X. If people don't move at all they are really hard to see, but that goes both ways.
 
You can still spot someone on it in a way, they turn red and will show up on the radar for a couple seconds.
If you use the left bumper, you can still yell out general locations if you see someone, and a little marker appears on the map. It's the same way you mark a conquest point.

Yes I was using it constantly. It was helpful when trying to get teammates to look in a general direction at enemies I saw lurking. Just put down one of those yellow looking icons.

IT's actually a more realistic way of doing it, as you couldn't give your squadmates pinpoint accuracy, just direct them where to look. I thought it was great
 
i say again....

If on Xbox and buying this add me

I'm going Xbox as well. Feel free to add me: kerosene31. I can never remember who's who between gamer tags and platforms.
