Battlefield V
- Thread starter Rollins
- Start date
I started playing the 10 hour trial and I don't hate it anymore.
I was wrong in saying it played like COD but it definitely doesn't feel like Battlefield ethier.
It's kind of in limbo between the two IMO.
The game is buggy AF though and the menu load times are horrendous.
Game was clearly rushed to launch by EA to make the holidays. It definitely needed another 6 months to polish and add more content.

I'm finding that to enjoy this game, you need to un-learn a ton of bad habits from BF1. This is a good BF game. The more I play the more I realize how wrong BF1 got a lot of things.
What I love is that you rarely see people dominate the scoreboard. The only exception is the bombers which should be fixed in the next patch. Otherwise, everyone dies all the time. That's what makes it great when you get on a run and can really have an impact on the battle. If you look at the scores, pretty much everyone is going through a buzzsaw of deaths, outside of a few useless snipers.
I find myself dying a ton, but winning more and more.
When you get separated from your squad though and everyone goes off solo... forget it. People need to learn to never do that. Wait at the spawn screen until your squad spawns and you can spawn on them. If your squad leader isn't giving orders, request one and take it.

I have probably less than 5 hours in this and feel like I've had more epic encounters than in all of BF1. In the map with the bridge (looks like copy pasta job of the BF1 map) me and a friend were in one of the small villages taking a flag. We cleaned it up and capped it but then an enemy tank came rolling in. I was medic and he was support so not much going for defense. We had a friendly tank show up but get destroyed, so we're hiding out in a house. Enemies finally found us and slowly starting taking the building down. Stairwell gone, roof collapsing etc lol. Just crazy.
Then later in the match a whole group of us was heading on G with Spitfires attacking and just leveling the entire area lol. Killed like 10 people just advancing on that little section. Ended up winning the match by only 30-40 points.

I honestly found BF1 to be really easy if you knew what you were doing. I would go way positive in kills and almost always finished at the top in score taking objectives and setting orders for squad to complete.
Good to hear BFV is more of a challenge.

So far, my score is way better, but my k/d is pretty bad.
My win% is somehow 76.92%, which kind of makes me want to quit as that will never hold.

For anyone unlocking the game tomorrow, just be ready to die a lot. Stick with your squad at all times.

Got one month of EA access to play the BFV trial. Love the game. Also dled BF4 and have enjoyed it just as much if not more. Just prefer the modern setting.
I know right. Was so hard manging a mere 10 hour trial when all I wanted to do was play.
easily (but for me its the case will all BF releases)
I just wish this game had more weapons though, maybe more gadgets too? looking back at the amount of weapons in BF4 is ridiculous
Never got around to setting up the EA access sub. I’ll try to get to it tonight so I can have the trial tomorrow. Still enjoying anyway? Did you buy it?
I was so very wrong about the game.
I judged it harshly because it wasn't an instant love for me like other Battlefield games. After using my 10 hour trial I actually re-purchased it last night LOL.
Now that I've adapted to the changes in play and familiarized myself with things I really enjoy it.
Needs more maps very badly though.

Got the game for free on PC.
I preordered a few months ago and about a week ago I canceled my preorder and received my refund to my credit card. November 19th comes around and the CD key company I preordered the game from sent me the code anyway and I redeemed it...f*** up in their system I guess.

Not sure if we're already friends on Origin but feel free to add me. Think my account name is under my name.
Edit: it is
I always seem to lose firefights with that medic gun it just feels weak too, it's kind of balanced out by having no recoil.
It is a range issue. At medium range you will lose, even if you get the drop on the them. I have 3 guns unlocked and all seem to have the issue. Close range they are good, but they really do need a range buff.
Ifind it really strange they gave the CQB weapons to a class that shouldn't be run & gunning or right at the front of the action.
