Kilometers Davis posted:Someone compare this to BF1 for me please and thanks? I didn’t like BF3/BF4 much at all outside of the incredible sound design. BF1 though was super fun and nowhere near as frustrating as the previous few games. BF1 was complete boring as hell garbage that wishes it was anywhere near as much fun as 3/4. BFV is a modest improvement over BF1. Infantry combat is better. Armor is still terribly un-fun to play and gimped to all hell. Take from that what you will.

Battlefield V: Maps no one gives a poo poo about but we added them because they were in Scandinavian countries. Give me Wake, Normandy, El Alamein. And please fire whatever English major you have in charge of your studio DICE, the horrible story and voice overs add nothing to the experience.

RCarr posted:No spotting is a bummer. That was one of the best parts of the battlefield games. People will say they are glad it’s gone which they are entitled to, but it was just one of the things which could distinguish a good player from an average one. You could not fire your gun once in past battlefields and still make an impact just by spotting people for your squad/team. The new revive mechanic is annoying. Just let me look at the mini-map while I wait to respawn, and if I happen to get revived, great. TTK is too short. Vehicles are worthless (note: I suck at flying so I can’t speak for planes), but I actively avoid vehicles in this game when I used to enjoy going on 50+ kill streaks with the Arty truck in BF1. The most obvious complaint is not being able to see people. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been looking right at someone and couldn’t distinguish them from the background until they started shooting at me. 4 man squads instead of 5 just means I only get to play with 3 of my friends instead of 4. I’m one of those people who would get a service star with a weapon in BF1, and immediately move on to the next weapon. I think I had over 100 unique service stars in BF1, and still hadn’t run out of weapons to use. There’s much less of a choice in weapons in this game. That’s just off the top of my head. All of this is correct except for BF1 being anything approaching a fun game. Also DICE needs to quit with this stupid "choose the vehicle you want from the spawn screen". You built the drat maps, you probably have some idea of what vehicles make for fun gameplay on a given map. I get that they're trying to give people a chance to shape their own battles, but given how their map design quality is consistently getting worse in each BF game, maybe they shouldn't throw away proven ideas like only allowing specific numbers of X vehicles per map.

lambskin posted:I really don't get the bf1 hate? I get that it felt quite different from bf4 but most of the hate ends up being people calling it casualfield 1 etc. The entire series is a casual arcade style shooter, so I don't really get the obsession with tryharding? Fair enough, I guess the skill ceiling was lowered in BF1 below what I arbitrarily consider fun. I'm realistic, just as I recognize Metro and Locker were miserable 64 player maps, they were also the most popular (for some reason I can't ever fathom) so DICE is right to build toward that audience. It's just disappointing to see Battlefield continue its slide into "games I no longer want to play". I wish it had some competitor in the playspace, but there are no vehicle based FPS games of even remotely similar caliber out there.

Externally repairing was more conducive to teamwork and had risk associated. Preach. No more battlefield moments of stealing some repairing guy's tank, or getting your tank stolen and having to frantically work to destroy it. The noobification continues.

BFV is better than BF1. That's about all I can say about it that's positive at this point. I think if they give armor a little more love RE: splash damage, and maybe a little more speed, it will be in a good spot. Still not as fun as pre-BF1 vehicles, but at least better playable. The panzerfaust spam is a lot less pronounced now, so that's helpful. Their stupid decision to continue to let people choose whatever vehicle they want (instead of what makes for a better map experience) means more people choose vehicles instead of going as infantry if their favorite is taken. Add to that, there are no longer cappable points that deliver extra armor. All the points are the same, there's no need to frantically try to recover a point when you suddenly get backcapped and armor spawns behind your lines. And the stupid "repair inside your tank" mechanic needs to die. It sucks all of the fun out of fighting vehicles. No one gets out of their tank anymore. There are no more frantic battles to destroy a captured tank, no running battles to escape with armor you captured yourself. It just robs the game of a level of fun that BF1943 had no trouble including. I used to bitch at pubbies for not dying in their tanks and letting them get captured, but looking back man did I have a lot of fun trying to recover that stolen armor.

I can't really tell the difference. M1907 SF is beast mode btw. Pretty much the only modern feeling AR. It has some kick at a distance, but for CQB it's an awesome bullet hose.

I finally got it recorded just to confirm it wasn't happening when I was blinking. There's a glitch where a tank won't show as available in the spawn menu even if you're sitting there staring at it, waiting for it to appear. It happened 4x in a row last night that I'd be waiting for a tank, only for it to never show as a spawn option and instead a brand new tank rolls out of the spawn point to quickly die from pubbiedriveritis.

It begins. I only wish I didn't have to play so cautiously to post numbers. Vehicles are more fun than BF1 but still boring as poo poo to play. Not sure which game this is from since I only just saw it, but I probably died 5 times total in the tank all night, and all I did was tank so I understand the rage.

1907 SF continues to melt faces. It is possible to completely disable melee, so you don't end up meleeing when you're in a frantic gunfight. Turning off music and setting audio option to 3d headphones makes it impossible for someone to sneak up on you.

TheOneAndOnlyT posted:My usual RL Bone crew hasn't been playing this as much as they did the previous Battlefields. When is the goon crew usually on? Weekends mostly. Battlefield 1 being the boring suckfest it was killed my BF habit so I don't play during the week anymore. BF5 has revived some desire, but it's still not BF4 levels of quality. They sorta buffed the M1907 so that's exciting. Don't know why they increased recoil at range, it was already plenty outshot by the Gewehr and every other single shot variant. PF nerf is good, would have preferred splash damage/speed buff for the tanks over the PF nerf. Anything that's not a light tank is still pretty useless.

They need to make panzerstorm 1000 tickets a side at least. 500 is just too short. Also none of you will ever ascend to ultra tanker status if you don't play "destroy all the cover" with me. Destruction level is once again decent, we should be clearcutting maps.

AA tank exists to get destroyed by light tanks. Seriously, there's nothing useful it does that the light tank with 20mm doesn't do better, and with better speed and a smaller profile. I don't give a poo poo about planes, they're pretty much neutered in this game anyway.

Nah. It's not anywhere as good as BF3 or BF4 ended up being, but it's already miles ahead of the snoozefest that was BF1. I'm thinking the next battlefield they'll almost be back on track from the BF1 suckfest derail. Hopefully they stop listening to whoever is in charge of vehicles and spawn screens. Also whoever the gently caress keeps trying to go for story. I don't give a gently caress about battles no one cares about in WW2. Just give me the hits.

Such a stupid loving nerf. The light tank is already balanced because it has poo poo armor. Just drop the effective range of 20mm, problem solved. But nooo, whiney redditors were tired of having to pay attention to the map to make sure that light tanks with any semblance of skiill didn't get behind them.
