Battlefield V

You only get one chance at making a first impression.
Looks a bit boring.
I just watched the trailer.
I still don't know what it's about.

It's certainly not battlefield or COD...if you prefer that type of shooter. It's like ARMA mixed with Squad. 50 player servers and no AI except the planes
The reveal trailer was much more about generating interest than revealing the game itself- it took FackFrags and other EA/DICE-promoting YouTubers to explain exactly what we were seeing. I think basically it was about triggering half the internet to get people talking about the game. It certainly worked.
I play Battlefield because it's a fast-paced casual shooter, not because it's hardcore/milsim-lite. Battlefield has always been an arcade shooter. If I'm going to play a game for extended periods, I'll play Elite.

Remind me when i get home properly in a week or four. I'll pm you the address for a coop ArmA 3 WWII server.
Unsurprisingly I'll be skipping this, it looks bilge.

I've played Battlefield since BF Bad Company 2...still play it in all it's current forms from BF 4 to BF1. You'll get no arguments from me there
Maybe I should rephrase.
I know it's about WWII, or an alternate timeline or something.
But the trailer was so chaotic, I literally have no idea what was happening. I didn't even have time to tell who was who. Lol
I've always preferred the modern versions of battlefield anyway. Battlefield 2 was brilliant. And Bad Company 2. And 3&4.
Not played any since.
Never liked CoD.
I prefer co-op Arma 3 these days.

There is multiple perspective changes and it isn't really clear when it happens or why. Apart from that I have the impression some agenda driven internet rage is currently thundering over it?

It was when the Kingdom Come: Deliverance mockrage started I realised I really don't want to live on this planet anymore.

I just want another Battlefield Bad Company game.
BFBC2 and BF2 have special places in my heart.

BFBC2 is my all time favorite game.
Lots of new stuff on this from E3.
Can't link the vids but googling jackfrags or westie will get you a lot of new media.
The new grand operations mode sounds fantastic. Do have to say one thing though...it doesn't feel like a WW2 shooter at all to me at moment. Not necessarily a bad thing.

Not sure how their numbers are doing. I just received a thrid email from EA "reminding me that the open beta is indeed here and it's indeed open"
One more and I'm putting EA newsletter on a spam filter.

Loved that beta gameplay vid you posted...coffee out of the nose stuff some of it [haha]
To be honest, I kinda got bored with Battlefield after the interim release of BF1943...which came just before BF3 and was a small 3 map battle royale thing set in the pacific islands...still the best BF game ever...apart from bad company 2 Vietnam [yesnod]
The last time I seriously got into the Battlefield series was BF4 on the Xbox...I was part of a clan thing then, old farts like me in the main. I did try and get into BF one on the PC but got put off by the 12 year old squeakers using aimbots or game trainers.

I never played the old Battlefields. But I have Origin access so I played 3 and 4, maybe 50 hours on each. It can be fun, but nothing groundbreaking. I am not that much into competitive games but I played through the campaign and tried a couple of multiplayer matches, then, one day, just didn't play again and after a while deleted it from my hard disk. They're not THAT bad, just not my cup of tea, I guess.
Same with Battlefront 2. Played the singleplayer campaign (It's actually really fun. I enjoyed it thoroughly), but never played multiplayer.
So I will probably try B5 at some point. Probably out of boredom.
