Kazinsal posted:The worst part about the way that Warzone does it is that you can't do custom loadouts with new guns if you don't buy the whole drat new game. Of course, the meta guns are all the new ones, so if you bought MW2019 but not Cold War, Actiblizz says you can get hosed. the only thing Activision Blizzard likes loving harder than their players are their female employees

I always had this idea about an fps where you could just select different theaters of war and jump between 1942, vietnam, coldwar, and present day but I never imagined somebody would do it and then actually mix everything up. That's kind of beyond anything I was expecting from dice.

I'd be happy if they kept building on this over the course of another couple games also

The Kins posted:They've explicitly called out that 1942 content is in, all remade with polycounts above 10 and destruction and stuff. This doesn't mean we won't get any Vietnam era stuff, but guaranteed it will be based on the Bad Company 2 Vietnam assets. Which is too bad because we're all going to miss the choplifting air pirates.

There's always the chance each new season could bring a new game into the roster, so we're starting off with 1942, BC2 and BF3, but Season 2 could bring BF2, then Vietnam with S3, then BF1, etc.

Just keep bringing back old BF content for more fan service/insanity

Something like this is actually more enticing here, honestly. Battlefield is a game with like 3-5 year tails on them, as opposed to CODs one or F2P titles that revamp everything constantly. By the time the next game comes out, Portal will be pretty packed.

Theres a real nostalgia element to being able to play a pseudo BC2 again with modern movement and visuals, but with the old BC2 balance and TTK.

Oh poo poo, I realized you could probably do all 2042 except BC3 classes, so it'd be no specialists. I know a lot of people griped about that would that actually work?

Could totally be wrong though, the 2042 dude in the trailer just had all of them, much as trailers matter for such things. From the RPS article; RPS posted:There are some limitations, however. You can't have soldiers from multiple eras on one team, for example. You can't have a gang of disparate US soldiers from throughout history fighting a crowd of Russians from various eras. To me that says weapons are probably limited to their originating faction but Orv fucked around with this message at 02:22 on Jul 23, 2021 |

i seem to remember reading somewhere that 2042 was getting a longer life cycle than previous releases so we're probably looking at a few years of content here

During the EA Play Live one of the questions the host asked regarding custom game modes was "what about a gun game with shotty & snipers from throughout history" and the answer was yes, so it's implied that weapons are not faction limited. Although you may even be able to just disable specialist abilities in portal. There's 100% going to be servers running near day one for those boring people who want regular soldiers.

Judging from BFV it seems unlikely that weapons will be faction limited anymore due to the added difficulty of balancing the faction with others.

The problem is the DLCs came out so slow that a lot of people lost interest halfway through the games’ lifespans.

priznat posted:Judging from BFV it seems unlikely that weapons will be faction limited anymore due to the added difficulty of balancing the faction with others. BFV just had a weird bug (?) where it would sometimes swap your combat role if there was a faction change. You'd play one map as a nazi with a panzerfaust and then the next map be in the japanese army with the Fliegerfaust. Extremely annoying. I guess gently caress me for using the combat roles apparently.

I wonder how much fun it is to go through 3 billion different servers with custom modes to find one that is actually fun. After all, filtering the servers in the other games to get rid of "24/7 what have you" ones was already a pain. One thing I noticed about that trailer is whacky poo poo galore but not a single female soldier, or did I miss one? I guess they decided to keep their head down to not enrage the "gamers" anymore I guess, cowards. Bring back female soldiers and custom LGBTQ emblems, it was the funniest poo poo to see all the people get sooooo mad at us.

Until I got used to all the character models, I kind of assumed they randomized them every time you spawned/joined. They should just do that, or let you make one that just gets different outfits depending on your class e and pink urban camo should be integrated into uniforms, weapons and vehicles

I'm fine with them not including 2142. I understand the technical difficulties, they have more important things to do at the moment, etc. etc. Also as a 2142 fan I'm used to disappointment. So now I'm just hoping that if/when (probably more on the "if" side) they do 2142 in the portal they give it a proper cinematic intro. Something like soldiers of different eras creeping through the dark and fog, hearing various futuristic sounds like some sort of horror movie before one of the walkers comes charging out.

I wouldn't be surprised if 2142 is a Season 2 plan for Battlefield Portal.

So they definitely understand that "fun" was the missing piece in their sandbox war game but still they might gently caress up any number of things even if the beta goes well.

The optimist in me says that the minor flop of BFV, plus COD/Warzone being the big FPS boi at the moment gave them real motivation to pull all the stops out.
