My 2070 on medium is running like garbage, and I can't shoot on foot unless I either open the menu and close it or punch. Punching fires my shotgun. A little awkward.

Because I am a corporate slut with no willpower I can now confirm: EA Play subscription does not currently work for early beta access, while a preorder does. Anyhow, just squeezed in half a round. Of course, the very first spawn put had me unexpectedly piloting a VTOL because the actual pilot bailed moments before, just a true battlefield experience from the get-go. Also, Slug Lyfe is back: It seems to be a two-hit-kill to the body at most ranges, and you have a separate ammo pool for buck for when you go in close.

am I still misunderstanding a technical test if I say that the beta feels as janky as the test footage looked ?

They just let me play on PC Game Pass. So it seems they were accidentally blocking game pass users and they just lifted the block.

Played for an hour. The gameplay is solid, but there is something awkward about movement. Doesn't feel fluid or smooth. I love how the lmg can pack AP rounds and shoot parts off vehicles. Every Battlefield beta has been super buggy and jank, so I can ignore all that. Right now the whole game feels a bit stuttery, despite having smooth fps. Maybe it's just laggy servers and they need to optimize the net code. Also HDR doesn't work! I was hoping to see how beautiful an HDR Battlefield could look in 2021.

Every single time people say things like this, and every single time the release ends up janky. It's a dice game. do not expect it to be anything resembling polished on release (or ever)

Nothing feeling stuttery to me. I don't do vehicles tho. I have seen some warping, but I haven't felt like I lost any gunfights because of it.

My biggest gripe right now is there's no faction identity. The specialists are the same no matter what side you're on.

PS5 early impressions after two rounds: - contoller feels great with the haptics, not obnoxious. Just right. - sound effects are awesome. - guns feel pretty good. - running is not too fast. - smooth frames, nice graphics. - this map design, I dunno. It's a little too big and there are not epic bit fights going on. Everyone is a little too spread out and this doesn't feel like 128. - graphics are good, but a little 'clean'. Everything is shiny and perfect, but there's no character (so far). - UI needs work. So far, a very positive impression. Want to play more, but I gotta work.

Big fan of the shotgun slugs in this game. Unlike some previous Battlefields they generally hit what you aim at.

Hit registration seems totally random, it's incredibly unsatisfying when coupled with the disappointing weapon noises.

the fps was absolutely abysmal on an rtx even on low until I rebooted or changed some combo of graphics settings like nvidia reflex which made it okay

Playing on a 3700x and rx 5700xt, 1440p all high and it’s running really well. Is anyone collecting any tips or tricks or known bugs for people to be aware of? - Apparently yaw left isn’t working if you’re flying with KBM? - No map - Running bordered window has slight performance increase.

Can someone who plays BFV tell me how the slide spam is? I really liked almost all the combat of BFV except that you could spam slide every 3 seconds with no penalty. They said they would address this, curious if its just 4 seconds now instead.

the bots are bugged I I just sat at a cap and endless waves of bots would pour into range rarely hitting me, sometimes if they got inside the cap they wouldnt even look at me kinda wigging out looking around and up. Ended up with 62 kills...

Game is fun, but yeah - the build is really rough. Lots of graphical hiccups (flickering, etc.) on Series X, although the framerate was fine.

the menu fps is uncapped so if you don't have a global cap set (like in nvidia control panel) then lookout if you have an evga 3090 or you might get new world'd

Whether I can hit what I'm shooting seems entirely different from match to match, so I'm guessing it's PING dependent to a huge degree but without any server browser or any way to see my ping it's just a crapshoot. I have not been able to hit a single thing with the shotguns, I seem to have best luck with the LMG of all guns right now. Movement ALWAYS feels janky and slidey as others have said, feels like going back to BF3 movement on a slightly too high ping server, nothing as smooth as BF1 and BFV were, but at least you can still vault. Haven't found anything I can mantle on yet. Parachutes are barely maneuverable and incredibly bad like the BFV parachutes.

I don't know if their internal build is much further along but yeah this game feels like it could use a delay into the spring. Other than that, it's fun as hell. Been having a ton of fun. The guns have a nice feel to them and Orbital is a great map. I can already tell I'm going to be playing here a lot.

oh boy this thing is coming in hot. commorose not in yet my bindings randomly deleted themselves? I can't aim (RMB does nothing) and I can't reload! Performance of graphics is pretty good. Map and environmental effects pretty good. Sound effects great. Gunplay not bad, TTK feels a bit high though. Tornado is a complete gimmick. AI is pretty effective.

Where can you mess with your player card? I noticed that other people have several different ones, but there doesn't appear to be any options in the main menu aside from "Play" and "Quit"

Is this UI placeholder? It's loving horrible. Looks like a mobile touchscreen UI that they've slapped on.

A few thoughts: The guns and nearly everything else don't sound good It sort of feels like I'm sliding all over the place (honestly not that bad - doesn't feel realistic but it's quick and responsive and arcadey) The weather effects seem pretty cool Runs okay-ish at medium at 1440p on a 1080ti, but definitely gets sluggish with big action Weird graphical artifacts Generally feels janky and not really ready for release

My very brief experience is that it's just more Battlefield. I could get pretty much the same experience just playing BF4 again. I never liked Conquest much anyway. Gonna need to play something else like Hazard Zone to sell me on this.
