Additionally, are there still no animations for getting in and out of vehicles?

If this is still the case then good. That poo poo is obnoxious.

more or less it looked like they sorta went with "no animation but you still have a small delay before being able to do anything" but idk how big of a delay - probably nowhere near as long/disorienting as some of the stuff in BF1 or BF5.

This gets to the heart of the issue for me. I don’t mind the animations per se, but the delay in entry/exit/seat switching has felt unnecessary since it was introduced in 1. Bailing out instantly is the ideal.

I don’t like medic revive animations for the same reason, but that’s not as intrusive.

It definitely looked way more seamless than 1/5 in videos and might have been due to the test software being raw enough that loading the cockpit alone was slow enough to look like a delay, if that makes sense.

Yeah when I spotted it in a video it was basically a flash of a hand popping open a door and then the view centering on the windshield. Kind of Far Cry style, if you can remember how fast that was. I still just want to teleport in.

Technical test is a fairly old build and was stripped down for purely backend and server testing, be worried if the Beta next month doesn't look much better

That makes sense because that video is definitely missing some textures. Maybe some lighting too.

At this point any company doing a technical test like that should just cancel it because the general public is too loving stupid to get what the point of the test is and will start hollering about how there's only one map and 6 guns

Hell as long as it runs well and is fun to play I honestly don’t give a drat about not having the best textures or the best lighting in the industry. I don’t play battlefield for any of that.

It does need top tier sound design though.

The gun also doesn’t look to be a true AA gun, it didn’t seem to be able to aim up above a certain point. So some kind of light anti-infantry vehicle with AA missiles (which won’t do anything because countermeasures).

i learned recently that my great grandfather was gassed in the argonne, met my great grandmother who nursed him in the hospital. Not really relevant, it just kind of weirdly recontextualized the map for me.

Also he used to talk to my dad about the nice french 'mademoiselles' whenever he got drunk i guess lol

I would have agreed if it wasn't extremely fun to grab the sentry elite and lockdown the church with just one pocket medic. Last game I had on Tsaritsyn started with a 44 kill streak just by doing that.

tbh I liked a bunch of the bf1 maps, but the one I'd probably most like them to reprise in 2042 is Fort de Vaux - I'd much rather have that be the infantry meatgrinder map than another reprise of Metro or Operation Locker
