Looten Plunder posted:Cant believe I stumbled across a 28 minute old trailer randomly. That looked very fun. Weird thing is I was actually pretty good at flying helicopters in Bad Company 2, but they changed the controls up in 3 and 4 that it became a lot more complicated to fly the bastards, needlessly so really Kibayasu posted:The people who complain about C4 attacks are the vehicle equivalent of snipers on a hill. They just want to sit somewhere risk free and shoot at infantry with their 1 hit kill weapon. And in the case of vehicles you don’t have to worry about being 1 hit kill back and don’t even have to land headshots. C4 tricks like that are fine as it actually takes some bit of skill and teamwork to pull off, it's not like say Titanfall 2 where anti Titan weapons are so effective and easy to use that it often feels pointless to even use Titans cause they'll just get blown up within 30 seconds of getting called in before accomplishing much Hughmoris posted:I did not particular enjoy BF1 or the little I played BF5. I really hope they go back to the BF4 era of selecting vehicles. Agreed, I loathed how much they minimized vehicle play in the last couple Battlefield games or the Battlefront games for that matter Blue Raider posted:I’m glad they seem to have some kind of vision this time around and not wasting their resources on bull poo poo like campaigns or a battle royale. On the other hand the bigger the team size the less noticeable it is when you have morons on your team The United States posted:I mean it's not CASPIAN border but it sure is a border of some sort Would be nice, Caspian Border is one of my favorite maps in the franchise jisforjosh posted:My understanding from some of the breakdowns from BF content creators, is you can play bot only matches to help new players learn the mechanics and familiarize themselves with vehicles It'll also be good for soothing egos I imagine, will be harder for me to get mad if after a really bad match I can just go do a match versus some bots and stomp them into mud Shoehead posted:I can't wait to be really mad at this game!

Insert name here posted:Someone linked an article earlier that implied they'd be OG style bots which replace players rather than Titanfall-esque style AI grunts: That’s a shame, one of the best decisions battlefront 2 made was adding squads of AI soldiers to the conquest-style game mode to give players more things to shoot

I'm back and ready to be disappointed. I'm trying to reserve judgement on specialists, but it feels like they were trying for that BR hype again, then realized it would be a poo poo project halfway through but already had specialists in place.

real good feeling about this one but wondering about how the vehicle summoning is balanced. if the other team can shoot down vehicle drops and you cant spawn them endlessly i think it could work pretty well. but like where do you realistically spawn a jet. are people going to spawn jets into the ocean while they're on a boat

Tying everyone to specific characters instead of just doing it like BF5 *promised* to do with class archetypes with more specialized abilities while allowing people to make whoever they want for customization does seem to kinda clash with their whole "War fought by PMCs and ragtag groups of people from various backgrounds and nationalities" idea and kinda a bummer since the character customization was one of the few things BF5 did sort of right.

hmmm, dunno about that teaser trailer obviously its not gameplay footage, but while parts of it and many of the announced features are appealing to me in the abstract, it simply comes off as a bit too fan-servicey and safe ("look at just how much it's Battlefield, including all your old favorites like jihad jeeps and mid-air MANPADs!") I can't reasonably be mad that they're doing what people (including myself) have wanted them to do, but a lot of what BF V was ostensibly going to do also sounded nice in the abstract my hangover from BF V is probably large enough that they was simply no way they were going to win me over with a single video, but either way its just not quite giving me the fizz Raskolnikov2089 posted:I'm back and ready to be disappointed. eh, plenty of other reasons to do it/possible sources of inspiration - i.e. it could just as easily be Rainbow Six Siege as Apex, and from a monetization perspective it obviously gives lots of opportunities to sell people new skins and specialists it also simplifies balance to some extent since your "class" just becomes a single ability that isn't integral to the core gameplay in the way support/medic/etc. were LGD fucked around with this message at 01:55 on Jun 10, 2021 |

I'd need some BFGoons alum to sign up for the alpha/beta and report back with some really glowing reviews before I'd trust any hype. V technically came free with my GFX card and was still not worth it.

Fart Car '97 posted:I mean, is it really that cold corporate focus group to say "well we've strayed from the core of the franchise setting for 7 years so let's get back to it"? uh, world war 2 was in no way a departure from the "core of the franchise setting," it just sucked they're obviously not going to go back to World War 1 straight away, so going back to the slightly near-future setting of the last well-received mainline BF titles before that is a perfectly reasonable decision from both a "true fan" and bland focus group perspective, but that's why I was saying it's rubbing me slightly the wrong way - it's the most safe and conservative course of action for the franchise hopefully that at least means the odds of it being genuinely awful are much lower (though again their last effort somehow botched world war 2), but simultaneously I think the odds of it being very mediocre in the style of a call of duty annual release are substantially higher (which doesn't rule out the possibility of a pleasant surprise, ala 2019's Modern Warfare) LGD fucked around with this message at 02:33 on Jun 10, 2021 |

I doubt they’ll go back to ww1 again. They put out so many maps that they covered the entire war pretty much. Also bf1 came out during the war’s centenary if that had anything to do with.
