Im going to try avoiding the whiny pre game launch Baloney but this is just feedback on the m1907 winchester on present observation.
In the 3rd match in the stream, a player was using the winchester m1907 semi auto rifle. it holds 20 rounds and deals 22 damage at long range. For a semi auto rifle, 22 is a little low especially considering the lewis gun does the same damage at range. What may result is the m1 carbine from hardline; a completely useless semi auto “rifle”. I think 25 damage is fair because it would allow the player to potentially get a 4 shot kill if shots are put on correctly aiming at the torso. I think the mondragon rifle
I see lots wrong with this game. From the amount of use from automatics to the typical fast paced action that FPS games have come to be.
But my biggest gripe is handguns. Sorry, but if you have a bolt action and miss a shot or your clip runs out, you shouldnt just switch to your hand gun like any other game. Not to mention the fact most soldiers wouldnt even carry one.
This could be an even better chance to bring melee in. Instead of someone just finishing them off with a handgun they will be forced to fight or flight. You can either try and shorten the distance and beat the living hell out of them, or take cover, reload and keep shooting.
This is WW1, and so far its making a joke of the damn war.
You were doing great in the stream, at least at points where I could see the scoreboard. Wish I was in your shoes at that moment, I would have been fangirling over Wiz Khalifa and Snoop Dogg.
See this should not be a modern shooter. This was their chance to try something else, to replicate ww1 in a new way with new gameplay that we havent had before.
But no, its battlefield 4 with weapons, factions and vehicles from the era. It’s nothing new, and they havent replicated realistically to what it was like back then in anyway.
This is why they shouldnt have touched ww1, because they were never going to do it properly. And the community seems to be making sure they wont do it properly.
Hell, im waiting for the Metro 1918 map to drop just to show how far gone Battlefield truly is…
i subscribe about the fast paced action, less about the historicity of the game, it is just a game not a historical reproduction
i propose for the title : battelfield 1, with a 4 strike and replaced by a 1
Except they weren’t trying something else - they were making a Battlefield game. You know, an existing franchise that they’re known for and that is one of the three largest FPS franchises in the world?
Battlefield games don’t “replicate” warfare. They never have. Battlefield has NEVER been a “realistic” game, not in the least.
They may not be doing the WW1 game YOU want, but it seems that droves of people are thrilled with their take on this specific era of warfare. Sorry, but you’re in the minority here - the majority of Battlefield fans don’t want a slow, monotonous replication of WW1 that plays and feels nothing like the past 9 Battlefield games have.
They didn’t try to replicate how things were back in WW1 because that would make for a game that a huge majority of their playerbase wouldn’t enjoy playing at all. It wouldn’t play similarly to ANY other Battlefield ever made. That doesn’t sound like something many BATTLEFIELD fans want.
Droves of people? More like droves of fans of Youtube stars. They’ll buy anything, even a t*** in plain sight, just to be like their Youtube stars or public ones.
The majority of Battlefield fans (majority of newcomers/drop-in, drop-out players/casual players/Youtube followers, that’s the proper word you’re looking) have no idea what they want but if a name like JackFrags, LevelCap, Matimio or XFactor says it’s good, it goes.
Those are the majority you’re talking about.
By that logic, a sane person that doesn’t support day-one DLC, Premium membership DLCs that divides communities and endorsement by Youtube stars is a minority (larger minority than your “majority”). Good luck, you and your “majority” are going to need it.
Battlefield 2 was a pinnacle in series and function. Battlefield 4 is a stripped-down sunken ship, trying to sail grinding on the sea floor with “majority” saying that it will last for 8 years like that.
This pre-alpha was played on a local server there and everyone connected to it. It’s noticeable that it still has a way to go but be cautious, remember the last time everyone praised something like this. Even if it was in beta, caution recommended.
And now to give constructive criticism, not a bashing one:
It’s nice to see that you can hurt vehicles again with regular grenades. It gives back the feeling of arcade it was before which will displease the “majority”. Separate rifle for that is just a bonus.
I wish they return random spread while hip firing. Unlike BF4 where it was consistent and you just adapted to counteract.
Gun handling is okay, to my surprise. The only regret is: no more magazine counts of ammo but piece by piece.
The dynamic weather: cool idea. The fog gives you the feel of past games where you actually had to work with other people to find opponents. Hoping you can have it during a whole match. More intense.
hey man good for you i am jelaous what game out of all battlefield games bf one have most similar gun feel, speed, movement…if u can talk about it ofc, tnx
I actually like the game a lot, game already looks better than any other frostbite 3 game imo and i cant wait to start playing it.
I like reload animation on Gewehr and sound is great, no bullet trail, glowing yellow bullet similar to glowing white from bf3, sniping looks fast and bullet velocity is high…etc everything is great only one thing i would like personally it is not criticism is just one line on 500m on sniper rifle scope or additional scope with that function so we can adjust bullet drop easier, if someone is 250m we can aim in the middle between center and that line to get hs also that additional line will help with leading at the same time.
Everything else looks great as far as i am concerned.
Also i read somwhere there is no rush anymore it is my favourite mode in bf games i hope they will make similar mode bc many bf players only play that mode.
