60 seconds is just the pre round countdown if they cant lower that fine. But at the very least cut out the bs extra time waiting for players to join

My point is when the lobby starts it should already have 64 people joined in and therefore should be no extra waiting for players to join

Right now the lobby will start with like 55 people and then wait and wait until it gets to 64 thats just dumb

hi i also struggled but when you select africa as the region and at slots just leave that with no selection (as in dont select any option or deselect everything you have selected) you should get many servers for SA i play every day just BF1 i cant see any SA activity there…

OP, are you an idiot? There’s a quit button when you die. You don’t have to stay and wait.

The looting gotta change. Make it happen fast please. Can’t for the life of me figure out it wasn’t pointed out earlier in development. Also the sound is weird. Very often the sounds you yourself make sounds like they come a little bit to late and not where you’re standing. Fix that and it’s gonna be awesome.

you should try joining a SA server and feel the difference the Ping makes to your game ,  
I also played on EU servers since BF4 but they always seem to be one step ahead of me .  
Playing BFV and BF4 on a SA server really makes a difference in your gaming experience .  
On Playstation i found it better probably because the other players have to struggle to play with the controller aswell so that makes it a bit fairer but lets face the facts on PC’s the guys destroy each other because of reaction speed.

I hope BFV will also have one or two Firestorm servers for South Africa as that would make gameplay much more enjoyable and fun. They should also make Firestorm a gameplay mode so that you can search which server you want to join.

Basically, I’m finding the whole inventory system very confusing and have no idea how to apply my armour. Can anyone help me out? I’m on ps4

Isn’t the whole point of a Battle Royale game to learn the map really well and get good at predicting player movements and tactics? Most BR games only have the 1 map, and PUBG has 2 or 3, but it’s been out for years. Also, the mode’s been out for less than 24 hours at this point, and they do that rotating system that cuts off 1/3 of the map from the beginning to make each match different, and you’re already demanding more maps?

Personally I’d rather they just drop Firestorm altogether and focus on improving the real game that most players bought BFV for.

It also just doesn’t appeal to me at all. I’ve played one match of Fortnite ever, spent 10 minutes collecting and building just to get shot and have it be over with. Can someone explain to me the appeal of that?

This made me think of the movie Tremors for some reason. I want a version of Battlefield that has Graboids bursting out of the ground to maul people. It could be a squad reinforcement! Urh mah gerd! I wanna call in a Graboid! It doesn’t fit in with WW2 but meh. Next Battlefield needs gigantic killing monsters that terrorise us whilst we fight over objectives.

I once played a game named “Blackhawk down” from Novalogic…best game ever but I have to say this, people “demand” everything that they want in their game these days..

So you got your game and it is what it is thus play it and be Happy or just ¯\_(ツ)\_/¯ öff and find something else to do or play!!

Maybe I’m to old (43) and not understand what this is all about but…you (we) paid for a game and play…what “they” do with it is Not our Problem or have a say in it.

When you do NOT like it…well move the ¯\_(ツ)\_/¯ on and leave the Rest Alone..

These frikin try hards ruin it for everyone…

Anything in response would just be continued unneeded whining…not surprising.

Did your version of BFV not come with Conquest, Domination, TDM, Frontlines, Breakthrough and Grand Ops? That’s bizarre, you should definitely look in to getting a refund.

Is there a reason that not all the base game weapons made it into firestorm?

The only thing I found weird in my first 2 games with solo was that I didn’t find a single AT weapon, yet both times died to a Vehicle.

Not going to rush to any judgments as it was a tiny sample size but I DID fear vehicles would be too strong in this mode… hope I’m wrong.

Most of us are at work. Wait until tonight when everybody can download and play it 🙂

I’m on PC though. Average wait 4 hours after launch (7:00am MST) was 2-3 mins… not that bad honestly.

This, but then you have to press r2 (right trigger) to actually apply it. The dpad just puts it in your hand.

You’re not supposed to be able to immediately fire back after someone knocked you down…

They should have the advantage of finishing you off… having the pistol is a mere bonus if they decide to reload or engage in another fight.

Pretty sure this was intended as other BRs don’t allow this feature, and it’s more for balance.
