They should have done this in the first place … make 2 seperate games.

The BR elements don’t fit in/match with “normal” BF and are killing BF V.

Firestorm should have been a seperate game.

Hopefully, when Firestorm flops, no more content will be created for this mode. We want new maps, guns, faction ect for the REAL game. No more of these pretender modes, please.

I probably will be ignoring it 😕

As a 29 year old woman, I often think Im not within the target audience for this game some of the time. Especially because of my love of RPGs and overall dislike for FPS games (though I enjoy both Battlefield V and Battlefront II). To me, being honest, the trailer looks a little childish and Im not sure I understand the point of battle royale. Is it true you only have a single life?

I’m not into Battle Royal at least PUBG horrible game. Still though I’m interested to see BR in WW setting and with better graphics than PUBG or Fornite and Apex. Still though I’m not going to be detecated to Firestorm because I love me some basic BFV so when I’m fed up with normal I switch to BR and back. Still happy to see this mode in the game. Please DICE no more rush and bring back “Conquest Tank” mode

The point of BR is to be the last one standing out of some number of players(typically 100 but in BFV’s case 64). You’re dropped into the map and scavenger for loot while a circle constricts the play zone to force players towards each other. The last player or squad alive wins. You only have one life, but when playing with a squad you can be revived. TTK also isn’t as fast as something like BFV, usually you can take some damage before going down(I don’t know what the damage will be like in Firestorm though).

See, I still dont understand the point. If I play Conquest I can choose the guns I want to have and customize them rather than using pickups. If I played battle royale and parachuted down, found myself a gun and then stayed with my squad to help them survive, but was headshotted by a sniper after a few minutes… then what? Would I go into a spectator mode or would I be able to still play somehow? Because if I only have 1 life in battle royale, why would I choose to play that instead of another game mode in Battlefield V where I can respawn as much as I want and keep playing even after being shot in the face?

Sorry, btw, I dont mean to insult anything people enjoy. Ive never played a battle royale game and they dont really seem like my thing. I kinda struggle to understand the point really 😛

There is an element of your choices being more important, and it’s more thrilling because of having one life, finding rare loot, more intense situations etc. If you die you could spectate your team or just leave and join a new match.

I don’t play BR either, I’ll probably give Firestorm a try just because. It’ll be hard to beat good ol’ conquest though.

They are obviously hearing something otherwise they wouldn’t have created this new sense of community response. I understand you cannot see the logic in repeating the same issues players want addressed, but your participation in those posts isn’t being asked. Its also rich you asking “where are those posts” since you literally went on an EA Forums searching spree in hopes to disclaiming my reported bug and known issue.

They same way they decided to be SJW’s by injecting their ideas about gender equality into the game. EA/DICE have proven themselves to be so tone deaf it’s a running joke now.

not much interest in it. Will I play it? a little just to try it. Not into BR games. Dice should have invested more into getting the BR style 4th day in operations a better chance of being played. Have only played it 1 time since launch.

BFV= Fyre Festival of gaming. LOL. This is a total disaster. Nobody’s asked for Fyre-storm, but here we are. Nobody asked for these crappy maps and useless and comical customizations, but here we are. Jamming things down people’s throats is an effective way to obliterate the fan base. Gg DICE.

Whilst some may share your view, others do not.

You do not speak for everyone and therefore the correction above is all you can say.

yeah, but it’s the unlocks, if we are forced to play for unlocks then that’s just ridiculous. Why don’t they just add these unlocks to the shipments page.

Firestorm is like War of The Worlds. The crusty old Battlefield players are merrily going about their business. But somewhere out there millions of eyes are watching.

I am actually excited to see how Firestorm turns out.

I am enjoying Apex currently even though not a BR fan.

But the vibe of the Firestorm trailer had more of a WW2 feel to it. Kind of a light hearted secret weapons feel to it. Comic book WW2 feel. And it’s actually a different mode unlike the 6 or 7 versions of Conquest they have now. And unlike those vanilla modes this one actually looks like it will have received a lot more thought.

I didn’t buy BFV so maybe that’s why this has me excited. IT’s something that might cause me to get the game even though I’m no BR fan. I’m a fun fan.

_ **"I don’t like something therefore you can’t like it** _

That’s the logic here.

Pretty simple; don’t like it don’t play it. You can kick and scream and carry on all your want; people wanted a BR mode in Battlefield. How quickly do we forget all those threads just on the forums alone calling for it? I remember cos I was against it because BR doesnt fit with the objective that bf is going for (a team based shooter). Even scavenger and gun game modes added in BF3/4 where team based. Remember squad deathmatch?

I’m not really a fan of BR modes especially those that don’t even work; but I’ll try out firestorm. Why not it’s more content for me to play. Some of you bf players would do well to play something other then conquest for once. If I don’t like it I won’t play it and if I do enjoy it all play if alongside conquest, ops, dom, tdm etc.

No amount of denial and tantrums is gonna see firestorm cancelled/removed. YOU can only voice YOUR sole opinion. Given how small this forum actually is; see plenty of support for the mode on social media and discord so this “no one wants this” is just blantent lies and you know it.

Yes we want more content for the main course, the multiplayer; yes we want bugs fixed etc but no amount of posts on the forums are gonna change any of that.
