DISCUSSION: Battlefield V: Firestorm

People keep saying what Battlefield is about as above, “epic, huge scale battles” when talking about BR but conveniently forget about TDM.

Whilst I am no fan of BR modes in general, Firestorm is more ‘Battlefield’ than TDM to me.

Unlike some people though (not necessarily the person quoted here mind), I don’t demand that either mode be binned because whilst I may not care for them, I know others do.

Dice should only include tdm in bfVI. It is the only mode that doesn’t require zerging.

I like it but I would like them to borrow a little bit more from both Apex and pubg.

Absolute rubbish, four of us tried it out as a squad last night.
Contrived concept already available in lots of different flavours. Not BF!
Please let’s hope its the end of this experiment and we go back to development of new maps and missions.

But golly gee… arent you excited to drive the tractor?

Tried playing what everyone is so hyped about - Was my first and last time playing BR.

A total RNG campfest. I don’t understand why was it necessary to add those stupid RNG systems. I’ve heard it was going to be fair and even fight, it’s anything but that. People who are lucky to find pink weapons instantly get an advantage over everyone else.

Why couldn’t they leave all guns at default settings or apply certain specs to them, or just allow players to pick the specialization they want for them so that when player drops and finds a gun, that gun will have his specializations applied.

Same goes for armor. You could go 1 v 1 against someone and they will win only because they sucked up more bullets than you because of higher level armor.

Total mess of a mode.

I dont get it either, but maybe i am too old and this is what the ‘kidz’ like in games these days. There is obviously always an element of luck in all BF games (all games really) but the fact 2 players can land in the same spot with 2 buildings - one goes to building A the other building B. Building A has a pistol and a health pack, building B has grenades+LMGs+Panzerfausts. Hmmmm, who is going to win that contest 99 out of 100.

True. My first solo round (first Best regards round ever in fact) last night I dropped into a house, got a pistol - might even have been a liberator- and met a guy with a 12g. You can tell how that ended up…

In other words, you were unlucky.

That is a very interesting observation that I had never considered!
Perhaps because TDM is like if it does not exist for me

Exactly. This is the worst thing you can say about any game that includes skill based ganeplay. Not ‘outplayed’ or ‘outgunned’, no, it’s just 'unlucky. This word takes any thrill of competition and throws it out the window.

That’s Battle Royale.

JOKE.

I haven’t played BFV or BFV Firestorm yet, but I will give it a shot. I do play Apex though, and there are aspects of BFV that put me off playing it, such as the revive mechanics, attrition and dragging although dragging wasn’t implemented in the end. What’s weird about that is that revives take ages in Apex and I guess there is attrition in the form of having to scavenge for ammo.

The difference is that I’m not used to those aspect of gameplay in Battlefield. So your comment game me an idea.

I wonder if it would be possible to add a battle royal game mode to legacy Battlefield titles such as BF3? I think a lot of players would be very interested in that. Or even a Bad Company battle royal.

If only Battlefield titles after BF2 could be ‘modded’.

Don’t like BR’s? - don’t play them
/thread

Well blops has blackout. It is the first cod game i played in mp, cause bfv is what it is. First 5 hours I felt the same. Now I have more than 50 and I enjoy it a lot. It’s another game.
First be careful where you land. Players go towards best looting places. You should know that items are randomly generated in different locations so if in a game you ve found armour in one place, in the next game chances are you wont find any.

So avoid crowded places. Loot for better gear and stay alive. Charging like a madman or thinking I will respawn in 2 seconds is not true here.
Cod has a mode with BR respawn is called Hot Pursuit. Probably the best BR mode, even campers are forced to play agressively cause circle will eat them alive. Sadly Bf has only solo and quads. So if you have no decent squad, play solo for couple days. Chances are you will like it. If you play quads, you should be very careful. Where is one must be also his teammates.

T - Terrible
R - Rubbish
A - Abysmal
S - Sucks
H - Horrendous

??!

I dont know why u cant understand the this game mode

It is nothing about not understanding the game mode i think they grasp the mode quite well , it is more about where the fun is hiding in a game mode that is partially based on loot RNG and therefore luck based at least in the initial part of a round .

Only ever played PUBG in terms of BR games but that was the same and I think added to the experience. No just running to where you know the best weapons are. Sometimes all you have is a frying pan and you’ve gotta cave someone’s head in with it to get a weapon or you’re buggered.
