-looting a downed enemy with a large inventory needs improvement, looting houses is fine
-inventory needs to be more user friendly
-own footsteps far too loud
-lack of comm rose makes squad work with randoms non existent
-why no dropping as a squad?
-Are stats separate from the base game?
-Why no option to Region search?
-Got killed by a friendly v rocket? Is this design?
Enjoyed a few hours yesterday, map is good, plenty of random loot scattered around
Decent experience
2014-2017 - Zombie -Survival-anything-and-anyone-hype: Done. Noone is talking about it anymore
2018-20xx - Battle-Royal-in-every-possible-scenario-hype: Still on. In a few months/years noone will talk about it anymore.
Lets create the next hype. what would it be when Battle royal is spammed out by every publisher and every gameseries? assassins creed BR, Far cry BR, Need for speed BR? what will be AFTER all of that?
Back to topic: not interested in BR games. and i really hope they dont force us with TOW missions to play that.
not everyone who plays BFV want to play BR (in my eyes not a mode but a different game)
people who come for BR usually won’t play “normal” BFV thru it.
but maybe some of the regular BF players will go for BR…
i don’t know who “we” is but it doesnt matter anyway. people asked for it and ea reacted accordingly. u can like it or hate it but it doesn’t change the fact that its true.
Huge disappointment firestorm, also every time they do a new patch update they screw with the weapons … Tone this down Nerf that!.. get it right EA!.. At first I had a love-hate with the game, now I’m just starting to simply hate… Leave stuff alone, ad new content , only fix the things that are messed up like moving through the environment and getting hung up on every little thing… And bring back hardcore!!! it’s a shame you have to shoot a person five times for them to die, more than twice in the head! Please EA, criterion fix! … Oh yeah now my gun doesn’t register when I’m shooting people even at close range wow,… So inconsistent!
The latency/netcode/one frame deaths are really what ruins this mode for me.
I played several games, spent 80% of my time roaming around. Insta deaths each time, and only got the drop on one guy (who soaked 10 shots and ran of with 70 health).
Looks cool, and the tension it creats is different. But one frame deaths kill any desire to play. Dice will find their inability to fix the netcode/latency problem may ruin both any competitive mode, as well as this.
“UPDATE:
If you’re having issues with matchmaking as a full squad, don’t click PLAY NOW until your squad is full. Otherwise, whatever squad you have at that moment will be the squad. We’re aware of this confusion and working to address it. Thanks.”
i… i…
Me and my buddy duo queued last night, never got any random people to fill up the 2 empty spots. Are you supposed to find 2 randoms and invite them manually ? what gives ?
I quite enjoyed what i played so far. I understand the decision of inflating the HP a little bit, with the current fast ttk it would be just too much for this particular gamemode.
One thing I find mind bogglin though. Everyone and their mother wants duos. But it is a limited time gamemode. ???
Without being disingenuous here to the OP and those who agree with his standpoint. I really feel as though you guys must not have played any other BR games.
Firestorm couldn’t be more typical of the genre. The excitement comes from landing at point youve picked and looting a level 3 weapon with other decent gear. For those that don’t have great gear then bringing down someone who has it and looting it is a great feeling.
If everyone landed and found all the same thing it would basically be deathmatch on a big map. BR is all about the looting.
I was planning to at least give a go but i dont think i’ll bother. I know i wont like it. I hated PUBG. Its just not my thing. I guess if its the only mode people i know play then maybe, but i cant say that it sounds appealing.
