i don’t care about this fortnite crap
BR mode will get as much love as co-op mode. Lol. Who the F asked for co-op mode???
Alright folks let’s knock it off with editing other people and posting thinly veiled vulgar comments. Keep it on topic. Disagreeing with people is fine, some people may like the new mode some of you might not, that’s fine you’re all entitled to your opinions but keep it clean or I’m locking the thread.
Did not watch the westie trailer of it, not looking good by the sounds of the comments.
Funny, Criterion’s take on Firestorm feels more like a Battlefield title than DICE’s whole regular BF MP experience.
Not really, let’s be honest.
In forums like this a phrase such as, “Nobody wanted this” can safely be taken to mean, “I didn’t want this”–some folks tend to act as if they’re speaking for a lot of others, maybe even everyone.
I can think of several long-time BF fans who have been looking forward to Firestorm. Can’t say I’m one of them however, but if this mode injects some life into BFV then maybe it will be a good thing. And if this mode runs better than the rest of BFV, perhaps some folks in Stockholm should start thinking about their long-term employment prospects. I for one hope EA is looking into someone other than DICE Sweden for BF6.
With today’s EA, sadly you’re right. They see the staggering income from games like Fortnite and PUBG and they ask themselves why spend years developing and expanding a big, complex game like BF once was when they can do less expensive but highly lucrative games where the money comes from selling evil clown costumes to players who don’t want anything more complex than TDM?
In theory a BR mode where you have to scavenge for weapons and ammo puts everyone on an equal footing in terms of weapons, there are no noobs with entry-level guns facing vets with tricked-out superweapons. Learning to search for weapons and other gear and sharing with teammates so everyone has what they need is an interesting part of the game. In the BR game I played, PUBG, you do go into spectator mode after you die, you can even offer useful tactical advice based on what you can see and hear.
Obviously it can be frustrating to die in the first few minutes and then watch your team play without you for the next twenty or thirty minutes. On the other hand, when you survive to the very end and you know it’s just you and your teammates (or maybe just you) and several enemies in a tiny area and what you do in the next few moments will determine who wins–well I can honestly say that no game ever got my heart pounding and my hands sweating like PUBG. I can still remember the first few times I got that last kill to win it all, in some cases when all my teammates were down, it’s quite a rush.
As you say, it’s not for everyone, just as TDM or Rush or Chain Link or whatever are not for everyone. BF is a big house with a lot of rooms, everybody should be able to find something they like.
Must be sweet to be able to predict the future.
Nope, still not tried it.
Same here and are not going to
Not too interested in BR games-- scavenging for loot in a competitive shooter seems dumb to me. But its part of the game that I bought so I’ll give it a try.
Not surprised seeing as it isn’t out till tomorrow.
Wasnt expecting anything less from Firestorm. Same mass of campers that emigrated from base game to the BR mode.
Yeah, it honestly doesn’t even sound fun. Apex is great with a trio because there really isn’t much camping. TTK is pretty high, but you can melt people when upgraded.
Honestly, if this is the same TTK as the base game good luck lol.
Can you roadkill with choppers tho? It would be worth a go just for that.
Battlefield V crash every time I play to Firestorm.
Seriously, CoD did this correct and has seperate stats. I want to see my actual win/loss and KD for BR, how is this not seperate to begin with? ¯_(ツ)_/¯ idea
The fact your SPM/KPM/KD all count is insane, and the lack of a win% stat for Firestorm kinda makes it not even worth playing.
Didnt they say stats were separate?
