For the life of me, I can’t seem to see enemies in BF5, especially if they’re prone. They blend in too well with the environment.
And even when they’re moving on the darker maps, they just kinda disappear as well if they start zig zagging.
THis game is encouraging either slow movement around the map, checking every single corner or just camping, unlock the MG42 and just go prone everywhere you go. Which isn’t fun for me.
This coupled with the fact that I’m now forced to go everywhere with teammates or risk guaranteed death on my own means I’m not enjoying this game at all.
No insults telling me to stop playing or shouldn’t have bought the game please. This is my opinion.
And I’ve been a BF gamer since BF3, I love these games, but this one just feels off…
People miss the fact if you cant see them easily they cant see you easily. I play almost entirely solo and manage to maintain a 3+ kdr. Not that it matters, my point is if you use cover flank and play as an ambush warrior you can still do well solo.
I didn’t like how hard it is to see people at first and now I really like it. It does just take time to get used to it and when you do it just feels right.
^I’ve been too lazy to adjust any of that admittedly. As for OP, i considered myself a fairly decent(or at least not crap lol) BF player but iam really struggling on BFV as well. Its a pretty massive adjustment if you’ve never been huge on camping or moving around the map slowly constantly crouching and crawling through grass and hiding and being really careful and patient.
I think games like PUBG would have been good training for that. Or if you liked sniping or playing swat team games and stealth games and that.
I move fast. But try to keep cover if I can. I’ll take a few deaths in a row sometimes but when I get around them its satisfying mowing down players in groups playing “as a team”
The flank is strong use it.
Yeah i agree, i try to flank. Sometimes it works out, other times i get sniped or i will flank three enemies with their backs turned and i’ll make a poor decision and give my position away or something lol.
I try to play with my friends all in discord more often than not, but sometimes the hours i work i have to play with randoms. I complain about the game being slow and campy or requiring patience, and yet at times the close combat feels more like COD, and i was never as good as COD as BF
Eh i dunno, my PC and tv/monitor could use upgrades as well. And i drink too much ^^;
EDIT: excuses much?
You never want to rush an objective in this game. Slow it down a bit, stay close to cover. Any cover, and stay close to your teammates.
You’ll blend in just as much as your enemy. Also avoid bright colour uniforms, and try to change your outfit to blend in with the map. You only have 30 seconds to change your outfit at the beginning of a game.
Also in case you didn’t know. When ever you or an enemy kills someone they get automatically spotted on the minimap. Took me a while to realize that, and it’s helped my game lots.
Nope, not in the slightest, I just want to be able to see enemies clearly, and to be able to react to being shot too, right now it feels like I’m insta dying tbh. IF the incoming patch doesn’t improve things I’m done with BF5
use cover and open your eyes … turn off the filters and motion blur and learn the map location hotspots… from then on its trial and error untill u get the hang of it
if ur blind then i cant help you …this game is so much better without markers and u can actually flank now without the fear of being lit up becouse someone was spamming the spot button
I mean, I’m half blind and I can still see enemies often for the most part. Enough at least to keep a solid 1.8 K/D overall, so I think I’m doing decent.
You just gotta get used to anomilies in the environment, and get your observational skills some training, and you’ll be doing better.
I dont know if you play on PC or console, but try adjusting your screens settings. I crank up brightness and contrast on my TV and that helped a lot. But yeah, I shouldnt have to. Devastation and Rotterdam are the worst maps for me, concerning visibility.
I wish they would just turn up the damage on most of the guns. It takes 2 head shots with ZH-29 to kill the guy. Thats a sniper rifle so in real life it takes one shot to the head. Ill be shooting a guy and he turns around and kills me. The damage is so low on alot of guns and some are so high powered like the Ribeyrolles 1981 or just camp with the MG 42. Really just turn up the damage dice so when you shoot something it dies. That way its shows realism.
Agreed visibility is bad. The graphics are very cluttered. The environment, depending on map and weather, alternates between washed out and bland and hugely contrasting and glaring. Both of which exasperate the cluttered graphics.
I was never a fan of 3D spotting doritos, but the lack of them in combination with the graphics in BF5 make it very frustrating.
Often die to enemies I’ve looked straight through and campers are very hard to spot and so camping is prevalent and very successful.
