> [@bootsam2](#): > > But it does lack the ability to play with a strategic purpose, This. There no real reason to go fighting. IN the war the germans wanted to take countries and defeat armies. IN this war, the soldiers just want to farm newbs to show off a high k/d or complete the latest assignment that says use xyz gun with ABC option to get 20 kills while on your back shooting with your off hand straddled across the flag zone border as a Norweigan on the Fjell map. They could care less whether their country defeats the other country or not. ---

I don’t feel like I’m in WW2. I feel like it’s a generic battle in 1940’s Europe. It has a completely different feel than BF1, where I felt like I was running through WW1 era trenches. I felt emersed in WW1. In BF5. I don’t really feel connected to my team. It feels like like a squad verse squad battle, if that makes sense. The graphics look different, more arcade-ish yet still pretty good. Being colorblind, its extremely hard identifying targets. Far more difficult than BF1. I’m not referring to the limited spotting either. Just my $0.02. ---

For me it could become the perfect Battlefield if it would have: - iconic ww2 weapons like Kar98/Lee/M1 and MP40/Thompson/Sten for more/most classes - private servers (like back with BF 4 - 24/7 maps and higher tickrates) - hardcore mode (no 3d spotting, slight movement speed reduct. realistic wounding / bleeding system, factional weapons) - more factions (us, russia) - more scenarios (normandy, bastogne, afrika, russia, sicily, germany, pacific) - I’d also like to have bigger squads - like up to 8. - some bug fixing - anti cheat ---

They should have called it BF5, not BFV. I thought it was Battlefield Vietnam, and almost didn’t get conned out of £55. Oh wait!.. ---

The moment they upgrade the anticheat to detect these cheats, 2 hours later there is an update to the cheat program that is undetectable. Just the way it is on PC. 90 hours in and I’d only seen 2 hackers, which was pretty damn good in my opinion. This week I’ve seen 3 alone. People think hackers means people shooting through walls, 100 percent headshots, never dying, etc. They don’t realize the nuance the new hacks have. ESP is probably the most common and hardest to detect hack, it shows you the location of every player on the map. These players aren’t going to go 40-2 unless they’re also really good shots, but it gives them such a huge tactical advantage. Like you said, it’s easy to figure out. Hide somewhere where you know you 100 percent cannot be seen, don’t make any noise, and watch. If someone comes right up and shoots you, and it happens more than once, they’re using the radar hack/ESP. Also, the aimbot hacks aren’t 100 percent headshots anymore, they change it up so they won’t get detected by algorithms. The other hard to notice hack is the health/damage buff, where they do more damage but take less damage. Not sure what happened this week, but hackers are out in numbers. ---

I just reached rank 50 and I feel that I’ve already seen everything the game has to offer. I went back to BF1 last night and I just had way more fun than in my last 20 games on BFV. I mean it doesn’t help that BFV is still riddled with bugs and that the class and weapon balance are completely out of the window. However, I’ll definitely come back once DICE fixes the more pressing issues. But right now the game’s just not good enough to stick around in my opinion. PS: Yesterday I tried to boot up BF4 on PS4 again (because people apparently still treat it like it’s the second coming of Christ, so it has got to be great right?). I immediately regretted installing it after playing a couple of games lol. I forgot how awfully balanced that game was (from maps to classes). Also it seems that you can only find games on Lockers, Goldmud and Shanghai and all the server admins will ban you for using engineer lol. So much for the best BF in recent memory right? ---

I don’t really like it. The basic mechanics if attrition, the removal of spotting, very fast TTK etc. don’t add up to a good Battlefield game for me. It’s very slow, but not really in a thoughtful way, just campy. If this didn’t have the Battlefield name and was like $40 I’d be happy with it, but as it is it’s a huge disappointment. ---

It’s not as fun as past BF games, started really going down hill with bf1. ---

Need more maps, provided for the community at a faster rate. things can get pretty repetitive if we play the same 8-9 for 3 months. Yet, i like this game 🙂 [Previous page](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/ok-so-what-does-everybody-think-of-bfv/105910.md?page=11)
