I need to uninstall it too (for more HD space) since I have already given my disc away, and I have never done that before, I still have my BF Bad Company’s from XBOX360. See you in BF 4 if you own it.
Funny how my feedback posts never got responses directly or via patch updates yet this social thread has more EA responses than all of my other posts combined, and not because of the topic, but because of the number of views the post recieved so it has to be reported up weekly to get a check in the block in their update reports.
I’ve uninstalled this game like 3 times now, but as I apparently hate myself I keep reinstalling hoping next time I’ll have fun and maybe I’ll see what it is that’s so good about bfv that so many people seem to defend.
But I do care about OP’s feelings on the matter as I remember him being extremely involved in the community, doing giveaways and such. And he’s not alone, I know so many longtime vets who’ve thrown up their hands with the franchise that the culture I remember when I first started is all but unrecognizable to me now. And it’s not been replaced with a better one.
I am in and out of here all the time too, I have spent so much of my time playing and enjoying this franchise, I really want to be able to enjoy it again now but the state of the game makes it really hard. I am the only one left from my twenty man BF2 clan that still enjoys playing BF.
I think that says it all, they didnt stop gaming either just stopped enjoying battlefield.
I understand you. I sometimes think about returning to BF1, I enjoyed that game way more than BF V.
For me BF1 is better in so many ways.
Better maps in BF1, the only maps I like in BFV are Aerodrome (only in Breakthrough and defending as german), Devastation and Panzerstorm (only in Breakthrough). In BF1 I found almost all maps well designed and with epic gameplay and ambientation.
In BF1 elite classes and behemoths gave the game more “personality” and despite the hate of a lot of people I found them a good addition and them protagonize a lot of epic moments.
In BF1 assault class was good and the most used class but not a jack of all trades master of all trades like it is in BFV, the only thing they lack is a scope in the pistols…
The TTD, TTK, netcode or whatever related to fast dying in BFV is garbage, I don’t know if the problem is TTD, TTK or netcode, the only thing I know is I’m dying in a decime of second most of the times in this game, in BF1 I had time to react to enemy fire by firing them back or taking cover, in this game I have “WTF deaths” all the time.
Absurd “meta gameplay” behaviours that make this game feel ridiculous at times. Jumping for avoiding shots like a Quake game, ADAD spam,…
In BFV the custom loadout of the classes is worse than BF1, you cannot combine the gadgets in the way you want, you have three predefined gadgets for each slot, you cannot combine them as you want like you did in BF1.
The only thing in which BFV is better than BF1 is the tank gameplay, which is more satisfactory in BFV and minor things like character customization.
You might wanna think after the fail of BF5 they might learn a thing or two and stop trying to make it a whole new game while messing up everything they change. But when I look at the recent changes made to the chat filter…
I been asking for BC3 long before we got BF3,BF4,Hardline,SWBF1,BF1,SWBF2,BF5. But yeah i’m worried they will botch it. Also possibly next year ? Only a one year gap from BF5? Also why they only hyping PS5 in the video? I read a article PS5 doesn’t even top XBOX2 anaconda at all. Anaconda has more GPU and memory. PS5 only tops the low end cheap $250 XBOX2. Unless the spec’s change. Not to start a console war. Just going by the article. I’m sure specs could change. But ya would think not. Since most likely these system have to be already in the process of being developed by now. Companies need dev kits to get games out before end of next year.
Hoping that the company that created this Joke called BF V magically creates their next Shooter like the second Coming of Christ, is like moving back to your abusive partner because he/she promised you everything will be different now. Unlike the last two times…
I’m gonna disagree with you there. You make the effort to post the issues in the bugs section yet get no response. Only until you make a post in general that gathers momentum is when you get noticed..
OP does not feel entitled - just expects a response, as do I
My problems with BFV are mostly not about gameplay, for the most part I think the game runs quite well (the poor network performance notwithstanding) and most of the design choices I dislike are relatively minor. What does make me unhappy is the policies EA has applied to the game–no rented servers, live service, weak anti-cheat being the big three for me. In the long run I think those things will hurt this game badly, and if they’re repeated in BF6 then that might be a game I don’t buy.
If I stop having fun in BFV then I’ll stop playing, I’ve walked away from dozens of games over the years, PUBG being a recent example. But I sure won’t waste time coming here to remind people I’ve uninstalled, that’s like calling up your ex-girlfriend every now and then to tell her how happy you are without her–it’s weird.
There are a lot of valid criticisms of this game and the companies behind it posted here, I agree with many of them. But there is also some theatrical nonsense posted by folks who seem to have developed an emotional need to rant and rave over this game, and some of them are on the disingenuous side. Nobody who survived the first year of BF4 could honestly believe that BFV isn’t in way, way better shape than BF4 was at this point. The big difference between those two games is the horrible business model for BFV has resulted in a trickle of added content, whereas BF4 had twice as many maps at the same point in its development and ended up being three times the size it was at launch.
The worst thing is that I suspect EA knows they’ve made a game that will be smaller and have a shorter lifespan, and they’re okay with that, it’s actually what they wanted to do. We the players care more about the quality and longevity of BF games more than EA does. They just want to sell lots of copies and then have everyone buy lots of skins and then uninstall BFV and buy BF6 in a couple of years, disposable games are now what they want to make. Players care about games, corporations care about profits, and this particular corporation doesn’t even seem to know that a quality game that’s played for years could be very profitable indeed. Damn shame.
The problem is, they do respond in general. But OP directly said “this social thread has more EA responses than all of my other posts combined.” First it was “They don’t talk to us” and it’s turned into “They don’t talk to me” and that’s not something OP is entitled to or has justified.
