Was I ever wrong!

Same, enjoyed the MW Beta. Game has some issues, but at its core is very solid. Not to mention how smooth it plays compared to BFV. A bit apples to oranges, but I’ve always enjoyed both BF and CoD.

A lot of try-hard campers in the Beta at the moment, hard to get a fair impression of the game.

Not to mention how responsive CoD Dev’s have been compared to DICE. Overall, it looks like the beta was well received.

So the same as every Battlefield game too.

There’s a lot of hate here for a game which few have played; I played the alpha and first beta weekend and had a blast, Modern Warfare captures the feel of the older games but with fresh modern graphics. There really wasn’t much camping at all, the ttk was fine and it played much better than the mess that is BFV, although yes still a bit twitchy and CoD-like, depending on map and mode.

However, the second weekend beta features the 32vs32 ground war. (Not sure why someone above keeps banging on about 50vs50, as 32vs32 is the most we have in BF anyway…)

The devs discussed ground war briefly on a livestream yesterday and confirmed there’ll be tanks, atvs, helicopters and base jumping - which brought back memories of damavand peak. Give it a chance, you may be pleasantly surprised. Hopefully it’ll give DICE a kick up the pants and they’ll be back on form for the next BF; I’d rather forget this one ever happened.

Modern Warfare open beta is now available for everyone to preload on Battle.net

Alright I’ll give it a whirl this weekend but looking at the gameplayvideo that was posted before I can say one thing for certain… people that hated the ap mines in bf v will have a bad time in mw with the claymores.

Almost time for the second Beta round, can’t wait.

Crossplay with xbox, 32 Vs 32, vehicles, let’s give it all a try.

Everyone who pre ordered :confused:

Yea to hell with that! Hoping it’s a great game but I’ll happily wait thx.

I have over 100 kills (my personal count) with claymore already! :hugs:

Put one down, guy dies. Put one back in the EXACT same position, same guy does again! ROFLMAO! He came back for vengeance, and blew up again! Over and over again. So much fun!

Almost time for the crossplay and 32 vs 32 Beta test, hopefully hitreg and sound stay just as good and crossplay feels “fair and balanced”

do you have twitter? if not you should open one to share this kind of comments. this is hardly the right place.

You know this topic is about the new CoD?

And some people that have the “illusion” that “Modern Warfare isn’t going to negatively impact BF at all!”

Things like 32 vs 32 (or maybe even more), vehicles and crossplay in the new COD, if they work smooth, are going to have a huge impact … so worth mentioning in this topic.

I take it you are basing this on YouTube video likes as usual…

No, by actually playing and testing the Alpha and Beta and die hard BF players (that I know, game with an follow on social media) that are all testing and loving it and are all excited forthe things I mentioned … and most are as good as done with BF V.

Basic logic: if Beta 2 runs smooth and enjoyable, there will be a (huge) player shift from BF V to CoD

NLBartmaN I don’t know, I play several games concurrently so if MW gets popular it doesn’t necessarily mean that BF players stop playing since MW and BF will still offer different experiences even with the large game mode being added. I still play BF3\4 in addition to BF5 and for years played Halo, COD, and Gears along side of Battlefield so playing one FPS doesn’t mean that you abandon other FPSs. I think the only people who will truly flee BF5 are the ones who have already stopped playing or just hit their limit with tech issues but they may come back after they get their fill of COD. Regarding the the fact that we’re talking about COD it’s mostly because COD is finally doing something that many of us who used to play COD have wanted for years and the fact that they’re going back to the modern setting which many BF players also want is naturally going to spark intrigue and discussion.

So your mates then?

And one major flaw with your ‘basic logic’ as has been pointed out to you umpteen times is if people don’t like CoD, it does not matter how smooth and enjoyable (subjective) it is, they don’t like CoD!

MW last week was great. Can’t wait for 20 v 20 and 32 v 32.

Two concerns:
-the netcode is good except around corners. Around corners netcode is always the most challenging for devs. Its better in BFV. But every where else MW is better because the ttk is so fast. You never feel robbed of kills, also you die fast every time so don’t care if kills are insta. Unlike BFV which we established has a ttk/TTD sync problem.

-cross play. I know theres aim assist on console. But those of you on console looking forward to playing against PC players you’re in for a rude awakening. You’ll have to have played on both console and PC to know the difference.

Beyond these two concerns I thought last week’s beta was the most fun I had in a game since BF4. Its nice to see the super die hards back on the forums. If BFV was a blank MS DOS screen they’d still defend it.

MW is going to really damage the Battlefield franchise if the 20/20 or 32/32 actually play well.

Luckily you can opt out of cross play though. I’ve played on PC and console, you are correct it is going to be a punishing learning curve to play against pc players on a controller. If I had a better pc I’d have looked at getting it for that but unfortunately I am just gonna play it on PS4.

They also don’t like BF V!

Some just keep playing it (as little as possible) by lack of something else new, now they might get something else.

What is so totally different between BF V and CoD, if they add 32 vs 32 and vehicles?

The gunplay is as good as the same (thanks to the CoD pro player dev), but it just works ten times better in CoD and also sound and visibility are ten times better.

Add crossplay for low populated areas, that will finally have players to play with and having a decent ping while doing that.
