Battlefield General - Discuss the series here

[StacticShock]

I'm tired of seeing these people and the Youtube content creators say that "the new Battlefield will kill CoD this time for real". I would rather have a proper Battlefield game than a "CoD killer".

what killed cod?
cod.
what killed bf?
bf.

but try telling that to a fucking jeet or diversity hire.

 

[Chieftain Coke Peanut]

these companies want their cake and eat it too so they add poz

Dice is Swedish, I'm sure most of their devs are true blue believers in DEI bullshit. Sad to say but it's here to stay until EA tells them to knock it the fuck off, and the chances of that are slim to none.

 

[The Last Stand]

The game desperately needs strategems and resource float to make the battle more than just "spawn in and rush objective".

Isn't that the point of Battlefield? PTFO (play the fucking objective.) Otherwise, just play Call of Duty. At least that's what people tell me in comms.

It used to, but the last two games - especially BF2042 - didn't reward you for playing the objective.

Please, just make BF4 again. It's that simple guys.

Edit: I don't care how shiny the mp trailer is, I'm not sold until Day 1 shows if the game is playable.

Here's the official multiplayer reveal. (Includes optional in-game purchases.)

The year is 2027. Major European countries have left NATO, leading the United States and other countries with private militaries in the brink of war. Does that mean factions are returning?

 

[Dumpster dived waifu]

I don't know if I like assault losing med kits in favor of an extra primary, and support getting the med kits.

 

[The Last Stand]

So Levoultion is now "tactical destruction," similar to Rainbow Six Siege.

Edit: I don't care how shiny the mp trailer is, I'm not sold until Day 1 shows if the game is playable.

I like how the stage surrounds the audience.

I don't know if I like assault losing med kits in favor of an extra primary, and support getting the med kits.

Correct me if I'm wrong, I don't remember assault having med kits. Battlefield V, maybe, but each class had a set amount of self med kits.

 

[Total Annihilation]

9 maps on launch (including a remaster of Operation Firestorm from BF3).
Portal returns, but I haven’t heard details yet.
Edit: it appears portal includes a map/asset editor, with what I think is full XP gain on it from what they were saying. The map they showed for it was Downtown from Hardline I think.

In BF3 and BF4, assaults had the med kits. Never played V or WW1.

 

[The Last Stand]

Nine maps at launch with an updated Portal mode to customize existing maps. Think Forge from Halo. I could've swore I saw a flying tank. Now they're showing a sneak peek of the campaign.

This looks surprisingly good and fun. I haven’t played Battlefield since BF3 Beta. I’m wondering if this mode has been in previous BF.

 

[Blackstar]

250k live viewers. Open Beta next weekend! Early access for whoever signed up to labs before this (nice, I signed up but never got anything)

 

[The Last Stand]

Battlefield 6 will release October 10, 2025. Okay, now it'll have a chance before Call of Duty and GTA VI. There will be three stages of weekend betas for August. "Early access" if you can catch a streamer play the BF6 beta for 7-9.

 

[Dumpster dived waifu]

I'll definitely be trying the beta, but considering the history of BF launches, my expectations are low.

 

[likeacrackado]

Mystery meat protag, CIA girlboss screeching overdramatic exposition. Looks like SP is a hard pass. FPS "content creators" disgust me so ill wait for the open beta to check it out.

 

[The Last Stand]

Man said "looks like a firestorm." We all know what he's talking about. Oh, they said "back to their roots."

This looks surprisingly good and fun. I haven’t played Battlefield since BF3 Beta. I’m wondering if this mode has been in previous BF.

I like what I saw with the modern military setting. 2027 is modern warfare, I feel old. Brooklyn and Egypt looks like great maps to play with their contrasting urban settings. I may not be able to play the first or second beta (unless it could be streamed,) I hope to catch the third one.

Only two betas, but the first one is locked for the first two days to labs subscribers.

Yeah. I remember playing the first game at a lan party along with the Star Wars mod.

As long as they don’t shove a bunch of stupid skins and celebrity endorsements, it should be fine. And please don’t do the game like 2042

I was half hoping the lady would’ve been older and paler.
