At least the game is more complete than 2042 was at launch, they had to actually finish that game (didn't) instead of properly refining it, lolQuick impressions after 3 or so hours.
Looks good and runs well. Bodes well for release. (PC, 5080 mobile)
Guns need more recoil. Need to try some more but once you start adding attachments they become lasers. .
Maps are small to medium. Not very Battlefield but still play well. Not worried as they have at least 2 big ones in for launch then I'm presuming more from that leak coming shortly after launch. will be a complete non issue a few months in.
Classes need some work. Assault seems OP
Shit needs a good few balance patches.
Overall very positive for a Beta and my thoughts may change over the weekend as I only scratched the surface. I guessing a few will moan that they turned it into COD. As a returning Battlefield and long time COD player, I don't think it plays much like COD at all.

Yep can't wait to have a decent session on it later. The stuff I listed is only minor gripes.To me it plays like a modern BFV, which is awesome. Guns need more recoil i agree and more big maps. Foundation is fantastic, game is pretty polished and beta is smooth sailing so far
Lmfao beta just started man. Let noobs get past the learning curve. BF has been gone for a while (no one played 2042 and it underperformed, BFV had low sales) and there's a whole new generation of gamers that have to catch up on the gameplay loop. We just need to push the PTFO memes from back in the day and they'll get it.Teamplay is very weak so far, only buffoons running around, not reviving, not reparing tanks, nothing...
Tried Breakthrough and Closed weapons conquest and it's always one team curb stomping the other.
Last game I ended up 3rd with 6 kills and I joined it when it was halfway finished already...
BFV had some of the best recoil patterns in the series. Actually random/variable, and some guns kicked like crazy. I remember that was one of the biggest selling points of the game back before launch. That, fortifications, the crouch sprinting were literally the only things I wanted to persist from that game. Are you talking about 2042?BF5 also had this issue.
Bye then.So far it feels like a AA multiplayer game, I rather go play 2042.
I'm picturing you with a half drank bottle of whiskey in one hand driving home, cigarette in your mouth, slamming on the steering wheel, sweating, "Just give me a fucking win just ONCE God fucking Damn It, wife took the kids, the dogs, I NEED this EA product to SELL, PLEASE GOD!"To the people complaining about the maps...
Remember BF3's only beta map for a brief period was fucking Operation Metro.
I have faith that the base game will have far more variety in verticality. As someone whose last beloved BF was 4 (1 was good but V and 2042 were fucking awful imo), this game actually feels good. It actually feels like DICE got its shit pushed in to finally make something on the level of BF4 again. I'm genuinely excited to go home after work and play this, which is a feeling I haven't experienced in years for any game.
Just please put a goddamn server browser in as well for base game stuff DICE. That's it.
No, it's a bit slow. I think they're just backed up. I got my code at around an hour. Just let it run until you get a notification.Watched the 30 minutes and it did not spit out a code, i'm assuming cause i already got one previously?
Ok so i definitely need to adjust to this i havent played BF in a while and i feel like the TTK is near instant... while at the same time i am unloading full clips into people and they just laugh at me and kill me with one bullet. Previous match i literally unloaded 4 shotgun blasts into someone maybe 10 feet in front of me and they turned around jumped and killed me in one shot. Like wtf is with this inconsistency... kinda driving me crazy. Tanks feel great so far. Weapons feel good it just seems like there is some sort of hit registration thing goin on kinda driving me crazy.
Everything is locked for me too.Log in servers struggling plus people losing EA being looked into

There is a product called 2042 for you then - Don MattrickSo far it feels like a AA multiplayer game, I rather go play 2042.
no. just idle in the chat and you'll get a notification when it comes thruDo you need to be twitch subscriber to get a code?
Yeah but this beta has 4 maps and 3 of them are really small. If these 3 are the only small maps then its okay, but it was still a bad decision not including atleast 1 big map in the betaTo the people complaining about the maps...

Surely they'll drop a big map on the last day.........Yeah but this beta has 4 maps and 3 of them are really small. If these 3 are the only small maps then its okay, but it was still a bad decision not including atleast 1 big map in the beta
nah, the manhattan map is next week but its the smallest lolSurely they'll drop a big map on the last day.........
New York will be the map on the second weekend... remains to be seen how big it will be though. Indeed the maps feel quite small so far. Sucks a bit when you're mostly playing recon.Surely they'll drop a big map on the last day.........
Thanks! Got the code. Current position 10,000Yeah but this beta has 4 maps and 3 of them are really small. If these 3 are the only small maps then its okay, but it was still a bad decision not including atleast 1 big map in the beta
Really? That's a shame. I was gonna play PC today and tomorrow but wanted to try it on XSX on the weekend.Performance on Series X is terrible. Really disappointed.
How's performance on PS5 Pro?
Yeah, this isn't a Battlefield 6 issue or even a Battlefield in general issue. It's simply a player base issue.Yup, a story as old as time in the Battlefield universe, lmao.
Much like a single person going to a multi person vehicle and driving off, lol.
Performance on Series X is terrible. Really disappointed.
How's performance on PS5 Pro?
PS5 Pro is smooth, but , it did crash once, their was some weird graphical flickering that resolved itself, fans not going crazy.Performance on Series X is terrible. Really disappointed.

What's the game doing on your series x? I'm having zero issues on mine, though I put it in performance mode so maybe that's why?

Nevermind. I didn't have my console set to 120 hz mode.PS5 Pro is smooth, but , it did crash once, their was some weird graphical flickering that resolved itself, fans not going crazy.
Could you elaborate?So far it feels like a AA multiplayer game, I rather go play 2042.
Sure, he's retarded.Could you elaborate?
Lol thanks, that code worked!Sure, he's retarded.
Spare Code here.

Just make that a revive count +1 in K/DYeah, this isn't a Battlefield 6 issue or even a Battlefield in general issue. It's simply a player base issue.
It's annoying, but it is what it is.
Yuuuup. It's annoying to veterans that have played the series a LONG time, but then you also expect that behavior, so it's whatever. I bought 1942 at launch and by the time Vietnam came out I was already expecting certain behavior from new players, lol.Yeah, this isn't a Battlefield 6 issue or even a Battlefield in general issue.

....It's everywhere? I mean, the game is almost too chaotic at times with all the explosions and debris, but it's awesome IMO, lol.Where's the destruction?
Where the verticality?
Siege of Cairo sucks!
It's the COD mentality. Nobody cares about anything but their K/D nowadays. BF is the game where you can have a negative K/D but be higher on the scoreboard then somebody with a 10:1 because you play the objective and do stuff like revives/supplying/spotting and this is how it should be.Yuuuup. It's annoying to veterans that have played the series a LONG time, but then you also expect that behavior, so it's whatever. I bought 1942 at launch and by the time Vietnam came out I was already expecting certain behavior from new players, lol.
I still get annoyed by folks that are horribly anal about their K/D in a BF game where sometimes you just need to throw yourself on points to help capture them, lol.
I think the sound is really underrated. Battlefield has always had amazing sound but so far in the beta the positional audio has been amazing. I can track people really well.I've played it a bit more now and I like it better. The sound is really good and I also like that there's so much cover everywhere. However, sometimes the enemies are almost impossible to see.
Yes but it seems to be bugged. Drops are on all beta though.Were they giving away more codes on Twitch today or is that done?
My understanding is that of the 9 maps announced:To the people complaining about the maps...
