Battlefield 6 Beta |OT| Open Beta/Closed Weapons.

Fake said:
Playing right now. The gunplay feels fine. My problem are the maps. To much singular in some areas. You get asked to be shot.

There are some really terrible design choises for the map layout.

And is funny that you need to maintain the start button of the Dualsense to see the scoreboard. This is like 'Ok, I'll put scoreboards this time, but will be a loads of layers and obstacles to reach scoreboard'.

Speak of, there are a loads of visual glitches. I'll give a pass because is the BETA, but they are there on base PS5.

Bots are useless and became more aparent when people start to ragequit.

There are odd things like, you take the same amount of time to capture a flag with one person vs loads.

It was taking the same time when I and more like 20 folks on a single flag.

Overall is a mix bag. Gunplay fine, Classes are good, not amazing. Level design meh.

Hope gets a big improve by the time this game launch.

OST is meh, but you can skip.

Yes, came searching for this comment.

I 100% agree. I played 3 differents maps, and they were meh. BF2042 was more memorable on that regards, its a beta though
 
Man i dont see how people are level 20 already, i played allllllllllllll day and i'm only level 13 :/

These challenges take FOREVER to complete, especially the recon spot challenge.

This is the first beta I've put in over 5 hours and I'm busy as can be today. I'm blown away. I'm happy Dice fixed their stupid woke problems and hired some fans of the BF series to make the game.

Weird, maybe the first time this forum has ever said this, but great job EA Games!
 
Is there armour upgrades or something? Why is it that when I have a maxed out LMG and spray someone it takes 5-6 shots to kill them but they can shoot me and I'm dead in 2 shots? I get that an LMG has faster but less damaging bullets, but it feels like anything but an AR at midrange equals instant death in fights.

What! The recon is the easiest one lol, you literally aim at people with any gun

if you're playing breakthrough, i dont believe the iberian map is in that mode. conquest has all 3 maps.

That map is on breakthrough as well. It's weird though, sometimes I get locked into a rotation of just the 2 other maps as well. Quitting out and joining a new game usually fixes that though.

LMG sucks long range, mid range is questionable too. Honestly have the best luck with hip fire close range.
 
Crossplay is only on or off, no controller only. The PC people I see when I am on PS5 or Xbox, are they on controller?

Game seems really good. The main modes are all different enough that you can swap between them when bored and it isn't like CoD where it's just the same horse shit no matter which mode you pick.

Also incredible sound design. Zamps has done it again. Now go work on Titanfall 3.

Check rof.. LMG are nowhere the fastest firing guns in the game. Close range and you're toast. Mid range it's pretty good, especially that 110, it's a laser.

i've played 20 hours of the beta most of which is on breakthrough and i've never seen that map. ever. only on conquest. that's some astronomical odds.

I know and its still taking forever im at like 216/300 after playing all damn day. Some of that time I worked on other challenges but damn the recon takes forever. Prob partly because the glint from the scope is blindingly bright and gives away my position. So... maybe i should use iron sights for that instead? Hmm
 
winning a tight back-and-forth the entire match conquest by eleven tickets is fun

Early Access. I've been playing for three days.
 
Pretty fun actually...

Connected my mouse and keyboard to the ol' PS Pentagon for the lulz and had a blast. Silky smoof 60 fps on the old machine.
 
Played like 2 hours and really enjoyed it.
I liked the maps, it looked and ran pretty well on base PS5, the connection and lag was decent considering I basically live in the ass of the world, and I didn't have any technical issues aside from getting stuck on the environment once and having to kill myself.

I'll probably go back to it tomorrow to check out the vehicles which I didn't really play around with today.

My one nitpick is that I still don't like the Deploy Beacon being put in annoying, hard to reach and almost glitched out locations. Specially on that more open map in the mountains.

Man, the smoke nades look great and feel awesome to use. Especially for Support. Popping smoke when someone dies out on the open and rezzing them safely never gets old.

The pop sound and effect is really satisfying. Anyone who doesnt play this game with a good headphone, doing it a disservice. When i first put on my headset, felt like im in a middle of a war. 2042 fumbled that too. They improved it with patches, but it never sounded as good as this game

I can't get my head around what the devs are doing this generation with 5-6X the power of a PS4. Battlefield 1 looks incredible at the same resolution range and sightly worse FPS. I get that the CPU is now busy with the physics but what the fuck is that 10-12-16TF GPU doing?
 
Are they adding more maps next week? The two city maps are kind of shitty. Too small for 64 players. The mountain map is fucking awesome. Thats what I want more of and that map barely pops up in rotation. The netcode seems great one match, and shit the next. Hoping we see an improvement build next week. Other than that, game feels very good.
 
Runs pretty good on base ps5, which honestly surprised me. Only complaint is the maps, they seem smaller than previous entries. Cairo is too much of a clusterfuck for me. Other than that, I'm having fun.
 
I do wish the characters stood out a little more from the backgrounds like the 360 gen games. I know the lighting has improved a lot since those days but it also makes it harder for my old eyes to see the enemies lol.

It looks great, but the lightning and shadows are so-so. The destruction is incredible, but a lot of lights are just not projected into the game world, which limits immersion. RTRT would be a god send, but I guess you would need 5080+ to run this properly.

So we've spend one generation and about 10TF in lightning. Idk, I feel like the priorities of the devs this generation are missing the point.
 
When the game works it really works, have been enjoying it.

That said, some times things just feel off.

Dying around corners
Dying in what seems like 1-2 frames when there shouldn't have been enough time for all those hits to register
Having what looked like multiple good hits but not killing an enemy (the damage log should show your damage as well if applicable)

Hopefully they get lots of good data from the beta to tweak things.

Yeah ive always hated the city maps.
 
Man, this sucks. The beta will end in 1 day and I wont be able to play till next week. I already bought the game too lol.

I am just having so much fun with domination and I cant wait to play team deathmatch ( not into the super big battles ), but the game is just amazing. The movement, the killing. Everything is fucking great. I love this game.

I am really loving the small maps for something like Domination. They are perfect in terms of size.

I always end up on top the 3. very satisfying
