Check this very thread. They've been running Battlefield labs (True Alpha/Beta's) for months. There's footage all over the Net.
Lots of posters have already played it and report positive things.
Edit: Here you go.

What do you mean no? This is what I said in the post you quoted.
The alpha footage looks promising, there is reason to be optimistic.

This one in particular is awesome. Can't wait to try out the beta.

If it's 15-20 hours long then it's 5-10 hours too long. These types of game benefit from being much shorter in length. It's not an RPG.

If they move away from the shitty specialist system back to class loadouts il give it a shot. I hear their still pushing to have unrestricted weapons therefore turning a "class" into a gadget (so the specalist system)
If that changes, cool.

They should do what COD tried for a couple of years. Release the campaign the week before. Generate a bit of hype then the main course to follow.

From the alpha in May as well, 6 months before launch.

Its a meme post everywhere. Tired of looking at it. Crazy to me that some people still acting like the game is a big secret. There are tons of alpha videos out there, you can see the gunplay, you can see the movement, the destruction and the tone. Unless you live under a rock, you should know what to expect from the multiplayer by now. Playing it is another thing, it plays even better than it looks.This being the top user post on the BF6 YouTube video is glorious.

I never pre-order games but I'm probably just gonna say fuck it and actually pre-order this. I like what I see and will undoubtedly sink a lot of hours into MP. Worse case it's buggy near launch but the game looks solid enough otherwise that it will still be solid long term.

Unless its physical and in danger of not being available why pre order? The money is better off in your bank account.
Make a more informed decision nearer launch, at least try the beta imo.

The technical state of 2042 wasn't the core issue at the end of the day. The maps in particular were just not fun to play on. Way to wide open which doesn't lead to interesting and fun battles. Combine that with the sterile futuristic theme and weaponry and it was not great.
This on the other hand looks like BF3/4 with updated graphics. Maps and combat just from the leaked clips already look way better than BF 2042. This will be solid even if it required polishing imo.

ikr. I always "preorder" games when its available to predownload, mostly 1 day before launch just to get the preorder shit if im buying the game anyway

No point of preordering, especially if you're on pc. Guarantee there will be a good deal on a cd key website at launch.

They obviously expected an arable farming conflict on a big field.

Hell yeah, that's my battllefield! Looks a lot slower than 2042.

Trying not to get hyped but signs are looking good.
Plus Vince is an FPS genius. There's a reason they put him at the helm.

My opinion is this:
"Game engine footage. Not actual gameplay."
That about sums it up, really.

In his defense, so as 2042 trailer.

Still just clever scripts nothing more than that... 10 years ago i thought by now we would have some proper destruction physics in BF.

Don't sprint and hold down choke points with large capacity mags and mow them down

Looks good but it doesn't seem like u can level the building something that was great in battlefield company 2 and that came out 15 years ago.
ThisIsMyDog

You know exactly what I mean
The building is destroyed from a completely different side than where the RPG hits it. I just thought that destruction in Battlefield in 2025 would be more like in Teardown.

It's the same as battlefield 3 or 4 destruction, just the front of the building and that's it.

This isn't a Gaza simulator.
Spicy joke aside, it would be impractical to have full destruction on urban maps for gameplay reasons. Wouldn't be much fun for infantry if the map was reduced to rubble like that scene at the end of The Pianist.
I would expect rural or desert maps to have fully collapsable buildings.

Alpha footage looks good.
Weighty tank gameplay seems to be back after the 'sliding on ice tanks' of BF4.
Tap fire seems to be rewarded. Compression is still in there.
The classes look like a return to form.
I only wish there was a stamina gauge to limit all the sprinting nonsense.
Stamina gauge management would fix this on a dime. BF2 had this and I wish it returned.

Now add in semi-realistic graphics, a bunch of land/sea/air vehicles, 64 player multiplayer, and large wide open maps. You would need a supercomputer that 99% of people don't have to be able to handle that kind of destruction, lets not even consider what that would mean for the console versions.
For the purposes of this series the destruction is good enough. The only thing on my wish list right now is large levolution type moments (like large buildings collapsing or map altering events) which I haven't seen in any of the footage yet.

What are you talking about? I have never played a game in this genre (that's not a scripted single player moment) where the tank head flies in the air and crushes a car while also taking out the side of a building in a multiplayer match. This new destruction is incredible.

Big maps?
Not super familiar with Battlefield franchise, I played 4 quite a bit and Bad Company on and off. How did the other entries deal with it? I don't remember.
I know there are other solutions, troop transports, vehicles, insertion flares, whatever but if you are stuck in the middle of nowhere then sprint seems kinda essential?

No, just you play Insurgency instead.
A tank's turret being up that high should also ring daft and unwanted 2042 physics bells as well, though.

They're brilliant, but too wafery for most other gaming scenarios.

Movement in BC2 was abysmal. You ran like a fat kid in a vat of butter and you couldn't go prone either. I'm not expecting tactical sprint or anything like that but you need decent mobility in games where you're constantly moving from one objective to the next.
