An effective medic is not meant to be akimboing into the fray with SMGs in CQC. Nor looking through a reticule for most of the match. You're meant to be supporting your squad and putting down packs where they are needed, running to revive etc. If you're a sniper you're not really pushing in Rush are you? So unless you have an entire squad of recon you will be miles away from your squad mates.

If you want to use a sniper rifle why not play recon and actually provide recon support for spotting etc? SMG is more subjective but again as your squads health is your main priority you shouldn't be in real close quarters combat unless your squad gets broken through.

Put bluntly, if you're just in a squad farming points on stupid revives and hoping people run over your med packs then it probably isn't a big deal. But if you're playing as a proper squad then it does.

Some of my favourite memories of Battlefield are throwing down health packs and reviving teammates over and over to refund tickets on the meat grinder maps on rush. I could've done with an smg in that scenario.

And snipers are shit at spotting anyway.

I see the Battlefield subreddit is losing the minds over this, but I will reserve judgement until the game launches.

I can recall when there were 15 people sitting at the back of the map on each team spamming mortars. People will gravitate to overpowered things, so the only solution is to make everything viable.

"If you received an RSVP email, and secured your day, you will gradually be invited during your day you selected - not on the hour."

That's what I've read. If that is the case, then they shouldn't have you select a timeframe to get in considering anyone would be waiting for a while past their start time.

I've been accepted for today, and apparently I think you have access all throughout the weekend. Still, no code in my email despite me being on the testing schedule and the RSVP for PS5. There is literally no one to contact for support about this. EA Help is shit since it's run by a chat bot and they just redirect you in circles. Don't bother with the Battlefield Discord as it's a mine field either.

Super frustrating here.

Mine in EU gave me tomorrow for the response thing. Be nice having whole weekend like.

I didn't even know til i looked in here then checked my spam lol

Yea...I have been checking every 10 minutes or so. This is ridiculous lol. I wish they would be more clear in their communication. Support is not there at all.

What time did you get your email? East or west coast?

 

[TonberrysKnife]

 

[KyoZz]

It's good, there are some adjustments to be made but overall it's very solid. Feels like BF3's Back to Karkand for the maps I played.

It did say you'll get the email the day you're in the test.

But my body is ready. I've been getting sick of the wonky shitty Marvel Rivals matchmaking. So this is great

Not getting to play this weekend personally as up visiting my son but his code just arrived now about 10 minutes before his start time so they are coming

 

[TonberrysKnife]

Got the code about 40 minutes ago. I'm in.

 

[Luipadre]

Man... these maps are night and day compared to the shitty 2042 ones. Level design, flow and pacing are so much better its not even funny

 

[cormack12]

Can you guys with access start an impressions thread?

 

[Luipadre]

What time did you get your email? East or west coast?

The invite one or the game code? I got the code like 5 minutes before the test started and the invite email 2 days ago

I redeemed my code in the PS app and told it to download to my PS5 in rest mode. Now I can't find the game when I go to my PS5 and the code has already been redeemed. Anyone having this issue? I don't know where to go to launch it.

Is it not in your purchased library on the console?

 

[FUBARx89]

PS5 friends. What is the size of the download?

Look for BF Labs

 

[MCasey]

Figured it out. It didn't automatically download so I had to go to purchases and tell to manually download. Thanks for the help!

Need to sign up to Battlefield Labs.

 

[DeepEnigma]

Bring back tons of physics and destruction.

 

[Luipadre]

Btw there is a 120hz mode on PS5. It says targeting 80, but felt more than that on Pro. There are screen tearing tho

Remake Battlefield 2 (pc era battlefield) or bad company 2, or battlefield 3 and 4(after patches).

Seriously , its not hard, they have history of good games to go back on from before the woke era.

Bf1 was the turning point of shitting going downhill. while not a bad game, they focused on woke stuff and historcial inaccuracies. It started here and it was released in 2016, woke era started 2014. Shit got pushed.
But Bf5 took the cake. They had to push identity politics and intersectional feminism in a war game. Making disabled woman fight in the front line. A woman and her daughter taking over a water plant in ww2 Norway, taking the place of a squadron of men... nothing to see here folks, lol. It was all ridiculous.

They loved that esg money and pushed woke feminism hard. IT didn't turn out for them and rightfully so.
All they needed to do was create a new graphics version of battlefield 1942, or its smaller psn game 1943!

BF 1943 was in fact my favorite in terms of pure fun for multiplayer. It was simple and easy to jump in and out. I loved it.

As for my favorite single player , that would be BF bad company 2.

If they wanted diversity make a new battlefield bad company game, which bf1 and 2 were already diverse.
If they wanted modern war, make it like BF3 and 4, but with better graphics and some new game modes. Why change it to appease era and reddit rejects?


Best bf games: BF 1942, Vietnam, BF2 ,BF3, BAD company 1 & 2, BF4, BF1943.

I have no faith that they learned their lesson or can make a good game anymore. It's sad, with BF tanking and Cod going woke and fort-nity, I don't play online fps anymore at all. BF5 was their last chance, and while they did try to correct ship, the damage was already done.

 

[cash_longfellow]

Can't wait to jump in Sunday! Wish I would have rsvp'd quicker so I could have gotten in today or tomorrow, but it will do.

 

[Black_Stride]

You fuckers better be in here with impressions, assuming your username isnt also your gamertag.
Dont want to get you banned.....but also dont care as long as I get the deets.

For those who have played all the modern BF games, what does it most feel like overall.
Especially for anyone who was in the BF3 Alpha and can remember how much they were planning on putting in that game.

Bro what?

Like what what?

BF1 still has the best atmosphere and hardcore gunplay of all the BF games.
Ill agree things went downhill from there, but thats only BFV and 2042.

BF1 was legit amazing, the DLC was all hard hitting, and after they made it free and all the gamemodes filled up again, it was like heaven.
Dunno waht woke shit you saw in BF1 cuz I cant remember any, beyond BF3/4 its the Battlefield game i put the most hours into, even more the BC2.

Invert vertical is bugged, you have to change mouse and keyboard to invert as well for it to work FYI

[TwinB242]

I haven't played it yet, but based on videos I feel like the game is missing a hook or some features to really give it that wow factor you expect from a new BF game. Revamped Levolution and dynamic weather events could have done that but it seems like that stuff isn't in there.

 

[FUBARx89]

Is double sprinting gone? For all it's faults. I did like that in 2042.
