I ventured back into Battlefront 2 as well with its recent popularity and game is really a good game and still simply gorgeous
 
The destruction we´ve seen so far still doesn`t even seem to be on par with BC2.
While the canned "square wall crumbles without really leaving debris" destruction is back (we had that in 2010....) I´ve yet to see buildings being completely leveled to the ground.

Can someone confirm?
"Levolution" was NOT in full effect here. At least not yet. You got some destruction but I feel we will see that later on as time goes on.

Yeh half the animations weren't there, there was glitches as well where you could see through walls when zoomed in, and it would reappear when zoomed back out

It was a server stress test, not gameplay one, and the game play was basically there in this state
 
Plenty of destruction here. You're not going to get full building collapses on urban levels but it looks like if someone is sniping from a window you can blow their cover with an rpg.

 
The explosion effects look nice in this and it's crazy how much that one effect seems to add to the realism. Why have no other games nailed this effect down? Is it a case of being GPU intensive?
 
New test on friday, no invite sadly :(

They changed the soldier look.

Damn, that lighting is so much better. Also better framing. Great job by the people involved.

I loved BF2042, running Rush with some of my best friends for months. Great times. I hope the new Battlefield moves towards the greatness of BF4 and Battlefront 2. BFV was terrible imo.

Hype! Got myself a new PC for gaming and creative work. Been enjoying Nightreign, looking forward to Arc Raiders and Battlefield 6 will be icing on the cake!

it does, its definiately more like BF3-4
 
Considering the gigantic flop it was you'd think using 2042 as an example would be the last think people would do and whatever lessons DICE learned from that game would be about what not to do, but here we are.

only thing 2042 has done i want in the next, is portal, but with waaay more options
 
I'm really interested to know how it runs in it's current state on PC. I'm wondering whether I'll need to upgrade from a 3080, still plenty of time to figure this out though I guess.

Amazing friend! That sounds incredibly optimised for an alpha, hopefully it stays the same for the final launch.

Yo this looks so good.

Why does EA hate me now.
I was in the BF3Aa and true Alpha and Beta.
I supported BF4 like a champ.
Did BF1 eand was constantly making clips for them.
Wasnt as keen on BFV but still run the game till I went back to BF1
Really wasnt feeling 2042


Not a single invite!!!!!

You loved 2042 but thought BFV was terrible?



P.S Yes....Make Rush Great Again.
BC memories obviously but BF3 and 4 rush was so so good.
Yes even on lobsided maps

I'm on a 2070S 16g and 3700x, also runs well for me. You can easily cap 60fps with scaling/settings and the game still looks decent, even with all the shyte they put over the screen in these playtests.

My friends got me into the game after it released and got heavily patched/optimized. I had a really great time with BF2042 and I was as surprised as you are. Rush maps and class synergy is great in this game. Feels very arcadey, but still, Battlefield.

People don't rly play that though. Very barren on PC. You need a good playerbase, frontend and backend systems that are streamlined for something like this. I prefer them to use their resources for a better base MP game tbh.

Because it was left to rot unfortunately, datamining has found horse and gas grenades, so in my mind potentially bf1 maps and weapons etc for new portal.......

I don't disagree with you tho

Okay.
And why was BFV terrible?
What was your opinion of 1?

BFV shooting mechanics and scale felt off. I love corridor elements, shooting, Rush modes. I rarely play conquest and I see the vehicles as a fun extra. I love using recon to flank objectives and surprise enemies with my squad.

BFV shooting and visibility of enemies felt off. Map design felt more open and convoluted, houses and walls and lots of fields, I just didn't click with any of it. The Amsterdam map felt most ok to me, was it Amsterdam?

I really enjoyed BF1, even if tanks ruined some rush maps.

Rush on operation Metro, Paracel Storm, that Prison map of BF4, those are my jams.

I see you are a mostly Rush player....kinda makes sense now.
Terrible might have been a hyperbole though no?

Portal needs to be a fucking default in all BF titles moving forward, such a great concept.

I love BFV, one of my favorite BF titles, but with BF series, everyone has their favorite, some like 2042, BFV, BF1, BF3, BF4, BFBC2 etc

I see it like Final Fantasy or even Assassins Creed, some times 1 of those entries moves someone more then the next and imho, there is no right or wrong regarding that.

The fact that it is even debated imho means they did a great job at making a different time period or setting or type of war if they managed to gather fans for life of that exact title or something.

Thats a really good way of putting it.
If everyone has a favorite for different reasons it means none were completely dogshit as every one had something going for it.

For me the holy grail has always been to try getting BF3/4 with BF1s atmosphere with BFV movement.
As for the "gimmick" I want them all, some maps have levelution, some maps have behemoths, squad leaders have reinforcements(those rockets), some objectives have "superweapons" like artillery(i guess in a modern setting it would be a bombing run or something)).
Its asking alot but otherwise the way this battlefield is going im very much looking forward to it.

Agreed, BFV probably had my favorite gunplay and movement of the whole series , but do enjoy the modern setting of BF3 and BF4.

From what I've seen of people playing in the alpha, it looks amazing!
