Battlefield V (2018)

World War 3 looks really excellent and people who have had hands on with it have been singing it's praises so I am cautiously optimistic.

It is a shame that BF is an EA franchise but they have to change their ways or disappear.

They are quite simply not a consumer friendly company.

 

Gunplay in all the videos still looks stale. Pew pew laserbeams, hold mouse1.

 

I couldn't find any info about this, if you have Origin Access Premier, will you get access to the full game at launch or just for the early access trial?

Then i can safe my money and cancel the pre-order.

 

Full game and you get to play it early.

 

Thanks for the reply!

TL;DR = we done ****** up



Guess there was one guy at EA/DICE with a neuron left, the original release window between new COD and RDR2 was mental, especially considering all the controversy. Though I doubt that if the game is an unfinished, half-assed state, that another month will make much of a difference.

 

Let alone that launch date between the two other games, they wouldn't even have all the gamemodes at launch available... which to me is pretty lame anyway, as in, another unfinished game released, and final beta phase being the first 3 months of gamers getting raped by OP weapons / vehicles

 

It was pretty obviously it needed some more time from what I've played, what they have is pretty polished but some of the newer mechanics needed polish badly.

also not launching in between other big games will no doubt help.

 

Wonder if we will get more content at launch now,

I know the battle royale was after launch but there was going to be no co op and vehicle customization at launch which seemed a bit crap

 

When can you pre-load the open beta? I pre-ordered a while ago now.

 

Now. Preload started yesterday. Open beta play already has started today for those that pre-ordered.

 

How big is the download and what are the dates for the beta?

 

With the rate things have been going, probably like a terabyte

 

12.44gb it is saying for me. Downloading now. Hyped.

 

But of course the beta too is tied to premier/pre-order... another 2 days before the plebs can play it.

 

You need latest nvidia drivers it seems too. Interesting.

 

Because of the iG warning? I still remember that one back in the day with BF4 when I simply didn't upgrade my drivers for quite some time.

 

My performance is uttersh1t lol. What is at fault mostly? Gpu or the rest of my system? Perhaps instead of new games and memberships I should invest in a new rig...

 

Just out of curiosity... are you running DX12 by chance?

 

Hell no both bf1 and bfv perform more fluidly with Dx11 api..
