****Official Battlefield 5 Thread****

Battlefield 5 is currently penciled in to release towards the end of 2016 but we are already starting to hear some details about the game. For example, it turns out that the upcoming title will bring the series back to its military roots, taking a step away from Battlefield Hardline’s approach, which features cops VS robbers.

Speaking at the UBS Global Technology Conference this week, EA CFO, Blake Jorgensen, said that Battlefield 5 is shaping up to be a “fun, new Battlefield”, we will also see a “return to a Battlefield, military style game; more to come on that”.

Battlefield Hardline will come out at the beginning of next year, EA has previously stated that Battlefield 5 has been pushed back until holiday 2016 in order to give players more time to play Visceral Game’s upcoming take on the series as well as the recently fixed Battlefield 4, which had a very troubled launch last year.

Dont know about you but after BF4, there is no chance I'm buying this!!

Completely regret buying BF4. I did get some fun out of it before allt he DLC hit.

I'm with you on that one. I uninstalled it and been back into BF3 for a while now. Best thing to do in this situation is wait for AMD to release new GPUs and grab one dead cheap or on a giveaway!

I'll definitely get it. I turned up late to the bf4 party.

Hopefully they've learnt their lesson from bf4 release.

Isn't it being made by a new company this time?

Is that really a risk you want to take?

I dont think BF3 Premium was that bad TBH. Still enjoying it now but my choice of maps leave a lot to he desired.

I think that will make the final decision if people here play it.

Before I joined the OCUK platoon I'd only ever played solo. It's a damn sight more fun playing with the group. So if they don't buy it I doubt I will.

After the last one, it'll pay to wait for the pawns to get it first!

Will buy it. Anybody saying they regret BF4 but has sank more than 50 hours into it is talking rubbish.

Not really!! I played it as I wanted to like it, enjoy it and make it work but you can't polish a turd and that's all they've tried to do! I sank 250 hours into it as I enjoyed playing it in the clan but it never got any better and drove me to the edge of hatred for the game and DICE!

 

[snips86x]

You certainly didn't give up polishing, spending 9 days doing something your not keen on or hate as you put it, would you pick potatoes for 10 days?

How can you like BF3 but not play 4, it's BF 3.5 anyway.

As above, trying to make the effort! I will also add that the game was new and I purchased it in November. Not to mention I was signed off sick for the whole of December and had to do something. Dont think I played it again after that.

There is no way BF4 is at the same standard as #3, 3 is far better to play and it works.

Please avoid digression, dont want to request a mod to delete posts. Keep on topic please!

Pffft, Stats are over rated.

Beta graphics look worse than BFBC2
Hackers seen in Beta, PB fails

Rubber band/lag/tradekill
AA is OP against attack heli
Attack heli is OP against AA
Premium is too expensive/not worth it
Squad play not encouraged
Autoknife is OP
Counterknife is OP
Maps are unbalanced
Magnum is more accurate at 200m than <insert wookie stick here>
etc etc etc..

Sounds like run of the mill EA
