*** The Official Battlefield 5 thread***

Is this worth getting?
I don't normally play FPS and not done so online for at least 15yrs as its always been very toxic but I fancy something different.

It's the same as SWBF2 in that id say its worth it in a sale, £15 would be a fair price for the game in its current state.

Its better than bf1 by a long way but not perfect and not as good as bf4 backwards, much better than pubg though lol I HATE battle royal games, insurgency is much better than bf5 though as is squad and rising storm Vietnam
 
It's a frustrating game to play at the minute due to bombers raping the maps. Hopefully the patch on Tuesday sorts things out
 
So I downloaded the 10 hour trial and have to say I cant tell the difference between this and COD, can someone explain it to me please?
People just seems to be running around aimlessly looking for kills, or have their sights constantly trained on a checkpoint without actually going near it to claim it.

Its a decent run around for sure, the graphics and sound are great but getting bombed from above gets pretty old fast as does getting spawn killed when you spawn on a squad member. There is very little content and I feel like I've covered everything in 10 hours other than the pointless "progression" systems that these games now employ where by you are made to feel like you have done something good when they unlock and give something you should have had in the 1st place.

My K:D ratio is around 1:1 so I'm certainly not the best player but it seems no one is interested in reviving anyone so whats the point in that mechanic and it also feels rushed, like they pushed out an incomplete game to the public with the promise of free DLC when actually there is less content than prior releases and the free DLC is simply making it up to a full release. Perhaps I'm wrong on this.
 
It pays to have a proper squad. That's when the real fun unlocks. Everyone working as a tight unit helping each other. It sometimes happens on randoms too but not so often.
 
I caved and got it.
Played about 5 hours last night and ended up in a great squad with a medic who followed us around.
Had a lot of fun playing as assault, really helped our sniper rack up the kills...
 
Guys, I can't work out to how get into a game of 'Airborne'

Achievement says 'play 6 rounds of Airborne', where the heck do I find this? it just doesn't show in the Advanced Search for Multiplayer games.. :/
 
Liking this game still but haven't really found a gun under support ive liked (my fave class) until now, tried the lewis gun and actually love it, I dismissed it without trying as it was poop in bf1 but its great in this.

Now just need to unlock specializations and get it even better

Use the M30 drilling, it's so much fun to use.

The KE7 is arguably overpowered and getting a nerf so probably best to avoid it right now.
 
I love how i get constantly kicked from squads because i'm using a vehicle....

The Bren is my favourite for support.
 
Had a very weird mixture of games this evening. First game I was sniping but aggressive and hit pretty much every shot going, mostly headshots so felt great, yet then I got a weird visual bug where when I scope, the area you can actually see was raised high into the air so I was blind. Changing weapon didn't solve it either, really weird! Second and third games were a complete waste of time. There was a guy in a bomber just completely cheesing the game. Its nearly impossible to kill a bomber, especially with a tale gunner as they hit so damn hard. Due to that, the guy had 120-3 KD....

Balancing patch is massively needed for this. If they nerfed bombers health and then gave a nice buff to the medic weapons or allowed the carbines like in other BF titles, this would actually be a rather good game. Time will tell!

Bombers are a massive pita currently, they literally seek out AA firing at them and carpet bomb them seeing as you rarely can do enough damage to them as they approach to take them out. Doesn't matter if you hit every shot you fire, if they're at full health when you start hitting them then you're as good as dead.

A decent pilot can take one out but more often than not the planes on your team are also bombers farming kills and they don't really go for each other.

Medics are getting changed in the tuesday patch, smg's getting an upgrade and the revive mechanic has been changed so its slightly faster. Not sure about planes though the full patch notes haven't been released yet.
