*** The Official Battlefield 5 thread***

I'm betting reskin as well unfortunately, I didn't like the BF1 setting wished it was WW2, now we're probably getting WW2 I'm wishing it was BFBC2. BF WW2 will just feel like a content drop for BF1, they'll have to make some massive changes to keep it feeling fresh and evolved otherwise I can see it getting boring quick.

bc3 is bf 2020 if this is ww2.

If it is ww2 it will be very like bf1, It will be small tweaks to the frostbyte engine to make incremental improvements to the visuals, sound and performance (probably negatively) and a ww2 setting. Movement and gun play will probably be similar if tweaked. Probably more changes to the game modes and also the monetisation, but basically a reskin/upgrade and ww2 setting.

Likely I'll be out then, I'll try it at a friend's if it's ww2 but can't see me bothering with it.

The only battlefield I didn't play was 2142, no idea if they should so something like that one again

I now understand why the devs were trying to get the EE solved yesterday. After it's triggered, the water drops from the pipes give the morse code for neverbethesame. So the EE hunt was to unlock access to bf2018 info.

Yeah hoping we get BFBC3 first, though sounds doubtful, unless DICE LA and Sweden are working on the same title together.... BFBC3 WW2.

Small possibility is that it is BC3 and it tells the history of BC through multiple eras starting with ww2. But I doubt it.

That's what I've been discussing https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/posts/31801602/

 

[opethdisciple]

I'm excited. I generally don't see the point in preorders but BF is an exception.

 

[V_R]

Oooh, nice. Will give that a go later...

I said that Dak video was clickbait in the other thread.

 

[HazardO]

Daz was right though, we have a teaser now. Whether we should read much into the date for the reveal (the day Hitler announced he was going to take Poland) or the significance of the white horse (The Nazis had a horse breeding program, after the war the horses were "rescued" by the allies as they were worried the Russians might eat them. https://www.express.co.uk/news/history/697218/Mission-rescue-Hitlers-equine-master-race)

Or maybe this:

Is up for debate...

I'm now thinking the painting has got to be of a Lipizzan horse, which were rescued from the spanish riding school in Vienna at the end of ww2.

 

[RSR]

So May 23rd is the date.....

Hmm................... 'never be the same', so not copying COD and doing WW2 but another period.

Here's hoping..

 

[MikeTheNative]

What has COD not done? Boer War?

 

[danoliver1]

Fuzzy wuzzy war.

 

[Gabbatek]

I'll wait for the beta and decide then if i'll buy in.

Just want to make sure incase they pull some cod ****** with jetpacks

White horse pretty much confirms it

 

[TheBrooder]

If it's not WW2, I'll eat me shoe!

 

[Undesirable]

White horse pretty much confirms it

I hope there is cavalry in the new one. It's pretty much all I play in bf1.
