I like the slower methodical nature of PUBG so this may be a great battle royale option for me. I'm not a huge fan of Apex. Tanks worry me.

Looks good but far too late to the party.

Heh, I went to check BFV on metacritic and it doesn't seem too bad when looking at critic reviews.
But the user reviews are really bad and people are complaining about women in the game?!? Is that the only complaint?

It's on sale now on PSN so I might check it out.

Normally I don't comment on leaks for a number of reasons but breaking that habit today. Whatever has leaked has leaked, there's no stopping that, but I just want to clarify one thing.

Leaks of early versions and information are just that, early. When you read or watch something there's a risk that some of the things that you will see will be different when things release. Just wanted to flag that some information may change over time.

Another day, another BR game..

The vehicle battle looks very cool but it's a couple months too late..

I don't think I'll buy Battlefield V, but the vehicles and holding a pistol when downed looks cool. Apex Predators I think has wiped out most of the Battle Royal Field.

Looks pretty cool. I didn't bother with PubG, so this definitely couod satiate my need for a more ""grounded" Battle royale game

Will they ever change this on these battle royale games???

Honestly after Apex Legends I could really care less

It would take a hell of a lot for me to play a different BR after how good Apex is and this looks pretty bland in comparison

Looks good to me so far. About what I expected, doubt it'll be a huge thing. But it should definitely hold an active player base.

They should have done more to make it standout, and integrated more Battlefield concepts into the formula. A BR game combined with Conquest would be interesting.

It's curious, I remember when the mode was announced they said that it would be only squads, and then in this leaked video they mentions duos and solo.

Should have delayed BF5 till this was ready or delayed this until BF6.

I can't see this taking off now.

The emphasis on vehicles seems cool. The inventory management system looks like it could be a nightmare to use, though.

Just think how awesome this mode should have been at launch but instead we got a single player campaign that no one asked for. With Apex Legends thriving This mode is already DOA. Every decision surrounding BFV has been a train wreck, which is a shame because it's actually a pretty dam good game

so ready for the battle royale boom to be over

There was room in the market because Fortnite and PUBG have frankly garbage shooting mechanics. Apex beat BFV to the punch on fixing that. BO4 put its hat in the ring with a pretty solid offering, but with a big price tag and within the CoD-style mechanics.

I don't know what BF can offer to make it a compelling experience against Apex or CoD.

I guess if anything they can put their experience into the next BF game that has Battle Royale but they should really just do their own thing.

It looks okay, might be a nice change of pace.

This looks like the blandest thing possible. Just like the main game. DICE really needs to take their time with the next game and surprise people

Hopefully.
My biggest problem with apex is the squads. I suck so I don't want to ruin other peoples game. But I can't really practice without ruining the others game either.
I hope they make a solo mode there too but considering the different abilities of the legends and such I doubt it.

I'm interested in how the tanks fit into the game, but the lack of class benefits in the game is disappointing.

If they released this two months ago it would have probably been a hit. Now that Apex is out it looks outdated. It's a shame.

Eh the "looks bland" and "ww2 is boring" comments are off the mark imo, actually looks pretty fun with plenty of elements that other BRs lack.
Not really. Blackout and PUBG have vehicles, Apex has supply drops, and Fortnite has the ability to make cover. The only differences this has ate the setting and the firestorm destroying buildings as it closes in
What does this even mean? If bfv is bland so is all battlefields. Do you want them to add magic and stuff?
Bad Company 2 was anything but bland

it doesnt look THAT bad. But with Apex, PUBG, Fortnite, and Blackout already being a thing, why should I play Firestorm over those?
Strange question...because someone prefers Battlefield's, more specifically, Battlefield V's gunplay? I don't really have any interest in the others you listed but Battlefield is by far my favorite shooter series when it comes to shooting and vehicle warfare.

Jackfrags had a video about some of the datamined stuff and I believe there was reference to vehicles requiring fuel. So I am hoping attack vehicles won't be super common.

Firestorm looks to be closer to PUBG than those two. There is something satisfying about nailing a Kar98 shot from 1000 meters away that you can't get in CoD or Apex. PUBG was the only place for that, but now Firestorm seems to offer that as well.

Dunno why theres the hate here, I think this could be decently successful. It won't touch Fortnite or Apex (due to them being free to play standalones) but it will be competetive with Blackout.

To me, what I saw was a slower, more deliberate BR game like PUBG.


But without the jank.

So sign me up

Well, shield shit is cancer of the Battle Royale, for me. At least make that suffering more acceptable on FireStorm.

That's all I need.

I'd probably rank them as Apex > Fortnite > Bla

I don't think it's hate, just lack of excitement. There wasnt anything that would pull you off of your current BR of choice (except maybe PUBG or Minecraft) because it's not free and there's nothing extremely distinguishing about it

And it's pretty late to the party

Looks a bit simple but it should have been included at launch. It will fizzle if it's not free at this point
