Battlefield Franchise Megathread V2 - 'The Future of Warfare Is in the Past' Edition - Games

[QUOTE=Lord of Boxes;51200207]Wait do you get the trial even if you get the standard edition?[/QUOTE] Well, you get the trial if you sign up for Origin Access, you don't have to own the game.

I finished all of the sp that I could in the trial, loved the ending to Through Mud and Blood.

It's pretty cool that we get two new factions in the DLCs though. Last time new factions came with DLCs was BC2: Vietnam, I think.

half way through the mud and blood campaign [sp] seeing finch get mowed down was fucking shocking[/sp]

Hearing a orchestral battlefield theme when I started the game up brought a tear to my eye :cry:

Is there still a firing range map? I loved having it in BF4 and spent a lot of time just fiddling around with stuff.

That first section in mud and blood was quite an experience.

[sp]and the right at the end, it has to kick you in the dick. Really love the hammering of "war is hell" and seriousness of the characters/setting.[/sp]

Good god does this game look great though. I'm having no problems running it ultra at 1080p with FXAA medium and HBAO. DX12 actually introduced slight stuttering so I left that off. Also, don't forget to turn off GPU memory restriction as it kinda introduces stuttering as well.

So wait, you're limited at 10 hours of playtime right ? There's no ways around that ? I can't just shell 4$ again and get another 10 hours, right ? Yeah i'm [I]that [/I] hungry.

I absolutely love the games map design, but holy shit, suez is way to small for 64 players.

Manage to get two nice full playthroughs of suez and st quentin Shadowplay recorded them both in 720p FUCK

some people say he's still throwing first aid till this day... [vid]http://techbot.xyz/ShareX/file/2016/10/14/firstaid.webm[/vid] [editline]14th October 2016[/editline] also I don't know if this is common or not, but sometimes vehicles fuck up in a way that the movement are really choppy [vid]http://techbot.xyz/ShareX/file/2016/10/14/weirdturretglitch.webm[/vid]

[QUOTE=codemaster85;51200543]half way through the mud and blood campaign [sp] seeing finch get mowed down was fucking shocking[/sp][/QUOTE] Yeah [sp]I was like, oh he looks like he has a fair bit of potential characterization going on, we'll probably get some quality squad cha- oh, he died. I guess that's what is was like in WWI though, you'd meet someone, get to know them a little, and then a few minutes later they're dead[/sp]

Is the server browser the only functioning way to find games in the trial?

[QUOTE=Zeos;51202422]Is the server browser the only functioning way to find games in the trial?[/QUOTE] For what we know, there will not be an external server browser. everything will be done though the game, with BF4 and H integrated into it as well Battlelog is dead if you're asking about the status of matchmaking though, lol no idea

I'm loving this singleplayer so far, it's actually reminding me so much of the older Medal of Honor's. There's even a track in the game that plays in the main menu + pause menu that reminds me so much of the Arnhem Knights track from Moh Frontline but I can't find it uploaded on Youtube yet. Speaking of Arnhem Knights, Amiens reminds me so much of that mission.

If BF1 does well we need a Medal of Honor reboot

[QUOTE=Raidyr;51202585]If BF1 does well we need a Medal of Honor reboot[/QUOTE] I can't see that happening because for a lot of younger gamers who don't remember the WWII Medal of Honor games, it would have the not so good reputation of the modern reboot from a few years back.

I want, Normandy, I fucking want to replay that in on the Frostbite engine, bullets whizzing past, mortars going off everywhere, it'd look fucking amazing.

[QUOTE=Scratch.;51202436]everything will be done though the game, with BF4 and H integrated into it as well[/QUOTE] Makes me wish BF4 would get a "remaster" with the new engine. The idea of multiple up-to-date Battlefield games spanning multiple wars/eras gets me excited, although it would be a disaster and too expensive to maintain (not to mention there wouldn't probably be enough players).

Pre-loading has started!

[QUOTE=Niklas;51201711]I absolutely love the games map design, but holy shit, suez is way to small for 64 players.[/QUOTE] People were guessing Argonne was going to be operation metro of BF1 but I was surprised when it turned out Suez was a 3 capture point map. At least it's open enough for flanking maneuvers, the couple games I've played on it have had multiple back caps occur.

What are your guys' origin names?
