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

Wait a second, is early enlister getting a day early release? I thought it was the 18th.

[QUOTE=Megadave;51215488]Wait a second, is early enlister getting a day early release? I thought it was the 18th.[/QUOTE] If you VPN to Australia you can get it right now

[QUOTE=Scratch.;51215441]If memes weren't banned, I'd place an image of our own beloved harold celebrating. God it's been so long since a good campaign from the battlefield. I haven't even seen anything beyond the trailer, and now I'm excited, because I just didn't want to be let down again[/QUOTE] If the campaign is as good as mud and blood, its going to be a solid one.

For those who still have the trial they've added hardcore mode and fog of war mode in the custom tab now but it just says "coming soon". Will probably be unlocked for launch but get hype! [t]http://i.imgur.com/MU4pavj.jpg[/t]

[QUOTE=Jelman;51215558]If you VPN to Australia you can get it right now[/QUOTE] [img]http://i.imgur.com/oKU7nXW.png[/img] I must be doing something wrong then cause Origin isn't having any of it Hold on, Switzerland? This VPN is cheating me Even after getting a proper one it still didn't work. Guess I just gotta wait like everyone. 8½ more hours

Hoo boy. Had a few rounds there but not sure what to think just yet. Some things are baffling to me. Main points of confusion after my first few rounds: Why can't I quit after a match? What's with the hold space to spawn crap? Why are people on horses bullet resistant? How does melee work? Why do I keep spawning in direct danger?

Just pre-ordered BF1 Early Enlisters deluxe before pre-order bonus ends in the US. Cant wait to play it tomorrow. one question: How much does BF premium cost?

And now I got it to work. Seems the origin webhelper does something where it stores your location for a bit longer than you'd want

[editline]17th October 2016[/editline] $50 USD[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Joshii;51211953]I had no idea about this but apparently there is meant to be custom made game modes by DICE that will be rolled out over time that will have some sort of gimmick attached to them. There's one that journalists and I assume that Youtubers as well then got to play called "Fog of War" which removed HUD elements and made it pistol + melee only.

Wait, I can unlock it now

Gotta wait 14 hours :disgust:

Gonna be pre-ordering it later today when I get out of class. Too excited. Add me on PS4 if any of you guys need a squad mate.

[QUOTE=Novangel;51215329]GMG has it for $37[/QUOTE] I see it for $46? Unless you meant to mark it Euros. edit: nevermind, scrolled up.

[QUOTE=Masamune;51216118]I see it for $46? Unless you meant to mark it Euros.[/QUOTE] check it's replies

I'm trying my hardest to time my trial ending with the game launching so I don't have to suffer waiting lmao. Still have another 7~ hours left until the full games released but 6~ hours left on my trial.

I'm a fucking idiot who's never used a VPN in his life, can someone give me a lowdown on what to use and how to use it?

So does Battlefield 1 have a hardcore mode? And is it not shit?

[QUOTE=Laferio;51215337]So I haven't been able to find some decent information. How does soldier customization work, can you customize appearance at all? If so, how indepth is it?[/QUOTE] There's no customization. This is the danger of just assuming something will happen in the game because a 'dataminer' found a few named face textures.

I'm just hoping they fixed the clientside weather problem.

Id be willing to bet a whole $1 US dollar USD that there will be snow maps in the Russian Xpac

Anyone have any idea as to what [B] time[/B] the early access is supposed to start on the 18th?

[QUOTE=Shenesis;51216551]Does BF1 have a snow map? I've looked at the previous pictures and the game looks beautiful. A snow map on this engine would probably look absolutely stunning[/QUOTE] It looks like one of the singleplayer missions takes place in the alps, but its a plane mission.

((Or right now))

[QUOTE=Zeos;51216746]((Or right now))[/QUOTE] No VPN, shit sux.

[QUOTE=mastermaul;51216888]No VPN, shit sux.[/QUOTE] You either use a free VPN and a client to use it, or buy one and the client that comes with it. I personally use [url]http://vpnsecure.me/[/url] cause they have a "2 day trial" plan. Simply make an account and pay $2, then DL the client and fire up a VPN in new Zealand

Aren't free VPNs really sketch and shitty? If I were entering payment info I might as well just buy EA access and play the trial since we're almost 10 hours from launch anyways.

Otherwise they're not so much sketchy as they are overloaded
