![]() ![]() It’s probably going to have nothing on other co-op shooters like Left 4 Dead but hey, I’m always keen for more co-op gameplay. No lootboxesEA/DICE have apparently backed down with respect to lootboxes and will adopt a premium in-game currency which can be used for unlocking cosmetics (which can also be unlocked using a “grind currency”) so a bit similar to R6 Siege where you have R6 Credits (purchased with real money) and Renown (the “grind currency” of Siege).Ĥ Player Co-op ModeI didn’t get to experience this during the open beta but news of a 4-player co-op mode is pretty exciting. ![]() There will also be unique events where you can unlock certain cosmetic items. This means the community will no longer be segregated by those that have certain DLC and those that do not. Tides of War replaces Premium Pass Battlefield V seems to have taken an approach similar to Rainbow Six Siege where once you’ve purchased the game, you’ll have access to all maps that will be released and they’ll be introduced over seasons. Overall, I think this is a good compromise as it seems like essential transportation vehicles will be available more frequently (at least that’s my hope). you select a vehicle and immediately spawn into it, if one is available) – however, it seems Battlefield V takes a mixed approach for vehicle spawns now as basic transport (like bikes and flak tracks) are left idle at the spawn. ![]() Vehicles on-demandYou can still grab vehicles on-demand like in Battlefield 1 (i.e. This is because in Battlefield V both medics and squadmates can revive you although it’s still better if a medic does it as they perform revives quicker and are able to give more health. Medic requestsJust like in Battlefield 1, you can choose to either call for a medic or skip ahead to the spawn screen the bottom right corner will indicate how many metres away the nearest medic is but now it will also tell you how far away your nearest squadmate is as well. ![]() Orchestral score Battlefield 1 composers Johan Söderqvist and Patrik Andrén return to deliver an orchestral score for Battlefield V and from what I’ve heard so far, it’s going to be just as good. I didn’t encounter any serious graphical glitches (besides the occasional corpse pirouetting on its head) and everything seemed to run smoothly with no noticeable drops in framerate.ĪudioAnother area where the Battlefield games tend to shine is in the audio department: Battlefield V manages to authentically capture some quite chilling sounds, such as the Jericho Trumpet sirens wailing as a Stuka performs a dive-bombing run, or a V-1 rocket’s engine just before it hits its target. Smooth and appealing graphicsThe Battlefield games always tend to be pretty ones and Battlefield V is turning out to be no exception. a single player campaign featuring multiple mini-campaigns with different characters) will be making a return, which I think is a good thing as I quite enjoyed their inclusion in Battlefield 1. War Stories are backWhile I didn’t get to experience this during the open beta (since it focused solely on multiplayer), it has been reported that War Stories (i.e. Amongst the infantry weapons you’ll get access to Kar98s, Bren Guns and Stg 44s. Unlike Battlefield 1, it seems that vehicles and aircraft available to each faction are ones that were actually used by them such as Churchill tanks and Spitfire fighters for the British, and Tiger tanks and Stuka bombers for the Germans. WWII Era Weapons and Vehicles Battlefield V will launch with only two factions: Britain and Germany, but more will be added later on. So, after playing the open beta for over 4 hours, is Battlefield V any good? Is it worth keeping an eye on? Battlefield V is set during World War II so now the series has come full circle considering the first Battlefield game, released back in 2002, was Battlefield 1942. Rainbow Six: Siege is still my multiplayer FPS of choice and while Battlefield 1 wasn’t too bad, I didn’t feel it was good as previous Battlefield games in terms of the direction they were going with the gameplay – I did think it was a good idea for DICE to break the cycle though and visit WWI instead of developing another modern warfare FPS. Unlike the Battlefield 1 beta which only featured a single map (Sinai Desert) this beta featured two: Rotterdam and Narvik. I tried the Battlefield V Open Beta several days ago and not only tried my hand at the classic Conquest mode but also the new Grand Operations mode. Battlefield maps always tend to look pretty ![]()
