I won't lie that video is a hard watch, it's just some guy ranting about a game he does not like and complaining that people are enjoying it... It was never going to be quite old school battlefield in part due to the people that have recently been employed to try and reboot the series and in part due to gamers wants being very different today. I think the biggest criticism currently for me is the maps, if you compare to old school Battlefield the maps are actually somewhat lacking. Operation firestorm (though I am not such a fan) is much more reminiscent of the series, plenty of infantry combat spaces but a larger map with scope for vehicles to really be utilised. They feel very COD esque generally but I understand why because of the people making the game and trying to lure in new fans. Server browser was taken out during the last game wasn't it? Portal will help to mitigate that I suppose and the complaint around skill based matchmaking, it is there but games are not prioritised on that. Heck if it was I think Macca, Lee and I would have been bumped right up to the best players last night as we finished 1, 2 & 3 almost every match. My only other gripe and I had a play with it last night trying to unlock the spawn beacon but the assault class is kind of pointless and the shotgun is stupidly overpowered but then there are always balancing issues when a game like this is first launched so we will see how it is in a few weeks. I may give the single player a go at some point, I am after a meaty rpg to play at the moment but nothing is really jumping out at me currently.

The game is ok, it's nowhere near peak bf imo and when you get someone to actually list what's missing etc you can kind of see why there's reasonable criticism.

Finally reached level 30 and I still got it😎 May have a look at the campaign tomorrow.

I bought the digital copy because game share effectively halves the price. Not played it yet, but looking forward to getting a regular squad.

I've seen Shipment is already up in Portal lol @Luseth I've only been playing the campaign so far but I'll try multiplayer once I'm done with that.

Ooh I never came across Soccer Rivals, or anyone with an Amstrad tbf, but I'll look this up now 🙂

I am having a lot of fun with this game, it's not quite old Battlefield but it's got some of the good aspects of it. Firestorm is one of my least enjoyed maps purely because of the snipers sitting on the fekkin tower. I think they should increase the bullet drop on sniper's to add some more skill to them and that would probably help resolve my gripes with it. Generally the maps are pretty good, I really like Manhattan with the bridge and generally the gameplay is pretty good, I am finishing in the top 4 or 5 spaces most matches so I haven't lost my edge with the Battlefield games which is always a plus. I have not used tanks as much as I did on the past few games either. I think you can see a lot of COD players on the game, the way they move, the lack of utilising the classes, videos online moaning about mines and such and there is often a lack of thinking about how you play, understanding that taking bases closer to enemy HQ in some game modes pulls enemies towards them allowing your team to recapture bases and such. In addition I have also been playing with map editor, it's a bit fiddly but I am getting used to it and despite it's crudeness in terms of just plonking objects down I had my first map published last night so I can now host it in portal. I have every intention to try and create some smaller COD influenced maps just for FG use and maybe we could get them going on FG Friday's if anyone's interested?

I grabbed this in the end and they made some good changes since the beta. It's been quite an enjoyable weekend with no real server problems or any major complaints. Not sure how much staying power the game will have with this pool of maps but there is just about enough content and stuff to do. The progression and unlock system is a carbon-copy of Call of Duty and the gunplay seems a mix of COD and BF. This is definitely the easiest Battlefield game I have ever played and any experienced FPS player will absolutely shred most of the time. The maps are all decent enough but the bigger ones really shine. The New York ones are decent too and hopefully we'll see naval and more snow ones coming up. Operation Firestorm feels off though and a bit unbalanced which is a shame though. Game runs pretty well which is a bonus too!

I saw when he made it initially in beta for free to download but I was worried it would take the shine off the golden old days! Let us know how you get on Philly 😎 Soccer Rivals was the one me and @Findmartin played to death on my Amstrad CPC 464. A board game styled management game, loved every minute of it!

I did pick this up, but I'm trying to finish Ghost of Yotei first. I'm actually shocked the file size wasn't as big as I thought. Now, I will read the rest of this thread. Lol. Sorry, I've been MIA like a mudda fugga. 🤪

🤣 It's not that old. 10 years according to Wikipedia. And I say that because Teamspeak is running a campaign on Twitter and often heavily trolls Discord

Some more. What they done with GoldenEye on the 30th anniversary is criminal. Even I could do a better job than what they did with Pierce's hand🤣
