Welcome Josh, I heard you helped a few folk with their aiming in BF6 😁

Actually not new here but I’ve never really introduced myself, my names Josh nice to meet you all! i play mainly with the lads on FC on a Monday night 😁

Yes, I bought the version with the next 4 DLC, so I'm not worried. @RenFengge and I have played about 3 hours and so far it's been great. Have not even done the first quest yet.

the Deep Desert is getting overhauled tomorrow for the griefing and expanding the PVE zone there and materials, no griefing on our server since we own it and there is no one else :). The griefing is cut down to a min and most are spending 350 hours before they even get to those parts!

I have no words I thought this was an AI fake picture but apparently it is 100% real.

Yep, after all, it's carefully constructed and valid criticism from the Battlefield community which is why this game even exists. Had the community not salvaged 2042 for 3 years straight, the entire Battlefield brand would be dead by now. Let's also not forget back in 2014 when the community saved Battlefield 4 after at the time, the worst launch in videogame history bar none, so criticism is absolutely critical going forward. Whilst not much can be done at this stage in regards to some of the design choices as the maps are already finished, it is good to get on paper what people may want to see in the future. For instance, it doesn't look like we're getting a water map which is almost criminal🤣 If we end up doing what Treyarch did to COD, every map will start shrinking and they'll make decisions based on data and not logic. Gotta keep everyone happy and not just the COD incomers who are already demanding battle passes and e-sports!

Oh, very cool, might grab it then.

On Witch Queen - Agreed, totally top tier content. In the old style campaigns it was always Forsaken that was the one that rivalled this but Witch Queen brought so many things to the game and compelling long campaign missions that you felt rewarded when completing it. Lightfall - Glad you got it done @J4MES OX4D. Maybe I should attempt to go back to it, but I knew it felt off from the start. Final Shape - I can maybe see why you found some things frustrating. Some hard moments as a group on the campaign near the latter missions. The end part is quite challenging on Legendary. I enjoyed the final heroic battle with everyone. It was a bit gimmicky, sure. But if you have been with Destiny for 10 years, it was great to finally see your guardian fight way more alongside your NPC allies. Never thought of the Zavala bit in detail until now. Maybe it was put in there to disguise where the story was headed. Some really key things happened in the storyline though if you follow the backstory of everything. Zavala was set up just before Final Shape to start becoming a little more angry and less controlled. Edge of Fate - I've started it. Not done enough yet to warrant me seeing if its any good or not. I miss the enjoyment of running in a crew through the storyline so maybe that is impacting and skewing my feelings.

Is there a roadmap of what they are introducing over time into the game at all?

Quite a well rounded review imo

I'm in the same boat mate. Feels like it has momentum, but we have to see what happens. I even saw some older FGers on it from around the world too, so its clearly peaked some interest out there.

If enough ppl buy the game, I'll probably pick it up too, and on console as my PC can't really handle it. Would be a fun FG team play game if we have enough interest.

Totally agree on that ❤️ I think I just found it more odd catching up as everyone who played online over the weekend were really happy that the game seemed in a decent spot. Maybe its because I didn't hear that online and then read something different here. We'll see what the next weekend will bring. Macca mentioned they are working on TTK which is a good sign its already been acknowledged. I think this is totally down to the younger gen Cod players giving this Beta a go and not really understanding what team mechanics are about 😅 Matt told me on the Conquest games to tag a flag being squad leader and that got us extra points. I think not many people play the FG way online 🤣 - which is why I'll be serious disappointed if they don't make it really easy to get more friends in the same game.

When you're forking out 70 quid plus for a video game I think you're allowed to have opinions on it, be they positive or negative. That's what a forum is for. Those with criticism have made it quite clear in their posts what they're unhappy with, so i'm not sure what there is to understand. No-one needs to take it as a personal insult that others aren't necessarily happy with something they themselves are happy with. Everyone's opinions on the game are equally valid, please reflect on that 😘

Given how much some of us played DayZ on PC, I think its a very good chance to give it a go on console...although I expect it will be a few versions behind PC and way harsher than we've previously played it! Lets hope the controller button layout works well.

I don't go into any FIFA related game expecting anything now, so whatever we get extra is a bonus. Its not new content, even if they badge as it is, but having live tournaments (old cups) is a welcome addition back into the game. They need more variety added to Pro Clubs mode as its fast becoming hugely popular in this era. Not sure, normally when everyone agrees. Over the past 2-3 years its been getting closer and closer to launch date because everyone becomes tired of the previous game (mainly as the thoughts are EA have stopped fixing the older game!). I don't like paying full price for FIFA, just doesn't feel right unless they added far more items. If we can make it last to the first sale that will save everyone at least £20-£30, but don't be surprised if its sooner.

I watched a video last night from XclusiveAce and he said that it seems like there's some server de-sync. So it feels like you die with one bullet but the enemy actually hit you with 5 bullets. This is one feature I wish they hadn't copied from COD 🤣 Hopefully they'll get it sorted the full game. Personally I really enjoyed the beta. Movement is great and didn't feel sluggish. I didn't like that mountain map with the rock in the middle that has 20 snipers on it every game 😡 I just hope all of the COD players that don't wait for revives just fuck off back to COD when BO7 comes out.

Coming from a player that's never really enjoyed Battlefield over the years, I must say its probably been one of the best beta offerings I've played that I can remember. You may probably say that proves the point that BF lovers aren't overly enthused about the game, but I am struggling to see why there is so much disappoint in this thread so far. I must have played with c.8 FGers on it over the weekend and everyone was really enjoying it. The hours on it alone you could see that. One criticism I would agree with? TTK. It felt too quick almost immediately and its one thing I think I can see why on a Beta they go quicker so they know they can dial it back on launch or next beta weekend. Breakthrough and Conquest felt very strong as game modes. Most maps felt like they had moments for attack and defence, which is a good thing overall. Domination not so much, as i felt that was introduced purely for the CoD players giving it a go. It looked extremely polished.I enjoyed the UI. The Medic being able to resupply health and ammo is a great shout and I found in the 3-5 hours I played it, I can see why in Battlefield you really do need to work together in your squads to try and win the match. That will switch alot of CoD players off eventually leaving BF6 in a reasonably good state. The only one thing you all know I want in this game to see it as a true success is if they fix it so more than 3 of your friends can play in the same match. Its impacted pretty much most BF games in the past and probably why CoD has still survived. They've got to get this right on launch. N.B. I didn't play it on original settings. @igotmollywhopped Josh helped update my settings before I played and I can only assume those changes helped me have a really enjoyable time on it - but equally I can't say how different it is to the default settings.

Yes but you've completely missed the point of everything said. Spawning on a flag you've captured when the next flag is just 30 seconds away in BF6 is a world of difference than what we've seen previous whereby you don't need to apply any forwarding tactical strategy or squad teamwork whatsoever. The squad system has been completely obliterated since 2042 and the developers still don't understand the core design philosophy that made it so pivotal in the likes of 2, 3, 4, 1 and V. There's no consequence to squad wipes or any territorial focuses when the maps are this compact. Conquest on Cairo and Iberia is practically domination as it is, and breakthrough is an unbalanced shambles. Spawn beacons are pointless now because unless you play them as a tac-insert for yourself, you literally just save yourself 15 seconds and create self-inflicted chokepoint that the opposition can sit on. These in old Battlefield games were critical to maintain a territorial push in a safe haven when spawning with the squad was risky. Now they are nothing more than a Call of Duty tactical insertion. This is why small linear shoebox maps don't work well. Metro and Locker do because they were meticulously designed but here they've just created a layout and prioritised destruction.

When will the MNF transfer take place? Normally around Christmas isn’t it?

You do realise spawning on any flag that your team has captured has happened on at least the last 2 or 3 battlefields before this bro.

Yeah bro, i was having a little trouble at start, was still having fun but was getting blasted left right and centre but loved the chaos, it's warfare, it's not meant to be chill 🤣 I then got my settings, reduced the zoom sensitivity etc, put on performance mode and it felt like a new game, it really doesn't feel like a beta, even tom was saying he took everything back he said about not buying it, it's a solid step in the right direction for battlefield and just glad that I can play a game which isn't gonna be filled with skins from movies, meta people who have meta loadouts, slide cancelling, few tweaks obviously need fixing but yeah for me! Superb!

I'll look for it in a sale, there seems to be a lot of folk who love the game up until the later part of it, where the griefers seem to be running riot, there's a lot of salty Steam reviews 🤪

People don't seem to bother with issuing orders now and I don't see the point either. You could literally free for all from any flag and it wouldn't make a difference whereas in the older BF games, you relied on working as a squad, pushing the flag the squad leader assigned, using beacons and also ensuring you don't get wiped because the set-back consequences were dire. Here if you get wiped, you choose any flag you want and then go left, right centre and chances are you'll be contesting a flag with others regardless in less than a minute. I don't even need to pull the map up mid-game anymore because all I have to do is focus on the flag icon that appears on the interface and that tells me all I need to know along with all the other x-rayed UI features. Just feels soulless and cheap this way.

Yeah @Macca89 I actually set it up before playing with controller suggestions from some streamers. Bad move 🤪 Went back to default and it was much, much better and I enjoyed it a lot more : ) I'd like to see the bigger maps in the next demo.
