BATTLEFIELD 1

Yeah well...sad day. BF4 is officially dead to me too.

The Section 8 server is shutting down. Too expensive. $200 a month.

Probably DL BF1 again and be an absolutely insane person. Alternative tactics ftw. Going back to running over infy with my plane.

play squad instead

The premium pass is on sale on Origin until June 20 for $40. Is that a good price or does it go for cheaper elsewhere?

It probably won't go any cheaper so if you were really hell bent on getting it then pull the trigger. I honestly haven't played much of the recent DLC because the main maps are pretty good and the DLC servers are always dead. The setup for it is really stupid as almost all the DLC servers only run the new maps. It gets old real fast and the fragmented parts of the game seem to ruin it.

Server, or Servers?
No single server, be it BF4, BF3, BFBC2, or even BF1 through EA costs $200 a month. Maybe 2 game servers and a massive teamspeak or ventrillo server for that price, but NOT one single server.

A 64 player BF4 server with higher priority located in USA is only $85/month through NFO.
 
No. It was the combo of both servers. Bf1 and 4. They dropped 4 BC of cost.

I tried squad a bit when it was beta. Need to try again. Not a very responsive game though.

there was a big update to squad shortly before I picked the game up in Jan. theres been 2 big updates since then.
 
Yes & the structured SP was great, but too damn short.
Same with BF Hardline - great SP, but too damn short.

For MP FPS, I typically play CS:GO or pubG
 
I played through the SP on someone else's account...it really didn't seem like anything special, and it was WAY short. It wasn't terrible but I certainly wouldn't purchase this game for the SP alone.
 
"vaulted" along with titanflop 2 in less than 9 months past the release date .... (good thing I'm on a 25$/year sub ) don't think I'll preorder an EA title ever again .... last one was BF3, did not even bought into the BF4 hype ... I chose to pick it up from a store for 12$ about 2 years after the launch, BF games feel like paid beta testing at this point ....
 
The only way bf1 is fun to me is playing on the Sec 8 server. There are a ton of good regulars there so that we often get even matches. There are a lot of 1000-980 games that are just back and forth slug outs.
 
I'm 146 hours deep and still love this game. It's just so insanely polished. The graphics, the sound, the gameplay. It all adds up to a really intense experience and I don't think any other FPS comes close.
 
This game has been the biggest letdown (from a gaming standpoint) in the last five years for me. I was so excited to get down with a World War 1 game until I noticed everyone and their mom's running around with automatic rifles. Fucking stupid.

Glad I'm not the only one lol, I've put it down for now to play with my new rift but enjoyed it a lot until that arrived and will Ben picking it back up again soon.
 
I'm waiting for it to drop in price and then I plan on picking it up. It was between that and overwatch and I got hooked on overwatch for a while.

And if you're lucky there might still be other people playing it. Unreal that its not even 12 months old and only scraping 27,000 max daily players. BF is getting its arse kicked by the likes of Rocket League, Rainbow Six Siege and PUBG. Even ArmA3 has a healthier population.
 
Well the server I play in is plenty lively. =SEC8= or section 8 is a 64 man conquest server with admins. No map voting, no cussing in chat. Good fights aplenty though as most ppl there are what is left of the old guard.

I really like the game. Frontlines is the most fun I've had in a BF mode in a long time. It's a shame that there aren't many dedicated frontlines servers though.
 
Just played through the single player campaign.

several things

The 1080TI is an absolute beast. I could play it fairly smoothly at ultra settings at 7800x1440 in Surround.

The game is enjoyable single player, and three screens really makes it one notch more fun.

The flight levels with the plane and the mountains was jaw dropping gorgeous - as was the armored man run on the slopes of Italy.

Was the character dialogue out of sync in the cutscense for anyone else? It was off sync a bit with the 1080TI.

I'll be getting my liquid cooled vega in this week and plan to replay a few levels with that and see how it can hang at 7800x1440 with freesync. I have a suspicion that extra 30% speed on the 1080TI is helpful -- though memory usage shouldn't be a problem - even at 7800x1440 - it was only using a bit over 6GB of VRAM.
 
New map is out. Lupkow Pass. Just had a match that ended 1000-999. :eek:

Lots of Z-axis gameplay in this one, which means lots of snipers. Oh, and Calvary now have spears so you can joust to your hearts content. :D

Jesus. 1 map release. It's been a couple months since Nivelle Nights, and several more since the first DLC. We are now 10 months into this game. So far not only did the game launch with less maps than BF3 and BF4, We've only had 1 DLC launch and 2 free maps. :rage:


17 maps right now for BF1, 10 months in.

In this same time frame for BF4, we had the base game with 26 maps (base game + 4 DLC's). We also had a helluva lot more content included with each DLC, proper servers, and proper server administration to deal with cheaters. So far, the only thing better about this game than BF4 is that BF1 has been relatively more stable, but that isn't saying much.

I have become so completely bored, I've stopped playing altogether. I might give the game one last hurrah and come back for In the Name of the Tsar... but I don't know if some other big release this fall is going to pull me away.
 
Is it worth still getting BF1? I do not feel like buying the game and the season pass, only to have BF2 in a few months.

You can have BF2 now :) , but I know what you mean. I'm leaning toward Rising Storm 2 Vietnam.
 
Anyone still playing? Lots of new content with the "In the Name of the Tsar" expansion. I'm loving what I'm seeing so far. Six new maps, female snipers, new weapons, new game mode.

This map is frustrating as all hell. Once the enemy has a hold of the temple in the center it's just about impossible to break through. Our team couldn't take it, but we still won at a nail-biting 1000-999.

iTS CALLED flank dem!!!!!! You can keep the middle Ill own the rest of the map.

Yeah I'm loving the new content. I personally like that map, usually a fun round whenever I play it.

Oh I loved the map. It's a nice change of pace to fight over a large monument like the cathedral. I'm just saying that it's really difficult to breach. The only entry points are ground level and the cathedral is swarming with enemies both ground and upper levels. Our team actually held it in the beginning and it was so easy to just camp the upper deck and mow down everyone on the ground level. Somehow they breached it though. I think they all just Leeroy'd it and caught us by surprise. We tried so hard to take it back but it was impossible.
 
Are there any deals on the Seasons Pass (just interest in maps / weapons)? I'd consider paying $15 for it, but I've more or less stopped playing the game. Only 1-3 servers at best and general lack of interest on my part. At least for Conquest.
Between RS2 Vietnam and BF4 I don't have much time for BF1 but some of the DLC maps do looks interesting.

Premium was $30. Which is $15 per dlc. I suggest you try the section 8 server. Good players that actually use VoIP and squad play. There is going to be a new 5 v 5 mode too. I think its called incursions?
 
I wasn't aware that they ended the premium friends feature. My friend bought premium so that I could play the first DLC with him, and I wanted to check out the new DLC as well. If they bring back that feature that allows anyone to play the DLC maps, could someone please quote my post? I don't check origin often so I don't want to miss it since it is for a limited time.
