Do better to earn unlocks faster. The important ones can be earned quickly.
Nope, the unlock system became a tedious bloated borefest quite intentionally and blatantly designed to wear down people into paying to skip it. Playing a game shouldn't feel like a chore but that's exactly what EA and DICE achieved with their convoluted trash system.
There was a reason why ranking servers were so popular, was fucking hilarious watching hoards of players running between flags in tanks, humvees and planes to fast track their unlocks with an unspoken rule not to kill each other.
the tornado is funny. I was digging the trailer till that part I'm like ehh? but I guess it makes sense cause of global warming in 2042 there will be tornados everywhere and all the time.Wow. Very good trailer. And I'm glad I didn't buy too much into the severely pixelated leaks over the last several weeks. Because this trailer is a lot of fun. Digs up the roots of what made us all fall in love with Battlefield in the first place, and with added features too.
The tornado is a big LOL, but a fun one that I'd happily welcome.
I didn't see the reveal, did they reveal player or map count at all? Any news on the firestorm?
The lack of campaign should be celebrated. The campaigns for BF3 and BF4 were actually good, IMO, however most people played it once - if that - and then only multiplayer thereafter.Wow.

128 Player matches, 7 maps, 3 multiplayer modes(no firestorm or campaign.
Looks like they skimmed it down to enhance what they've got.
I was laughing so hard at them trying to run away on that dinkey little 3 wheeled tuk-tuk taxi. Another "only in battlefield moment" where you go "OH SHIT!" as you try desperately to get away.The tornado is a big LOL, but a fun one that I'd happily welcome.
wow, im really getting impressed. but it seems bizarre theres no battle royale. warzone has made over 2 billion. tons of people are playing it, I don't really understand. I'm going to assume it comes as a free to play game later on next year. if they announce it before the paid version of the game releases you have alot of people just waiting.
I don't think it failed because it sucked. It failed because it was locked behind a $60 game whereas all other BRs were completely free. If DICE really went all in on a FREE BR, I'm sure they could compete.No battle royale because Firestorm sucked hardcore.
I've noticed a few things about the possible story...
I was listening to the random radio chatter on the countdown stream, and heard a few things that seem to indicate a 3rd faction like "US and Russian forces have been accused of escalating the conflict"... almost like they are getting involved in someone else's war.
There was another quote that mentioned "who are you going to fight for when there are no countries left?" or something like that.
Then I noticed something else in the trailer itself. I saw obvious US and Russian vehicles and weapons... but a new logo on the side of some of the troops and vehicles that looks like a giant capital "N".

Then we get a giant missile launch that everyone is trying to shoot down, and a giant tornado inside a city that pops up out of nowhere (which rarely happens IRL).
Anyone else getting GI JOE weather dominator vibes? LMAO. Then the story for BF2142 was there was a freak rapidly onset ice-age in the middle of global warming so it kinda fits.
Maybe some tie-ins to the Phantom program from BF4 and BF1?
All just fun random speculation. I could be completely wrong too.
Praise the lord!but it seems bizarre theres no battle royale.
Exactly. firestorm was good, but they put it into a game that was regarded as bad with a dwindling player baseI don't think it failed because it sucked. It failed because it was locked behind a $60 game whereas all other BRs were completely free. If DICE really went all in on a FREE BR, I'm sure they could compete.
That's also true. But it also sucked hardcore and couldn't even get a decent player base from existing BF players.I don't think it failed because it sucked.

Tech Radar has all the maps so far, check it out. Scroll down a bit and they'll have a bit of detail for each one.So one thing I noticed missing in the trailer was sea based vehicles. Do we know if that'll be in the game or not?
so don't play it? no one is saying replace conquest with BR.thank god for no br. I've had enough br
Yep they lifted from the official EA page. Every site frantically trying to get clicks, god bless em. Source:Tech Radar has all the maps so far, check it out. Scroll down a bit and they'll have a bit of detail for each one.
looks like we're getting less mapsTech Radar has all the maps so far, check it out. Scroll down a bit and they'll have a bit of detail for each one.
Yes, it will be in the game, especially on the map Kaleidoscope.So one thing I noticed missing in the trailer was sea based vehicles. Do we know if that'll be in the game or not?
The lack of campaign should be celebrated. The campaigns for BF3 and BF4 were actually good, IMO, however most people played it once - if that - and then only multiplayer thereafter.

So the criticism of DICE was often "screw the campaign and devote all your resources to the multiplayer, FFS".
Well now they did it. And almost undoubtedly there will be the "what, no campaign?" idiots, including the inevitable reviews citing "no campaign" as a negative - but they can suck it!
looks like we're getting less maps
bf1: 9
bf5: 8
bf2042: 7
Next series of questions for me - is there going to be a server list, and custom server option still? Hardcore mode too?
Custom time limits? Or are we going to be subjected to the crappy COD style time limits?
I'm hoping for at least a decent 30 to 45 minute battle per match.
