The entire Battlefield franchise is on a MASSIVE discount right now and it's driven the player counts to insane heights! #battlefield #steamsale #battlefield5
I just think people are desperate for a decent FPS game that isnt a battle royal or extremely sweaty like how COD has turned into. People just want something casual again.
@@Daevic10is battlebit sweaty overall or are you just running into players who are better? You should ask yourself this whenever you feel like “venting” over a shooter or any game really.
I really just want them to pick this game back up and do all of the major battles and conflicts they missed originally. They could make some serious money.
They should also offer free2play like Warzone Firestorm. This means that new players are coming and also bringing with them the money for cosmetics that EA loves. Further updates and new maps etc. bring EA far more revenue than in 2042.
It completely baffles me that they never introduced the soviet army. Like the main forces of WW2 was the Americans, Germans and Russians. But noo, japanese is the way to go. Imagine driving around in a T34 or IS1-2 in Bf5
As someone who still plays Battlefield V every day, If Dice made more DLC's for the game I would 100% wouldn't have a problem putting a couple thousand more hours into the game.
Most videos fail to praise the movement system in BFV. This game has the best movement in all FPS games still to this day. (Manual left/right leaning, Crouch sprinting, balanced sliding mechanic, prone on the back seeing where your legs extend, even falling from a height and crouch rolling to cancel fall dmg.) Really unsung movement hero this game.
I second everything you said here. I always felt, even from launch, that DICE absolutely nailed the player movement mechanics and made the gunplay feel superior to anything else on the market.
@@blake1535 A lot of that noise when BFV released was from incels and anti woke warriors who most probably didn't play BF and were jumping on a band wagon. BFV had issues on release but the biggest issues were DICE not standing their ground.
They already have the damn anticheat in 2042 they added it recently. I'm pretty sure it's integrated to the ea launcher so I don't see any reason they couldn't add it to all BF games with minimal effort.
@@noah1322 bruh what, BFV movement is the best one yet. Very smooth, feels very rewarding while being really easy to learn. BF2042 movement on the other side is just a copy paste of COD
@@fenharel2137 Yes, it's smooth, but it's way too fast, which promotes run-n-gun gameplay like COD. Compare the movement of BFV to BF4 and BC2 and you'll see what I mean. The movement in those games is slower, but it facilitates more tactical gameplay, which is fundamentally different from the movement of BFV. Bf2042 also has very fast, COD-like movement, but it feels more clunky than BFV. I'm saying that I prefer the slower movement in BF4
You hit on some of my exact thoughts. Battlefield games when they are good or fixed up are played for a long time and the franchise doesnt need to have releases every two years or so. Im hoping the new game will be a reboot and have support for multiple years to really flesh out the amount of content they could make.
@@alexdietrich7975to each of its own. Many people prefer the seriousness and grittiness of BF1 over more saturated, faster, inclusive, unlimited sliding BFV. Battlefield where the skins started to become silly and the game started leaning towards the abomination of what BF2042 is.
I would love to see a new DLC for BF1 or BFV. There's still so much more they could explore, like East Africa and Serbia in BF1 and the Eastern Front and China in BFV.
Having the balkan and Caucasian front would cover all major fronts of WW1. Then stuff like the siege of tsingdao, East and west Africa and maybe some more post WW1 wars like the Polish soviet war, Anglo irish war or sumthing
I really want a cold war battlefield game that innovates on soldier customization, authentic uniforms being key, games just feel better when they're immersive, and multiple factions like russian, China, America (Pacific/Europe specific), Britain, and so on, or even multiple eras with different equipment, that would be pretty cool.
Couldn’t agree more, it is weird they haven’t done a Cold War gone hot Battlefield yet, seems like the perfect mix. I’ve personally always hoped they go for a 1980’s scenario, but honestly any decade of the Cold War would be interesting.
BF5 one of the best games of all time once the Pacific DLC came out. It's just so beautiful, the explosions, the drama, the near misses. Exceptional. So true about skipping the major conflicts, what a missed opportunity. I like almost all of the maps, but people want to play those major battles. A "Turning Points" DLC would just kickass. D-Day, Stalingrad, the Ardennes, Dunkirk, so many to choose from.
I jumped back into BFV after having it from Games Pass for a bit. It was not only the cheapest, but probably my favourite of the more modern Battlefield games. Not a bad deal for $3.63 CDN. Now, between BFV and Battlebit, I feel like I'm finally "back" into Battlefield style games. Really haven't been since BF2. Yeah I'm old.
It’s been my daily game the last two years I’m glad to see more of you guys hop back on it’s always nice to see new faces and big player numbers on the game
@@SonOfAdolfnah its absolute garbage man. The maps are whack, all weapons feel the same super laser and the graphic is shit. Also playercount is super low
@@Detlefkarstenherbert I concur. 2042 maps are not fun. I also don't like their ideas regarding weapons. Less is more IMO, just make a good balanced game without the excessive weapons mods.
I love BF5 and would like to keep on playing it, but the hackers are just so unbearable jumping from server to server, there's always a Lewis gun that headshot everyone
Just dove into Battlefield V on a whim during the Steam sale, and it's a total blast! Never played a Battlefield game before, but the high player count this week caught my eye. I chose to play BF5 because it had the most players among all other BF titles which was like 92K. Loving the experience so far!
Just reinstalled BFV on Steam and played for a couple of hours. Had an absolute blast and made a bunch of battle buddies to boot. It feels weird to play a game that has unlocks that don't force me to use five guns I hate just to get the one that I want.
I played last night, servers were full and after two matches I was back into the groove. I love that I can go back and play this again with all my skins and unlocks.
I miss Firestorm, to be honest. I know I'm in the minority here, but I still think it's arguably the best BR to date. Had they not put it behind a paywall and make it free to play with other BRs, I think it would still be poppin.
BFV is a game that's always had a great foundation despite its many issues. Despite preferring Hell Let Loose now, I'm happy to see this game finally get love years later.
I was just thinking about making a return to Battlefield V and didn't even know about the sale boosting player counts. Battlefield I had the best level de-evolution. Entire buildings in various maps could disappear if the fight were persistent enough. I really hope they get back to that. It really changes how the game plays and feels, making each round seem different every time.
Oh what I'd give for a Battlefield V DLC that brings in the major battles of the war. Battle of the Kursk, just loads of tanks. Battle of Stalingrad. Pure gruesome urban warfare. D-Day. Absolutely brutal beach assault. Even the Battle of Berlin! So, so many options. So, so many missed opportunities.
As some one who started playing Battlefield in 2023 , I absolutely love it felt like a breath of fresh air after a year of sweaty valorant , BF 1 was the one i played first during august too say i love it will be a understatement , loved the sniping , the maps , I recently got a NEW rig and have been playing a lot of 2042 its a good game for me beacuse i love sniping and it does that really well and is a good game to play if turn your brain off and chill and just have a ton of fun
It actually hurts to see Bf5 doing so well and knowing I can't jump back in like I did before. I played bf5 from launch up until the launch of bf2042 and put hundreds of hours into it, but I was forced to stop playing as my EA account was locked due to be not logging into their website for so long and was forced to reset my password in order to play. Issue is the email I used for that account is long gone and when I tried answering the security questions I kept getting them wrong as its very old information. So I had to make a whole new profile in order to play 2042 as I wasn't that far into it, but the idea of going back to the older titles after losing all my progress was daunting
BFV is a really underrated game, i never understood the hate it got. I was expecting to see features like the soldier editor & squad call ins to be carried over into 2042 and they never made it, such a shame
It was very mediocre especially after the bombshell that was BF1. Didn't bring anything new to the table at all and launched with a lot of negative attention.
The campaign sucked, they tried to get more woke, made lots of strange decisions for gameplay and had a ducked up launch. How do you have trouble understanding people not liking that? A few new cool features doesn’t cancel all that out.
@@ExpertContrarian at this point accusations of "woke" have just lost all meaning. One war story had you playing as a teenage girl and another as a black French colony soldier, sfw? The last one had you playing as a literal Nazi in a tiger tank. The main faults of the campaigns were them leaning in to stealth which didn't really suit and that there was only 4 of them, it would have been great to see something like Omaha Beach or Stalingrad in that engine, as much as they've both been done before. The gameplay changes - attrition system, focus on squad play (if that is what you're referring to) - were fantastic imo. They gave an MP match a sense of urgency with cool rewards and it really suited the WW2 setting without trying to be an all out war-sim
@@voorachter2733 its true that its biggest crime was coming after BF1 - even if it did make sense as a war series - but not because it was lackluster in comparison. BF1 was a phenomenal achievement because not everyone was sold on the idea of a WW1 FPS game being fun, and they proved to everyone it could be done - but true to the era, the period vehicles were clunky and slow (because they had to be) and the weapons weren't as customisable as in previous titles (because they couldn't be). To then go in to more of that old world war style with BFV left a lof of people wanting to get back to a modern setting - which they then completely muffed up with 2042 and its extensive departures from the BF model
It would be insane if they did surpise DLCS for bf5... honestly it would be. Ive been playing this game still since launch regardless of the high interest now and still a big fan.
i think 2042 would have been even bigger at this point if they had great maps. i mean look at the BF5 maps, so much versatile for all kind of players where as most of the 2042 maps are just open with out major covers. so basically you either have to play as a sniper or get inside vehicles. i might back on BFV right now. thanks for making this video.
They didn’t bolt all canons to the floor on naval ships. They sat on rails. Bolting canons to a ship could make it sway unpredictably so it had to be offset somehow.
I just want Battlefield 2 and BF1942 with modern gameplay mechanics and graphics. The more slow paste gameplay wasn't a downside imho. CoD always catered towards the fast FPS enjoyers back in the day and BF to the more "tactical" players. I really would love to see a more tactical, slower paste BF that still isn't as Hardcore as e. g. Squad or Hell let Loose.
Had the itch and jumped back into 2042 after about a year and holy, it may not be perfect, but its a hell of a lot better. Just so addicting to play and so much fun. But now that I see BFV is getting up there in player count again, I may have to dabble with that.
I hope the next game is more like BF3/BF4. I was so disappointed by 2042 that I refunded it and never looked back, even though I've heard it's better now. I never cared much for many of the design decisions in that game, so I'll just wait for the next one.
Just picked both BFV and 2042 up, content for both keeps showing up on my youtube homepage and I've been eyeing them for a while so this sale is the perfect time to snag both!
Battlefield V has honestly been my favorite Battlefield released (I was sort of late to the party, started at the end of 4). I get the launch wasn’t great, but I thought it was insane how many people pushed this game to the side early on. And now everyone comes crawling back. I wish for nothing more than if the devs came back and added a D-Day map for Breakthrough, similar to how Iwo Jima was designed, added an Operation Market Garden map for Grand Ops, a Battle of the Bulge map for Conquest, and some Eastern Front maps as well
I was there for the original launch of the game, and man it was difficult to publicly like it. You got blasted immediately when voicing sth positive about it, and I'm truly happy that BFV is much more liked nowadays. The game deserves it!
I love this game. I got it late in 2021. I am still not great as I continue to work with my settings. I just love that we can be the Germans or Japanese. In most games you have to be allied Soldiers or French Partisans. Lastly even with some the problems I prefer to play this game over BF 2042's future war
I would be more willing to spend money on more content for this game than the current one.if they had any sense they would go back to supporting this game over 2043. I know me and my friends would support that over the new one!
I'm so happy that people are actually playing BFV. All of the gameplay mechanics they brought into BFV create such an immersive and great experience imo. The worst thing about it is it's bare bones progression system.
I joined BF when they released the wake island demo back in 2002, did some developing for multiple BF2 mods and quit playing with BF4. A few months ago I came back, bought BF 1 and 5 and enjoy both big time. Great to see they still attract a big player base
I picked it up from the sale for the first time and have played a few hours now. It's actually really fun and the sound design is amazing! Only problem I have it my PC isn't good enough...
The problem is bfv was an actual battlefield game. 2042 was something no one ever wanted. I wish it did have the big conflicts and brought the eastern front would have been good I feel they pulled plug way to soon to rush 2042 out why I don't know. I do agree destruction is what made people love the game and 2042 with the lack of that is a killer. I can't even enjoy 2042 so I have left and gone to hell let loose. It's nice to play an actual military shooter and not this future style of a game.
I agree with the longevity aspect. Graphics are just starting to get to the point of diminishing returns as well. I see hardware being able to stay relevant much longer before being outdated too. We are at the point where these graphics with good frame rates will always look pretty good even years down the road.
Recently, I purchased a PlayStation 5 and acquired both Battlefield 2042 and Battlefield 5. I must say, Battlefield 5 runs smoothly and boasts impressive visuals. It is easy to pick up and I particularly enjoy the Pacific content, as it provides a satisfying historical setting. Playing Battlefield 5 feels incredibly enjoyable overall. On the other hand, my expectations for Battlefield 2042 were initially quite low. However, as a new player, I found it fun to explore the new maps and spent a solid 10 hours immersed in the game. Despite this, I couldn't help but notice that Battlefield 2042 lacks the familiar four-class system that is characteristic of the Battlefield series. Additionally, the overall sense of distruction feels off, and the game's futuristic setting seems too far removed from the traditional Battlefield experience. This comes from someone that only played a lot of BF1 and really enjoyed that game :). I will keep playing both games for the coming months. Really hope to see some new content for atleast Battlefield 2024.
The difference between Battlefield and Call Of Duty can be seen in the franchises’ older games. The older Call Of Duty games only have sweats still playing them, whereas the older Battlefield games have healthy player counts from a variety of players including veterans and new players (because EA, unlike Activision, is willing to put old games on sale). Battlefield 1 and V are such quality games that they can even get intertwined with other industries, notably with _All Quiet In The Western Front_ (2022) boosting Battlefield 1’s player count. Since 2042 was made to mimic Call Of Duty, I think it’s unlikely it will have resurgences after its final update as Battlefield 1 and V have.
Hear me out Battlefield: Bay Days *destruction focus is populated areas * match cinematic events ( flash floods, fire , or final destination shih) * optional ptsd like mechanics for win streaks * unique map locations ( big asp ship, detailed city, jungle)
I bought bf5 on sale recently, I’m a long time bf fan but never picked it up before. After I bought it I had all the dlc, all the guns unlocked at level 1, and 10,000 in game currency. The gameplay is fun and I’m happy the dlc was included, but having everything unlocked off rip makes me feel like I’m not working towards anything as I play. And since I have more than enough in game currency to spend before I likely get bored it’s the same problem. But for less than $5 it’s a hell of a deal
The last battlefield I played was 1942. Hopped back in into 2042. Only reason I didn't picked up bf V was that I read that I stopped being updated and developed só I didn't felt safe investing in the game. But it's definetly the best BF game available nowadays.
"This BF is not what I want, let's hope the devs learn their lesson and the next one will be it" *FOR* the living, vivid, breathing, actually conscious piece of the smallest matter ever that would constitute as a F*** which thereof could give somewhat of a spec of, ever so tiny, S*** as in ... well, that one I refuse to go into detail: A hail mary of BFV into a hail mary is a cheap. Hope the 2/3 YT premium shared is less than a Dollar. Idea man, ideas. Not recycling, I mean .. what is this, seriously?!
I started to play BF5 because of the Xbox Game Pass since I was a Call of Duty player then I jumped in and fell in love with the atmosphere and the destruction of the game. I didn’t like 2042 even though I was hyped for it.
Im 41 and just bought Battlefield 1 and 5 . Xbox black Friday deals. Only ever played BF 3 a little bit. Im running BF 1 right now , and wow ! How did i not play this til now ? Amazing game . 😅
DICE has to understand that BFV, BF1 and 2045 have to co-exist together. Not everyone likes WW1 let alone sacrificing the weapon customization we had for BF3 and BF4
I tried this game in 2020 and 2021, deleted twice. I thought I cant play because I got slow internet and I was dying too quick. I couldnt find a meaning to play, born run and immediately die? Now I installed again, watched some tutorials, and played 270 hours of company of heroes 2... Now everything started to click, im into 10 hours and its one of the greatest gaming experiences Ive had. It is so immersive, medic is so fun to smoke and revive and finding a good position to open your bipods of Support gun and shred everyone who comes close is feeling matched to none. Game is casual but got hardcore mechanics like overheating. Everythings fun. I wanna open every class and play 500 hours... And Im on PS4 with slow internet, I cant imagine this game with cable connection with fast internet and Good PC even PS4&5
Something I never hear anyone talk about with BFV is the movement, it feels so good! I love that we're able to dive to our side, or roll to our backs while prone. I also love the vaulting and climbing system, being able to jump and grab a ledge to climb on is such a cool feature.
I bought Battlefield 1 and Battlefield v on Steam at a discount and it is the first time I have played both games and they are great, especially Battlefield 1, I loved it
Bringing back support to battlefield 5 would be the smartest and best choice for EA and Dice to make. If it were to ever happen, the next dlc should be to bring in France as a nation, they put in maps taking place in France and the battle of France during 1940 but never included the French army. Plus it would be nice to see the weapons and vehicles and soldiers from it. The eastern front, and the Italian front should be brought in as well. The Pacific could also be expanded to something like the battle of midway and Okinawa. Hell, maybe the battle of Pearl harbor too.
I've been enjoying this game since launch and never understood the hate it received. BFV has the best gameplay in the series, movement feels very smooth and satisfying. The only problem I have with it is the lack of maps. They should've released at least one more DLC with three or four new maps, even if they were just remasters from the old BF games.
What killed Battlefield 2042 for me was they worked on the game for 15 months and somehow decided to try and replicate modern warfare movement when they had BFV to replicate I was just explaining this to my gf how BFV movement is revolutionary and how later Battlefield games can learn and innovate off of it there was supposed to be a option to pull downed teammates as a medic in this game and it went no where.
I’d be so happy if they would just make a good Vietnam game again. Make it just like the BC2: Vietnam DLC but flesh it out more. Same quips, gameplay, make it simple yet super fun, etc. Since they’re killing quite possible two of the best battlefield games ever, they gotta fill that hole with something.
i still run 60 fps on high graphics with my gtx 1070, wich is btw bottlenecked by my cpu, so you dont have to have a monster pc to enjoy the graphics of this game, it's amazing
