Aaaand bought. Came very close to pulling the trigger on the $30 physical version at Target earlier but I really wanted it digitally. Score!

Battlefield V is 50 percent off for returning players on Xbox One
- Thread starter Coolduderedux
- Start date
Its only one discount. %50 for previous players or 10% EA Access.
Bought. Normally I would wait a bit longer for BF to get another couple months of polish but this was too good to pass.
What is a previous player ? Need some online leaderboard participation ?
Apparently you'll see the offer if you are running an earlier game.
The deal is only available via a pop up ad in game when you load up BF1. I guess its technically previous BF game owner, but they say its "returning players".
i dont really think its worth it. To be honest it doesn't really feel like battlefield anymore. if you ever wondered what cod was like at 32 or 64 players this is it. I feel empty playing this game. That clunky battlefield feeling is gone.I It makes me annoyed they tried catering to the cod crowd. Also forget any of these crybabies saying it doesn't feel like ww2. Its ww2 for sure. it's just not a good game. its pretty weak. the maps are pretty dull and the progression system is underwhelming. It's not surprising this game is already half off or whatever it's a mediocre game at best.
I was telling a friend this feels like the medal of honor game those guys put out a while back that killed the series. It's just completely out of touch with the audience. I read a while back that a bunch of guys who made the original battlefields left to other studios but it wouldn't surprise me cause bf1 and bfv dont feel like battlefield games. these dudes even took out the infinite parachute. the glory days of battlefield are over. it's just a high budget generic pile of garbage now.

Yup, I'm a bit tempted to go for the 50%(?)off on the Deluxe version that's offered through BF1
Wow, that's pretty nuts (and fast).
Wasn't Battlefield 1 just free with gold? So lots of people would own it and be able to take part in this. I'm just going to borrow it from the library to beat the campaign, because Battlefield multiplayer is too big and involved for me. I prefer smaller, more contained shooters.

I've haven't spent $60 on games since 2011..... and never will XD. Why? because this and Black Fridays are why haha
They need to remaster and rerelease 1942 or 1943.
I'd also buy a remaster of the first Bad Company. Loved its campaign.

Man, RDR2 might be enjoying more than what it already deserves. F76 and B5 both shit the bed hard. Less competitors to worry about.
The bloody game was only just discounted over the weekend in the Christmas sales by 37%. Now it's 50% off only a couple days later. Playstation won't refund the difference neither. Bunch of thieves.
Probably find this game under $10 in dollar stores by Boxing Day.
Only if they keep the gameplay style of the original games, which is what makes them superior and unique. Not in remakes if they play like modern bf games.

Zero interest in this game and I bought the last two mainline games. BF just seems stale now. I don't like historic war settings for competitive SHOOTERS either.
They really need to change something significant in gameplay BF series becoming stale and boring.
It's kinda fascinating how bad a lot of games are selling the last 2 months. That has to go into the history books, cause that kinda feels like a little new videogame crash already.
No matter if it's Hitman 2, Fallout 76, Darksiders 3 or BFV. All extremely discounted after a few days and weeks, with some games like Hitman 2 and Darksiders 3, even before they even got released!
Crazy.
I guess getting the sales and numbers with the price cuts would be more beneficial right now, if they want people there for the long tail revenue. Hope they'll also start to offer it on the PS4 version later on. I'd imagine they would also want to make a marketing push during the launch of the Firestorm BR mode.
It's a shame BFV (apparently) sold poorly. It feels so good! I highly recommend jumping in at $30!
How does it feel like Call of Duty? I've been playing a lot of Black Ops 4 and BF1 recently and both of these games feel pretty different. How has BFV changed from BF1 control or "feel" wise that it's CoDified?
Yeah this is one lesson I learned this year. Unless it's a Nintendo game there's really just no reason.
Damm true they gotta add more content and fix a couple of stuff.
Also, bring back the playerbase last thing I want is to get to February and have empty servers
Normally I don't buy digital games but in this case we recently got a second PS4 in the house so the missus and I can play together. It was cheaper buying the game digitally than two retail copies. We bought it over the weekend during the Christmas sale where it was discounted by 37% which was better than nothing but to have it drop even further to 50% off within only a couple of days was a low blow.
Thanks for the heads up. I bought it this morning shortly after you posted this thread and I've had a lot of fun with it. Maybe more fun than any MP shooter I've played since Halo 5.
My friends bought this physically day one and I didn't, because of this. I'd jump in but guess what, they haven't played it since that day.
Plus I don't wanna download 80gb and then another entire game. It'll probably be at this price normally when the BR mode drops.

I got many friends on PS whose BF4 Blu Ray stopped working for playing too many Horus lol.
Jumped at it! Glad i held off from my usual impulse launch day purchase.
I've always enjoyed the WW2 setting and I hope that the MP game play has the legs to be a good game over the long run.

Yeah, feels crummy. I mean, I wish the games would stay where they were for at least 6 months before really going on sale. I maybe only pick up 2 games a year at launch, everything else, I wait for at least a 30-50% price drop for the other 8-10 games I buy. It wouldn't be so bad to knock 5 bucks off during that 6 or so months, but half or 25% price drop is kind of nuts within 2 or so weeks of launch.
Xbox user in Denmark here, worked as advertised when i booted up BF1.
Thanks. So you had to boot up bf1 in order to get the deal.
I just looked on the store.
Thanks
So does having installed the EA Access version of BF1 given you access to the discounted price? Or did you have to actually own BF1?
My bad , it just seems like they pump out a game annually if you count battlefront does that work
Battlefront > Battlefield 1 > Battlefront II > Battlefield V works as a yearly release cadence. Separate teams within DICE, with help of an external team on Battlefront's single-player.
The mainline proper DICE team still only does Battlefield. Base on how thin BFV is on content, it feels like DICE needs 3 years between releases though, not two.
