Interesting. There sure was a lot of negative hype (thanks to the whole "women in mah ww2???" bullshit mainly), November was also full as shit, not to mention a lot of Xbox One owners play EA games through EA Access. I don't think the game risks death, I'll surely find matches in the biggest game modes all the way until the next 1-2 Battlefield games drop, but interesting numbers for sure.
Also the game shipped without some of the famous battles and 3 major countries. That prob had an effect as well.

Ah man... I have a million other games to play, but I'm really tempted to grab this today. My new soundbar will arrive today and I want a game that really shows it off. Someone push me over the edge and tell me how great the audio is lol

Is the dynamic weather working as intended elenarie ?

The snowstorm looks amazing on Fjell and creates a pretty unique gameplay but i only experienced it twice and im yet to see a sandstorm. Its so rare :(

Rainy weather is pretty common tho and i havent seen a single foggy weather.

Yesterday was the first time I experienced the snowstorm on Fjell and you are right, it is amazing. The snowstorm started right as soon as the game started, but ended less than 10 minutes later. I wish it would have stuck around longer since it was different.

When there's a plane coming down or shooting at the ground you will have flashback to any film or documentary of them. The V1 explosion is one of the best sounds in gaming.

You owe it to yourself

And I want that you can use any skin with any class.
I want to mix and match them all and make my class look epic instead me being forced to play class I dont want to.
I dont know. I like specific stuff. Now alot of my skins dont really match the class. I hope like the one i posted in the previous page on the left with the camera would be a recon skin.
Or maybe theme outfit packs. Like it has a theme but for every class it looks abit different.

People dont mark objectives and dont follow orders in CQ, WHY?! Get outta here and play shitty TDM. Hate this game when playing it alone but love it when playing with friends.

Yeah, I've had a snowstorm show up at the start and mid match before and it was amazing. Want more of that, please.

I'm going to go ahead and jump in and say that weather effects are too infrequent. Somewhere between how it is now and BF1 would be great.

Game is really fun.

But please do not increase the amount of time when bad weather occurs. That is not fun. It wasn't fun in bf 1. Playing in a blizzard or snowstorm or rain effects is fine on the rare occasions it currently happens but its incredibly annoying to play in that sort of weather often. Battlefield shouldn't be a realism simulator. It should be a fun simulator. And not being able to see much of the time is not fun.

weather if sun because it forces you to play differently.

Yeah, for a new release with such a big name it's doing really bad. On german amazon the PS4 version is on #13 and the Xbox version is on #48. In the Media Markt store it doesn't look much better: #14 on PS4 bestellers and #16 on XBox bestsellers.

There is also Deluxe edition which was released 5 days ago, so it may be difficult to read these numbers.

Moreover, I bought BFV digitally because it was -10% with EA Acccess / BF1. I think digital sales will be a big part of BFV sales.

However, it's certain the reveal trailer made big damages.

What about Fallout 76 ? I don't see it on Amazon Best Sellers (videogames) in Germany.

Does this game have spotting or not?

Sometimes I press R1 and it just places a fixed marker on the environment but does nothing else, sometimes it does call out that there is someone there.

3D spotting has been removed so enemies aren't tagged when mashing the spot button. It will place a marker of where attack is coming from. The only exception is can mark tanks.

As recon / sniper you tag enemies if you hit them, not 100% if that's a specialisation though. As recon you can also use flare gun to mark enemies on the map and spot them using the binoculars.

Of course people are going digital. I also bought it digital because I got the deluxe edition für X1 for 61 €.... but it feels a bit strange to see such a big franchise not even in the top 10.

You can only spot an area. But you can also spot tanks. Soldiers can only be spotted as a recon.

Guess I won't bother spotting then. I really only used it to assist with headshots.

I had my first dynamic weather game last night on Fjell as well and thought it was awesome. It actually made the game play 'different'. But, I wish it lasted longer. Have yet to experience weather anywhere else. I'm guessing sandstorm on Hamada? What are other dynamic weather events/maps I should look for?

Ive been enjoying the campaign. I dont know why it gets so much hate. Its short, but I like the little stories they tell.

I enjoyed the BF1 story a bunch too.

Man, its so hard to see people in this game. What the hell.

Personally this is an issue I've always had with Battlefield games, I think that's why the spot feature was so ubiquitous before. I actually like that you're not constantly being tagged and highlighted for the entire team now, it only gives a general location, but it also complicates factors in the people always seem to have a better advantage on me than I do on them even when I'm laying down hidden barely peeking out behind some cover.

I really struggle to pick people out.

It is good in a squad, mainly to mark dangers that you might see that your team misses. Everyone can do that but Recons can mark with flares and the monocular. Some weapons also tag if you damage or suppress.

The spotting options are better and more varied than the previous mashing a button and shoot the dorito.

I get that they wanted to be able to advertise that they have a campaign after CoD scrapped theirs but now I am sitting here thinking that maybe they were onto something with CoD. The single player is nothing to write home about or even think about post credits. Nobody is going to buy this game to strictly play the single player portion, if they do they are of a rare bunch. I would have much preferred the resources went into more mp maps/guns/skins, ya know, the reason most people even buy a battlefield game.

You know what would have been better than scrapping the campaign? Having another entire year of development to make everything about the game better. But EA needs their yearly shooter.

I can actually see enemies fairly well, it doesn't seem any easier than older BF games though. Game feels great without 3d spotting.

There aren't helicopters in this game right? I've always been so terrible with airplanes. Is the main goal to dogfight the other planes or to somehow shoot at infantry on the ground?

I suspect I'd enjoy bomber piloting if I can get the hang of how to maneuver.
