    Single player is full of incorrect facts, example being the heavy water production in Norway, why couldn’t DICEEA just follow the proper historical events? That would be so much better.

    I was so looking forward to the heavy water mission, playing the role of Norwegian heroes, boy what a disappointment.
    Instead we play the role of ONE girl called Solveig, who take on a whole German army by herself. Seems DICE and EA wants to change history because of "Political correctness", it’s sad and weak. It would be like they made a game with flat earth.
    In single player the gameplay feels like your common DoomWolfensteinDukenukem or any other first-person shooter gameplay from 1990s-2010s, where you solo a bunch of stuff yourself, simply boring.
    Also, what’s with the damn voices? Why on earth do we have to listen to a foreign language? It’s not like I’m going to read damn subtitles while I’m in a firefight!
    However, the major player base is going to play multiplayer, so that might be the reason why single player is such a mess.

    Multiplayer is ok, not much to say really, it’s same as before with a little more BF3 feel. However, the classes should be a bit more balanced, seems medic has a huge disadvantage over long range combat maps at the moment.
    Rumor has it that BF 5 has a matchmaking system and is supposed to balance players? If so, that is very good, it isn’t fun meeting a team of players who play videogames as a job, just imagine racing a F1 driver...And since the last patch multiplayer has been an enjoyment, with good balance, hope it lasts.
    I don’t understand the complaint that there are female characters however, you could just choose not to play as one, but yeah, their screams are a bit annoying.    … Expand

    The customizing of your weapons is poorly implemented. Cosmetic unlocks that don't impact the performance of the gun? Why have them in the game?!

    Strange netcode makes it feel like you're getting hit by a wall of enemy fire, while from their perspective, they're hitting you with a long, sustained rifle burst to take you down. It makes for an odd experience.

    Lots of bugs.

    For a AAA game, this game sure doesn't live up to it.    … Expand

    The game is devoid of content and starving for more big maps. Suppression effect is gone which negates the whole machine gunner/support class except for being a moving bullet dispenser.

    The only positives are 3D-spotting is kept to a minimum, graphics and sound are great and fortifications are awesome.

There's not even a report button in the game! The only other title where I saw more hackers than on this Battlefield was GTA V.

    It should be noted though that the negative scores (2.9 average as of November 2021) are representative of the state of the game upon release, where the initial maps were quite bad (as in different from previous WWII games) and some people were angry because there were women in game (go figure). The current state of the game is pretty much on the same level as Battlefield 1 which has a 7.1 average user score.    … Expand

Parece que a DICE le va quedando grande tanta responsabilidad.
    Lo han usado como campaña política en cuanto a la igualdad sexista (parece que hay más mujeres que hombres), desafiaron a los mismos compradores de la franquicia (insólito), censura, falla argumental y de precisión en cuanto a la posición histórica donde se quiere situar el juego, sin contenido básicamente tanto en multijugador como en campaña (es muy corta y mala, de las peores)... Todo lo que no debió hacer lo ha hecho.

    Los errores principales: - Lo mismo que Battlefield 1 pero esta vez aún más desafiante y marcado (algo que les terminó costando caro): Agenda de "diversidad e igualdad" que lo expresan no sólo en la portada (la portada debe ser representativo del acontecimiento, pero de nuevo pusieron a una minoría como la mujer en la 2ª Guerra Mundial) sino también en todo el juego... De manera irreal se ve a veces hasta más cantidad de mujeres y negros que de nazis blancos arios... Insólito - Multijugador decepcionante: Los mapas son mediocres y todo lo que es diversidad de armas (esta era importante y no lo otro) es flojo. - Mismo error que Battlefield 1: Campaña muy mala con mini historias de fascículo, cortas, con imprecisión histórica y desperdicio de la temática de la 2ª Guerra Mundial. Parece que para EA y Dice está mal ser blanco, rubio y ario, que hay que meter mujeres y negros en esos lugares (claramente, una bajada de línea). Les creería, pero es la 2ª vez consecutiva que lo hacen. - Censura de símbolos históricos de la Guerra como la de los nazis. Guste o no, forman parte de nuestra historia. -Battle Royale muerto.

    En fin, el mayor pecado de este juego es tener escaso contendido. A las 10 horas ya no sabía qué hacer, se hace repetitivo y aburrido. La campaña es ultra decepcionante.
    Calificación de juego: 4.5. Calificación por politización, campaña de "igualdad y diversidad" en acontecimientos donde no hay lugar a eso, y falta de respeto a la Segunda Guerra Mundial: 2.
    Edito: Recomiendo Call of Duty WWII en su lugar que narra mejor los hechos de la Guerra Mundial, aunque igual no llega a ser épico como uno espera de una temática así, pero algo es algo.    … Expand

    Shooting mechanics are polished and rewarding. Visually, the game is good. Far Cry 5 is better looking and runs a whole lot better (although that's a different beast, being singleplayer/co-op). Just saying.

    A proper single-player campaign is extremely important to me. Battlefield has never had a genuinely amazing one. The stupid war stories of BF1 and BFV are dreadful stealth missions that follow a pattern for each segment. It's repetitive and half-assed. I found 2D sprites for trees on one level, and I assume those kinds of cheap shortcuts were used in all the levels. The singleplayer is pointless, but it shouldn't be! They could have made it robust and unique. The cinematic capabilities of their engine are obvious, but wasted here. It's all about pushing that yearly title and getting those pre-orders. EA, you suck real bad.

    The multiplayer is still at 64-players. Squad is at 80 players, and may be pushing to 100-player servers. The maps feel empty a lot of the time to me. Just a big cat and mouse mess. They did put in some game-modes that establish a front line. That is essential to promote objective-based teamplay. Good job there. I had fun in the Grand Operations! The good news is there are no DLCs. The bad news is by the time they release enough content to have a full game, it'll be time for the next release and everyone will abandon BFV!

    We have to get out of this yearly release schedule. The fans will be excited to play a game as good as BF3 for a few years while DICE develops a complete product for 3 years or so.

    Good ☻
    Visually.. good.. not much improvement over BF1. Brighter color palette
    Gameplay is clean and rewarding for the most part

    Bad ◘_◘
    Performance problems. Very CPU intensive game, no my computer is not a "potato."
    Basically no single-player. It's so bad that it might as well not be there.
    No story, just little made up PC culture mini stories presented poorly
    PC culture invaded the game
    Bad marketing
    Incomplete game upon release. Next cycle will render any updates in 2019 pointless because another game will be coming out and BFV will be abandoned
    Historically makes no sense and ignores all the big, well-known battles. They made up "lesser-known" stories to try and be unique. Just give us D-Day in Normandy, Battle of the Bulge, Siege of Stalingrad, and even the Pacific theater with the crisp modern visuals and audio.    … Expand

    Battlefield V is unfinished, broken, and lacks any and all vision. Mechanically it's a leap in the right direction and an improvement upon its predecessors. Gun game, animations, and the general feel and control are all visibly the best the franchise has seen, but that's about as far as the improvements stretch.

Mechanically it's a leap in the right direction and an improvement upon its predecessors. Gun game, animations, and the general feel and control are all visibly the best the franchise has seen, but that's about as far as the improvements stretch. Visually this game looks incredible on PC, and was designed from the ground up to utilize Nvidia's RTX technology. The problem is that when scaled to consoles, BFV is a clear visible step backwards compared to BF1. Lighting is almost broken, since it's either too bright or too dark, and everything has a sort of overexposure look to it that makes visibility a hassle and nothing short of rage inducing. Shadows are basically a wormhole into the dark abyss, and enemies sitting two feet away are seemingly invisible. Recent updates made this slightly better, but your mileage may very. Overall, the LODs are also noticeably less detailed on console compared to BF1, with muddy textures and steady pop in that both deceives and distracts you. You'll proceed to engage enemies, only to find that they were behind cover that hadn't rendered in yet upon getting closer. Vegetation also looks bad, not decent, not mediocre, literally terrible. Trees and bushes use mesh patterns, and a lot of the time trees won't render fully. Vegetation also takes a sort of blocky 2D appearance at range.

    The single player experience on BFV is a souless heap of **** with paper thin, shallow characters that aren't developed to any capacity to make you care about them, and they're accompanied by terrible, cringe worthy writing and typical war cliches. The gameplay doesn't get much better, since most missions revolve around you using one man army like stealth tactics around an open area, completing fetch or destroy objectives while taking out seemingly mindless AI.

    Multiplayer is just a giant meh-fest of lost potential. There's a great game somewhere lost in this experience, but its muddled by bugs, lack of content, and forgettable maps. Weapon and class balance is at the worst the franchise has seen, and that's not the result of a faster TTK. Hit detection, server performance, and overall netcode are also subpar, with consoles only featuring 30Hz servers, There's no custom servers, no RSP, and the customization is rather shallow, which leads into my next point below in the next paragraph. This is the only game I've played where I'll steadily deal 130-150 damage on an enemy, only for him to magically 1 frame me. People only have 100 health, but you can sponge 150+ damage into them and still get killed in a single frame by them. It's broken, and the recent "fixes" didn't fix anything. This game is just a mess.

    BFV has the worst progression system of any shooter I've played. The in-game economy is just God awful, and everything is an unnecessary grind. There's very little meaningful customization, and what is there is mostly aesthetic. Unlocking the same couple of skins for each weapon requires a constant grind of tedious assignments like "kill 10 enemies in 1 life while attacking objectives while shooting from the hip", along with a general side objective like "get 60 kills" or "deal 2000 damage". What does this unlock? Why, a muzzle, or a stock, and a muzzle or a stock in one color no less. To unlock full sets, you need to keep completing samey tedious assignments. To add insult to injury, the max level cap is just level 50. Compare that to BF1's base 100 or BF4's 140, and you get my point. The amount of company count, BFV's in-game currency you unlock is very minuscule as well, and unlocking items as small as a grip cost 1500cc on the low end, which is comical. No doubt this is so EA can inject microtransactions or collect on the premium sale of coin. Things like complete outfits, which STILL require tedious assignments to even unlock cost upwards of 15,000cc. You get my point, progression sucks.

    Combined Arms is a travesty and a huge embarrassment to DICE as a studio. It's go here and kill these people co-op on multiplayer maps with mindless bots that sponge bullets and magically 1 hit you. It's dull, mindless, and I don't understand why it was ever even delayed to begin with. Funnier yet, the cutscenes have sound bugs or appear blurry leading into the missions, which is just further lack of polish on a feature that was delayed 3 months; pitiful.

    Overall, this game is bad. It's agenda pushing single player experience is dull with no soul, the multiplayer is broken, unfinished, starving of content, bug filled, and lacking of any polish, and the co-op is literally just a huge "f@ck you" and cherry on top of this whole ****ty experience.

    Single shot riles are massively under powered. For example: You can shoot an enemy with a bolt action rifle 3 times in the chest and not kill them. I've had similar situations with head shots.

    Scopes light you up like a Christmas Tree. The moment you look down your sight, every person facing your direction can see you a mile away. Totally defeats the point of stealth.

    Grenades do nothing. You might as well be throwing pineapples.

    Lots of aspects of the game are still unfinished.

    The campaign is pretty short and divided into 4 parts, which aren't connected directly. Whether the format is good or not, the last 2 stories were kinda enjoyable, but it isn't anything spectacular. I personally didn't enjoy the mechanics in the game itself and found game-play pretty chaotic.

    Battlefield 5 'if you don't like don't buy it'

    You cant change the past but sure can lie about it for you're own politically motivated agenda thats Dice's new moto, if featuring woman so prominently on the front lines of WW2 when it was almost entirely made up of men is not enough, then rewriting history so that the bravery and actions of 2 commandos squads is completely cut out of an    Battlefield 5 'if you don't like don't buy it'

    You cant change the past but sure can lie about it for you're own politically motivated agenda thats Dice's new moto, if featuring woman so prominently on the front lines of WW2 when it was almost entirely made up of men is not enough, then rewriting history so that the bravery and actions of 2 commandos squads is completely cut out of an historic military operation so all their work is shown to be done by a single girl up against hundreds of German solders, this is just disgusting taking creative liberties is a common practice to help fit the story being told around a movie, game or a book, but the changes made would be like saying the Normandy landing where lead by woman which we all know is not true.

    Visually the game is as great as Battlefield 1 and plays very much the same except multiplayer has had many changes to create more of a general challenge to normal playstyles, while creating a more of a demand for squad diversity of classes to succeed.

    Don't buy this game so you don't fund companies who call their fan base 'uneducated' for pointing out the obvious lies, women didn't server on the front lines in anywhere near the number of men that were fighting and they certainly didn't let men or woman with prophetic arms fight and those handicapped people with missing arms certainly couldn't fire rifles effectively so they would be a liability, and DICE say its 'authentic'.    … Expand

    I have been a huge fan of the Battlefield series since the original Battlefield 1942. Despite the liberties taken with WW1, BF1 was hugely fun and had awesome atmosphere, tone, and look to it. Battlefield V is a game that has had a huge amount of work put into it, and it looks good, it's just been pushed in the wrong direction.

Despite the liberties taken with WW1, BF1 was hugely fun and had awesome atmosphere, tone, and look to it. Battlefield V is a game that has had a huge amount of work put into it, and it looks good, it's just been pushed in the wrong direction.

    The gameplay and graphics, while pretty objectively good in a vacuum, looks and feels extremely 'cartoony' because of certain choices with the gameplay mechanics, and visuals, the overly saturated colors. Little things in the visuals really bother me because you see them in front of you constantly. Their fictionalized military emblems they plaster everywhere is practically condescending. I need a stylized, completely made up ‘minimalist’ Union Jack inspired logo painted on all my guns when I play as the British? For what? So I don't forget which team I'm on? My character constantly 'looks at' "ammo" magazines in game that have yellow bullet silhouette graphics painted on them so I don't forget 'this is ammo'? This doesn't feel like Battlefield nor a game for gamers. This feels and looks almost like an oversaturated and condescending mobile phone game or Fortnight.

    The fortifications building ability is a neat idea but again it doesn't feel like Battlefield, it feels like I'm playing Minecraft.
    Also the spawn menu map is too 'messy' and 'busy' and I dislike the new color and design choices. BF1 pretty much nailed how a spawn menu should look, crisp and easy to make quick decisions.

    While I can understand them wanting to avoid the arguably overused classic battle scenarios of WWII such as Omaha Beach, they should have realized that the last time some of us played these was perhaps over a decade ago with some of the original COD, MOH, and Battlefield games. I would have very gladly welcomed the chance to experience these classic battles once again in Battlefield style with a kickass modern day game engine. A huge opportunity was wasted here.

    The shoehorning of 'politically correct' elements of the game was pushed way too far as evidenced by the over the top reveal trailer, and the developer's subsequent comments and disrespect for the core audience of the game. In addition to this they didn't even stand their ground and instead backpedaled somewhat on their aggressive PC agenda. This shows they listened to some of the criticism they received and made some adjustments, but not enough.

    EA/Dice also haven’t done enough to address cheating in their games. BF1 after being out for well over 2 years now, still suffers from rampant cheating (especially on servers in Asia). I don’t recall encountering and cheating while playing BFV, but I’ve read reports that the exact same sort of cheating that still goes on in BF1 is already happening in BFV. I don’t understand exactly how it all works, but there has to be a better way of dealing with it. Fairfight seems to help somewhat but it isn’t enough.
    Aside from the fact that EA/Dice’s could do more, I’m shocked at the stats I see on some servers, with messages sometimes stating something like 30 people have been banned in the last 24 hours, and that’s only the ones that are caught by Fairfight. This seems to be the biggest problem in Asia (where I play).

    I will give EA/Dice big kudos for the player and weapon customization they implemented into the game, it's along the lines of what I had always thought they were going to do in BF1 but never did. That's about the most positive thing I can say for the game. It's still not enough to save it though...

    It is with great sorrow that I sadly won't be purchasing this game after trying it out on Origin Premium Access. The game looks and feels like COD crossed with Fortnight with a little Minecraft mixed in, a far cry from what I expect a Battlefield game to be. I'll stick with Battlefield 1 for now. Disappointed.    … Expand

    I will be simple I like history of WW2 and I have studied all I can about it for 5 years, and don't take my name like I'm a child.

I don't hate women and I don't mind them being int the game but this makes me pissed how non accurate and shoved in this is, permanently in every tank there is a women for now cuz I just sold my game to someone and don't know about the update yet, this has come to the point I found Cod WW2 a game I disliked became better, I'm not a Nazi, yet they mention a swastika and don't show it, either don't mention it like CoD or show the accuracy.

    Now to the Gameplay I've been bothered by LOTS of bugs and some parts of gameplay are **** , Single player feels more free choice on one only but basically all are terrible, this is too much much of a generic large battle shooter.

    Even though I'm not in the the military or a WW2 veteran, this game is just disrespectful. WHEN YOU SEE A HISTORY BASED GAME LIKE WW1 OR WW2 YOU EXPECT A "GOOD" NOT PERFECT AMOUNT OF ACCURACY AND THIS BASICALLY IS NOT EVEN WW2. I feel like I'm playing a fanboys fantasy game filled with political bull****.    … Expand

    Soy seguidor de la saga desde el Battlefield Vietnam y cada vez va ha peor, la gente esta deseando una nueva versión de un Bad Company o algo parecido, y en vez de eso nos traen un juego mal diseñado, visualmente es una maravilla, pero todo lo demás falla, hasta el audio que era santo y seña de la casa falla, con bugs por todos sitios.

En cuanto a lo jugable, es un juego que aparentemente tendría que ser una obra maestra, la realidad es totalmente diferente, no es divertido, tiene fallos de diseño (especialmente en interface). Los mapas son mataderos en un 90% de los casos , no hay libertad de movimiento como había en los antiguos (desde el 4 para atrás se nota muchísimo). Se ha perdido el gusto de poder coger en cualquier momento un vehiculo, o intentar hacer una incursion en solitario o en pequeño grupo para recuperar una base... ahora solo se puede pasar por un cuello de botella en el que perder una vida tras otra.
    No recomiendo este juego en el momento actual a nade, por el simple motivo de que es un juego aburrido y frustrante.

    Лучший шутер в индустрии превращается в толерантное дно. "Историческая достоверность" просто поражает. Феменистки и Толерасты (по другому их никак не назовешь) умудряются лезть не только в индустрию, но теперь еще и в историю. Скоро Сталин станет мулатом, а женщина возвысит флаг СССР над Рейхстагом.

Феменистки и Толерасты (по другому их никак не назовешь) умудряются лезть не только в индустрию, но теперь еще и в историю. Скоро Сталин станет мулатом, а женщина возвысит флаг СССР над Рейхстагом. Потрясающе. Если бы не эти толерантно-феменистические движения, игра получилась бы более достоверной, как в случае с BF1. Но в итоге мы видим женщин с протезами и женские крики на поле боя.

    Но помимо ебанутых борцов за толерантность и равенство, в хуевой игре надо винить EA, которых заворожила сладкая, полная свободы жизнь в богатстве, полученных на агрессивной монополизации. Они слушают не комьюнити, а финансовых аналитиков и инвесторов. И ограничивают время на разработку. BF1 делали более 3 лет, и техническая его составляющая получилась идеальной (как минимум в рамках серии BF). Но в случае с BFV, игру делали меньше 2 лет, в спешке и производственном аде. Из-за этого мы видим бесконечные матчи, нерабочие окна выбора оружия, бесчисленные проблемы с коллизией и многое, многое другое.

    Вместе все эти факторы и создали ту BFV, которую мы лицезреем. Но если бы не они, игра бы получилась отличной — хотя бы из-за стрельбы и физики оружия. Попробуйте найти хотя бы одного человека, который сказал бы, что стрельба в BFV плохая. Это вам не CoD с ее пластмассовой стрельбой.

    Но у нас есть, что есть. Но все же лично я уверен, что через год-два игру приведут в нормальное состояние, как в случае с BF4, которая спустя несколько лет после выхода свободно выдохнула, ведь ее больше не беспокоили бесчисленные технические проблемы. Так что, нам остается лишь ждать — либо исправления BF, либо появления на рынке конкурента, ибо таковых сейчас нет. И да, Call Of Duty проигрывает BF практически по всем параметрам.    … Expand

    A mediocre attempt to appease EA's shareholders with BF1 sales figures by injecting unnecessary modern social commentary into a buggy, unbalanced, and uninspired historical shooter.

    It’s far from being ideal but all the glitches and shortcomings don’t ruin the overall fun of Battlefield V’s multiplayer experience. Although the single player portion of the game is not bad at all, I would have been disappointed if I bought the game just for it. [13/2018, p.56]

    In Battlefield V we got back to WW2, but with refined gunplay and death system which works great. There are also little problems such as low number of maps and stability issues, that are taking the fun away, but nothing that can't be fixed.

    A great World War II shooter that will grow and improve. Do not buy the game because of its singleplayer, but if you consider the campaign a bonus to the multiplayer, you will be satisfied. [Issue#291]
