Gone are the days of Battlefield, COD, and MOH giving a damn about historically accurate battles. The neutered mechanics really made matters worse. You can tell they just want to milk the fans for everything they can, releasing a horribly broken game for a full game price. What really REALLY irritates the hell outta me is Meta critic giving a voice to "GAMES JOURNALISTS" that admit the game is buggy months after release still giving it 8/10. Nothing about this game is 8/10. The mechanics are bad, it's broken and not improving, it's maps are big and empty with 15 sec re-spawn times on supposedly fast paced multiplayer, even the menus are trash and overly complicated. If it had at least 1 true story, and stopped misrepresenting EVEN THE GOOD GUYS as racist, sexist, thugs who did nothing but take all the credit, I would be willing to recommend a rental of this game..... If you buy this as a gift, give it to someone you hate. Other wise, stay far far away from this trash. Worst 3 hours of my year.… Expand

    I'm amazed at how bad this game is. The gameplay is awful. The map layout is awful. The ray tracing? meh.

    I really enjoyed Bad company 2, and Battlefield 4 wasn't too bad either. But this took the same road as Battlefield 1, open maps where every time you turn around you are being hit from a different location. It's just a giant cluster f***.

The game is poorly populated, as is and with no anti-cheat and no private servers with 3rd party anti-cheat plugins, or hard working community admins to keep it clean this game is nowhere near as good as it could have been.

    If you listed 10 "Iconic WW2 things" about 3 of those would be in this multi-million dollar WW2 game. They wanted to "focus on the untold stories of ww2" and put a girl with a robot arm on the box cover. I've put about 80 hours into BF5 and I lost count of the hackers, and I mean legitimate hackers, people with 80+ kills and 0-2 deaths. EA doesn't care about PC at all.

Their creative vision has been reduced to nothing but adding more skins and weapons, with no interest in adding new maps. The game has released with 8 maps. Only 8 maps. And there's no news of adding anything new, initiative, or interesting. Whatever love that came with this game died at the door, and their only interest is to drag whatever money they can out of your wallet.

    The lag in this game is something else. And when I say lag, I mean the lag compensation from the game. If you're in cover? Guess what, you're out in the open on the enemy's screen, they will see you, and they will kill you.

    There's a setting that changes the foliage setting, which affects the render distance of said foliage. In a competitive game. In a shooter. With some maps that have up to 50% of nothing but corn fields. What are they thinking, truly?

    Some updates will reset your weapon loadouts. Some updates will introduce new bugs. But either way, enjoy the 40GB+ download. But hey, at least they managed to set up their in-game store correctly.

    Please, please take my advice. If you wish to waste your money, please spend it anywhere else than here. Anywhere else. Take someone out for a date. Throw the money into a toilet. I don't care. But even that will give you more satisfaction than playing this grindfest, sorry excuse of a product. Even buying Souljaboy's gaming console would be a better investment.    … Expand

    Even after the PR disaster reveal trailer that EA and DICE released to introduce the world to Battlefield V, I still defended the game with a hopeful optimism that this will be an amazing continuation of the narrative style they established in Battlefield 1.

    The game had a semi-stable release (compared to BF4 PC) and was actually very fun despite the game-breaking bugs that plague the experience. Patch after patch DICE releases "new content" and "bug fixes" (which essentially re-break the game to a state worse than before) through their live service, Tides of War. This is where I see the main issue is. On paper, I can see how Tides of War can be a very immersive experience; DICE wants to bring the players along a narrative journey throughout World War II as they release new maps and content to encapsulate the attention of players through the life cycle of the game. However, the execution of this live service system has been THE WORST I have ever seen from a Triple A Developer/Publisher (Not a surprise, its EA).

    At launch, there were eight maps with SIX game modes (3 of which are unpopular with the PC community) which resulted in a severe content drought and a loss of interest from many players. The game being in an almost pre-Alpha state did not help with its publicity either. Game-breaking bugs, rampant hacking, and the Deluxe Edition SCAM has tarnished the once highly acclaimed Battlefield franchise. There is a dire lack of communication and clarity from DICE to the community which becomes extremely frustrating when players want to know what they are promised in the Tides of War service after being extorted 60 dollars for a far-from-finished product. The most recent patch, as of the writing of this review, is Chapter 2: Lightning Strike which introduces many of the game-breaking bug fixes and "new content" (no new maps until March???). Once again, the bug fixes, while some did work to improve the experience, actually broke the game even more than before. This is absolutely ridiculous and SHAMEFUL that a Triple A company such as DICE, with some of the most prestigious developers of the industry, would dare release a product in such a dismal state. The content that players expected at the release of a new Chapter have either been pushed back or have a big fat SOON slapped onto it. ie Rush, Greece Campaign, Tank-Busting Vehicles, Combined Arms, Firestorm. Everything is just SOON and when the products come out they are either broken or completely below expectations.

    I genuinely wanted to like this game and support it in its entirety, but seeing the toxic practices of EA and the downward slope of the Battlefield franchise is extremely disheartening. The Battlefield V memes making fun of this game have been more well made and thought out than this dumpster fire. The hopeful optimism I had from the first time I have heard of Battlefield V is long gone and now I just dread where the rest of this game's life cycle as well as the future of Battlefield games are going. Aside from the amazing sound design and the slightly improved graphics compared to Battlefield 1, Battlefield V ultimately is a husk of what previous games in the franchise were. The game is simply unfinished, rushed, and obviously marketed to be a money-grab for those foolish enough to fall for their ploy. I completely regret my decision to purchase and support this game and I am ashamed to call myself a Battlefield fan. There is a lot of potential in this game that is overshadowed by greed and an effortless production for one of their main franchises.I don't know if EA will change their vile practices or better, if DICE will escape their grasp, but I really hope that the same mistakes they made in Battlefield V will not be reflected in future Battlefield games.    … Expand

Since WWII titles are so saturated, a franchise like Battlefield should offer players some sense of nostalgia, and BFV provides very little. Despite having purchased the game at launch, i'm increasingly uninterested in playing it, and find that the "updates" offer nothing exciting.

    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.
