    I've put lot of hours into BF4 and BF1 and I have to say BF V's multiplayer is worth the money, especially if you consider that all the future content will be for free.

In Conquest its a different story because the opponent team can reuse it. :) The maps are great, although in my opinion theI've put lot of hours into BF4 and BF1 and I have to say BF V's multiplayer is worth the money, especially if you consider that all the future content will be for free. I love the fortification system, I think it gives you a lot of advantage in Grand Operations. In Conquest its a different story because the opponent team can reuse it. :) The maps are great, although in my opinion the Hamada map is a little bit too big for 64 players. Progression system, attrition system and also weapon customization are great. I love the change that there is no spotting, so now the gameplay is more strategic than in BF1 and BF4. You really have to think twice which way to go and always use some cover. Otherwise you don't have much chance.
    Single player mode I only tried for 10-15 minutes, but I realized its not for me at all, but I didn't buy the game for that so I don't really care about it.    … Expand

    No commander mode... Dowódca odróżniał i dawał unikatowe uczucie w rozgrywce. Z miłą chęcią pomagałem sojusznikom w BF2 ogarniać się na mapie UAV, skanami, artylerią czy skanem. Teraz tego brak, można co najwyżej obciągnąć laskę brudasowi jako squad leader...

    If you want to play the Andromeda equivalent of battlefield, this is the game for you. After 4 the series goes down in quality with each installment . A disappointment. If the next game won't go back to the basics, this is the end of the Battlefield series.

Штурм почему то убрали. Понравилась специализация ствола, по типу прокачи ствола можно выбрать с каким стилем играть, увеличить скорострельность или понизить отдачу и т.п. Так же и с техникой. Карты отстойные, из ванильных карт только 3 нормальные. Оптимизация ужасная, с моим железом каким-то образом игра то лагает, то не лагает. Одиночку не стал проходить, она не особо интересная.

    EA wants money, not making games.
    Game has good graphics.
    the sound is worse relative to the BF 1 ( no dolby atmos)

Come the release of Operation Underground and the first two Pacific maps and Fliegel AA rocket, I thought...finally they're starting to nail Map design, game flow, player visibility and improve balance between vehicles/infantry(which is what the majority of players play as most of the game). So, I though finally they know what they're doing and heading to a good direction. How wrong I was.....barely a moth later they hit the game with a complete core mechanics re-design and destroying the only thing that they used even during their launch, when they paid the 'Game Changers' to constantly hammer the talking point of ''ignore the game's flaws and PR because the gun-play is the best ever!'. So now over a year later, the game is back to effectively Alpha stage where they're reworking and then spend another year at least creating a new balance. The bulk of players playing infantry are just cheap target practice for vehicles, which in most servers seem to have a ''gentlemen's agreement'' to ignore each other and just farm infantry with incendiary bombs and other BS. Topping that off, unless you're a hardcore vehicle player to grind their upgrades, you have no chance using one. Of course what's worse is that the game balance is really geared towards vehicles being the real counter to other vehicles. Now apart from BF1 I never truly enjoyed using vehicles in any of the titles, however in BF3/4/1 I absolutely loved cracking them open like tin cans and was one of the most satisfying things in game. In BF5 it's just annoying and frustrating with AT weapons feeling like complete jokes, from the slow mo preparations to fire them, reload, aim down sight(actually not down sight, just a slight zoom in while the weapon obstructs visibility), to the sounds and trajectory...and my god the piss poor effect on vehicles. Point is really, Dice are still messing about with this half finished buggy title like it's in pre-alpha stage where they're trying to work out basic game balance and core mechanics that will decide what the experience will feel like as a whole. In conclusion, don't bother with it unless you want to play through an ever changing, inconsistent buggy game by a studio that clearly has no real vision for this title and runs around like headless chickens changing stuff on a dime in the hopes of a miracle golden egg landing on their lap. And no matter what they boast all the time, they have no interest in player opinions and simply throw in changes in the hope it will be the answer to more sales completely disregarding those who already spend money on it. I mean...who the hell ruins their main selling point and only generally accepted good feature of their title? It's a really badly run studio like Bioware so you can't ever realistically expect it to do this well. As a whole it's not the studio it used to be with a collection of some clearly incompetent leaders at the helm. If you still have hope, then it's just a delusional wishful thinking not based on the reality they've shown… Expand

    Gun play is awful, most weapons in the game feels the same, behave in same manner - be it machine gun or machine pistol. Except semi-auto/bolt-action stuff they all do no damage past 30 meters, yet accurate as laser beams and have almost to no recoil. What the hell, DICE? And my personal favorite is the scopes, 3x looks ok and not out of place, but come on, collimator sights and holo?    .

    Balance is completely busted, aircraft is dominating everything and you do not even need a shred of skill to kill someone with it, game now spot targets for you to bomb, very convenient, and the only reliable way to shoot it down is another plane.
    Same goes with tanks, the only way to kill them is explosive charges or another tank, since grenade launchers are useless. You can also try stationary defence guns to take vehicles out, but they will probably shoot you first.
    Maps were never a strong side of battlefield games for me, though there is a handful of good maps in each game, but i don't like any in this game at all, i play only large game modes and it seems maps were designed with only conquest mode in mind, they are not balanced in other modes at all. They look really great, but terrible to play on.
    I have nothing to say about sound in this game, it's great, but not it's enough to make this game good.
    We have incompetent developers who do not know what are they doing and which auditory their managers are targeting with their game, combine that with bugs which they are slow or unlikely to fix, and with each update introducing more of them, sometimes experience breaking (like you can't unlock anything and get credits from ranking up), how can anyone like that mess? DICE is steadily declining and quality of their games too. I can't rate it high, this is sub-par quality product, even after a year since release.    … Expand

    Campaign/War storys:
    Very disappointing. This is more like a bad COD game then a Battlefield game. The two first warstorys has no battlefield at all. Just you, completely alone against hundreds of soilders, planes and tanks. Destroy a radarstation, then another radarstation, then a truck.... Very easy because the enemy always seems to store bombs right by the thing you sopose to blow up

I try to enjoy it for a long time but that enjoyment is pretty rare. there so many racist retards and censor in chat is **** what is this elementary school? visibility is **** so you dont see the enemies half the time and they removed 3d spotting so we can work as squad but that failed cuz no sniper on my squad ever spots enemies.

    this game is unplayable. literally. enemy always kill you with 1 shot but you will ned atleast 3 to kill them and the lag in the servers makes the whole game literally unplayable. the other problem is the hacker.
    they shoot you from 300 meter with an smg and you die from 1 shot and you need atleast 3 shot to kill him. UNPLAYABLE: WORST GAME I EVER PLAYED.

    Worst Battlefield game of the franchise in my opinion. Terrible gunplay, no gun customization, seeing the enemy is next to impossible sometimes, causing you to die without even knowing where the enemy was most of the time.
    This isn't even taking into account the abundance of hackers in the game and they seemingly never get banned.

    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.
