    After playing the game some 20 or so hours, I actually like it. The game play is nice. But I'm amazed at the perf issues (huge fps drops here and there). Like how can it be? It is not like the hardware came as a surprise. I play with ps 4 pro on full HD, should be able to run without these issues.

    edit 17/12/2018 :
    Even after the few updates and contents ... There isn't enough content to play it till the Battle royal comes out for BFV. It's better that you buy it at a discounted price or at least till the new maps and modes comes out.

    The reason why I don"t give it a low rating is because there are worse games out there. And i know why the fanboys are getting upset for the BF franchise.
    EA and DICE gambled and LOST but it does't mean it is a BAD game.    … Expand

    Surprised this has such ridiculously low user scores, as in my opinion it has the best gunplay in the series. Really enjoy all aspects of BF5's multiplayer I've sunk dozens of hours across all maps, and I really think the game is in a great state now with balanced guns and a detailed and interesting variety of locations. However do not even try playing the campaign, it sucks dick.

    Final Verdict: 7.4 (Rounded down to a 7)

    To start off, I was one of the people who didn't like DICE's depiction of WW2 and was against the game from the start. The closed alpha was quite good, but the beta was an outright disaster. That said, I can confidently say that this year's installment has the best gameplay since BF3. If you want a game with an in-depth progressions system that you can sink hours into with its constant genre-defining epic moments for hours on end, this is the game for you. Cosmetics are surprisingly good. All characters you can choose are faction specific, meaning no black woman nazis, restricting the player to choose from a variety of men and women from a select character pool. For those concerned about historical accuracy, it is barely noticeable aside from the uncomfortable and loud women screaming on the battlefield. The content is quite light at launch. While there is a lot of variety in the content itself, the quantity is lacking. Features such as dragging downed friendlies, vehicle customization, and the Last Tiger war story are lacking from the game. The game is also very buggy. I'd say there aren't many 'game breaking' bugs (although I've encountered an infinite revive state glitch where I couldn't respawn), as most of the bugs are ignorable at best. The story is alright. 2 of the 3 war stories are quite decent, and one is just downright garbage. The AI is piss poor, and there is no variety in gameplay other than the typical one man army style gameplay. Performance isn't up to standard right now, as hectic moments can get quite laggy especially if you don't have a good CPU. So, should you buy the game? Not yet. Either wait till it's on sale or until more content comes out. I also recommend you try out the game by buying one month of EA Access. I've had a blast with the game so far, and I look forward to Tides of War.    … Expand

    The game's campaign is lackluster and boring. The multiplayer experience is very fun but some of the map design for certain maps make those maps boring and not fun to play. There are a few maps that I like to play and always com pack to. I feel like the women representation doesn't belong in the game. There are a lot of glitches.

Es un DLC que me hizo pensar lo que tuvieron que vivir los japoneses y estadounidenses en esa época. Pero retomando los otros mapas uno se da cuenta que son muuuy flojos on online flojo que no se compara con los de sus antecesores, un online repetitivo que podría ser compensado con un aumento de slots en los jugadores.

That’s not to say BFV is a bad game because it’s not, but it lacks the balance, character, and energy of BF1. The last entry really made most guns a viable option in the game, while this game really eliminates 75% of the available guns because some are just overwhelmingly better in every way. Somehow they have also made support, one of the four classes in the game, almost entirely useless and not worth the time. The balancing in this game is far off the marks, even years later in 2022.

    It has a lot of odd game design decisions that made it lose the Battlefield personality to the point where it feels like it’s trying to be other games way too much. The customization is a cool idea, but horribly executed. Every gun can be customized with some ridiculous scope including red dot sights, which completely take away any purpose from the iron sights. But when you have a female soldier with a prosthetic arm, blue face paint, and some really whacky clothing holding a gun that has zero recoil due to poor balancing along with a red dot sight decades before they were invented, it sort of loses its charm and begins to feel like Call of Duty. I know the game is not selling itself as a historically accurate game, but I don’t see the point of trying to make it seem like a WWII game.

    With that being said it’s not a bad game, it’s just an average Battlefield game. There is some fun to be had.

    It does shine in other areas. The level design is very good and really place you into some stunning environments. The destruction physics are fantastic and greatly improved from the last game. Some of the new modes are pretty entertaining. It does some things right. All in all, you can have some fun with the game, but it’s a very disappointing entry in the franchise. Too often it feels like Call of Duty mixed with Battlefield game modes, instead of just using what the franchise already does well and did exceptionally well just prior in Battlefield 1.    … Expand

    In many ways, Battlefield V feels like a big step backwards for the franchise. The campaign is boring and frustrating, multiplayer is unbalanced, and bugs keep popping up in every mode to ruin the experience. The fortification system is a good shakeup, but the good it brings is tempered by the cumbersome and murky Grand Operations. With some patches, balance changes and bug squashing, BFV could be a fantastic game, but at the moment, this soldier needs to go back to basic training.
