I ended my BF4 career with a 2.27 K/D. That's all I can remember. I'm not sure I remember my password for the stats pages.
Best comp tourney finish my Clan ever had was Runner-up. It was in a tourney with the Rush game mode. I think the best finish for Team Deathmatch was like 3 or 4, and Domination was about the same.
I miss those days. But then again, I quit because I got old.

So, I hate Battlefield V, or at least what they have to show in the beta.
The game looks phenomenal, but tanks control really weird, guns feel bad and have way too much recoil, and you barely carry any ammo, which is the stupidest change.
The revive thing when you get killed is plain stupid and I think the only reason they nerfed your self healing ability was to make the medic feel less useless since 50% of what the class did was basically given to everyone.
The spawn camera defaulting to a 3rd person view of your squadmates is annoying, as it gives you no indication of how the map is developing as the game progresses. You don't have any idea what objective layouts look like while in the spawn screen, and there doesn't seem to be an option to default to the map overview in the options.
Building fortifications seem to have been basically introduced just because of their stupid battle royale mode they're adding, and feel like a half-assed attempt to try to be different than CoD's battle royale mode.
I know they want to emphasize squad gameplay, but not everyone plays this game with other people. Relying on randoms is something that a game should never force you to do for something as important as ammunition for your gun or health for your character.
If the game keeps these major changes, as I know it will, I will not be buying it. It's unfortunate that they are basically re-branding Battlefield as some kind of shitty Fortnite clone with realistic graphics.

If the game keeps these major changes, as I know it will, I will not be buying it. It's unfortunate that they are basically re-branding Battlefield as some kind of shitty Fortnite clone with realistic graphics. I on the other hand am enjoying it, for me personally, Battlefield for a long time has had too many hand holding situations, got shot by a sniper? hide and regain full health, lost a gunfight? no matter, run and hide and get that health back. I also am enjoying the more involved reviving system, rather than just a super medic running around stabbing a syringe in to everyone raising an army of the undead in mere seconds, I'm glad you can't do that, since the medic class in my honest opinion was always far too overpowered with that regard. And unfortunately for that, Battlefield has always been about teamplay, not lone wolfing, that's why I'm enjoying it a lot more, since I have to think with my team in mind before I do anything major, rather than Rambo cleaving through the team with no regard. The attrition system is a good addition, you need to think more proactively rather than diving head first in to combat and gather supplies. Tanks to me are a mixed bag, the tanks aiming is strange and awkward, and I'm getting eternally frustrated when the smallest frag grenade can blow my tracks off and cut my mobility in half Also, the fortification system I have found, opens up a lot of new opportunity and defensive positions, especially in operations for the defending German team, gives them more cover and when it gets blown up, it's not game over and you can't use that spot again, you can just rebuild And this game is far from being a Fortnite clone, just because it has a battle royale mode, and the ability to build structures and positions doesn't mean it's a clone of a massively popular game, it's like saying that 7 Days is a Minecraft clone because you can build houses

I'm glad you're enjoying it, unfortunately it looks like BFV just won't be a game for me. I was just hoping for them to revert some of the changes they made for BF1 regarding how weapon attachments work and basically make BF4 but set in WW2.
It's not a particularly major loss for me given that their pre-order numbers are at an all time low and sales will probably suffer as a result, which will just mean more people stay for me to kill in BF4 and BF1.
I'll look to see what they change going to release, but I'm not hopeful at this point that they can woo me into a purchase.

BFV. Im still shit at twitch games. But this is a whole new barrel of laughs. Build shit. Blow shit up. Smoke the bastards out (and its dense smoke). Slaughter them with the Sten. Im much more impressed with this than BF1 which got stale quite quickly.

Playing it a bit more, I think my biggest issues remain the ammo capacity of your character, and the revive mechanic. The ammo issue is self explanatory, but it's just not enough for Conquest. They should scale the amount of ammo you carry depending on the mode you're playing.
I'm okay with them nerfing revive, but not allowing you to just immediately skip the timer on it is annoying, as your spawn timer doesn't start until after you truly die. This makes the spawn timer somewhere around 12 seconds every time you die, and that's if you don't want to get revived.
I'm more warm to it than I was before, and I feel like my initial hate was due to it being so different from previous Battlefields.
They really nerfed your soldier in an attempt to force squad play, and that's quite a shock when you feel like you have a much smaller affect on the battle than you previously did in BF. Vehicles are well and truly scary now because they didn't get nerfed as bad as the individual soldiers did, and feel like a real force to be reckoned with. That's something I'm okay with, as they felt almost worse than foot soldiers in BF1.
Sorry to spam quote you on this, it's just nice to vent sometimes.

Don't worry about "spamming" me, Battlefield is my favourite series and I always love to have chats about it in general And you weren't alone, at first I hated the game, or at least a lot of opposition, but I found it fitted with my playstyle I find the vehicles hit or miss, the only two planes that are actually worth a damn is the British Blenheim and the German 109 G-2, tanks are a mixed bag I mean the Panzer IV and Valentine are nice and all, but the Churchill VII and Tiger I are so much better. I do hate how easy it is for a tank to have it's tracks damaged, because you end up having this weird ice skating effect and it's a pain to escape They need to take BF1's idea and increase player movement speed, I feel people move a bit too slow atm, it doesn't fit with the new fast TTK, along with the fact like you mentioned, the long time to respawn, in a game with a fast TTK that's pretty bad Slow TTK = Slow Respawn, Fast TTK = Fast Respawn, seem DICE forgot that

You're right about the Tiger I and Churchill VII just completely outclassing the Valentine and Panzer IV, why would you ever pick the weaker variant when it does the exact same thing? I guess if you get upgrades like the autoloader for the Valentine it might make it a worthwhile alternative. Also, what's the point of the Sturmtiger? It doesn't seem to do any more damage than the Tiger I's cannon against infantry. I'm absolutely loving how much they nerfed dynamite/C4 against vehicles. The fact that some guy can't yolo charge you, throw 2 sticks and kill himself and your tank at the same time is really nice. The controls being relative to where your camera is pointing, and not the hull of the tank, is the biggest issue with tanks right now IMO. I have basically no experience in planes, and have only flown twice. Once I crashed because I tried making a loop too low, the other I was shot down by somebody who's way too good in planes. The ammo and health management isn't nearly as much of an issue as I felt it was originally. Ammo management can be annoying, but at least in the beta people seem to actually be playing their intended rolls, and ammo packs are flying everywhere. The health I found was a non-issue, especially since you can carry a health pack and the boxes are everywhere. I didn't realize before, but the medic can revive anyone, and they do it more than twice as fast, while other classes can only revive squad members. Not being able to open your supply drops, or whatever they are called, while in battle is dumb. Every time you want to check if you got a new attachment you have to completely leave the server. Player movement speed hasn't been much of an issue for me, but the beta maps are relatively small, so maybe I've just not noticed it. So after a more thorough experience, it went from a 2/10 to about a 7/10 due to some issues that are hopefully resolved before release.

I guess I'm really picky about games because there's been so many I get downloaded and just a minute or two in it, I'm like nope.

I've found games I think I like, but they just throw you in with everything shooting and bombing you. It's frustrating.

Battlefield V will have a training ground for you to test your skills in planes, ground vehicles and shooting skills Along with some videos done by Battlefield youtubers in game that will give you tutorials on how to play the kits and how to unlock stuff

From what I've seen on that game, I'd be interested in buying it, but at the same time, I'm sure I'd need all the tutorials available.

I won't be getting BF5 until it's cheaper though, I only really liked the modern ones. Fallout 76 will take a lot of my time too so I won't have any left for other games.

I've bought games for my husband that were $50-60, but I wouldn't pay that much for a game for myself.

I didn't pay attention to the intro on Battlefield the other day when I played it the first time so when my first character died, I thought it was over. I played it some more today and got through that first part of the campaign. Made me cry with the rest of the intro. I started on another mission driving a tank and I thought that was pretty interesting--though I may have been shooting at an allied tank. Still not sure on that. Lol. I'm really liking this one so far. Good story and graphics. Though I did feel bad driving over soldiers with my tank. Seeing the way soldiers are just out there in the middle of it all--getting flamed and possibly even ran over by their own tanks--gives me a greater appreciation of what people go through in war.
