What do you guys think of the Plus system?

[@mason9483]

I quite like it

[@ismailrhedhbane4811]

its fine if its only a couple kinds of different attachments, 2-3 different is fine but not too much, we also don't know how many attachments we will have so 2-3 may be very few

I think it will not play a big part in the game. So i don't really care.

[@KetchupPankaka]

Looks cool so far

[@jacksonhikes1344]

I think it’s great. It’s adds adaptability to firefights and different scenarios, what if you get pinned by a sniper, what if your going into a cqb situation? This can also keep people from camping on the map and will keep a good flow going around the map. 👍🏻

The match in the trailer looks like a 650 ticket game mode, this seems a little short for 128 players. I hope Dice allow an increase to 1000+ points that allow longer matches to happen. Some of my favorite moments in BF has been having a temporary rivalry with another squad, this happens in longer games more consistently. I also noticed four names listed near the minimap, which I think means small 4 man squads. I was hoping for an 8 man squad. The game looks amazing and I cannot wait to play.

[@Always-Decent]

[@MY-us1ip]

I think 6 man squads could be the sweet spot. Also in terms of playing with friends, the max on occasion that I play with friends is 6 players in total. 8 man squad might be a bit hectic, but would work great if you could split the squad in two fire teams of 4 man squads - each with a different color, one blue, other green, rest of the players in team yellow for instance.

I like it. Why is changing your magazine type controversial, since they use the same fittings? Arguably, changing a foregrip can be made to be more modular in reality, so I don't see why it being done quickly isn't viable 21 years from now. I think the lack of animation is merely down to how many hours it would take to make unique animations for each attachment and gun from the first-person perspective and the perspective from other players. Even simple reload animations take a long time to make.

I much preferred when Battlefield had a more 'grounded' atmosphere, like in BF3/4 and even BF1 to an extent. Seems like they're going way more into a game-y, self-aware feel here. Perhaps it's not a big deal for most people but for me the balance between realistic and 'arcady' was one of the big things that made me prefer Battlefield over Call of Duty, as well as other competing FPS titles. Actually one of the main reasons I appreciated the BF3 and BF4 single player campaigns was that they presented context for what multiplayer battles were about. You had an actual perspective on the reality of the conflict you were taking part in in the multiplayer (Battlefield 1 didn't really need that as it had irl history serving that purpose already). So I will miss singleplayer, actually.

The assault rifle shown in the player's hands when a tank is called in looks like it is the MCX Spear, SIG's NGSW rifle that was competing to be the new main rifle of the US Army and that passed the selection. We also see this rifle in the reveal trailer, it's great that they're taking into account weapons that are just being issued recently for soldiers in the near future

@@germ_tb3_gm088 Maybe cloaking tech to hide from tanks would be nice.

I think the plus system will be a good addition and here’s why. On maps as large and varied as advertised, the engagement distances and scenarios you fight at, are likely going to change dramatically. You’d be pretty mad if u need to contest a CQB situation, survive and now have to fight long range with a sight that doesn’t even let you see more than 50 metres. Likewise with ammo type. U might be running a buckshot shotgun but now you might be much better off with slug rounds... It’s designed to make you more adaptable to the situation and not being frustrated or feeling useless because of your loadout choice for 1 single gun fight.

No. It's a rework of the 4 class system to make the game less restrictive based on which class you play as. So each specialist has a certain skill exclusive to them to help with certain roles, but can perform as any other soldier can and use any weapon. Cosmetics can be seen in the trailer with the same specialist wearing different apparel. So while they have a background, they aren't like the same 10 people running around everywhere, but rather identifiable characters to help players know what kind of soldier they're fighting with. I imagine as time goes on, more specialists will emerge with more skills. (Right now there's that medic chick who can revive allies to full health and heal from a distance. Maybe in the future they introduce a medic that can quickly zap allies back to life from a distance but only to 75% health and the zap gun stuns enemy players... Just a thought).
