Great video! My thoughts: - Animations are fine if done sparingly. Long animations for revives and entering/leaving vehicles are quite annoying because they get in the way of the gameplay flow and leave the player vulnerable doing common actions. However, animations for things like buddy reviving, vaulting, rolling after a fall, etc. are a few good instances where a longer animation can be fine because those actions are less common and a tactical choice. - Agree exactly with you on the ideal duration of squad revives (longer) and medic revives (short). Buddy reviving is great for non-medic friends! - Loved the removal of spotting (except with specialized gadgets), and retaining the feature from BF1 of not appearing on mini-map for shooting. - Gunplay was tighter than BF1 but still not as satisfying as BF3/4 or CoD:MW 2019 in many ways. Despite the understandable lack of customization (WW2 game) the guns didn't always feel powerful, especially at longer ranges (completely unrealistic damage drop off).

Thank you Westie for this video. BF V is a very good game in terms of the quality of the gunplay, movement mechanics, gameplay features like fortification, graphics and sound. It lacks content, for sure and doesn't have the artistic quality of previous battlefields but most of the gamers are exaggerating with that level of bad critisism for the game. Yes it's extremely far from being a proper WW2 game, the direction has been completely out of the line but gameplaywise is far superior to any other FPS out there. If it had the team balancer, the map voting system and assignments from BF 1 and a proper anticheat mechanism, it would be brilliant.

How did this game even fail?? There is so much material to gather from WW2. They could of started the game out with the iconic settings, things everyone knows about and loves. Stalingrad, Dday, bastogne, kursk and battle for france and britain. The DLC could be the ''untold stories of WW2'' that they wanted to tell. The dlc could of been Africa, the Pacific, scandinavia and greece, maybe even china vs japan?? Character customization should of been things like, do you want to wear a helmet or no? Does your helmet have a net over it? Does the net contain a magazine, or maybe a ration? No need to go overboard with customization in a WW2 game. Such an easy concept, incompetence ruined this game.

[@warriorwolf7976]

I agree with a lot of things on this list, though when it comes to gunplay I think we should have a greater array of attachments, that way in certain situations with a certain gun, you can control a firefight

[@PoisoningShadow671]

I dunno how people found the gunplay of BF1/BF5 appealing outside of semi-auto/bolt action rifles, It's probably just me but I always felt the firing animations and recoil was dumbed down so the weapons felt more like the dude was going pew pew and simulating recoil instead of BF4 where the guns actually felt like they kicked everytime you shoot.

[@Xiox321]

It only makes sense depending on the setting. If it's modern/futuristic then they can go crazy with attachments, if it's historical, then it's pretty limited.

[@jpegwithallthecrust2649]

I'd love a game with BFV's in-game gunplay but BF4 or MW2019's customization.

[@mr.fahrenheit6054]

I had played BF : BC to BFV and from my observation BFV has almost endless list of problems, but it's strong points were gunplay & player movement, fortification, crouch sprinting, Iwo Jima map in Breakthrough (75% scaling from original place & possibly the best Breakthrough map in BF history) and reinforcements.

[@foxtrotmetal01]

It did something right , it became a prime example of what NOT to do for future dev generations and marketing teams. Other than that it was fail after fail.

Hopefully it taught devs not to take a dump on their fans head and expect their product to thrive.

[@amigobatata9014]

The vehicles of this game were in fact a upgrade from BF1, that was alrealdy a upgrade from BF4. That was one of the best parts, this atention they gave, different vehicles fort different factions, and not just a re-skin with the same gameplay. And about the weapons, i like they in this way, at least the bullets landed and dont disapeared mid air XD This "Counter Strike" weapons style is cool, you need to know how to play with it.

Yeah factions take a long time to make. Characters, voices/dialogue, weapons, vehicles, tanks, then finally maps. You're more likely to get US vs Germany then to get Soviets. And that would still be a lazy addition considering US uniforms are different then the ones in Pacific theater.

What turned me off of 1 and 5, tho I love 1 is weapon customization. BF3 and 4 bad such great weapon customization, tho I understand why, given the setting of 1 and 5, I still miss it. I think BF6 needs to go modern and have a similar gunsmith like CoD has.

[@wh8787]

My main feeling with BF5 is mostly frustration. I've been playing it less and less, and I think one of the main reasons is the lack of a team auto balance. Being put onto teams who are losing and outnumbered over and over is demoralising but it seems like it's a pretty common experience, and an unnecessary one given that this could have just implemented an auto balance feature.

[@user-jz2wk1pd2n]

Yeah, they warned me in advance not to buy this ridiculous peace of thrash, thanks for that. And hopefully the people reponsible for the damage done to my favourite franchise get what they deserve :)

[@Joepeoplesvii]

If the Battle Royale were free to play it would have revolutionized the genre. Destroyable buildings and top teir graphics with the rest of the positives of BFV were awesome.

Gunplay and Fortifications. That is it. The fortifications was so underwhelming. I expected way more out of that sandbox element.

[@sovietsquirrel1315]

Ik I wish they let use a shovel in your toolbox or something and dig a foxhole wherever you want.

[@superfamilyallosauridae6505]

They should literally coat the map in blueprints for fortifications so you can put them anywhere or make them able to be put anywhere

In my opinion, adding player customization was a great idea. It was just horribly executed with awful cosmetic choices

[@randomlyepic6563]

Sorry Westie, but I disagree about the fortification system. It's boring, and far too often you have players who are building in the back and not helping the team. Then there is the fact that you build a wall, one nade/rocket/tank shell and you have to do it again, and again, and again. I just want some more indestructible cover that I don't have to build.

Honestl opinion, battlefield V art style didnt lend itself to the gritty nature of WWII fighting. Colours are over-saturated and almost like a fusion between realism and cartoonish. They should have made it more realistic with gritty washed out colours to create that WWII atmosphere instead of WWII-like arcade shooter.

[@travishurst2242]

As much as I LOVE the fortifications, I feel like a big part of delays in maps was due to the tedious implementation, so I think they should get rid of it or lighten it

I feel Battlefield have the capability to create an amazing WW2 game much like Post Scriptum. My problem is they tried to mix WW2 and modern politics together. Dice could easily just not care about SJWs and make a game with accurate maps, troops, and weaponry. Say they want to have a map in Holland during operation Market Garden, the allies need to start in the planes, parachute, and set up their attack, while the Germans have tanks like Tigers and Panthers and have to set up defenses. Every game tries to set themselves apart, battlefield doesn’t need to be hyper realistic, it would just be nice to feel immersed in war
