Imagine if they didn't drop support for this game... BFV had the potential to be one of the best games in the series. The final big update was amazing...
They could of added the Eastern front, the Italian campaign, Winter and Continuation Wars along with bringing the Soviets, Finns, French and Italians to the game and some Pacific maps with the Brits, Burma for example. They could have added so many more weapons and vehicles. The skins also towards the end of BFV started getting alot better aswell. Just so much potential in BFV that Dice wasted by killing it so 2042 can be born
@@mattwordsworth9825They really just felt like going to the next because BFV failed at launch and hoped a modern setting fixes stuff. They really just abandoned BFV the moment it had reached the standards that people expected from a triple A game.
Wasn't it because playerbase was constantly bashing at this game? I might be wrong but I still remember jacks' videos being mostly negative or neutral at best. It's a great loss for bf community that dice dropped their support for bfv, it's been the best bf imo so far, balanced but very diverse at the same time regarding the sides of battles.
@@ShadowReaper-pu2hxnah the gunplay in BF1 feels floaty and like there's no punch to the guns, the sounds to the guns are good but it's not satisfying when it hits the target
I think the reason BF5 is still popular is because of the technology. BF1 and BF5 are inceredibly good looking games, as well as every moment in them feeling like a war film. Theres next to no downtime, its chaos always. Both game really capture the essence of total world war perfectly imo.
I dont think BF5 did as good a job as BF1 as being an immersive war game. Most maps in BF5 seem too clean and superficial, BF1 was the most realistic feeling game of the series by far.
@@foxskyful Like which maps? Which ones in BF5 look as wartorn and badass as Verdun Heights? Passchendaele? Amiens? St Quentin Scar? The only BF5 map i can think of that looks grimey is Devastation.
probably because they designed the game to hold 128 players per lobby, its still their fault. Im not trying to excuse them. ESPECIALLY since those little graphical and engine upgrades they showed off prior to even announcing 2042.
I was just thinking about BF5 today. For some reason whenever the holidays roll around I get the urge to play it. I don't really know why, but it always felt like a holiday/winter time game to me.
haha me too. But I know that's because my mates and I first started it playing together just before xmas a few years ago. We spent ALL Boxing Day that year playing it.
The sounds, atmosphere, and effects made this so much immersive compared to 2042. I continued to comeback and play this game from time to time and just like Jack after playing BF1 I did a lot of research on WWI as well.
A lot of older games had more passion and creativity put into them. Games like this, Half Life source, Fallout 3, Counterstrike, and many others can be replayed regardless of the age because of the atmosphere and pure design of those games.
The jump from BF1 to BFV was quite significant too imo, like BFV to BF2042. While BFV did have a decent atmosphere, BF1 really made you feel like you were in the trenches
No one has ever commented how great the tank customization system is and the variety of tanks to use. I really wish we had gotten the eastern front that was planned
I think customization wise BF 5 is a huge improvement over BF 1 you can modify pretty much anything, you can customize your soldiers, your guns, ACTUALLY edit the stats of your guns a bit and not to mention customize the vehicles and everything Real real shame BF 5 was abandoned to be honest this game is really good, sure maybe not as good as the goat BF 1 but it’s still good on its own lol you can definitely have a fun time playing it
I have loved this game from the start. It was a weird one because all of my friends overlooked this game whereas BF1 was loved by us all, but the gunplay and atmosphere, especially on breakthrough, just felt top notch. Super underrated game
There's a reason battlebit popped off this summer, hope they go back to their roots. Imagine if they kept working on the destruction system in bfbc2/bf4
What’s EA gonna do?? Dice developers developed battlefield games on frostbite engine but EA kicked the OG developers out. The new ones don’t even know how to use frostbite engine. The OG dice developers are working on "The Finals " game.
Surge? No! They took the 100K they had for ONE day during the free weekend and ran with it! Just like the last one they said they had. Player counts on 2042 are a smidge higher than usual but NOWHERE close to a surge or anything close to it. They kept like 10% of the 100K players....Thats bad actually lol.
With numbers still this high as it is, imagine if Dice just did one big unexpected BF5 update, how many people would rush back? Older games need love too.
I miss the construction system. It looked so cool to turn an average looking capture point into a heavily fortified position that would take actual effort to take or build a field gun all the way in the middle of nowhere to mess with people
This game is super underrated in my opinion. It’s not the best bf but it was really good and one of the more beautiful bfs out there. It just relied heavily on squad team work which kind of took away from the fun being that no one really gave it a try so I didn’t really have many friends to squad up with.
Funny how when new games flop, players return to older games once deemed "substandard." Battlefield 5 has never been my favorite title but it's good to see it getting its well deserved time in the limelight. Hope you're doing well Jack. :)
I think after the Pacific expansion the game was in a great place but the player base had already fallen off and DICE discontinued support. I don’t think BFV is a case of rewritten history, although I also think it’s far superior to 2042 so with the benefit of hindsight the game wasn’t such a bad offering at all.
honestly i'd love a Battlefield game that kinda played like BF1. the Behemoths were an extremely cool feature and i really hope we can find a way to put that in a new game maybe even make a game set in the far future, with Destroyer spacecraft playing the role Airships did. 2142 mayhaps?
BFV movement is the peak of the series in my opinion. Feels so fluid and intuitive for a boots on the ground FPS. Main reason I keep coming back to it TBH.

I skipped out on BF1 because the WW setting isn’t my preference but I bought BFV without hesitation after hearing how great of a title BF1 was and fomo kicked in hard. However, I ended up confirming that the setting isn’t my vibe and the iron sights are just difficult to use. I redownloaded BFV a couple of weeks ago after having come back to 2042 since launch and missing the franchise, and with only 10 hours in BFV, I have to say the levels of grittiness and immersion are completely unmatched to any other BF game I’ve played, even BF4. Bought BF1 recently too because of the sale and I have to also say the maps across BF1 and BFV are truly next level. I hope they find a way to carry that forward into a modern setting.

there are tons of community servers that are filled to the brim and have their own anticheat, i recommend you try it out. 9/10 I can find a server to play on with a map that i want to play
Honestly, coming back to V after awhile I’m really noticing that there was SO much depth to the game. The specializations and other elements really gave you a lot to do OTHER than just play multiplayer. If they had been able to continue working on it it would have been utterly amazing with all the factions. That being said, you gotta wonder if it was EVER doable. The shear amount of possible content is insane.
@@bobbyr2972 and now the same complainers (like JackFrags) are acting like this game is a hidden gem that was misunderstood. You can’t have it both ways and it’s the reason this franchise is a shell of its former self.
@bobbyr2972 well said. That's exactly what happened. Social media morons (many who hadn't played it) jumped all over it and the publisher dropped support. That happens too often.
BF1 is still the goat for me. Every class feels very specialized having a specific role and it is mirrored on the weapons and gadgets available for the particular class. The atmosphere and immersion are top notch, it makes you feel like you're in an actual war. I'm still playing BF1 to this day (I'm in Asia) and it still packs a lot of community servers.
Well , I was out of first person gaming for almost 10 years .. I found this masterpiece in January 2020, since then I play every week ! I thought I'l be the same excited with 2042 but I only played once (no more things to say here) .. then I went back to bfv, as long as we keep this masterpiece alive il never leave as long I can enjoy this kind of activity !
It was literally the previous game you're saying the last true battlefield game as if we've had a bunch of games since they've literally only made one bad game since
@@8lue17 Battlefield games only become proper Battlefield games, when the dev has moved onto the next one. So after the next one comes out 2042 will actually be in a decent place
ITs good to know Jack frags grew up just like me.. i was in highschool getting really interested in American history in like 10th grade when Band of brothers came out.. they started making band of brothers right after saving private ryan came out.. Tom hanks worked as a producer on it if i recall in fact.. and then his son (coincidentally i'm sure..) did a guest star on one episode .. Became so fascinated by WW2 in high school..i'm sure in UK WW1 is the much bigger lesson given its effect on the country.
Yeah, but for me it's the opposite, I like both but prefer BF5, love shooting in BF5 and hate shooting in BF1, feels like I'm pissing bullets there lol
@RilezGamer AGREED. BF5 has super solid gun play. I have almost 2500 hours into BF5. I had loads of fun times with my buddies. Sadly we've all moved on with our lives and don't play much anymore.
@@RilezGamer marksman rifles like the Selbstlader M1916 Marksman in the Medic Class on BF1 are brilliant and get me most of the kills. Bloom is quite common, but, try get more accurate 🤣.
@@Lucius1050 That's the issue with BF1 though, mechanics like random bullet deviation completely handicap the gunplay because you can only get so good at the game before you'll be at the mercy of RNG systems. That's why BFV's gunplay is infinitely superior
Loved this game back then! I remember back when different things were meta, the fleigerfaust with 3 shots of ammo, the Type 2A with no recoil, even now, it is fun to play with different classes! Nothing beats being a good medic in game though?
This game was riddled with issues for a long time and design wise it didn't sit well with a lot of people with its super weird take on WW2. But mechanically this game is absolutely brilliant!
Glad to see you play BFV. One of my favorite battlefield. Only reason I don’t play much cause cheaters/hackers. Had such memories shifting from PS4 13:56 into pc gaming
I don't know why the industry has decided that historical shooters aren't viable considering the success of BF1 and the eventual popularity of BFV once it got it together. If they would just go all in on the authenticity and immersion like they did with BF1 they'd have no competition in the market.
BF1 is authentic, not historical. The same levels of artistically liberty that were taken on BF1 are present on BFV. But at least they made BF1 feel like WW1, even though it looks more like a steampunk cluster fuck.
@flowerthencrranger3854 Thats what I said. I only mean historical as in the context. AAA pubilshers seem to have decided that near-future is the only profitable setting after they all put out a series of half-assed entries.
Dude I’m a couple years younger than you but that throwback to Medal of Honor Allied Assault…holy cow that was a great game and to just know we played WW2 games before call of duty took over that’s so funny.
If it weren't for it's abysmal marketing and launch, this is one of the best battlefield ever made. Gunplay, maps, vehicles, all of it was just perfect.
@@Tinkering902 Im not one who cried their eyes out when the trailer came out, but i will admit it did disappoint me a bit. The trailer failed to give a WW2 feeling and it lacked the grittiness of BF1. Looking back at it I'd still say it fails to encapsulate what the game is like now (epic planes flying over, hordes of men rushing, tanks tanking etc etc).
I do hope Battlefield returns to a WWII setting again and learn from their mistakes with BFV. It had the potential to one of the best. Imagine a Battlefield 1942 with BFV's graphics and movement, along with BF1's atmosphere.
I play it daily. I never have any trouble finding a server that's full. There are a few blatant cheaters that I know by name but with so many severs to use I just jump to another one. This is my favorite battlefield so I can tolerate the few that try to mess up the games for everyone.
To date, Battlefield V has the best moment to moment gunplay there's ever been in a video game. It's a shame it was cut down early in its life by a bad publisher and a bad initial studio.
Yes plus bfv and bf1 both don’t have many servers here in the US. I can still find some games in bfv but in bf1 I only see like two tdm servers every time I get on. They’re definitely better than everything since 4 came out
I'll tell you why. The answer is simple. It was the last battlefield game to be developed by the original developers. They left Dice and EA. 2042 was created by call of duty developers.
Only problem I've had with BFV (besides the blatant cheaters every once in a while), is the performance. It runs terribly on my PC, which is really weird to me since BF2042 runs quite well. When I bought 2042 a few months ago, I was frankly expecting to refund it within 30 mins due to poor performance. Instead, I can run it on medium to medium-high settings mostly while maintaining a STEADY 70fps. BFV struggles to run at 50fps on medium settings while also being very stuttery. Its really sad tbh, I loved BFV a lot.
BF1 is still in my opinion the best Battlefield experience. The music, maps, weapons, sound design. It was as authentic as they could get it, with a few creative liberties taken that made the game feel good to play. BFV had a rough start but it was starting to get to the same level as BF1, right when they pulled the plug.
i played bf 5 when it came out and it was not very good but after some time this game got addicting. I never understood the hate towards this game. I personally loved it and ill likely play it now.
My xbox boys, and I played this few weeks ago we had fun. When we see games like mw3, and bf42 in which is better now then when it began this game is standing the test of time. This game is on Xbox game pass for free bc of deal with EAplay. This is one of the most underrated BFs games and FPS multi in general. This game has action in which bf42 lacks.
I got this game when it first dropped for PS5 and fell in love with it. Probably one of the top best 10 games out there in the world. imagine this on PC way smoother. The sniping is top notch in this. If anyone is looking for a squad or something let me know been dying to play this game but stop because it take soo much space just like COD😭
The graphics in bf5 was just so insanely immersive and the gameplay is good. It really feels like u can play like a real soldier with the same tactics. Immersion is the key
It is far from my favorite WW2 shooter but it has more players than most of the ones i love AND it is a good/great Battlefield experience. Had little to no issues with the game when i played it 1-2 years ago and only quit playing due to being "done" and other games came around.
At 7:53 it actually felt like a normal battlefield and realistic were you have your squad working as a team to push up on a enemy position and take them out and it takes coordination as a team and so many games and battlefield 2042 have lost that aspect and it feels so good to have it in games like this
Jack Frags and Battlefield go together like fine wine and aged cheese. Would love to see you hop on Star Citizen again. generally speaking its been pretty stable lately.
This game looks so good, even being 6 years old! Amazing how much COD has gone the way of the landfill. The audio, the environments, everything fully emerses you!
11:00 in my school in the US, it was very similar. They taught us why it started and emphasized the trench and chemical warfare, but that was about it.
I still find the game enjoyable. I just can't get with futuristic enemies and weapons. BF5 has its faults as we all know but love playing with and against the German and Japanese army uniforms as well as the British & US's.
Loved the mention of MOHAA. One of the very first fps shooter games I learned to play on my dad's old computer on disc. Had both expansion packs! Good times.
Just bought it today on PS5😍, last time I played on PS4 in 2019, it was such an amazing game, I remember very well played every day for hours an hours BF3 BF1 BF4 ,, the beast ,,

Just playing and not click baiting, or any gimmick stuff! Need more of this content. Playing games to just enjoy them! Much love!
I never hated this game. I had plenty of fun with it and bf1. If cheating wasn't so bad id still play it.
Play on Community servers only.
there are tons of community servers that are filled to the brim and have their own anticheat, i recommend you try it out. 9/10 I can find a server to play on with a map that i want to play
@@karma9007 u cant if ur from europe because of ping and there is no community servers in europe...
@@sully1527 There is in BF5. BF1 have to check again.
@@sully1527 BFV robot servers have 3rd party anticheat. There's 3/4 european ones iirc
Honestly, coming back to V after awhile I’m really noticing that there was SO much depth to the game. The specializations and other elements really gave you a lot to do OTHER than just play multiplayer. If they had been able to continue working on it it would have been utterly amazing with all the factions. That being said, you gotta wonder if it was EVER doable. The shear amount of possible content is insane.
I really wish Dice would have kept support for this game going instead of 2042. Like this game since day one
Agree , I was so pissed they stopped supporting it
Everyone complained that this game would kill the franchise and they should drop it anyways. What did you expect?
@@Holdthetomatoesplz the complainers on social media ruin it. They know more than the developers.
@@bobbyr2972 and now the same complainers (like JackFrags) are acting like this game is a hidden gem that was misunderstood. You can’t have it both ways and it’s the reason this franchise is a shell of its former self.
@bobbyr2972 well said. That's exactly what happened. Social media morons (many who hadn't played it) jumped all over it and the publisher dropped support.
That happens too often.
Everyone hates the current battlefield until the next one comes out.
BF1 is still the goat for me. Every class feels very specialized having a specific role and it is mirrored on the weapons and gadgets available for the particular class. The atmosphere and immersion are top notch, it makes you feel like you're in an actual war. I'm still playing BF1 to this day (I'm in Asia) and it still packs a lot of community servers.
All classes in bf1 are specialized at FEEDING ENEMY TANK AND AIRPLANE PLAYERS 😂🤣
@@notenjoying666It's true if your team consists of 70% scouts and nobody using AA or AT rocket.
BFV is the Most closest gaming experience to WW2 you can get for sure.
More Battlefield 4, 1, and 5 videos Jack!!!! Thank you!
What about 2142?!?!
Fewer bf1 and 5 videos Jack. Bf4 is okay, it’s alright.
Bf3, bc2, even swbf2 would be great
Well , I was out of first person gaming for almost 10 years .. I found this masterpiece in January 2020, since then I play every week ! I thought I'l be the same excited with 2042 but I only played once (no more things to say here) .. then I went back to bfv, as long as we keep this masterpiece alive il never leave as long I can enjoy this kind of activity !
I will never let BFV die. The last true battlefield game 😊
It was literally the previous game you're saying the last true battlefield game as if we've had a bunch of games since they've literally only made one bad game since
BFV is 5 years old. So yeah, it still stands as the last true battlefield. I just hope their next game is actually what the fan base wants!
@@8lue17 Battlefield games only become proper Battlefield games, when the dev has moved onto the next one. So after the next one comes out 2042 will actually be in a decent place
@@ince55antI dont think 2042 will be as respected as BF1 or BF5 is, BF5 atleast has some enjoyable aspects, 2042 doesn’t have much going for it.
BF1 was the last true Battlefield game. The revisionist history from people is baffling.
BFV was a subpar BF game AT BEST.
ITs good to know Jack frags grew up just like me.. i was in highschool getting really interested in American history in like 10th grade when Band of brothers came out.. they started making band of brothers right after saving private ryan came out.. Tom hanks worked as a producer on it if i recall in fact.. and then his son (coincidentally i'm sure..) did a guest star on one episode .. Became so fascinated by WW2 in high school..i'm sure in UK WW1 is the much bigger lesson given its effect on the country.
I really prefer BFV over BF2042, it still looks great too . nice to see an active player base
You mean BF2042. BF2142 is a different game (it even has mechs and sky bases)
@@Constantin_91 yea sorry that’s what I meant
BF2142 was awesome. When I first heard they were gonna make BF2042 they really got my hopes up. First (and last) time i bought on preorder...
One feature I loved with older BF games was the destruction of buildings! Epic!
It’s a good day when jack play’s BFV
None on xbox or ps
If BFV went free to play, Firestorm would become the most popular BR
This game is so satisfying, still my 2nd fav battlefield. Battlefield 1 being my favourite
Yeah, but for me it's the opposite, I like both but prefer BF5, love shooting in BF5 and hate shooting in BF1, feels like I'm pissing bullets there lol
@RilezGamer AGREED. BF5 has super solid gun play. I have almost 2500 hours into BF5. I had loads of fun times with my buddies. Sadly we've all moved on with our lives and don't play much anymore.
@@RilezGamer marksman rifles like the Selbstlader M1916 Marksman in the Medic Class on BF1 are brilliant and get me most of the kills. Bloom is quite common, but, try get more accurate 🤣.
@@Lucius1050NO WAY TO GET MORE ACCURATE IN BF1 BRO. YOU CANT BE ACCURATE IN THE GAME WITH MATH.RANDOM RECOIL SYSTEM LMAO 🤣😂
@@Lucius1050 That's the issue with BF1 though, mechanics like random bullet deviation completely handicap the gunplay because you can only get so good at the game before you'll be at the mercy of RNG systems. That's why BFV's gunplay is infinitely superior
I recently bought battle field 2042, 1, and 5 and I have to say I haven't had this much fun on my console is such a long time
Loved this game back then! I remember back when different things were meta, the fleigerfaust with 3 shots of ammo, the Type 2A with no recoil, even now, it is fun to play with different classes! Nothing beats being a good medic in game though?
i always have so much fun as medic or trying to be a helpful engineer (aka tank medic)
This game was riddled with issues for a long time and design wise it didn't sit well with a lot of people with its super weird take on WW2. But mechanically this game is absolutely brilliant!
I have been playing this a bunch lately. Very underrated game after all the polishing after an even rougher launch for a battlefield title.
Love your commentary jack. I also like the variety of games you showcase. Keep up the good work. Ill keep watching on my end. 👍
Love the gameplay on BF5❤ Keep the vids coming Jack!🙏
my favourite Jack videos are these BFV videos! love it! 🙌
There's also still loads of people playing BF V on console, you can almost always load into a full lobby on PS4
Glad to see you play BFV. One of my favorite battlefield. Only reason I don’t play much cause cheaters/hackers. Had such memories shifting from PS4 13:56 into pc gaming
I don't know why the industry has decided that historical shooters aren't viable considering the success of BF1 and the eventual popularity of BFV once it got it together. If they would just go all in on the authenticity and immersion like they did with BF1 they'd have no competition in the market.
BF1 is authentic, not historical. The same levels of artistically liberty that were taken on BF1 are present on BFV.
But at least they made BF1 feel like WW1, even though it looks more like a steampunk cluster fuck.
@flowerthencrranger3854 Thats what I said. I only mean historical as in the context. AAA pubilshers seem to have decided that near-future is the only profitable setting after they all put out a series of half-assed entries.
jackfrags, I really enjoyed watching this, so I hit the like button!
I love it when big YTbers tell people when games are in sale. It's like it renews the player base a little bit every time. Thank you Jack.
A fellow band of brothers at Christmas enjoyer! Not sure why I always watch this time of year but it’s a tradition
I love BFV! Only downside is the hackers. But that's pretty much any pvp game out there. Still a very solid game
hackers are only on official dice servers, and not the custom made servers? As far as I remember anyways
@@jgsource552 That's definitely true. The admins on custom servers are quick to get rid of any blatant hackers.
@@jgsource552nah. They are everywhere. Just not as blatant lol😅
welp, looks i still have to keep playing bf1.... not like im complaining tho lol@@notenjoying666
@@jgsource552 1 is in the same state rn.
Been really thinking about re-downloading BFV. Been playing so much BF1 over the past few months and I still enjoy it.
The Cheaters killed it for me.
Dude I’m a couple years younger than you but that throwback to Medal of Honor Allied Assault…holy cow that was a great game and to just know we played WW2 games before call of duty took over that’s so funny.
Ah the usual bf cycle, hate the game at release and then have fond memories of it.
My parents moved me from the UK to US and the map is just giving me nostalgic vibes.
If it weren't for it's abysmal marketing and launch, this is one of the best battlefield ever made. Gunplay, maps, vehicles, all of it was just perfect.
Marketing was only abysmal to incels.
@@Tinkering902 Im not one who cried their eyes out when the trailer came out, but i will admit it did disappoint me a bit. The trailer failed to give a WW2 feeling and it lacked the grittiness of BF1. Looking back at it I'd still say it fails to encapsulate what the game is like now (epic planes flying over, hordes of men rushing, tanks tanking etc etc).
@@Tinkering902or those of us who care about a BASIC level of historical authenticity to keep it somewhat believable.
@@Zakhev342you're telling me there were no crippled black women with an antitank rifle in ww2?😢
That's a shame that Firestorm isn't as popular as the rest of the modes. Best Battle royale, imho
I do hope Battlefield returns to a WWII setting again and learn from their mistakes with BFV. It had the potential to one of the best. Imagine a Battlefield 1942 with BFV's graphics and movement, along with BF1's atmosphere.
I wish the gameplay lasts at least 1h…it’s so satisfying to see, especially you, play it ❤
Still an incredible game!
Compared to the new BF, it is.
Some great cinematic battles in the European theatre.
Battlefield V is so good with me. Gotta download it and retry the experience I have forgotten years ago. Thanks for noticing me the game back.
I play it daily. I never have any trouble finding a server that's full. There are a few blatant cheaters that I know by name but with so many severs to use I just jump to another one. This is my favorite battlefield so I can tolerate the few that try to mess up the games for everyone.
Me and my squad are running BF5 and Apex in rotation. I’m missing battlefield as a whole. Hope to God the next one isn’t a let down 🙏🏻
To date, Battlefield V has the best moment to moment gunplay there's ever been in a video game.
It's a shame it was cut down early in its life by a bad publisher and a bad initial studio.
Yes plus bfv and bf1 both don’t have many servers here in the US. I can still find some games in bfv but in bf1 I only see like two tdm servers every time I get on. They’re definitely better than everything since 4 came out
Who wants to play a game without community servers and full of cheaters... ill wait..
Bro. Community servers were added 4 years ago in bf5 😂😂😂
The best movement system in Battlefield history, should have been the standard going forward.
EA gives Jack another 2042 weekly “cope” sponsor
JACK to his daddy EA : “ we salute the shaft and the balls 🫡 “
Envy can consume you.
I'll tell you why. The answer is simple. It was the last battlefield game to be developed by the original developers. They left Dice and EA. 2042 was created by call of duty developers.
Only problem I've had with BFV (besides the blatant cheaters every once in a while), is the performance. It runs terribly on my PC, which is really weird to me since BF2042 runs quite well. When I bought 2042 a few months ago, I was frankly expecting to refund it within 30 mins due to poor performance. Instead, I can run it on medium to medium-high settings mostly while maintaining a STEADY 70fps. BFV struggles to run at 50fps on medium settings while also being very stuttery. Its really sad tbh, I loved BFV a lot.
My copy won’t run on Win 11 for some reason. Top end system, can’t find a work around.
This game using cpu more than gpu..Play on medium settings turn off direct x 12 and vysnc..
Turn future frame rendering ON.
Use Dx11.
Helped allot.
VSync Off.
Keep the other settings.
BF1 is still in my opinion the best Battlefield experience. The music, maps, weapons, sound design.
It was as authentic as they could get it, with a few creative liberties taken that made the game feel good to play.
BFV had a rough start but it was starting to get to the same level as BF1, right when they pulled the plug.
BF5 is too much of an arcade game, they should slow it down a bit and make it more realistic like Hell let loose.
The bayonet tank grenade has given me some of the best clips. Love that game. If you get a full squad, the fun never ends.
i played bf 5 when it came out and it was not very good but after some time this game got addicting. I never understood the hate towards this game. I personally loved it and ill likely play it now.
Pls make more vids about bf5 btw huge fan and you made my day!
Just loaded mine up today and I never realised how much I loved it and how good the graphics are ❤
My xbox boys, and I played this few weeks ago we had fun. When we see games like mw3, and bf42 in which is better now then when it began this game is standing the test of time. This game is on Xbox game pass for free bc of deal with EAplay. This is one of the most underrated BFs games and FPS multi in general. This game has action in which bf42 lacks.
I've been playing alot of battlefield 1 lately. You're the first person I've seen ever say this game is good
I got this game when it first dropped for PS5 and fell in love with it. Probably one of the top best 10 games out there in the world. imagine this on PC way smoother. The sniping is top notch in this. If anyone is looking for a squad or something let me know been dying to play this game but stop because it take soo much space just like COD😭
The problem with Bf5 is the sheer number of cheats on the servers.
THE SOUNDS AND FEEL AND ATMOSPHERE OF BF1 AND BFV ARE SO MUCH BETTER
I PERSONALLY LOVE THE OLDER STYLE WW2 WW1 GUNS AND GAMES
The graphics in bf5 was just so insanely immersive and the gameplay is good. It really feels like u can play like a real soldier with the same tactics. Immersion is the key
Missed this game so much. Hackers ruined the mood for me
It is far from my favorite WW2 shooter but it has more players than most of the ones i love AND it is a good/great Battlefield experience. Had little to no issues with the game when i played it 1-2 years ago and only quit playing due to being "done" and other games came around.
At 7:53 it actually felt like a normal battlefield and realistic were you have your squad working as a team to push up on a enemy position and take them out and it takes coordination as a team and so many games and battlefield 2042 have lost that aspect and it feels so good to have it in games like this
Realistic... are you serious? Those character skins are laughable.
@@beerdemus2812it’s just the skin bro does it really bother you that much??
Jack Frags and Battlefield go together like fine wine and aged cheese. Would love to see you hop on Star Citizen again. generally speaking its been pretty stable lately.
This game looks so good, even being 6 years old! Amazing how much COD has gone the way of the landfill. The audio, the environments, everything fully emerses you!
In all ur footage ur aim is so still and sturdy. How do you get rid of the recoil? When I play my gun is ducking going everywhere when I shoot 😂
A game called Post Scriptum is WW2 based which has recently been put around
11:00 in my school in the US, it was very similar. They taught us why it started and emphasized the trench and chemical warfare, but that was about it.
I like Battlefield. Feels great when a formulated plan actually works. There are more players who are competent than bloodthirsty in BFV.
I still find the game enjoyable. I just can't get with futuristic enemies and weapons. BF5 has its faults as we all know but love playing with and against the German and Japanese army uniforms as well as the British & US's.
Loved the mention of MOHAA. One of the very first fps shooter games I learned to play on my dad's old computer on disc. Had both expansion packs! Good times.
This game would have a had a much higher player count if they stuck to realistic soldiers
I do miss bf5
It was my first ever ps4 game since I got the ps4
Lot of nostalgia😢
Just bought it today on PS5😍, last time I played on PS4 in 2019, it was such an amazing game, I remember very well played every day for hours an hours BF3 BF1 BF4 ,, the beast ,,
