The comments are actually decent this time for a twitter post.

Remember this is the game where the devs went "Dont like it? Dont buy it"

That's kind of disappointing. I actually loved BF5 when it launched but I think I just got burned out on the online FPS scene by that point.

The slow drip "chronological" method of providing content for the game was an absolute disaster. I hope they never try that again

I played Battlefront 2 so much that by time I got to this, they were so similar I had trouble sticking with it and barely made it to level 20 online.

Are you suggesting BF1 was better?

Fuck Dice and EA tbh. Got screwed over by buying the deluxe edition (massive fucking scam). Kept playing throughout all the drama since day 1. BFV was the only game I'd play daily or even weekly for that matter. I haven't played since February due to my PC being in another country (hopefully get it back in a couple weeks, have to ship it from China).

I've been a die hard Battlefield fan since BF1942 (built my first gaming PC specifically for that game, only one I haven't played was Hardline). I think BFV might be my last. BF6 would have to be ridiculously good to get me to even consider buying it.

BFV has the better gunplay and movement but the maps and atmosphere of BF1 are insanely better. That amazing atmosphere from BF1 is no where to be found in BFV.

uh yeah it was a lot better. I have more fun and intensity in a few hours of BF1 than the whole time BFV has been out. I would say that the gunplay is good but its not even any good anymore even after the half-assed reversal they did. It was good at launch. cant even think of a map that is memorable. Garbage game.

Well... Yeah fair, I did love the atmosphere on a lot of the BF1 maps. BF5 felt a little more generic.

From a technical aspect 5 felt a lot better, and the game modes were better developed though.

Both felt disappointing compared to what they could have been after BF4 though :(

@josifrees I didn't know they changed the shooting, that's really disappointing to hear.

I know EA will never release their death grip on DICE but I hope this at least makes them think about a new direction. They've got all that Apex money now. They should let DICE step out of the spotlight and just make a game.

The game fucking sucks on so many levels and overall it has been a massive turd.

They REALLY need a home run for the next title, because all that good will they got from BF1 is gone.

D-Day was a notoriously unbalanced confrontation.

I played that on DoD. Never again.

I love season passes, especially when you can buy the super mega ULTRA deluxe version for $120

I buy that one each time. Half the time I stop playing the game before the content comes out

they tried to change it a few weeks after release, everyone complained, they changed it back, then they did it again a year later without any semblance of balance, pretty much killing the game.

Guess that means no Russian front.

Amazing that the original game from 18 years ago had more content than this joke of a game

Is anyone really surprised ?, BF V has been a fuck up since the first trailer and they never actually fixed the problem the game had.

Battlefield 1 was a much better game which was made by people who actually gave a damn about making a quality product and actually gave a very good send off for that game in both SP and the MP.
