Multiplat Battlefield V

[silverscope]

On May 23, join comedian Trevor Noah and members of the DICE team as we present the Battlefield™ V Live Reveal. As the live stream draws near, we’ve compiled the top ten things to look forward to.

1. A New Battlefield…

It’s a brand-new experience and still everything you love about Battlefield – where every fight is different and brought to life across unexpected theatres of war. Discover the new challenges that will change war forever.

2. …in a New Setting

Battlefield 1 gave players the definitive World War 1 experience that brought the dawn of all-out war to life. But the next Battlefield happens on another frontline. The live reveal will give players the first look at DICE’s immersive portrayal of the new setting.

3. Info Straight from the Developers Behind Battlefield V

Come for Trevor Noah, stay for the developers. Hear from DICE team members Andreas Morell, Senior Producer, Lars Gustavsson, Senior Producer, and Daniel Berlin, Design Director, as they fill you in on their Battlefield V vision.

4. Unseen Multiplayer Moments

You can of course expect large-scale multiplayer in the next Battlefield – but Battlefield V takes it to the next level. Prepare for multiplayer that spans multiple maps and modes, meaning you’ll experience more varied and exciting Battlefield moments.

5. Unmatched Sights and Sounds

Battlefield has always been about high-fidelity immersion, and Battlefield V isn’t any different. Tune in, and you’ll be among the first to hear and see the stunning environments that you’ll soon be playing within.

6. New Modes and Experiences

A player-favorite from Battlefield 1, Operations have given you the chance to take epic journeys across several maps. Will this teamplay-focused experience be in the next Battlefield? You’ll know if you watch the live reveal!

7. Gameplay Changes

While we don’t want to scoop our own reveal, you can bet your favorite Battlefield 1 weapon that exciting gameplay changes are coming. Because of this, we suggest not even blinking during the Battlefield V Live Reveal.

8. Trevor Noah

The comedian and host of the The Daily Show is not only a gamer, but a defender of video gaming. Funny, smart, and loves video games? We couldn’t think of a better person to host our live reveal then this South African legend.

9. The Return of War Stories

DICE believes in both all-out multiplayer and single player, and the live reveal will have more info on the returning fan-favorite War Stories. Prepare for untold, compelling narratives in a new setting.

My friend had a theory that the V stood for Vietnam

My friend had a theory that the V stood for Vietnam

Also a theory going around that its V for Victory (WW2) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V_sign#Second_World_War:_V_for_Victory_campaign

They also talk about bringing back war stories, can you just imagine D-Day landings in frostbite.

Reckon I’m in a small minority that would love it be a WW2 setting again. BF1 played like a WW2 game anyway so throw in some Stugs, Panthers, T-34s, Abrams with BF109s etc, recreate Kursk, Battle of the Buldge, Market Garden, and like you said in Frostbyte, and it should be nuts.

Recon the V just means 5 to be honest.

Recon the V just means 5 to be honest.

That was my initial thought but I like the idea it is a secret code lol

 

[Premiers04]

BF1 was a solid game that was unfortunately shallow and lacking compared to it's predecessors.

Vietnam would be my preference but i'll take anything that isn't WW1.

 

[Quivorir]

I would love a Vietnam game personally. Don't think I have ever put any real time into a Vietnam based one but love the setting.

for sure. Bloody hell every time I see you post I always agree with you.... you lad.

Could do, hope not though given it should be Battlefield 6.

Check the tweet

I was hoping the next one would be a refresh of BF1942, but based on that I'd say it's Vietnam. Battlefield Vietnam wasn't a bad game, probably not as enjoyable as 1942 and perhaps a little overshadowed by the Desert Combat mod for 1942. It would be good if they just followed wars in order though.

I've interpreted that tweet as correcting PC Gamer in saying that's not V as in 5 or anything to do with Vietnam, but it's actually named V. It's an interesting time to announce a new BF game if it is in fact WW2 because the anniversary for Victory Day was only a couple weeks ago and we're a couple weeks shy of D-Day. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[Viney]

WW2, Vietnam, I'm not fussed, just looking forward to a new BF game

 

[Big Sauce 21]

I loved BF1, still do. So hopefully they keep it similar with the play style and fine tune smaller issues internally.

 

[Sub_Zero]

DICE haven't used roman numerals in their previous titles so I reckon the V does stand for Vietnam and not 5

Edit: Also Battlefield 1 came after Battlefield 4 so why would the V stand for 5?

 

[Juddy88]

Vietnam add on for BC2 was ******* badass, hopefully this is similar.

Sadly BF has been slowly regressing ever since...

Yep. That was the peak of my online gaming. Over 1000 hours sunk in, have never gone over 200 hours for any other game.

And then they brought out the Vietnam expansion for free on disk which was a whole new game. What was there, 10 map packs released for free?

Getting sad thinking about it

 

[silverscope]

Looks like WW2 to me

Yeah WW2, up the top the UI has the Union Jack of the Brits as the blue team versus the Iron Cross of the Nazis as the red team.

Excellent, this opens up some cool opportunities for massive naval/air battles, not to mention mass beach landings like the old Omaha Beach and Wake Island maps, or even something like a Pearl Harbor map with 16 planes vs. everything else destroying targets instead of capturing locations.

Yep and with War Stories coming back from BF1 It'll open up a larger amount of areas to battle instead of being tied to just Europe, although Pacific will probably be DLC

 

[E92_]

I pumped a tonne of hours into BF1, so this is one of my most anticipated games of the year. Much prefer the WW1/2 setting over modern/futuristic.

Pretty sad that we can probably already guess the DLC. Reckon it will be '44 onward, hence the V, so Pacific and Africa will be DLC as to not conflict with the timeline, then either whatever isn't included in the base game between Mediterranean (Crete/Italy) and Eastern Front. Can't see a BF game missing the opportunity to recreate Kursk. Pacific will exist to re-create Wake Island map. Africa for Operation Crusader and Aussies to get a mention again.
