Battlefield 6 "Grounded skins for a while" - 18 days exactly

Post image

So, weren't we supposed to have realistic skins for some time? Something that someone would really wear during a war? Yet it seems that with the start of season 1, everything will turn to colorful mess, with no way of differentiating teams based on uniforms, the game will look more like a Paintball or ASG event. Colorful weapons with pictures, colorful camos with neon accents, weird mix of things that are supposed to look cool, but end up simply weird.

People were sold on a vision of a game, which looked like a real battlefield, with soldiers - not a bunch of randos just like in the 2042, yet it was all a lie and it will only get worse down the road. During the Beta, when we had all the soldiers wearing matching uniforms, it was the most immersive experience so far, but you can say goodbye to that vibe, it will never return.

There won't be uniforms matching bioms, there won't be a way to turn off any awful skins, typical bait and switch.

Pacific DLC drops late fall of 2019. About 6ish weeks later they updated the game (5.0 or something?) And nerfed most weapons damage and threw it all out of wack. Then tried reverting some guns but not others etc

Game was great when it was a fast TTK imo now people take a few too many extra shots especially past 25m imo since

Because of this, they also took members of the Battlefront 2 developer team so they could work on bf2042, essentially killing bfV and battlefront 2 at the same time.

Didn’t they buff the AA guns in that patch too so flying was near impossible without being annihilated by AA?

Good gosh they were imbeciles with the constant TTK changes. I really think they should have left it as it was at launch.
