![]() Open your map up and consider the situation. If you don’t and everyone sprints away, the enemy will capture that flag uncontested. If it isn’t completely blue, if it has even a single spec of red in it, an enemy is hiding somewhere in the capture zone. Look at the bar in the middle of the screen. When you capture a point in conquest, don’t immediately sprint away to the next flag. Look I get it, we all have the attention spans of a goldfish now, but this is important. So, this is primarily a tip for conquest due to the complete freedom you have in how and where you choose to put yourself. This Battlefield V guide won’t help you with your aim, but it may make your teammates like you more… or at least hate you a little bit less… Battlefield V Guide Lesson 1: DEFEND! Rather than sit and hope that the player base can learn and adjust, I thought I’d do my part to try and nudge you in the right direction. A lot of new systems and changes to the series will require players to adapt to new tactics and playstyles in V. Battlefield V is scheduled to release on November 20th.As I noted in my Battlefield V Review. If you want to go and see the sights for yourself, or maybe be of actual help to your teammates, you can play the beta until Tuesday the 11th of September. Sadly, though, this person eventually got tired of me following them around, or perhaps misunderstood my weapon choice, and my photography adventure ended with a knife fight. There’s an interesting quirk where other players’ avatars will turn to look at you when you approach, in a way that I think has nothing to do with where the player is actually looking? It’s a neat touch to make a squad feel together, even if you’re not just in it for the screenshots. Instead, I started following this specific sniper for a while: (In other words, it’s beyond the game’s boundaries.) Mostly, I wanted to go and visit this postcard-perfect house, but apparently deserting is rather frowned upon. Sorry, unnamed soldier who got on the way of my relentless pursuit of scenery shots.Īfter this small incident I returned to Norway, where I discovered that skydiving is the perfect time to take in the views, and to watch in horror as other planes explode before your very eyes: ![]() These neon signs caught my fancy for a while, mostly because trying to catch them all lit up at once was a real test of reflexes.Īnd then there are the spots where you get ambushed and have to drop the shtick for a second to do some good old-fashioned war. Still, there are spots that you can pretend everything is normal. This, perhaps unsurprisingly, became something of a theme: The furnishings aren't a problem everywhere, though, like in the fancily decorated White House objective:īut the horrors of war are still lurking in every corner. This is why that beta notice is important! See also, this weird alley that leads to the void: Moving out of Norway and into Rotterdam, I figured out how to get my slightly less intrusive knife equipped just in time to capture the styled minimalism and chiaroscuro of its interiors.Īlternatively, it’s a bit weird that these houses are so empty, and I imagine the game's overall contrast levels will be toned down before the game’s real launch. Again, war is hell.įor me, the best shots come at the end of matches, as the camera pans up and away from the actual fighting, but people with all the tools and who are much better photographers than me will likely be creating stunning albums even in the midst of gunfights, like they did with Battlefield 1. Unfortunately, that lulled me into rather a false sense of security when it came to peering out of this bunker into oncoming fire.įor some reason, being downed brings all the UI back, which is a shame, though not quite as harrowing as all the “hold to call for help” voice lines. This fellow I ran into further down the beach turned out to be alright: ![]() It’s very helpful for when you want to take in both the beautiful snow-sea-sky combo and the juxtaposition between the fishing boat and the warship, like so:īut it also makes it impossible to tell friend from foe. The thing about Dice allowing you to turn off pretty much the whole HUD is that.I’m not sure they should do that? At least when it comes to encouraging players to shoot at one another. I can only apologise to my teammates, but with the consolation that my aim is terrible so I wouldn’t have been much help anyway. ![]() Handily, they’ve also allowed you to turn off almost all the UI (except that ‘BETA’ notice in the corner, and the fact you can’t holster your weapon), so I spent several matches documenting views and action alike as an amateur wartime photographer. According to Dice, though, war is also full of some incredibly stunning vistas just begging to be screenshot. The Battlefield V beta is raging right now and I can confirm: war is indeed hell.
