Beta observations
I left the franchise after BF4 as the changes weren't for me. However, I can safely say that after 22 hours beta time, we are back boys! However, just some notes from my time so far:
- Shotguns. They are tweaked perfectly for close range but being able to two tap at a distance needs a look. Just reduce effective range and we are golden.
- Sniper Glint: As an infantry player, its amazing but realistically, it is too bright. Do they have 10,000 lumens LEDs on their rifles? Glint should be turned down.
- Tanks: Leave them right where they are. They are in a golden place.
- Weapon switching: Honestly, I prefer class locked weapons. The idea of assault with the beacon is kind of broken.
- Squads: Several times, we would join with a full squad only to have the leader show every mode as locked. We'd have to pass leader around to whoever was showing unlocked to get into a game.
- Kill feed: Love the idea of showing where the enemy was when they killed you as opposed to kill cam. However, it would only show up inconsistently over the weekend. Many times, it just seemed, you died with a kill report but no markers.
Just my observations from PS5. Day 1 purchase. Well done DICE
