Game is dead to me

I tried to give this game a chance. I really did.  The poor spotting, the blurry game play movement and aiming issues is just really bad.  

Tried everything to enhance and to address all those issues to no avail.

I am putting the game away in the attic and moving on.

    i'm also annoying from the spotting system on bf5 as i'm suffering from poor eyesight but actually the game is nice. 

    Try battlefield 1 it's great masterpiece game i'm playing everyday i love it for far.

    "poor spotting" , "blurry game" , "aiming issues" and "enhance" .
    These terms you've used made me realize something about BFV .
    I use my ears (via my headphones) QUITE A LOT when playing it .

    Whether it's listening for the drone of approaching engines or just straining to hear footsteps , whether it's deciding to run towards the action of distant explosions or just falling silent myself in order to hopefully hear a gun reloading nearby , it seems I don't always rely entirely on my eyes .

    In fact it's actually my ears that help me with my aiming too .
    Noises Of Unknown Location are easily found with echolocation .
    A few quick turns of my head left-right-left centers sound in my ears .
    If I've centered a sound , my weapon is at least pointed the right way .

    This said though , I can still pick out the very tiny pixels of an incoming plane if I'm staring at the sky in a AA , or see distant soldier-pixels moving about an unmoving background if I'm staring through a zoomed 6-pounder .
    This is of course the most important time for me to be listening for mysterious footsteps or engines approaching that aren't on my map :P

    tl;dr?
    Yeah , BFV's more of a both eyes-on AND ears-on BF than usual .
    It'll be a long time before I let such immersive fun gather dust .
  • Another issue is the cheating.  it is so bad in this game. If you are a novice player like me, it makes it very difficult to rank up and unlock weapons to get better when you are being dominated by high ranks and cheaters at the same time.

    @tempo_rarity I been called a cheater a few times myself because I could hear the grass/bushes moving, or footsteps. Any more when I get a kill by hearing someone I let them know "I can hear you!" before they get a chance to call me a cheater. I prefer the no spotting and relying on your eyes and not the map. I don't expect the enemy to stand out and nor do I want to or we would all be wearing those orange hunters jackets
  • @eggfarts1220 Spotting is a silly mechanism anyways, basically wall hacks.
    All you have to so is spam that spot button on older games

    Well the way  I see it, if I can visually see an enemy soldier I should be able to spot him or her to the rest of my team, at least my own squad.

    If i can give you an advise. Find a squad with people playing in squad. And if they can use the vocal, it's even better.

    In that way, you will enjoy the game.

    There is too many solo player in that game and it ruins the gameplay :'(

    Hi @Mo3tazibrahim ,

    Have same challenges as you from debilitating eye disease which unfortunately only gets worse with age...

    Have you experience from playing the BF4 game, as for me personally that enables me to have more fun despite reduced eye sight?

    Per comments above, its true, ideal is to always have friends to team up with in a squad, as just a bit of shared communication is going a long way to have fun in the game without having to rely too much on the red Doritos and sitting in a pitch black room and the shining screen in front of you.  😀

  • Best movement and gunplay in the series. Plenty of ways to spot as well.
