These guys are commenting on negatives that don't really exist since the game is designed to make squad play important. You're getting flanked because you're squads arent doing it right.

And complaining about the time to get unlocks is lol.

Battlefield needs to go back to it's roots plain and simple the modern BF games feel as brainless as COD. It's not worth a penny anymore until this series takes off the training wheels.

@warmblur: You havent played this game then. BFV actually implemented a lot of sim-type shooter gameplay into this game.

They got rid of grenade spam, spotting spam, you dont have unlimited ammo, you dont regen health you have to depend on support classes for these things. They added building fortifications. It actually really tactical.

IMHO this is the best BF since BF2.

The only major drawbacks I have with the game currently is the maps aren't as good as previous games and that it launched without Americans and the Soviets. But I'm guessing they will come in time with patches since the game is going for a historical timeline with the DLC.

I quit on Battlefield after Battlefield went backwards in time to a fictional World War 1.
