Imagine the possibilities for this, 128 player Battlefield 1942 maps on latest Frostbite engine, repair tools only anyone?

Looks good. The more players can build / customise the better really, always a plus in these sorts of games.

Wow what a pleasant surprise! They had me piqued (pretty much from the title amiright?) at the NO HUD proper hardcore mode option....

Sounds awesome!

The vs AI settings available in the portal custom game mode is going to be amazing

I'm thinking "Project Reality" style servers.

That looks like there could be some serious fun to be had in the options!

I read this like we would somehow be teaching it every possible way to beat humans no matter what, which is why we can include it in all whacky game modes....
"Oh its just a feature!" they said before it rises up and beats humanity with an army of drones armed with nothing but radio controlled cars..... :roflmao:

Beta is now live on steam.

If this is played at the LAN - can there be a community decision on adoption fairly quickly after? As will need to start saving for upgrades...

20Gb ... download it early :flirty:

Only for pre-orders?

Chaosphere · October 06, 2021, 05:50:03 PM

On Friday its open to anyone. You can preload it now regardless too, just scroll down in steam to the bit that let's you 'register interest', or words to that effect.

SithAfrikaan · October 06, 2021, 10:39:12 PM

Or just add it to your library in Origin... since... you know... it will launch Origin anyway :lmfao:

TheDvEight · October 08, 2021, 05:29:13 PM

Requested beta access via steam and was accepted straight away. (no pre-order)

Played a number of games on it and got some mixed results with game bugs and lag. Doesn't really feel like a battlefield game of old and doesn't seem like a polished game I assume this won't be the final version of the game because atm I think it sucks :/
