you need a respawn mechanic.

apex has shown how good a respawn mechanic is, and it significantly increases gameplay.

BR gameplay is on the thin side with hotdroppers almost killing the game.

so having a respawn mechanic to increase gameplay is essential

also what is that ui/ inventory and wtf is that looting, thats just lazy

You can revive squadmates.

The only thing that has me concerned is the 3x armor added to the 150 health for 300 total health. Trying to take someone down wearing all that armor seems ridiculously overpowered and unbalanced to me. Excited to try the mode though the rest all looks good.

Headshots. Same DMG as in reg mp. It's where it's at.

Think so, yes. But might be wrong. Haven't been part of playtests in a while ;)

Hey it's freaking amazing. Mind if I use it as my Twitter header?

That's because you receive 20 airlifts over 20 weeks - and the sight is the second one, the first one was an emblem.
You can find a complete list here (not in chronological order).

Even with a good connection you might be out of luck. EAs Origin network constantly shits the bed and delivers only 2.5MB/s at best. For example this was the case for me when I initially downloaded BF:V and for most of the patches so far. (edit: see other comments in this very thread)
Afaik they're using Akamai as CDN, which was critized for being slower than the competition numerous times in the past

I get 12 MB/s In Sweden from origin - but it's once all files are distributed across the backend. It seems to take a while initially every patch.

I believe it's already changed to something less red/enemy colored since that version.

First of all, big props for replying to me when I was so evidently being an arse. It is commendable and respectable.

I never expected anyone at DICE to actually see my comments and, while it's not an excuse, I dont consider real world implications of online comments, like an actual DICE employee like yourself stumbling upon my comments.

I post about DICE as if it is a faceless corporation, backed by EA (who might not have billions but make alot of money), instead of a group of actual people, so nothing I say I mean personally.

Again, not an excuse, just an explanation.

The info you detailed was actually really interesting and I am obviously wrong and didnt know what I was talking about.

I'm sure you guys are all smarter and more talented than I am but I am coming from an emotional perspective when I talk about this game.

While I'm sure you and probably no single person is personally responsible, I do still believe there are valid...

Glad we could sort this out friendly. :) Don't worry too much. Skin grows thick quickly in this environment.^^
I understand your concerns in regards to DICE or the game. All I can really say is that we hear you all. When you are happy and unhappy. We are trying our best to become better ever day and make greater games that bring more joy to peoples life. Of course it's a business and we are a company, but at the end of the day, we only make money if people enjoy and keep enjoying our games.

Just want to mention that CQA still exists within the Operation. We also made it a proper classic version where the defenders don't have a HQ.

You found the purple lifesaver!

10/10 vault grab very nicely executed

Firestorm brings the juggernaut combat vehicles of Battlefield™ V to battle royale, along with armored transports, a prototype helicopter, and even the sought-after tractor. Some of these vehicles are just for Firestorm and the ones familiar to Battlefield V veterans have been adjusted for battle royale combat*.

Although a number of vehicles are found parked throughout Halvøy, grabbing the most powerful machines requires capturing dynamic Vehicle Lockup Objectives using tactical squad or solo play. Some can also be called in using the Reinforcement flare gun....
