Battlefield™ V Reviews

Really like the Game, but EA App absolutely trash, there is a lot troubles, bugs, etc. We don't need dual launcher for launch the game

The game is great, but EA made it so that you HAVE to use their launcher which RUINS the experience. Their launcher often invalidates end of game scores and/or repeatedly asks you to activate the game via a key code, which is impossible because we bought it on Steam! Despite this Google shows that years of the same issues keep getting ignored by EA as they have abandoned this and BF1.

Battlefield V continues the “War Stories” format introduced in Battlefield 1, shifting the focus to World War II and presenting it through smaller, more personal perspectives rather than massive, all-encompassing battles. Each story explores a different side of the war, often highlighting conflicts or operations that aren’t as widely covered in popular media. It’s a refreshing way to experience the setting, giving voice to narratives that might otherwise be overshadowed by the more famous campaigns of the era. I approached the game purely for its single-player content, skipping multiplayer entirely. Over the course of roughly 10–15 hours, I worked through the campaign at a steady pace, mixing in moments of stealth with the larger firefights. The missions offer enough variation in environment and style to keep the experience engaging, even if the structure remains familiar to anyone who played Battlefield 1. Visually, Battlefield V is on par with its predecessor. The in-game environments are stunning—dense forests, snow-covered landscapes, and war-torn villages are all rendered with striking detail. Cutscenes continue the series’ use of a slightly grainy, old-film aesthetic, which fits the period and helps set the tone for each mission. While it doesn’t feel like a giant leap forward from BF1, the presentation remains top-tier for a large-scale shooter. Narratively, it’s well-executed, but for me, Battlefield 1 edges it out in emotional impact and pacing. Still, Battlefield V delivers a strong, worthwhile campaign that offers unique glimpses into WWII history, making it an easy recommendation—especially for those who enjoy smaller-scale, character-focused war stories. As part of a collection, it’s a solid companion to Battlefield 1, even if it doesn’t quite surpass it. —The Ember Archives https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45601239/

Battlefield V is a fun and great-looking game. The graphics are really nice and the shooting feels smooth. The story is short but interesting. If you like war games, you should try it!

"This game is only good on a huge discount" Otherwise the multiplayer section is unplayable. There are all these "veterans" that know exactly where you are on the map at all times. No matter how well you hide or sneak, you will be sniped from a tank on the other side of the map. It's a shame because it's a good game, better than BF 2042, the shooting feels great. There is weight on every gun and it feels awesome puling the trigger. And the maps are really well designed. There is a lot of cover and you can approach an objective from multiple angles. Too bad your location is revealed the moment you spawn, makes the above things I said useless and the game bad and unplayable. P.S. It might be a skill issue and I know there is a spotting system, but getting shot from behind a rock by tank on the other side? How good do you have to be to pull stuff like that?

Well, is it better than Battlefield 1? No. Is it still a good battlefield experience? Yes. Since it's based on WW2, we get access to more advanced weapons, attachments (you get Nydar reflex sight for assault rifles), gadgets and vehicles so if you're interested in having a more advanced loadout then it will suit your needs. The singleplayer campaign is decent but nothing spectacular like the one we experience in Battlefield 1. The stories told itself are great but the missions themselves don't really feel that good tbh. I only liked The Last Tiger chapter, which is really good overall and finally gave us an experience from the German perspective. All other chapters are pretty average gameplay wise. Multiplayer is pretty enjoyable, yes not at as good as Battlefield 1, but still very solid in its own way. You can slide, crouch run, lean while aiming, fortify the area which you couldn't in Battlefield 1, so mechanically it has few extra nice touches. The maps are mostly good as well, on full servers the matches gets chaotic and intense in good old battlefield fashion. The only way to play multiplayer matches right now is through server browsers and using appropriate filters to suit your needs. You can easily get many EU and Asian servers with near to full player counts even at off peak hours. Music deserves a huge shoutout! Soundtrack in Battlefield V, infused with WW2 flavor, hits all the right notes. During multiplayer matches, the theme kicks in at intense points and elevates the whole feel and experience of the game. BFV features some of the best variants of the classic battlefield theme! (The remastered Battlefield 1942 theme and Wake Island OST are bloody amazing) One thing I didn't like at all is the fact that it's slightly a visual downgrade from Battlefield 1. I don't know what but something's off about the way it looks, maybe it's the filters or post processing, but it definitely doesn't deliver a clean image. Atmospherically also, it's somewhat a downgrade from Battlefield 1. I understand why some people might be a little disappointed by this game specially after playing Battlefield 1, because in some areas it definitely feels like a slight downgrade instead of an upgrade. But then, Battlefield 1 was DICE's 'lightning in a bottle' moment, so following up to that was always going to be really really hard. I do like the new stuff they introduced in this game like crouch running, leaning, squad leader calls, fortifications etc but it definitely had a lot more potential which could have made it a much more solid experience. Still, it's a pretty good game in the battlefield series so i recommend picking this up.

Good game, shame the community servers are run by insecure admins who are terrified of losing. But feel free to bully them if you've got decent aim, that’s where the real fun is.

Be EA: Game releases bad and broken Slowly adds and fixes what people wanted from the start The game is finally good Move on to the next BF game AKA this game was great after years of work, too bad they quit while ahead

Great game, i prefer BF1 but this one is great too. Negative reeview because i gotta dual boot because of this game, cuz EA decided to break linux compatibility. Fuck EA.

FIRE EVERYONE AT EA LAUNCHER DIVISION! Listen here, EA! I don’t know who’s in charge of your so-called “launcher” team, but they deserve a lifetime ban from touching a single line of code ever again. I tried to launch my game - you know, the thing I paid for - and what does your launcher do? Absolutely nothing. Just sits there like a soggy piece of toast, checking files for eternity like it’s scanning the secrets of the universe. Let me be clear: I don’t want your launcher. Nobody asked for your launcher. And now, not only did you shove this bloated mess into my Steam library like a trojan horse full of bugs, but it literally doesn’t launch the game. Your launcher has one job - launch. The word is right there. Launch-er. Not “Verify files forever-er.” Not “Exist only to anger me-er.” LAUNCH. THE. GAME. This isn’t a launcher, it’s a hostage negotiation. I click play, and EA Launcher says, “Hmm, let me double-check for the hundredth time that these totally-fine files are still totally fine.” And then… nothing. Nada. Zip. Just endless checking. You’ve turned starting a game into a psychological horror experience. FIX. YOUR. TRASH. Sincerely, Someone who just wanted to play a damn game.
