    I like it, big improvement on the visual side. I like the way you can climb you on ledges and walls now. Where is best to preorder it. I want a physical copy ? any ideas ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,381 ✭✭✭Br4tPr1nc3


    not sure where to get it for as I would rather the digital copy if I am to buy it.

    but i'm sure gamestop or any other game retailer will have it or order a copy in maybe?

    Was going to try Amazon, but might drop into gamestop today and see what there offering with the pre-order.
    The beta is good, the tanks seem very powerfull and the sniper rifle seems extremely accurate.

    Based on what I've played so far I'll be preordering anyway it's not perfect but it's very good

    Installed game. Forced to update otherwise fine graphics drivers. Get generic "unable to connect to EA servers" message, along with a generic link suggesting the issue is my account is banned or I have connection issues. Remember why I hate EA. Uninstall game.

    Meh played a few more games and it's nothing special.

    The beta has put me off just like it did with Battlefront.


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,558 ✭✭✭✭dreamers75


    I love it, blends all recent improvements in a WW1 era game.

    Definite buy for me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,572 ✭✭✭EoinHef


    I thought it was only ok really,as said before the balance feels way off with the vehicles/horses though.

    Not gonna be a day one for me,may wait and see how it is on release before making up my mind.

    It might be that im just a bit jaded of the Battlefield series at this point

    I hate the map.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,417 ✭✭✭FAILSAFE 00


    I was really looking forward to the alpha map.

    hardcore mode is where this game will shine imo, hate unloading a clip into someone only to then get killed by them

    There is no way I am playing hardcore mode with all those snipers out there :p

    They will most likely gravitate towards hardcore which will make normal mode better IMO.

    Most hardcore severs will have class limits on snipers.
