Battlefield 5 Beta Review


Battlefield 5 is a World War 2 themed shooter where you play as a soldier.
Gameplay and Mechanics.
You have 4 specialities, medic, support, sniper and engineer. Medics can revive and heal your teammates. Support can give ammo and engineers can repair and destroy vehicles.
There are also various vehicles you can drive such as tanks, airplanes and bikes.

As you progress with each level you unlock new guns and gadgets which will help you and your team win battles. The game supports up to 5 players in a squad and 32 players in each team.

once a teams score reaches 0 the other team wins. The amount of flags and how long the team holds them determine how much damage they do to the enemy team. If you get hurt in the game you can get a health pack by either by a medic giving you one (teamwork), going to a outpost with a health pack crate or waiting a while for it to regenerate which could take a while. This is also true with ammo.

Although the gameplay is good as this is a beta there are bugs and glitches. Throughout my experience with battlefield 5 there are an number of bugs that stand out. In certain circumstances when a teammate is revived he can potentially get "stuck" in an position. Another bug is to do with the settings in the game, if you use directx 12, no matter what in-game settings you use, low, medium, high or ultra, 720p, 1080p, 4k, it will always lag and stutter, this is because for some reason battlefield 5 will use up 95% of your video memory and then result to hammering your ram which will decrease fps from 80 to 15. If this bug is fixed, directx 12 could increase fps especially on systems with more than 1 graphics card.

With all of that said, I would rate the beta 8/10 mainly for its realism and gameplay.
