You need a bit of that though, not to the levels of the old Metro map from BF3 necessarily but choke points make thinks interesting. I'm just hoping they do an "Omaha" style map, beach landing vs. defenders, although with the state of gaming right now you'd have half the team quit if they ended up on the attacking side coz stats

Loaded it up to check out opening cinematic, yeah it's pretty good.
Wont get a chance to play until tomorrow though

The gameplay from the recent private event (which apparently isn't final build, yet still updated from the beta) on the new maps looks considerably better than what we played a couple months back.
Fingers crossed!
Look forward to hearing thoughts from those on here with early access.

I assumed the Xbox EA Access trial was today as well. Apparently it isn't until the 12th.
On the plus side I'll be able to play it for 1 or 2 hours a night over the week as opposed to using the whole 10 hours over the weekend.

Geez this gameplay is so much quicker/more hectic than what BF1 was.
Played a few rounds tonight and just trying assault. Mainly go medic but I think I'm going to try and go a bit of a tank buster role. Already got a few tank kills with RPG/C4 combo.
Tried a plane, sucked ass. I'll stick to ground combat lol

Game feels so much better than BF1.
They definitely chose the wrong maps for the beta, Twisted Steel the stand out map for me.
Looks absolute mint on the One X too.

I've just got basic Origin Access so downloading the trial now. I'm pretty sure I won't like it but I'm curious. Sounds like the game plays well but I'll probably just privately bitch to myself because I'm a WW2 nerd and it won't be the sim that I want.

While I do like Twisted Steel I really like Arras atm.
Hit me up if you want a game later tonight if you're around, do try to just have fun with it even though I know it wont be accurate.

Yeah Arras and Twisted Steel are my interchangable top 2, both in aesthetics and map design.

I reckon I will. Just sent you a request, thought I had you on Origin already. Tried picking up AC Odyssey again but after RDR2 I'm a little burnt out on anything serious/full time at the moment so looking forward to something fun and a little different.

Had a couple games. On the winning team both times. Both were close, first by 8 tickers and second by 31. Not sure if that was just coincidence or if it's by design. Runs better on this rig than BF1 did. Originally I thought the lack of enemy position reveal on death would make it a camper's paradise but so far so good. I was playing support (as usual) on Arras and our entire team got wrecked attacking a point in an open field. I went prone in a bush and took out 4 or 5 and had another few pinned down until the rest of my team finally rocked up and steam rolled the position. All the while nobody knew where I was suppressing them from.
Will milk every minute out of the 10 hour trial but at this stage I think I might cough up a purchase.

It's by design (the scoring) and every game I've played has been quite close so far, one down to 4 tickets left.
I've started with Assault and am liking the 2nd weapon but finding it hard to score points compared to what I had in BF1 where I mained a medic. I don't think I'm attack minded enough to really cash in on the class. Probably switch to medic soon enough lol

I heard something about the scoring during the beta. How does the scoring work then? Is it weighted in the trailing team’s favour? Funnily on each win we were losing early on. The first game by 50+ tickets.
I’ll give the other classes a go. Had a quick go with assault but the playstyle just doesn’t suit me. I think I saw it had some anti-armour gear though so I’ll have to give it a go because I traditionally bounced between support and engineer classes. I suck too much to be right up front which is why I stay away from assault classes usually and pick something that allows me to help my team from a step back.

Yeah Assault starts with RPG + C4 type bombs so very handy for anti-tank.
Scoring was changed in BF1 where holding flags were more important (the more you control the more points you get, kills meant nothing) and while it did push PTFO it also made it near on impossible for teams to come back when behind. Because it wasn't about having a majority of flags, you got points for controlling flags full stop
Now it's back to the old system where kills count and in order to get points bleed you need to hold the majority of flags, not just one or two.

That makes sense because BF1 games were more often than not blow outs.
Have you tried any of the other game modes yet? I just had a couple games of Conquest assuming that would be the most popular. Would love to see if any Grand Operations are going later, they were always my favourite before. Just about to have some dinner then will watch the soccer but will be on after that.

I just browsed servers and the only aussie ones were about 8 conquest 3 grand operations and 1 other gamemode I couldn't remember. Everything else was overseas.
Will try some later but love me some conquest so probably wont stray to far from there

So good to fear the skies again. In BF1 they didn’t concern me at all but already I’ve been smashed a few times by them and seen them wiping out points.
Sort of related because I know you’re interested, but one of the three remaining Stukas in the world has been fully restored and flight ready.
