Battlefield 1

Looks good..hopefully better than SW Battlefront.

Battlefront was ok, lacked content though. The season pass has definitely made an improvement on the original game but I am not paying that much for a season pass so will wait for it to drop in price or just play with what I have.

Dogs leave stuff on the pavement that's better than SW Battlefront....


As for BF1, so far my concerns have been realised Great game for snipers and vehicle-hoggers, not very good for those that like to run and gun.

But hey, the alpha is stable....

Apparently the open beta for Battlefield 1 in starting on August 31st

To play the open beta you need to have an Origin account, and sign up for the Battlefield Insider programme here:

https://www.battlefield.com/community/insider

Once signed up you can select your preferred platform of PC, Xbox One or Playstation 4.

There's a new Gamescon trailer that's just been released, in case anyone missed it:

Yup - signed up. Chose PC for the beta

I'm going to signup to the battlefield insider on a 2nd email account which i use for these sort of scenarios.

This game, while nice and fluffy, will not be able to hold a candle to the mighty Verdun.

[MrJim]

The Battlefield 1 Open Beta is now available for those who signed up as a 'Battlefield Insider' on PC, Xbox One and Playstation 4. For everyone else it's available from tomorrow.

It's a lot of fun to play, but I've been having lots of crashes, which I suspect are video-driver related. Is anyone else having issues?

[Jonj1611]

No issues here, well apart from one, I keep getting shot.

Other than that enjoying it, high framerates and no glitches(so far).

Yeah, I have the problem of getting shot quite a bit too!

Is anyone else using an Nvidia 10 series graphics card? I'm on a 1070 and I keep getting low memory & DirectX errors I've tried turning settings right down, but still getting crashes. Bit annoying really.

[Jonj1611]

Hmm haven't seen anything like that myself, I know they said DirectX 12 was experimental so if thats on maybe turn it off but other than that its been pretty smooth so far. Hopefully someone with a newer card will be able to comment on your experience though.

No Crashes from me on a 980ti.
Shocking bad hitreg though. emptied a pistol twice into a prone target from a range of 2 feet. No hits.

[Jonj1611]

Well I unloaded a Thompson and had the same effect. Though the sniper rifle is deadly accurate

[shaithis]

Time to check again and see if the game has veered away from being a snipe-fest between alpha and beta....

[Phage]

Still a snipe fest, albeit now with added tank-whoring
