Stick around at the end of the livestream and you'll be automatically redirected to the trailer premiere.

Reveal stream starts at 4pm -


I'm finding it hard to get excited about the next game in a series that I used to love; I thought BF5 was bloody awful :(

Haven’t gave a solitary toss since they moved it into the past. Modern day, with decent servers, I’d probably be back in. Played a crazy amount of 2 & 4.

Played loads of 3 and 4, and the games before that. Kids came after 4 (not related to the downturn in DiCE output!) and so I haven’t really been back, though I briefly tried V.

I could be tempted back, especially if we get a GRCade team.

I wonder if there will be footage from jackfrags et al after the release of the trailer. There is no way that they haven't been part of the testing. I have heard on the rumour mill (so 99.999999999999% bs) there is possibly an open play test next month.

I did hear that one of the maps is Damavand Peak like with a large base jump.

That tank looks like a Leopard 2 to me.

145k people waiting for the 1 hour countdown to the reveal to start. If it is a countdown timer and not talking heads I will be disappointed.

Edit: Jumped to 162k

Edit: jumped 100k, I think people may be a bit excited for this.

Straight up a countdown timer. Least they could do was have a few people who have been working on it. Actually no, I am wrong, the least you could do is a countdown timer.

I've seen people in the chat excited that they might be able to watch the trailer earlier than others because they put the video speed x2. Uh, no. That's definitely not how that works. There's a reason it'll redirect you at the end to the proper premiere. Couldn't be bothered keeping the countdown active, so swapped to where the trailer's actually going to be shown.

As someone who has only played a small amount of BF games in the last few years, I just get confused with the Battlefield naming convention now. Genuinely don’t know if 1 or V is the current game? And now this is just ‘Battlefield’?

It’s like CoD where Black Ops, Modern Warfare, etc exist. I’ve no idea which came out earlier or later

BF5 is the current one. BF1 was an attempt to reboot the lot and it failed so hard.

I'm not sure about customising on the fly. Seems like it could be a pretty OP option, same goes for getting rid of the classes. Maybe I'm too old school.

I heard BF1 was pretty popular actually.

We should migrate GRcade to Flarum. :toot:

Well... That sure was a trailer. Good look at the locations we'll be fighting at, and now we've just got to wait until the 13th to see some gameplay.

I'm sure the song is familiar but I can't quite put a name on it.

BF1 lacked the feel of the other games, it didn't do anything for me at all. The gun play was really hit an miss, the maps felt poorly designed. The vehicles were kind of fun.
