EA Play is June 9 - 12 I believe. We'll be there on the 9th/10th.

My brother and I still play BF4 whenever we have some free time. It’s just good. That’s about all I can say. The only thing I will say bad about BF4 is the amount of devices and gadgets is out of control. I can’t imagine having to balance the meta.

My beef is the random loot boxes, or whatever they call them. I guess there are certain grips and scopes you earn for weapons as you progress them, but it seems like there is no rhyme or reason of what I'll unlock with them. Hey, a scope for a gun I've never used. Sweet.

Imagine playing operations on Omaha Beach or The Battle of Kursk. I think it was appropriate to bring a WW2 game to life with the frostbite engine.

I'm okay with this also (even though I loved BF Vietnam and was really excited it might be an option).

Where I think they should go is
WWII
A combination of Cold War ie. Korea and Vietnam. DLCs could be the tiny skirmishs
War on Terror
Slightly futurist (against China or something)

He's roughly as funny as under cooked chicken, which is still a tad funnier than Samantha Bee or Amy Schumer.

It's kind of tongue in cheek, but interesting. There was an easter egg in a BF1 map with a painting of a white horse. Thick44, by means of an Ozzy Ozzborne song ("Mr. Crowley, won't you ride my white horse.."), links the white horse to Aleister Crowley.

quote:

When the Second World War broke out, Crowley wrote to the Naval Intelligence Division offering his services, but they declined. He associated with a variety of figures in Britain's intelligence community at the time, including Dennis Wheatley, Roald Dahl, Ian Fleming, and Maxwell Knight, and claimed to have been behind the "V for Victory" sign first used by the BBC;



Battlefield "V"

Thick also states that the guy behind the BF easter eggs is a big Ozzy fan (unproven).

If it is a WWII game, for the life of me I can't figure out how a white horse fits in. I'll subscribe to this theory.

Another theory floated in the video was that the battle of white horse was in the Korean War.

The best part of this is Trevor Noah is hosting it.

Lol. Noah is terrible. Daily Show should have pulled the plug after Stewart, who was actually funny, left.

Regardless, I'll be happy if BF5 is either in Vietnam or WWII. I'll get it for PC regardless. The only BF game I've been disappointed in so far was Hardline.
