Battlefield 4 and 1 are some of my favourite modern shooter games but I can’t justify buying 6. First of all it can’t run on Linux so I’d have to buy it on PlayStation but also I’ve heard very mixed things. It’s disappointing, I really wanted to have another Battlefield 4 experience again.
The games doing very well with new players but getting mixed reviews from longtime BF fans.
I installed Windows again on a 2nd SSD just to play the beta and honestly wasn’t impressed… undeniably an improvement over 2042, But what’s the point in settling for better then dogshit when I can still play the peak of the franchise? and play them on Linux!
From the trailers it honestly looked really cool, but then I saw and heard about the all draconian user-disrespecting stuff like the online-even-for-campaign requirement and highly invasive kernel level anticheat that requires TPM 2.0?! That part felt bonkers to me.
Like is that gonna be a thing now? “This game demands to register a cryptographic key with your bootloader to make sure you’re not up to funnybusiness.” (I’m not 100% sure how it works, so my ignorance is filled in with LOTS of suspicion…)
Also EA just got bought by like…Saudi private equity? That’s pretty spook to me, too.
I dunno. I just wanna play Titans on Battlefield 2142 again. And BF 3 and 4 were nice too…
Also a Linux gamer. (Shrug)
Don’t wanna be a downer or scare you off too much! Just things to consider, because £60 certainly ain’t chump change! :)
