Battlefield V - Free update Chapter 2 will last 2 months

Chapter 2: Battlefield's Lightning Strike V lasts up to 2 months instead of just a month like the First Chapter, and one of its contents is Battle Royale Firestorm mode.



Yesterday, January 15, 2019, Battlefield V officially released a free update called Chapter 2: Lightning Strike with a capacity of over 4 GB. Launched simultaneously on both PC, Xbox One and PS4, this update gives the game new game modes, new weapons and more for this FPS game. However, all these contents will not be released at the same time, but scattered from now until March 2019.

Although the trailer mentioned many different game modes in Chapter 2 of Battlefield V, most of them will appear only in the future, scattered from a few days to months 2. This trailer also reminds gamers. that Battle Royale mode called Firestorm will only be released in March by showing off a ... plow that gamers can drive while playing Firestorm.

Therefore, the only new game mode updated in Chapter 2 of Battlefield V at the moment is the Squad Conquest, a different experience and "subtle" than Battlefield V's 32 vs 32 battlefields before. In the Squad Conquest, there will be only a maximum of 16 players divided into two opposing teams, and each team consists of only 8 players divided into 2 teams of 4 people. The goal of the player is to take 3 flags on the map, similar to the traditional Conquest and shoot down the opponent to consume their revival times.

As the number of players decreases, the contribution of each player will become much more important. DICE said that with this mode, they wanted to create a more stressful version of Conquest and put more strategic elements. Currently, gamers can only play Squad Conquest in smaller versions of Arras, Rotterdam and Hamada maps.

Many types of weapons that are slightly weak or too strong have been rebalanced in Chapter 2, such as the M1928A1 (nerf) or StG44, Suomi Kp / -31 (buff). The SMGs are also becoming more accurate when they are installed Enhanced Grips, Sling, Swivels Specializations. Some new weapons are added to the game for character classes:

Submachine Zk-383 for Medic class. Semi-automatic school model Modele 1944 for Assault M1922 Middle-class machines for Support To unlock these weapons, players need to complete weekly challenges (Weekly Challenges) in January and May. 2.

One of the two new cars added to Battlefield V is the familiar German Stug. The Allies also received Archer - a British designed self-propelled antitank gun. This car has a fixed gun barrel and is placed on the tail, so players will have to stop the car, turn 180 degrees to watch the enemy. Honestly, Mo thought that the French should have used this type of car.

In addition, the captains can call for two new types of weapons, the Sector Artillery, capable of flattening an area, and Smoke Barrage - a series of smoke bullets fired from guns that promise to be extremely useful. those of the faction attack in Breakthrough mode. They increase Battlefield V's tactical options, exactly as both gamers and DICE want to see.

Balance the game


Types of motorized vehicles in the game have a lot of changes in this update. On the ground, the German Halftrack cars are weaker, these vehicles can be 1-shot all aircraft. The machine guns mounted on the vehicles were heavily buffed for range, and reconfigured damage - heavily buffed German weapons, British weapons received only a little due to their inherent power. The tank gun of this tank is also more dangerous with infantry because the infantry is no longer reduced by 25% when lying on the ground as before, except for a few rare cases.

In the air, the BK37 cannon on Stuka aircraft deals higher damage but with reduced damage, its ammunition (and all other aircraft) increases from 150 to 200. Rocket reload time and The bomb dropped from 30 seconds to 15 seconds and 20 seconds respectively, encouraging gamers to use the aircraft and destroy the battlefield below. Finally, the biggest and most noticeable change for Stuka aircraft is that DICE makes its horn loud and more threatening.
But perhaps with a player who likes to support Support like Rat, the most exciting change is that the grenades and anti-tank weapons no longer destroy sandbags as quickly as before. This helps Support not to be miserable to build fortifications and to be destroyed by a "stray" grenade.

The character's ability to move has some noticeable improvements. The tilting feature which is performed by pressing the aiming button at the edge of the obstacle will now be defined and executed faster by the game. The footsteps of gamers will change according to terrain such as soil, stone bricks or steel. The sound comes when the character stands or runs, but it is smaller when sitting and crawling to allow the cunning hands to sneak an opponent more easily.

A few small changes about how gamers… are introduced. DICE will display the name of the person who shot you down, and the camera will follow him for a short time. This is done to help gamers know how the enemy defeated him and from where, especially in situations of sniper or ambush. The icons indicate the direction of the bullets (Damage Indicator, the red streaks in the middle of the screen) are also tweaked to be more accurate and timely, rather than a bit late and only deflected as before.
