![]() No wonder the gaming community is in such a bad place when immature and deeply offensive statements such as these (and even worse) are shared by YouTubers and streamers with well over 1 million followers, poisoning the minds of thousands of young men with their Andrew Tate-esque misogynistic drivel. “DICE including women betrays their fanbase by pandering to politically correct social justice warriors who are pushing for women to be treated as equals”.“Gamers are unhappy being told that women are equal and are rightfully upset”.“We don’t play battlefield to be told that women are equal”.“It wouldn’t be so bad if she was sexy.”.“DICE should stop telling us that women are equal and show us” - This was said in reaction to a trailer that showed female characters fighting alongside male characters.“DICE are trying to push that women are equal down our throats, and we are not happy”.“Why is there a female cripple in the trailer?”.“Why do we need some chick with a claw?”.While I could go into detail about why this reaction was so appalling, I will instead list just a few examples of criticism from Youtubers who were adamant they were not sexist/ableist and let you decide for yourself. Image credit Battlefield V - Published by Electronic Arts and developed by Dice. PLEASE, we are talking about a game where people perform no-scope 360s while riding on their friend’s shoulders the Battlefield franchise has never been about strict authenticity and pretending it was, just to hide the fact many gamers resented DICE taking steps towards being more inclusive is appalling. While some incels let their hatred flow like water, others tried to at least disguise their rampant misogyny by carefully phrasing their disapproval in the wrapper of historical accuracy. ![]() Controversy.īattlefield V is one of the most controversial titles in the history of the franchise, and while it did not receive as much hate as Battlefield 2042, unlike Battlefield 2042, it had done nothing to deserve such hatred, with the vast majority of bad press centring around the inclusion of a female character with a visible disability. The new release date for the game is November 20th, which is still great news as that means that the title will be released before the holidays and that there will be more time for developers to iron out whatever kinks are in the game.Battlefield V, despite being over 3 years old has a larger playerbase than many AAA titles released in 2022, something which is made all the more remarkable when you remember its contraversal launch and less than stellar critical reception. This had the first-person shooter going up against genre revival Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 and Rockstar Games’ Red Dead Redemption 2, but this is no longer the case. A game that will deliver on an emotional journey through the return of unseen single player War Stories, a deep multiplayer experience, Battle Royale, along with our new live service, Tides of War – a journey across multiple theaters of WW2 and designed to keep our community together.”īattlefield V was originally planned to release on October 16th for deluxe Edition purchasers and October 19th for those who purchased the game’s standard edition. The General Manager added, “We believe we have one of the best Battlefield games ever on our hands. They also mentioned that those very same changes will be reflected in the Open Beta on September 6th. The beta feedback was overwhelming and the team immediately went to work on fixes, improvements, and tweaks to beloved ideas.
