The developer is inserting larger emphasis on customisation this time round, and although soldier and weapon customisation will probably be attainable at launch, the identical characteristic will probably be turned on for automobiles at a later time.
It now seems one other characteristic the developer has been teasing since the Battlefield 5 reveal, will too miss the October launch. That being the power to tug teammates into cowl.
The writing was form of on the wall since we realized it gained’t be within the open beta. The characteristic additionally wasn’t in both of the closed alpha builds.
Multiplayer producer at DICE David Sirland was requested on Twitter concerning the capacity to tug teammates’ our bodies, and confirmed that it’s nonetheless being developed. Bullet penetration, one other characteristic that’s been absent from the alpha, will probably be within the open beta construct.
Yes in improvement. And bullet penetration is within the construct. It’s not setup in every single place appropriately but (there are some recognized minor points in open beta too) – we wish suggestions on that too, if one thing feels prefer it ought to be penetrable however its not.

Absolutely, we have now many issues that we’re going to proceed so as to add to or develop submit launch, extra information on that quickly!

This affirmation left gamers anxious, and a few worry Battlefield 5 will undergo an identical destiny to Star Wars: Battlefront 2. Although DICE promised common post-launch content material updates for Battlefront 2, the game bought little or no so far as new content material, which followers assumed was the results of its lower-than-expected efficiency.
To his credit score, Sirland stated that this gained’t occur with Battlefield 5, and gave the instance of Battlefield 4’s post-launch help, which went on for years submit launch and has been the most effective for any Battlefield game earlier than or since.
Did this occur with Bf4 and that launch? No, will not occur this time both (irregardless of financial mannequin / premium). BF isn’t the identical franchise, not a license primarily based one and that is what, quantity 15 within the operating? Chill.
