Battlefield V
One of the ways thatBattlefield Vwill look to distance itself from past plot is via a newfangled focus on customization through what ’s calledThe Companysystem . Some of thedifferent looksthat players can use were distinguish in the secret plan ’s reveal trailer last month , and fan feedback was mixed . While almost everyone tally that customization was respectable in theory , some were n’t a sports fan with how some of the gear did n’t look historically appropriate . Screen Rant was able to exclusively talk with DICE Senior Producer Lars Gustavsson , and we require him about the customization argument .
Character customization is n’t the only move to makeBattlefield Vfeel like a new epoch for the first - individual shooter serial . DICE has announced that they ’ll be adding abattle royale modeto the torpedo , and it will have a four player cooperative mode called Combined Arms . Additionally , it will be the serial ' first effort at being a live service that will evolve over time with new subject matter and biz style .

" In general , I think , we ’ve define pretty strict kind of art direction and , sort of , management for what is satisfactory and believable in this cosmos , " explained Gustavsson in an exclusive interview with Screen Rant . " We would n’t want to go over the top . We want to look at everything we have in there as : could this have occurred in this era ? You know , to stay true to this kind ofreality . " The longtime manufacturer at DICE also understood why some fan were critical about what they saw , but says that fans are n’t seeing the full word picture . “So , we ’re attempt to take the air that dividing line , but I think , people reacted on the reveal laggard - but that was almost like a condensed soup where we ’re attempt to cram in everything . "
Customization is always a tricky subject in plot , and developers always have to choose between going all out by allowing player to apply unbalanced costume or restrict them to more appropriate gear . ClearlyBattlefield Vis going in the latter direction , which seems like the proper move considering the historical tragedy that World War II is . WithThe Companysystem , player can customize their four soldiers per side ( one for each form , times by two for each side of the battle ) alongside their weapon and vehicles . say about it here .
After all , a more nuanced approach is surely better than having soldiers with Mary Jane - themed paraphernalia like inCall of Duty . It simply would n’t be appropriate considering the subject subject , and the Second World War deserves to be treated with some tact if it ’s pass to be used as the setting for a video game . It seems that DICE and Electronic Arts realize that and wo n’t be get under one’s skin as farcical as some of their shot similitude .
