Dice Rolls Back Battlefield V’s Recent Time To Kill Update

Battlefield V continues to catch flak as Dice has rolled back on their initial ‘Time to Kill’ adjustment issued only less than a week ago. The recent update was supposed to provide newer Battlefield players an edge by increasing the amount of damage needed before meeting their end.

However, the update was not received well by the veteran Battlefield player base, and they let Dice know about it.

In a letter to the community on Reddit, the developers of Battlefield V acknowledged the bitter reception of the update that lengthened the time to kill (TTK) when playing online. They claim that the update was in part of a decision that they’d hoped would allow amateur players to feel more comfortable sticking with the Battlefield experience, as they’ve stated it’s become “a challenge bringing new players into Battlefield V”.

The update that appeared last week allowed players to take more damage allowing new players to die off less frequently, in turn keeping both new and old Battlefield players engaged in the experience for longer. This move backfired quickly, creating a backlash from the veteran community — who never asked for the update in the first place.

“Clearly we didn’t get it right. Veteran players didn’t ask for the change, but as game developers, we took it upon ourselves to make those changes based on extensive data and deliberation. It truthfully wasn’t an easy decision for us.” – The Battlefield Team

Battlefield V has recently been under fire for it’s rather obtuse launch schedule where a flurry of game modes and updates (including their own take on battle royale mode) known as the Tides of War will be rolled out within the coming months after the initial release date. The game will consistently received new features added to the experience at no additional cost to the player, but the unorthodox approach to releasing the full game has been leaving much of the community with a bitter taste in their mouth.

Battlefield V is available now for the PS4, Xbox One and PC — while the upcoming battle royal mode, Firestorm, isn’t set to arrive until March, 2019.

On October 25, 2023, THQ Nordic’s Alone in the Dark reboot will star Killing Eve’s Jodie Comer and Stranger Things’ David Harbour. Comer will play Emily Hartwood, while Harbour will play Edward Carnaby.

The demo, loosely based on the 1992 original, is available for download from the PS Store. This prologue, starring supporting character Grace Saunders, is inspired by Alone in the Dark 2’s Jack in the Dark demo and allows you to explore the Derceto Mansion.

The showcase didn’t focus on combat, but previous showings have shown a frantic over-the-shoulder shooter, and developer Pieces Interactive promises a variety of puzzles. Depending on how much guidance you want, you can adjust the difficulty.

We’re excited about the final product. Alone in the Dark hasn’t been respected in recent years, despite its huge influence. A compelling reboot that updates the 1992 classic looks to put the franchise back on track.

PlayStation’s strategy gaming renaissance makes us feel like we’re living in the best possible time for console gamers who love command. Realms of Ruin could be a cool addition if it succeeds. As fans know, Warhammer games are unfortunately inconsistent in quality, so we’ll reserve judgment until we see some gameplay.

Only eFootball was more universally hated. Balan Wonderworld and Babylon’s Fall are other villains in that awful rogue’s gallery.
