Battlefield V: Zahlreiche Informationen zum Battle Royale Spielmodus “Firestorm” geleakt

General info and game mode start

• three variants: solo, duo (2 player teams), squad (4 player teams) with a player maximum of 64 per match
• typical Battlefield classes will be present / choosable (snippet: ui/shared/widgets/classinforenderwidget)
• code shows signs of an LFG system and „backfilling“ entries
• will have a separate ranking system
• will (probably) occur in Tides of War – at least the code for a connection is already there
• takes place in Norway (snippet: „/sparta/casablanca/royale/dk_norway-bd00e4f9.png“ – also the level name itself contains the word „norway“)
• you parachute from a plane into the war zone (snippet: Paradrop_Exit)
• your hud will show an altimeter during the free fall / flight (snippet: ui/ingame/hud/widgets/parachutealtimeter)

Gameplay

• if you get shot by an enemy you enter a „downed“ state where you can crawl (but probably not fight) (snippet: DownedState_Crawl_LEFT_3)
• there are various hints to a 3rd person camera angle but they are always tacked to the parachute start or when you get downed / killed
• you have an inventory where you can store loot you find (snippet: UI/Ingame/Hud/Minimap/Inventroy – btw the typo is directly taken from the code)
• loot has four types of „rarity“ (snippet: ui/rarityselection; UI/s/HUD/Loot/RarityOne, UI/s/HUD/Loot/RarityTwo, …)
• you can find better backpacks (three tiers) to extend your inventory
• the map features safes that can be opened (this will be tracked in your stats) (snippet: safesOpened: w(t.royale.safesOpened, 0))
• there are dynamic objectives on the map which you can capture (e.g. „resupply points“ as mentioned later)
• dynamic objectives may also be connected to „lockups“ / „vehicle breakouts“ mentioned in the code (snippet: w(t.royale.vehicleBreakoutsOpened, 0))

Weapons

• weapons will categorized in tiers (1-4 can be found, 0 may be some kind of start equipment)
• the HUD can feature six types of ammo: LMG, Pistol, Rifle, Shotgun, SMG and Sniper (snippet: ui/images/hud/ammo/ammo_lmg)
• Weapon Specializations (probably not complete, just the snippets):
• Meta/SpecTree/Primary__Bayonet
• Meta/SpecTree/Primary__Bipod
• Meta/SpecTree/Primary__DetachableMag
• Meta/SpecTree/Primary__ExtendedMag
• Meta/SpecTree/Primary__FastBullets
• Meta/SpecTree/Primary__HeavyLoad
• Meta/SpecTree/Primary__IncendiBullets
• Meta/SpecTree/Primary__QuickADS
• Meta/SpecTree/Primary__Slug

Healing and Armor

• you can find / use bandages and medic bags (small and large) (snippet: s/Meta/Gadget/Medical_Supplies_smallmedpack)
• healing probably takes some time (snippet: MedicBag_Apply_Sequence)
• there are three named tiers of armor vests (snippet: UI/Textures/Icons/HudArmourVestTier1, …)
• there is a kind of special „armor plate“ without any tiers (sounds like very strong armor loot?) (snippet: UI/Textures/Icons/HudArmourPlate)

Vehicles

• various HUD elements give away that vehicles use fuel as a resource and therefore can’t be used without limits (probably for balancing) (snippet: ingame/hud/widgets/fuel; gameplay/schematicchannels/sc_vehiclefuel)
• you can get vehicles by opening „vehicle breakouts“ (probably the stronger ones…tanks?)
• the tiger and the valentine are (until now) the only tanks I could find with a direct connection to Firestorm
• other vehicles: „Halftracknomag“, „Kubelwagen“, „Kettenkra“, „MH101ctor“ (snippet: LaVEH_Halftracknomag)
• one interesting air vehicle snippet: „/Core/Vehicles/Air/VEH_plantuka_AI“ – could be an AI controlled Stuka (plane + stuka = plantuka?) as a reinforcement
• There is a number of „blue prints“ for other vehicles (could be found by opening safes? I don’t know…):
• Helicopter (yep!)
• StaffCar
• SportsCar
• Schimmwagon
• PickUpTruck
• Tractor (probably the famous „MH101ctor“ mentioned above and seen in the mini teaser)

Reinforcements

• you can unlock and call in reinforcements (snippet: /gameplay/reinforcements/reinforcement_unlocks)
• the following are present:
• Artillery Strike (snippet: Meta/Reinforcements/ArtilleryStrike)
• Vehicle (snippet: Meta/Reinforcements/r_vehicle)
• Danger Zone (any ideas?) (snippet: Meta/Reinforcements/r_dangerzone)
• Supply Drop (snippet: Meta/Reinforcements/r_supplydrop)
• Strafing Run (maybe done by the AI controlled Stuka mentioned above) (snippet: Meta/Reinforcements/r_strafingrun)
• V1 Rocket (snippet: Meta/Reinforcements/r_v1rocket)
