Shouldn't it be called Battlefield II then?
This naming scheme went full retard.
The naming kind of makes sense... kind of. Originally there was Battlefield 2, 3, and 4 so it made sense to name the last game 1 since it matched up with WWI and they had skipped that number anyway. And it works to name this game 5 as the next entry in the series. I think they went with the roman numeral since it isn't a direct sequel to the modern games (2/3/4).
Battlefield and Call of Duty are both shit.
How come?

Whatever Bin Laden.
We’ve been killing German’s, Japanese, Russians, Arabs for decades. Don’t you think it Wouk day be fair to Switch a side’s for once?
I mean, it’s not like Muricans are always the good guys.
Battlefield V: Loot box Edition.
Awesome. Battlefield 1 was amazing and I loved it's setting. I hope this is true as I don't want a modern battlefield.
Battlefield 1 was 1 of the best games during the past years i liked it mor then halo 5 so im very interested in a bf with ww2 settings
It’s gonna a just like every battlefield game ever made, no thanks
Can i play as Franklin, Trevor and Michael?
another WW2 game?
I am not surprised at this, especially after CoD received a great reception.
The problem with cod wwII for me was that it played like a futuristic cod and that there where no progress in physics or game modes
First they make a Battlefield game set on WWI and call it Battlefield One, but now they're making one set on WWII and calling it Battlefield V? So this new game is part of the main series but One is not?
Wow, a popular FPS franchise going back to its WWII roots! Not like I've seen that happen few months ago...
And we can all see what is happening here. They all start out in WW1 and WW2, progress to the point where you're futuristic idiots with jetpacks, gamers complain, then they go back and start again etc.
Has it crossed anyone‘s mind, that the V in Battlefield V stands for Victory?! Illuminati confirmed
Battlefield:Call of Duty.
Bad decision in my opinion, we don't need another old styled world war game, both Battlefield and Call of Duty have done one, I think both companies are missing the point.
Everyone over the last few years has been asking for "boots on the ground" nobody was asking necessarily for that to mean we only want to play WW1 and WW2 games.
Going to skip this one for sure..
