Post by: Helios on June 29, 2015, 02:46:12 PM
So i got an email saying that i was invited to play the SWBF Pre-Alpha! Check your Origin assosciated emails, they're sending out the invites to select people with an Origin account. (I attached what the game cover will look like for the Pre-Alpha, and what the email looks like). I am so excited and i hope you all get the chance to play the Pre-Alpha too!!

It is select people only! I tried signing up when I heard about this last week, and they declined my application.

Congrats fellas!  :fist:

I never get into any kind of Alpha (as hard as I try) so you'll have to tell us all how that goes, when you're able. Dying from excitement all over again!

I've got a feeling the Beta will be a bit more accepting.

So, if you can talk about it to other people (Im unsure of rules) could you answer some of my questions?

1.  I didn't think it would feel like any of the previous Battlefronts, does it feel like the old ones?  If so, does it feel more like 1 or 2?

2. What games does it most feel like, COD, Battlefield or previous SWBFs?

3. Rolling isn't included so far, is it?

4. Is it fun? Worth the price?

Also, if we're allowed to know, what customization options are available? What guns can you use?

I'm sure you're allowed to talk about but I know you're not allowed to upload any videos. I remember back when battlefield 3 alpha was out EA started taking the videos off youtube. I got invited to this alpha also so when I get to play I'll share my opinion on the game here, but the game will feel like Battlefield. The game basically has the same mechanics in fact I think its running on the same engine as Battlefield 4 just more updated version and that's not much of a surprise because it's made by the same company.

Oh yeah, it's definitely running on the Frostbite 3 engine. I play Battlefield 4 enough to say that they both already look very similar.
On the other hand, the gameplay trailers make Frostbite 3 look like it has been updated, but I doubt it's a new engine (Frostbite 4) because DICE would've announced something huge like that.
And on a final hand, I haven't played the game yet. So I could be completely wrong. But I don't believe I am at all.
