Why Battlefield V Is Named With A Roman Numeral

Can't wait. Wasn't really impressed with the trailer, but more to come at E3.

Its simple. That's cause.....

"V has come to"....

The V stands for Valuetransactions lol...

Ok I'll close the door on my way out.....

@og_gamerzzz: Are you kidding me? I'm an X soldier. Just retired from the 101st a couple years ago. Last I checked 101st Airborne Troopers jumped into battle with just very that. Mowhawks and face paint. Even notorious pictures of it on the net. Don't talk about what you clearly have no idea of. How do you know what the resistance fighters wore if you never done your god damn research?

What I think is that people like your self are just whining little dirtbags hating on this because you see an opportunity to hate on SJW. But you literally are here lying on the god damn net about history you know nothing about. Do your research or stfu bro.

Mgs already did this.

Well Churchill Was a well known FreeMason so I'm just gonna go out on a limb and say the V is representative of the Square and Compass. Just frat bs pay it no mind.

Well this is completely from the point of view of a non fanboy of either BF or CoD. I just play them casually for their unique gameplay styles.

I dont get whats up with all the hate for this game. I agree the trailer looks pretty bad considering the quality trailers they published for previous entries, especially BF3. As it seems EA is trying to make money out of in-game cosmetic items, it still does not bother me. As far as I am concerned if the base game does not have any of those & it feels authentic WW2, I would still buy it. I know I am not going to spend my $$ on silly cosmetics.

BTW no matter how bad the trailer is, the graphics and gameplay looks litt. So people who have money only for the base game, rejoice as you will be able to get good WW2 experience, hopefully. And people who have lot of money to buy in-game stuff, well to each our own i guess.

Also I hate Cod for taking away SP. No matter how bad IW was, its SP was good and worth giving a try.

Hopefully this post helps someone out there. :)

Well, whatever it is, it's not WW2. It's some steampunk alternate reality game. But a sincere question i have, is they're up to like 350k dislikes on the You Tube trailer at roughly 8 million views. Infinite Warfail was only at 180k dislikes at 7 mil views.

I guess i'm just wondering if this can beat Infinite Warfail as most disliked trailer?

EA, Dice, Do we have to go thru the roman numerals with you guys again?

Annnnd that's the cringeworthy EA we all know and love.

They are trying oh so very hard.

"Hay guys it's 'V' and not '5' for super duper important reasons. "

If you want inclusion in a shooter its probably best if you stick to the modern setting where women can be found across all branches of the military in combat roles.

*Looks at Youtube trailer and sees dislike bar greatly outnumbering the likes*

Ahh I get it now. EA and DICE are in full damage-control mode. You can't thump your chest and claim to be immersive and historically accurate only to throw that all away and call your fan base sexist, misogynist, racists for your historical inaccuracies that ruin the immersion.

Much like Star Wars, I can actually survive without Battlefield.

Wow, surprised to see them suddenly pushing the historical accuracy now that they pretty much through it out the window. I have no problem playing as a woman ina game like this. But I do when it’s a game in a series that use to be seen as one of the more realistic shooters that kept things pretty historically accurate looking. Such as in battlefield Vietnam. If you were on the Vietcong side, then it was naturally expected that your character was a Vietnamese soldier. I though Battlefield 1 did a fine job of including diversity within the confines of history by including the Harlem Hellfighters and Russian women snipers. I wouldn’t have any problem with this if they simply made it a modern setting. It just looks weird to have all of this and claim it’s a WWII shooter.

Rolling my eyes here.

And I thought it was because V was the Roman numeral for 5. Mind blown.

Game launches 19th October

No wait, you can start playing early on the 16th.

No wait, you can play even earlier than that on the 11th.

Clocks that use Roman numerals typically use IIII instead of IV.

I think it's ironic that they are ising Churchill to promote a WWII game with women in it when he was such an opponent to women on the battlefield.

The idea of women entering the line of battle and fighting in war is revolting to us. The whole civilisation of the western world is based upon the traditions of chivalry which have come down from medieval times and still exert a potent force.”

In other words, V-Virtual Lootboxes will be available.
