Battlefield V Time to Kill and Time to Death Changes Incoming Says DICE, Community Conflicted

If you’ve been playing Battlefield V, then you might have noticed that soldiers drop much faster than before compared to past Battlefield games. While this time-to-kill (TTK) change is welcomed by some, there are those who think that it’s a bit too fast.

Over on Twitter, DICE Core Gameplay Designer Florian Le Bihan confirmed that TTK and time-to-death (TTD) will both be tweaked by DICE.

For those not familiar with the terms, here’s Le Bihan’s explanation of it:

My defintions are:
– TTK is how fast you kill with a certain weapon from the perspective of the shooter
– TTD is how fast you die from the perspective of the victim, this perspective can involve different starting health and multiple damage sources (more than 1 player)

While DICE has confirmed that changes are indeed coming, the community is split on the topic! Over on Reddit, you’ll see threads like the ones below pop up:

Of course, if there was no issue at all from the get-go, DICE wouldn’t even be looking into it at all, right? Is this a case of the vocal community not wanting to change something that the masses want?

Do you think the TTK and the TTD of Battlefield V should be changed? If so, to what extent? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
