With the NDA having lifted and Battlefield 1 video coverage now pouring in across YouTube and Twitch, those lucky enough to have been selected to play in the closed alpha are wasting no time in showing off every new feature found in DICE’s latest Battlefield title.

We’d recommend trying out 74 (Hor+ 90), which is the sweet spot for many.
