News: If you have wondered how some of the audio is made in DICE’s games, you should check out this video.

Battlefield V is set to be released next month from EA and DICE. Before that happens though you can take a look at a “Dev Talk” that has just been released dealing with how the team at DICE brings such authentic sounds to their games.

In the video, UX Designer Nathalie Ek interviews Senior Audio Director, Bence Pajor and Lead Sound Designer, Andreas Almstrom about the unconventional ways the team recorded audio to make the loud sound of the V1 rocket penetrate more clearly than ever. In addition, you can see various other clips of DICE recording their lifelike sounds, by detonating an explosive in a pond, firing off rounds in a field and more.

To reward fans for their patience leading up to the launch of Battlefield V, GM of EA DICE Oskar Gabrielson posted a personal video to his social media accounts thanking fans and revealing a special set of items available for players.

With the OSCAR MIKE GIFT, (the name taken from military radio jargon used on the front lines, which translates to “On the Move”) any player who logs into the game within the first week of release will find the following bonus items in their shipments when they visit the Armory:

OSCAR MIKE HELMET – Headgear for the Allied faction that players will be able to equip on any of their Allied soldiers.

OSCAR MIKE EMBLEM – A collectible emblem that players can equip and then show up on their Company Tanks, Planes and Weapons during gameplay.

Take a look at the video below and tell us what you think. Will you be picking up Battlefield V when it launches next month?
