    I have no trust in the established triple AAA studios, they just don’t have what it takes to make a good game anymore. When games like Boulders Gate, Palworld, and Helldivers, shows you that a real game can still be made.

      I will also like to add people coming from COD and Halo DO NOT inspire confidence in the creation of a new BF game. Also, if they are still using their fail frostbite engine that they didn’t spend the money to develop the tools necessary to create a fully functional game, then BF will still be shit. I hate being so negative, but that is the reality of it.

    Battlefield just needs to get back to it's roots and quit trying to be a different call of duty. Battlefield 4 dropped with 70 something guns. They also need to get back to the ways levels were built in those earlier Battlefield games with destruction. We don't need tornados. With them going back to 64 players I'm hoping that's their plan. The BR being free is great cause I liked the firestorm map.

Battlefield is not about being a BR or an extraction type game. Its just wasted resources that could be put to a Battlefield game that could bring back the franchise from the brink of it being dead completely.
    Calling it now...........Battlefield BR is going to flop hard. The new main BF game is also going to flop hard like 2042 or harder, articles will come out stating that resources were taken away from main game to make BR and thats why its such a mess, or something along these lines

    Personally would like to see five classes instead of four. Assault, Medic, engineer, Support and Recon, all with weapons and gadgets locked to each class. More dynamics to weapon and character customization, Eg you run slower with a larger weapon or equipping armored plating. Reload times vary depending on what you're doing, fastest reload when stationary, looking around 10% penalty and a penalty that increases the faster you move. Meaning staying behind cover and bunny hopping about the place will have wildly different reload times. I would be fine with keeping 128 players maps as long as they do it right this time, too few objective for the scale of the maps and i felt like they could've added in some bonuses to flags, Eg, capture C1, C2, C3 you gain an AC-130 overhead.

    All I know is the next Battlefield title will need to be on the same level as Battlefield 3, 4 and 1 to gain any of the old fans back, on top of keeping the new ones. It’s a long shot and something I unfortunately don’t think can be accomplished but it’s something I want to see happen.

    I think the main reason the battle royal is so popular is because all of the most popular games are free to play. If we got a game like Og battlefield free to play it would take over and if they put one or two more war or looter shooters type games the gaming atmosphere will change I think most people want that but they just are stuck.

    It's worth mentioning that multiple studios working on a game isn't always a good thing. While yes a lot of devs working on something is good, multiple studios can lead to a lot of communication issues and disagreements. One example is the modern MW3 game which was made between Activision, Sledgehammer, and Infinity Ward. And iirc infinity ward caused a lot of issues for sledgehammer due to lack of communication

    I personally enjoyed Firestorm a lot, it just had so many bugs that were never addressed or that were addressed way too late for the game to succeed. It also wasn't FTP while Fortnite was and was blowing up beyond belief. I also don't think they should go with the whole "Team objective" type Battle Royale, I think it's going to be a massive mistake. Sure they can make that as a side game mode on top of a regular BR game mode but just going with an objective based mode is a bad idea. People want a fast paced, smooth experience, good sound quality and something they can get in and out of and onto the next match.

    Once they tried to be call of duty it was a wrap. There is still no great weapon play in the game. They need to revisit bf3 and build off of that model.

    • @Westie

      BF3 was created as a direct rival to COD. Faster movement, urban maps with CQB combat, faster sprint speed, better weapon customisation, an entire DLC called “Close Quarters” etc. 😁

    • @davidmorrison5186
      @davidmorrison5186 3 місяці тому +1

      But what happened to the weapons? Every weapon felt so distinctive. Plus the bullet suppression effects when you received gun fire are needed back in the game imo (I know people hated it). They need to eliminate all wall hacks imo. I am fine with audio and visual "clues" but these wall hacks suck.

    Tl;dr: let people who played previous titles oversee the games development and leadership.
    I mean right at around the 3:00 mark, all of the people overseeing the game’s development and leadership are just previous run n gun games developers and team leaders, so… are we expecting a failed hybrid again? Why not reviving MoH to have a real answer for CoD and just let people who actually played and ENJOYED older battlefield games (BF1942-BF4, BC and 1943 included) to have a hand in the next title? I always said that I won’t PO another BF game after V but my inner fanboy always got the better of me, and I’m sure a lot of people who got 2042 early felt the same thing.
    Not again, until we see some real changes take into effect

    Firestorm is definitely 100% worth playing more than once me and my squad loved playing firestorm it just lacked content and like you say it was locked behind the paywall. It should have been free i dont know of another world war era battle royal game this was a missed opportunity by the devs in my opinion.

  • @Zantiath

    You miss a couple of key details. Ridgeline Games is closed by EA as well. So not only Letho left, the whole studio is gone. BF 2042 had the same or even more studios working on 1 single game. Worked out great 🤣 and EA used the same wording as they do right now when they were talking about BF 2042, at least if we can believe the wording of handerson here. Back to the roots, love letter to the community, in line of BF 3 and 4 with lots of destruction…. Worked out great as well 😅 i strongly believe that if BF5 was marketed as a Bad Company Ww2 game, that first trailer had a big bad company vibe going on, it would have been a smash hit.

    I was fooled twice. So uh, I think I'll wait on this one. Though to be fair, if this new one that's going to be out next year doesn't go on sale for 17 quid at a tescos I think that would be considered marginally more successful than 2042 was when it launched lol.
    Sucks because 2042 had such good potential and they just...didn't. Game was nowhere near ready on release, and just felt empty. It was weird.

  • @MetaVizions

    Personally I don’t mind the 2042 “Near-Future Combat”. People like SquidDog using wingsuits have really evolved the game to be like a Just Cause game. Which is extremely fun, and I do think the seriousness of military mobilization on objectives was bit lost with more expression.
    Destructive environments made BF.
    I’d also love a BR BF.
    Ultimately we want a BF3/4 remake.
    BattleBit, Arma, Halo, Squad, Insurgency all show we need better games with comms and TEAM PLAY.

  • @majmage
    @majmage Місяць тому

    As a designer, I think mild worrying is reasonable for a leader leaving mid-development. It's mixed for me. I don't care much for singleplayer BF content personally, but I care about multiplayer and overall game health, and having a successful singleplayer campaign bring in a million+ players is actually really important for that.
    'Quit willingly' is one of those things you can't know for sure. But also it's totally irrelevant (from the gamer perspective why should we care what the reason was? All that matters is an important contributor left, which means we would expect at least a little disruption/delay to be caused by that).
    Disappointed about the royale garbage. FFA game modes are for casual kids.
    Also sorta wish we could have a free-to-play core multiplayer experience a bit like Planetside 2's model. I think that's actually the best for both devs and players, but players have this irrational hatred of it and so the safe bet is for BF to stick with the classic b2p model. In fact the safe bet is _probably_ to go all-out nostalgia by also having player-run servers be a feature.
    Thinking about player-run servers does make the designer in me want to empower players without losing the core experience:
    * players connect to "Battle Servers", which are either player-run or Official
    * battle servers connect to a progression server, which is invisible to players except it's where player progression is tracked (unlocking weapons, vehicles, etc)
    * progression servers would _also_ be either the one Official server (permanently tracking your progress) or player-run
    * with player-run Battle Servers, this lets them customize any part of the experience they want: map rotation, weapons, "Hardcore Mode" with high lethality, etc
    * with player-run Progression Servers, they could take that even further by letting players do anything from simple "Everything Unlocked Instantly" to "4x XP" servers to "BF RPG" servers where they literally have a completely distinct tech tree you progress through (ideally letting players add modded weapons to the mix)
    As for destruction, it's fun to hear that's coming back in a bigger way, though honestly I haven't minded 2042. The main draw has always been mixed-infantry/vehicle combat for me, and while destructible buildings enhances that it's not required.

    If they have still Battle Royale in 2025, I am out from the start. That game mode is oversaturated and overused. Give us back proper Battlefield experience.
    BattleBit Remastered shows that there is still NEED for such games. I dropped out of Battlefield 5 when Firestorm update dropped. I hate BR. I am old school gamer tho and BR was not a new concept to me (basically it's Last Man Standing game mode from Unreal Tournament ;p).
