Battlefield's Last Chance...

EA is hyping up the next Battlefield game as "another tremendous live service"
Is the franchise facing it's doom or does EA have what it takes to turn things around?

[@javannapoli2018]

Yep, the second I hear specialists or anything adjacent to them, I'm ignoring the game.

Yeah if they want to do something with specialist then make a new game that has nothing to do with battlefield.

[@BourbonBandit-]

@@PrasathMGM I dont see them splitting it like that. That's been a popular idea in the community though so it's possible but not likely

[@Kaztoozs]

The charm of Battlefield was always feeling like the unamed soldier on the front, the immersion of what it would feel like to be a random soldier in these large scale battles. The moment you add 'characters' to these settings, it tarnishes this immersion by removing your ability to project yourself into the battle; instead you are this character in the battle and cognitively are forced into that roleplay instead of one of your own making.

[@Cj-xl3jv]

Yep, I remember my Dad playing support and I played assault in BF4 and it was awesome pushing an objective while I held back to get revives. No stupid ass “specialists” with grappling hooks or wing suits.

One of the biggest issues with Battlefield 2042 is that it wants to be like Call of Duty. Fast phase, wacky skins, One man army type of thing. What made Battlefield 3 and 4 so great was the teamwork, instead of running and gunning I went in as a 2nd player in a tank, repairing if needed. etc. Best of all is that it wasn't Call of Duty. It was Battlefield. Battlefield 2042 felt like a beta for a new Call of Duty.

[@aa-kz7hc]

I want to teamwork but tbh the majority of the community doesn't really want it. the gadgets for teamwork are there but its the players job to actually use them and engage in teamwork which most don't want to do. most people play battlefield like its COD regardless of which battlefield it is. when DICE tried to force teamwork in BFV the youtubers and much of the community complained it about it.

[@clamum9648]

Battlefield, to it's fans, was quite so excellent because of the ways it _differed_ from CoD and other shooters. Emphasis of team/squad/co-op tactical play and of multi-discipline land/sea/air soldiering. Why would someone responsible for Call of Duty and Apex Legends be able to save Battlefield? He will do nothing other than further push BF to be more like kiddy-chaos CoD and the hero shooter and battle royale games, which is in large part what is wrong with BF5 and 2042.

@@Themurseinme Yup. Was disappointed by BF5. Was dumbfounded by them doubling down on the mess with BF2042. I have zero hope BF6 will be anything like Battlefield, since they've gotten worse since BF1. Struggled to get refunds for BF5 and BF2042. Won't be doing it again (and I want to send the message to EA, but I know not enough people will have the moral fortitude to hold out).

I’m already out

[@mastercheif878]

Nah bruh if you didn't learn from 2042 and BF5, idk where you are. BF5 was what should've been the wake-up call

[@Bengan88]

if last chance means no bf at all after bf7 i dont agree. may be last chance to make a great game that makes a good profit.

[@rcook7356]

I am definitely done with a preorder of BF titles, after the last two release debacles, I will wait for the actual release of the game and then reviews to see if it is worth purchasing.

[@freddelarsson4434]

Grew up playing BF 2142 and even BF Vietnam... Yeah it's been that long. And as a long time fan, one of the worst things that they have changed in my opinion is replacing the class system with "Specialists". There is different reasons for that but I think alot of people can agree that the simple combat experience that BF3 and BF4 had was more than enough to make a really enjoyable gaming experience. All these gadgets and random new vehicles doesn't bring much to the table, it's the core combat gameplay that made the Battlefield series so good in the first place. I hope they realize that.

[@kevinmacleod5890]

They knew specialists would kill the game, too. That was the point of doing it.

[@jamescross6109]

@@kevinmacleod5890 No the point was to make money. They want kids saying "Wow look at Mackays new skin! He's the best! Mom I need that skin!" Then they want all the skins...

They should make it cold war era

[@drabent99]

EA has no more chances.

[@AnimeAllas]

I want BF3 All over again with updated graphics and bots! And then Seasoned DLC's Same maps and guns! just do it EA!

[@jamesbarnett4871]

When they start releasing details can you do a comparison to the launch marketing that they did for 2042?

[@lordlobezz1769]

i still cant believe that they ended Battlefront 2 to work on BF2042. they need to get back to the quality of work they were doing from 2013 to 2018.

[@Tuxedo512]

most of those devs that worked on those games are long gone.

[@lordlobezz1769]

@@Tuxedo512 yeah they left because of ea

[@joeyduese6638]

I honestly have 0 faith in battlefield at this point. Id be willing to bet this next game isn't going to be much better at all.

[@NorthKing1]

Honestly, all I need is Bf4 but with modern day graphics and realistic new military weapons and vehicles/ships and aircraft. Along with possibly new additional game modes added to the existing bf4 game modes and new maps, That's really all I'm looking for.

[@chippy2986]

Not only will I not pre-order I'll never spend another $ on the franchise. I moved to HLL and I never had so much fun playing games.

[@heavymeta5691]

Characters in Battlefield’s case belong in singleplayer. Having characters in multiplayer reduces the scale ie older BF games had you play just as a soldier without a background. This made the player feel like they’re fighting in a larger scale war. With characters, battles feel more isolated.

[@ken_in_atx9619]

I'm not overconfident. I'm just better than everyone.

[@Shaggii_]

This gives me PTSD

[@tuckert9563]

i can confidently say i will be waiting for levelcap’s review and possibly jackfrags

[@nb9121]

Remember how good the BF1 prologue was? Where you were a faceless soldier who was not expected to survive, and experienced the brutality of front line combat? Yeah we’re never getting that again are we?

[@dandylion1987]

Not a tremendous GAME, a tremendous LIVE SERVICE. Telling...

[@Mr.Spaghettti]

Imagine if they continued to focus on 'levelution' after Bf4. I feel like we could of got some crazy gameplay enhancements...

[@IceClawz.]

7:13 gotta love those 'Live Cervix' Experiences 🤣

[@bbmonx]

even though i do like 2042, the launch stability really impacted my enjoyment and my framerate 😥

[@Xsaber2000]

Too many dev groups gonna work on the next game i got no hope

[@TheDustmeister88]

Juat wait 2 months after release. Then make a decision.

[@longshot82383]

Just wait until they make it free because they don't have enough player count like they did with 2042 on steam and Xbox...don't give them any money

[@colleenlarson9315]

I totally switched from COD to BF in 2011, it was such a big part of my life and now it’s been 3 years since I’ve abandoned the BF franchise, makes me wonder if I’ll ever have a reason to return to it.

[@mistamef87]

With the ceo saying players want a deeper experience, does he mean that players dont want to be tricked into paying for a game that is 6 months away from being playable?
