I remember playing the first level and thinking, "wow, this is such a fantastic idea. This campaign will really show me the horrors of war" and then I played Through Mud and Blood and hit such an insane level of disappointment that the mechanic was a one-time thing that to this day I don't like that story even though it's objectively pretty alright compared to the rest.

@@SuperMarcolau well, the point is that those were stories told by survivors, tall tale in most cases. Pilot story is outright making flashback to real events. He killed his copilot and deserted. Crew of Black Bess died and their story is unknown. Old italian is telling a tale about a horrors of war to his daughter and his armor suspiciously becomes impenetrable the moments his daughter starts to worry about his own old man health and he just shrugs everything off and story continues. The story of a female arabic fighter is narrated by Lawrence, not by the character itself... because Lawrence had likely invented her. And so on. Instead of this BF V just turns that into Enemy at the Gates with porn cliches. The Last Tiger is the ONLY one moderately not insulting to actual history and nations involved.

Really great point. This makes a lot of sense of why I thought BF1’s opening was so immersive and emotional. Every time I died as a player I was swapped to someone else, and it really gave it that feeling of “these are real people in a real war with real consequences.”

@Rustojaw5 жыл бұрын
Tbh they removed dlc maps so you won't have that issue now
@rasplez98895 жыл бұрын
@@Rustojaw but that's part of the issue. None of the DLC feel special anymore and you really don't have a reason to play it. You used to play games because they were fun, especially with friends. But now you play games because they give you a swanky camo for your gun and a bonus to your vehicle that lets you kill people 10% faster. But that's not a good reason to continue playing and ensure its replayability. If you don't play it because you enjoy it, then why bother playing in the first place? It's all artificial "progression" where "progression" somehow equates to having fun in a game. But years ago, you never really played games to level up for the necessity of just leveling up. It was a status symbol more than anything. Let's say in 10 years, how many people do you think will still be playing the original battlefront 2, and who will be playing the recent one? When the playerbase dies, content halts, and the servers are shut down? Will you play arcade? Tiny closed off maps with a small amount of dumb bots that is a fraction of the size of a mutiplayer map? At least battlefront HAD an arcade mode; BFV has NOTHING! What, you're going to play war stories? Combined arms? Why bother when battlefield 2 is already on your computer, waiting for you to play it? There's no long term investment in games anymore. They can make the destiny promise of having 10+ years of support, but it's all bullshit to trick players into thinking they actually care about their experience. They don't even bother hiding extortion anymore.

@AtrociousAK475 жыл бұрын
They need to bring back custom 3rd party servers, pistol only matches in 4 were pretty fun (you were killed via server command if you killed with anything not a pistol or melee as a warning), and its the only way to preserve playability when official servers are canned and/ or playercount dwindles, and might also help with not being able to play dlc maps once they are no longer new, although more often you just see "24/7" versions of one or two popular vanilla maps. Having a sandbox type mode like bf 1943's tutorial mode where you can mess with vehicles in addition to guns would be nice too.

The taking less damage when not looking at enemies is actually a really common tactic for shooters, without mechanics like this shooters end up feeling very unfair as you tend to die to enemies that you didn't know were there. Bioshock has a more interesting tweak of this where enemies will always miss their first shot at you, in order to give the player time to react to their presence.
@rofidnurramdhan2113 Жыл бұрын

I’m not sure if you can even call Battlefield 5s intro hot swapping. When ever you die in it it is always scripted; you will always be shot down by that one spitfire, you will always die to that out of place Tiger Tank, you will always be killed by that BF109 while on the bridge. At least in BF1s intro you could last for as long as you could, eventually getting overwhelmed and gunned down.

Call of Duty Black Ops 2 had a similar mechanic in the so called "Strike Force Missions". You could play it kinda like an RTS and order soldiers around or take control of any of them and switch between them whenever you wish. There were only about 5 of those mission though and the fans didn't like it that much afaik (they felt as a side-game, not really too in-depth).
@spirz45576 жыл бұрын

Nah, as one of those many people that didn't like the strike missions (but appreciated the attempt) I would've been very annoyed if they affected the ending significantly. I was already annoyed that the game told me my ending would be worse if I didn't take them seriously (read: actually play them). If I got an intentionally unsatisfying ending because I skipped all but the mandatory ones, I would've been pissed and declared the whole campaign a failure. Thank God they didn't do that though and it remains my second favourite cod campaign and also the last one I completed tbh.

If you combine Battlefield 2: Modern Combat's "Hot swap" mechanic with a non linear storyline, then they can fit together very well. So for example if you are playing a mission were you are trying to assasinate a high value target and if you fail, then instead of restarting the level, you can continue but the story would be different then it would be if you completed the mission. So you can see how it would work perfect together...

You could manage strageic assets with branching mission paths. Like save an artillery outpost and you get a tactical barrage on future missions or you could try to take an airfield so you'll have constant cap, or this is where I think it could really come into its own you try to do both but that means splitting your forces. Meaning that if you are good enough you could get both befits. The best part is there are so many different scenarios where you could just copy straight from history no questions asked. It also makes Co op really easy to implement. Hell you could even have large scale scenarios with a game master type person who manages the opposition.

At the end of each mission you saw a group photo of all crewmembers with a mark etched on those that have died in the campaign.

HELL YES! Thank you for doing a video on this! i remember getting Modern Combat back on the PS2 and had tons of fun with it, the hotswapping feature was definitely one of the greatest things it brought in, and as a first battlefield title for the consoles no less. They need to bring it back at least for campaigns.

I was soo hoping that One was going to bring this mechanic back. It just would have worked so well. Instead we got several small scale (in comparison to other titles in the franchise) one man army stories where aside from the opening mission, you just don't die. I was honestly disappointed, though I enjoyed the game overall.

That was the biggest disappointment for me in battlefield 1's single player. I thought they brought back Hot Swapping due to footage of the first mission. But when it came out, the campaign was disappointing, only missions I liked were the first two. Actually, the rest of the campaign feels like a poor-man's Far Cry with how its objectives are placed and how AI reacts.

Battlefield has all this big levels, so why not make campaign where the players are let loose on each map to do an objective or more, and make the player do how it wants it to be done. Does he want to do it stealth? Let him do it. As a sniper? Yes. Or as a pilot or tanker? You could even put sidequest and alternative missions to do. You could even bring a squad with you, and be a co-op experience or with AI. Imagine the way you play in a Far Cry game, but instead of an open world, open levels with different objectives. Of course with this method you can't really do the big battles like in World War 1, but you can always mix it in between the open levels. But the missions doesn't need to be so linear, when the map are so big and open. Use the big and open maps to your advantage.

Arma 2 operation arrowhead had missions like that, in one you played as a tanker and you had to lead a bunch of other tanks to destroy enemy hardpoints but you had alternate missions like saving people in an allied plane that had crashed, and the time spent affected the outcome of various objectives ( e.g if you took too long the pilot and crewmates were captured by the enemy forces and in the next level you were able to rescue them.)this let you approach missions however you wanted and you could prioritize what objectives to do first

It's funny, I had never played Modern Combat... But when I booted up BF1's "campaign" for the first time and did the intro mission, I was really really hoping that the entire game was basically the player swapping between different roles during large-scale battles. BF1 in my opinion was one of the weakest and unbalanced entries in the series on the Multiplayer side of things, and while War Stories had opportunity... I feel like it just boiled down to really predictable, boring plots that felt incredibly artificial. I haven't bothered replaying any of the Battlefield campaigns other than BFBC1 and 2, every other game I've played that has a campaign, I played it once, and never bothered with it again. But if DICE decided to bring Hot Swapping back into a main-series Battlefield game that actually functions... Well, for me that would be something I'd probably sink a lot of time into. But I think DICE only makes single player offerings these days just so they can add it to the list of "things" the new games have, rather than to actually give the players a memorable experience. Remember when they boasted their whopping NINE vanilla maps in BF1? And remember how all of those maps other than Quentin Scar and Monte Grappa were either grenade clusterfucks, or sniping matches? Despite how unbalanced the vanilla maps were, EA was just so ecstatic to be like "LOOK AT ALL THE CONTENT GUYS! GIVE US 10/10 PLS" and in truth, a lot of the things EA and DICE do is just for the sake of appearances. DICE and EA don't really give a crap about single player it seems, as every attempt they make seems to be focused on graphics and spectacle, rather than the experience, which is again why I believe they only do it to be able to show it off. Which is pretty unfortunate... Despite what big-shot companies like EA and Ubisoft seem to believe, there ARE people like me who enjoy being able to play games by themselves once in a while. Two of my favorite games in the last 5 years have been Prey 2017 and Resident Evil 7, and these games were both pretty well recieved and clearly made a lot of money. Prey 2017 is pretty much confirmed at this point to be getting either a sequel or a full-on expansion, so its fair to assume the game has enough of a following to warrant spending money and dev time on something like that. And these things give me hope that more excellent single player experiences that aren't mindlessly wandering around picking up crap (lookin' at you Skyrim) will come about in the future. It's just a massive disappointment for me that Battlefield, which is easily my favorite FPS franchise, seems to have little interest in putting actual effort into their single player experiences.

"Activision fanboy" Kid, you clearly don't know how to be critical of things you enjoy. I love BF1 and enjoy Battlefield in general but BF1 has been such a pain to play on Consoles, is greatly unbalanced in a number of ways, and the campaign was just a generic collection of war stories with no challenge, tension or substance. Side note, thinking you can dismiss someone being critical of something you like by simply calling then a "fanboy" of a rival franchise is automatically a sign that you lack any critical thinking skills required to counter any criticisms you disagree with, so I cant imagine any intelligent responses coming from you after this reply.

Bad Company 1 is great. It's got massive open ended levels, an amazing set of characters and a great story. The only issue is for some reason when you die you just respawn a few meters from where you were, completely killing the crazy intensity the game otherwise would have had. BC2 is good as well, but it's a linear, Cawadoody esque roller coaster semi serious military shooter, but at least has hillarious banter between characters in game. Even despite its shortcomings, the multiplayer is still played today iirc, and it's second only to BF2 (i.e. it's really fucking good). If you think BF3 was bad, BF4 is an absolute fucking trainwreck. Barely made it 3 missions for giving up (although the fact it was unstable as fuck at launch and crashed every 5 minutes might have been more the reason).

Bad Company 1. BC2 is also pretty alright but BC1 is better in my opinion, it's more open like Battlefield and more humorous. BF3 is immersive but boring, BF4 is just boring. BF1 is too easy, and it is more open but it's pretty boring too. edit: forgot BF2MC (never played it) and Hardline (pretty easy and boring).

Hot-Swapping was great in the campaign as you needed to change roles/vehicles to compete tasks. The mission with the UH-60 Blackhawk where it was being used for surveillance. You needed to fly it over areas for it to take data and photographic evidence. Before that ideally, you needed to fly a AH-6 little bird to take out anti-air or do it on foot. You had essentially a 1/1 scale town/almost a city to clear and doing it just on foot would take you forever. Oddly enough, the closest thing to Hot-Swapping was the campaign of Grand Theft Auto 5 where you could change between the 3 protagonists to compete objectives simultaneously. Hot-Swapping works well in the right environment but I don’t believe or know how it could be implemented into a multiplayer game. And yes, the final mission of Battlefield 2: Modern Combat was extremely difficult and frustrating. Along with, I believe at one point you are handed a device but you’ve never used or trained on a laser designator. That took a while to work out.
