Modern Battlefield games have just as many cheaters and I really can't see the majority forking out $60 when Warzone, Apex and Fornite are free and constantly updated.
Battle Quarter Pounder with no cheesethey are working on a new mode. i think it maybe something BR or similar and they just call it a different name.
It did for years , when it went on hiatus after 2142 cod MW came out and that's when the gap between them opened.
I have mates who havent bought Modern Warfare or Cold war but do spend on COD points for skins and stuff.
Battle Quarter Pounder with no cheese
I cant see it being Battle Royale, they said categorically that there would be no Battle Royale, whatever the new mode is, I dont think its BR
As @loftie said, it's not BR, it's 'Battle Quarter Pounder with no cheese'
Call it what you want, it sounds like BR to me
High stakes, squad based gameplay where good comms are needed and sweaty palm tension building moments
Oh I can't remember the name but it was a BF3 map and you only did the jump in Rush. Damavand Peak. Just came to me. The one with the tunnel up the middle.

Uh-oh....bots in multiplayer confirmedHopefully this doesn't end up like PUBG where 90% of the player base are bots!
- Multiplayer – AI soldiers are used for server-filling capabilities, ensuring your matches remain full, no matter your location.
Bots?! Sounds awful.
That doesnt sound at all like BR to me, the key feature of BR is that its a last man(squad) standing mode. Thats the very definition of BR. Theres nothing in the description above which makes any mention of last man standing. In fact, the games Post Scriptum, Squad and Hell Let Loose fit the description of squad based gameplay where good comms are needed and sweaty palm tension building moments and none of them are in any way BR. That description doesnt sound like BR to me, not without the last man standing feature, without last man standing it quite literally isnt BR. I suspect folks who desperately want a BR mode are reading too much into it and will be disappointed
The rumours I've heard are that its going to be a mode similar to Escape from Tarkov, which would make a certain amount of sense, fits with the Hazard Zone name and would be a squad based high stakes mode where good comms is vital.

Oh god. What are they thinking... People left when there were bots.
I’d imagine there will be a sliding scale, like if there are 60 players in the server then the bots might only be a dozen or so on each side. If there are 40+ players per side then perhaps no bots at all? This can likely be tweaked and I’d imagine any bots will be identifiable and if they start driving a tank for example (they may not even do so but who knows right now?) and you enter the tank you’re automatically the driver and the bot jumps on the secondary turret.

My thoughts entirely. At the moment and if BFV is anything to go by I'm imagining being on the losing team, half team leaving but instead of having the finish the round 16v32 as there's no balance it'll be 64 players and 64 bots vs the winning 128 players....

Yer auto balance would be nice, but there was never anything worse than being removed from a great squad and placed on the other team. That sucked.

Yer it sucked when you were in a great squad, died and got moved to the other team. I wonder if they could move entire squads to balance out a server?
