*** Battlefield 1 ***

Is it the same team doing BF1 that did BF4? I seem to recall BF4 being handed over from DICE in one country to somewhere else to patch up. Though I may be talking balls.

Yes the game was patched up DICE LA after DICE Stockholm moved onto battlefront.

After battlefront finished, DICE Stockholm started work on Battlefield one. DICE LA are now doing the DLC for battlefront I believe.

The work done by DICE LA on the frostbite engine should carry across to Battlefield 1 so BF1 shouldh't have the same issues as BF4.

I say should ..... Best wait for reviews after release IMO.
 
That's it ta. Shame BF4 had such a shaky start as it really got some TLC post launch. I remember quitting after the first week due to the netcode being a pile of ****. Hopefully we won't see the same issues with BF1 then.
 
I have got to say, this game looks absolutely amazing!

I was really shocked at the reveal, I didn't think that a WW1 setting would work at all. This has certainly proved me wrong (IMO). Looks like a day one purchase for me.

the only reason the WWI setting works is because they've taken a lot of artistic license. Its not in any way accurate and plays just like existing battlefield games, just all the weapons , outfits and vehicles look like they are from that sort of era

Reddit is full of people moaning about there being too many automatic weapons, about how the voice announcing objectives is "too modern" and there's even people proposing to create their own roleplaying servers where you're forced to use only one weapon, only one skin, no melee weapons etc.. Its crazy. Go play Verdun if you want accuracy.
 
It will be final for the british forces. THey'll have a different voice for each team.

But the complaints weren't that you got the english voice as a german soldier. Some are complaining the voice is "too modern" others that "it's not aggressive enough and should be swearing" or that the voice is "too soothing" its all BS. Its such a non issue.

I don't for one minute expect them to remove that voice from the game for British forces. They are all going to have their own voices, and each one of them is going to ham the accent up to the 9s to make it clear they are British / Russian / German etc...

Yeah it's those same people that bang on about how much different and better bf is too cod. With out realising they are basically right next to each other on the arcade scale. They're different sure and I much prefer bf. But lets say you put arma one end and quake the other.....where do cod and bf sit? Right next to each other in the middle some where
 
Not looked at anything Battlefield 1 related and will continue to not do so. I will buy it and hopefully be pleasantly surprised.. Well that is the plan at least. :D
 
Damn those vids have been removed just sat down with a cuppa *triggered

the second one just hasn't been entered properly. The other one has been removed as its closed alpha footage so somebody broke their NDA :D Here's the second one

Thanks for repost! My only concern having just started playing bf4 on console after pc is the snap to aim they've added in bf4. I'm happy with aim slow down over target but I don't like the instant snaps when you ads. Obviously I can turn that off but I just think it removes so much from the game for others to have such a feature. Hopefully they tone it down. Bc2 only had slow down and it made the gun play really rewarding.
 
It looks from that video, they have gone back to the sniping mechanics of bad company 2.

I see no scope flare and no one going prone, anyone else seen any full on sniping videos?
