*** Battlefield 1 ***

[Nexus18]

And that is why we are stuck with premium/season passes, parts of games being cut out for paid for DLC purposes etc. etc. because people just "accept it" and don't vote with their wallet...

If people really want to see changes then they need to vote with their wallet and not pre-order or cancel their pre-order now, this is the only way DICE/EA will get the message that the game isn't up to scratch and that they need to do address peoples complaints rather than leaving it till 6 months after final release (like all previous titles) when the game could very well be dead and no one no longer cares i.e. hardline and battlefront.

Honestly, I thought it was just me and a few who wouldn't like this with the majority loving it but looking at the last few pages of this thread and other forums, I am actually quite surprised to see there only being a handful of people genuinely enjoying it (probably largely due to the map though) but as said, if people keep their pre-orders etc. then nothing will change, once again.

As the COD CEO guy said to investors:

In response to the terrible reaction to the COD IW trailer..

"The fact is, while it's very early, pre-orders are off to a very strong start," CEO Eric Hirshberg said in an earnings call with investors.

If they don't change the gunplay completely I don't see this game lasting more than a couple of months. Everything else I can deal with.

It's a difficult line to be sure. What may happen is that they have 2 parallel games... with half the community on BF4 and half on BF1.

lol at the quit option - the options are inverted to behaviour.

Haven't had a chance to play the beta yet but if the gunplay is like people say and DICE don't change it what an epic fail... given BF4 I don't expect them to change it short of the game being a total flop with no one playing it after a few days.

Can some-one test this in the console for me, it's the "no HUD" settings, looks really good

UI.Drawenable 0

Don't be fooled by the graphics and sounds, the game is junk. Tried again today and this is no Battlefield. Zero to little squad play, tactics, not fun.

One thing this BETA has done is save me £70 and given me a reason to go back to BF2/2142 (battlelog.co).

Exactly the same feedback was given about SWBF and that flopped.

See Ya

Any i can see why they decided to name this BF1, rather than continue the follow up games/names. Its not a sequel or follow up, its a rehash..and a bad one at that.

While people often say one thing and do another when it comes to EA games - was interesting last night playing on a 64 player BF4 server when the topic came up and like 61 players were like nope not buying BF1 and only like 2 admitted they'd bought it.

Junk for you maybe. I'm enjoying it and finding it lots of fun. Allow me to correct it for you.

Don't be fooled by the graphics and sounds, the game is junk in my opinion. Tried again today and this is no Battlefield. Zero to little squad play, tactics, not fun, at least not for me.



Its double fun, the fun of the game and the fun of bookmarking all the posts that say they are out, not buying anymore, utter rubbish etc..and reposting the bookmarks at release for some hypocrisy fun

How is ultrawidescreen in BF1?

3440x1440, hud etc fit properly?

Well, as it's me writing it I would assume people would understand it's my opinion.

The game is bad. Fact.

 

[Bantu]

They should run it as 2 separate franchises. One modern with old style mechanics and one with new mechanics.

Like most software games will eventually move to a service, so maybe they can release them free (or cut price) and charge a monthly fee. Or just make it F2P.

 

[JediFragger]

I'm not gonna bother with it. gonna jump on 2142 Revive instead

interesting. Well.. maybe it will be a huge flop then. The question is how many have pre-ordered it simply based on the name and are not playing the beta.

 

[snips86x]

Well looking at this, don't think I'll bother.

Thanks for saving me time and bandwidth

 

[starmanwarz]

Is it possible to cancel a preorder from cdkeys?

The game is bad. Fact.

The game is bad. Opinion.

 

[Day187]

I must agree with a lot of people its to great at all...

Im not preordering it, dont really see the point in preorders, but I will be buying it. I also suspect that more than a few of the people who are vehemently declaring that they wont buy it, actually will. Thereby rendering everything they say , moot.

of course. That's the nature of all these things. Ultimately, no matter how bad a game is, if you have friends who are committed to playing it, you may end up buying it anyway.
