Battlefield 6 - Thread

The next Battlefield is described as a “tremendous live service” game

Motive is working alongside fellow EA studios DICE, Criterion and Ripple Effect to create “a Battlefield universe across connected multiplayer experiences and single-player”, the publisher said.

And during the company’s quarterly earnings call on Tuesday, EA boss Wilson said he recently had the chance to experience some of the fruits of their labour.

“This is the largest Battlefield team in franchise history. A few weeks ago, I was visiting with the teams, and I couldn’t be more excited about what they showed and what we were able to play.”

He later added: “I’ve just spent a whole bunch of time with the collective Battlefield team playing what they’re building and it is going to be another tremendous live service.”

Will rename the thread once we find out what the game will be called. But with the CEO calling the game a live service, I don't hold much hope. He really hyped up 2042 and it was awful!

 

[Yaayuh!]

LOL.

 

[Oh Ed not again.]

Modern shooters are shot. Possibly a typo.

 

[Neil79]

LOL.

GOTY - AAAA

It’s joever before it even began.

Largest Battlefield team in franchise history.. So how many basic features do we think will be missing from the release game?

 

[RevBillyG]

It's gonna have to be pretty bloomin' special to make up for the last travesty. (Disclaimer, I've played quite a few hours of BF2042 and have enjoyed but it's still the worst BF by far)

 

[Oh Ed not again.]

BF2042 was so good I started playing BFV again, exclusively.

 

[Rroff]

Went steeply downhill after BF4 IMO and even BF4 had a few issues due to sloppy coding which took the shine off it.

PPL complain too much about 2042 (gamer herd mentality), it's a good game now, but going forward I just want a proper server browser.

BTW Hardline and BFV are the worst battlefields

 

[adidan]

Battlefield eh? Damn, not been on that since BF3.

 

[Zefan]

I find it impossible not to be at least slightly hyped for modern Battlefield games (having been a big fan of BF2/3) but... Meh hopefully totally wrong and they rise like a phoenix from the ashes of their reputation.

No stars in title, no mention of this being the official thread. 1*

I suspect the days of a server browser and/or private hosting are gone. It’s just not worth the additional coding and time.

No classes, dodgy server performance, stupid loadout decisions, no server browser and vastly OP vehicles. Same as every launch these days.

Start with just a pistol and unlock every other gun from the battlepass..

Unlock anti-vehicle load outs at level 35 so get absolutely slaughtered by vehicles for weeks if not months. Just like 2042. Don’t forget your choice of anti-air, anti-vehicle or land mines. But not any at the same time so you’re at a massive disadvantage if you don’t have the correct loadout at the time.

Oh and edit to add, your RPG style option has no lock on option at all without a rarely used perk from another player, and you can only kill a tank with it without resupply from the rear.

The last good Battlefield game was BF2, change my mind.

I have a feeling it'll just be another DLC infested ,specialists ridden crap all over again.

I honestly don't expect them to have listened to the feedback people have given.
all it comes down to now is keeping the Investors/shareholders happy.

What I found annoying in 2042 was the lack of a real server browser,no option to filter out maps you hate and when it did automatically shove you in a map you hated,when you back out and try to join another round it'd throw you back in exactly the same horrible map you've just left.
a lot of people were asking for metro to come,did they give it? Nope..I assume they'll add that to BF6 to get more people to buy.

I remember early after launch I played the same map 5 times in a row as I had zero control over what server I joined or what map I did, or didn’t want to play. I just ended up quitting for the night.
