I have to admit, I don't agree. I don't want a Battlefield 4 remaster. And I don't think DICE wants this either. It is a boring proposal, doing the same over and over... Will just bore the Playerbase and the developers.
I think, the game can change in many aspects, I also don't think that specialists are bad in general. But it was no change, made to improve the gameplay. Or it didn't worked out, as DICE thought it would. Either the motivation for the change was wrong one, or it was not tested enough to seen that it is not beneficial or hasn't reworked to do so.
The design process for such a big project is not just determine something and miracle something good comes out, it has to be tested, reviewed, changed and so on, or canceled if nothing helps.
I am not against 128 players for example, but if I can't get the performance right or the flow on the maps, then I should not implement it.
I think, if the focus lies more on the gameplay and less on making money, or bringing it for the next Christmas... I am fully for more creative changes for the next Battlefield.
What could be an option... A Remake of BF4, with a separate team, so a separate game. Maybe with some improvements but many nostalgia. But I think it would be lazy, to just copy everything from BF4. I have had enough of lazy rip offs on the gaming market (BF2042, World of Warcraft, Overwatch 2, the next Fifa, etc). I want a game, where you feel, that the team wanted to create something great, with passion. BF1 for example has its flaws, but the immersion was exceptional, something I will keep in good memories.
Where I would agree is to look at mechanics, what the players loved, the movement from BF5 for example, the fortification, the destruction and so on. But if for example there is an improvement for these systems possible, I am happy to see them.

Agreed.
I also don't want re-skinned titles.
Dice tried something new with every game apart from 4 which at launch was criticised for being a lazy BF3 re-skin and its sales suffered as a result compared to BF3.
1, V and 2042 have all tried to keep things fresh and innovate.
Ok 2042 went too far with the whole childish specialist vibe, but I give them credit for providing another battlefield game that is unique within the series.
Some things works, some don't, such is life when you take risks.
If you want the same game every release just stick with COD.
What s luck, that you can speak for all Battlefield players...
Look, Battlefield is something different for every person. For one person, it is the old times of Battlefield 3, for the other one the Battlefield 1... And for other players, they think it should be more like CoD. Nobody is right, nobody wrong.
For me, Counterstrike Global Offensive was never as good as Counter Strike 1.6... but the player count is telling something different. And the same goes for CoD, for me it was never an option, BF was always superior to it.
So you should accept, that it is not your Battlefield game. Everybody has the right, to wish changes, as everybody has the right to just want a BF4 remake.
As I said, as long as the gameplay and fun are the top priority, the game can be different to every other game, as it wants to be. I was very sceptical to BF1, because I didn't like the setting and to my surprise DICE put out a great game, so different to BF4. And even BF5 was great, despite the huge critique it got at release. It felt good, it was fun and had some good mechanics (movement, destruction, fortification).
But that is just my opinion, I would never say, that anybody in this thread is wrong about their imagination for the next Battlefield.
I wasn’t looking for a remastered Bf4, although that kind sounds cool. I was hoping for a new battlefield in a modern setting, that had a combination of features from 4/1/5
instead they removed all the features of 4/1/5, which for me made for a pretty borring experience in 2042.
I personally still play 4. But would have switched to 2042 if it had the same appeal with the better graphics and new maps. But for me it just didn’t cut it.
