Wow.
Is this literal revenge for the specialist feedback?
@ChugKendall Depends on what pattern you mean. Battlefield began chasing COD with Bad Company 2 and BF3. BF2 did have more infantry and CQC focused gameplay with the Special Forces expansion, and BF2142 had maps like Camp Gibraltar and Berlin clearly focused on infantry. But it's been more of a focus since Bad Company. They veered off after BF4, but BF2042 seems to have them back on that track. And COD has the Specialists concept too.
Westie has a great video: Battlefield 2042 Final Thoughts before launch... - YouTube
He breaks down the history of Battlefield games and where it branches off. He sees BF2042 as putting us back on the main branch. Sort of like:
BF1942 -> BF Vietnam -> BF2 -> BF2142 -----> BF3 -> BF4 --------------------> BF2042
\ \ \
Bad Co 1&2 BF Hardline BF1 -> BFV
Basically, he looks at BF2042 as a direct sequel to BF4, not BFV, with BF1 and BFV being on their own branch off the main line with a very different focus and style.
@ArchAngeL-PCX Yep, listen to the YouTubers that get paid by Dice and played warzone for the past years. Thats exactly that kind of guy, i want to explain me, what BF is. Just because BF2042 sticks to the lore of BF4, doesnt mean that this game is like BF4. It is clearly Not.
@stabbinhobo I wouldnt mind that trailer at all, of the game was nothing like this. But they had this perfect dark setting, that dark soundtrack and then they bring something like this. However didnt get it, even after this trailer: This Game is just a Battlefield by name.
