I don’t get it. First you are comparing it all to BF4, saying how the game has lost its identity. Then you’re saying that they don’t innovate and just copy everything from the last installment. I’m not sure what you’re actually looking for here?
And to be fair, they innovated a lot over each new installment, but most of it wasn’t really good and that’s where I agree that they lost their identity, trying to innovate on all the wrong things.
its very similar to bf 2042 in many ways.
I agree, but what do you want them to innovate on? Because all your points basically say “make it like in BF4”. That wouldn’t be innovation either.
I just hope the new battlefield will just follow, refine, innovate its predecessor into something like bf4.5 and won't copy the COD and developing the game without the influnce of COD, the OG DICE Devs knows that, i am not one of them.
Although I agree with some of your points I don’t agree on this one.
I have been involved in 3 BF Labs playtests and also still play BF2042. The feel is completely different. Whenever I joined a playtest I really had to get used to the slower movement pace of BF6.
So far in the playtests I also haven’t seen unrealistic stuff that the specialist system in BF2042 brought.
Destruction and atmosphere are back, completely different from the almost cartoonlike bright colored BF2042 maps.
So they updated the Ui, so what? It’s 2025, BF4 was 12 years ago. I’m withSawtooth75 on this, they need to keep things fresh and bring new stuff. If you want everything to be as in BF4 you might as well play BF4.
The bf4 got that unique bf UI design(loadout, customizations) its more straight forward, very fast,easy to read and to use and it's got nothing from COD at all, which means battlefield(bf6) lost its identity, yeah its more fancy but its less easy to use and less practical and functional less straight forward and more complicated and messy. watch this : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQGGRM5Z8fo
Is it perfect? No! Is it a beta? Yes!
I also struggled to some extend finding my way in the UI during the Labs test. Again because it was different from BF2042 which I’m used to now as it’s the latest I’ve been playing.
There definitely is room for improvement but isn’t that exactly the point of playtesting and a beta?
