I’m all for going forward, tired of history now but as you say so long as it’s not full of lock-ons and stupid tech like mech suits, jet packs etc, but I’m confident DICE will make it as realistic as possible.
The content I'm referring to was based on Battlefield 2142 which had neither jet packs or laser beams but did have mechs, hover tanks and titans which were being developed during BF4's time period. Hover tanks were already playable so if the new Battlefield were to be a direct sequel and take place 10 years after BF4, it would either have to incorporate these sci fi elements into the game and accept that it isn't a modern game at all or ignore it ever happened and accept that it isn't really a sequel to BF4.
I'm personally for the latter, I would prefer a pure modern military Battlefield game with no historic restrictions whether that be from historical fact or their own fictional history.
That being said, lasers are used in modern military and jet wings are things that exist now so to be fair, they would be more believable than the other things mentioned :P

That’s a good point actually, but I guess that would depend on if all games are supposed to tie in to each other.
And yeh some of the tech already available today is pretty nuts lol
Some of the info yesterday was wrong according to the same source:
Apparently the reveal will actually be Multiplayer but no first person view, only cinematic.
And the info regarding the campaign is wrong, instead that info is just part of the backstory for which there may not even be a campaign.
