Re: First battlefield I won't be buying in a while. Not interested in BF6 modern war

@shnukshnuk funny because the 80% of my battlefield mates said exactly the opposite and didn't buy or stopped playing BF1 and BFV. Those who played BF1 jumped ship to PUBG when it was an alpha. And those that started out in BFV went straight to CoD modern warfare once it was released. These are players that had never played CoD before but just couldn't handle the clunky guns of the period.

It will be along time before anyone is brave enough to try historical games again... Pity because I could have seen an American Civil War setting work fine and even more brave a bit of steampunk lol.

  • The plan was simple :

    WW1 in the mornings ,

    WW2 in the afternoons/early evenings ,

    Modern warfare at night .

    As it turned out though :

    BFV was so much fun that I've regularly skipped past BF1 .

    The plan fell to pieces .

    No plan with the New Game then , just a prediction :

    Two World Wars and an upheaval - just . . . forgotten .

    . . . for a few months , at least .

    It makes most sense for the next game to be modern warfare but I'm disappointed by the lack of imagination most games have with the setting. They could literally do whatever they want with it and pretty much every time it's the same old USA vs The Commies Old and New and if rumours/leaks are true then BF6 is going to be the same old.

    THIS!   And it would maybe have been less than 4 years out in the future!?  :o)

    And think about the commercial potential for EA.

    China would finally allow its 2B citizens to buy a modern Battlefield game, as the game is all about trashing American cities and landmarks into rubble.  The total game sales in the Middle East would probably also quadruple.

    This is where one should put the biggest of Xs to signify the deepest of doubts of that ever happening.
