No doubt that the BF6 reveal trailer that EA is expected to launch in May will be decisive to either excite us on finally getting the BF franchise back to where it belongs! The top-pick of the most epic premium FPS games! Or it will leave us disappointed and worried that EA may yet again have failed to listen to their customers...
What I want to see in the reveal trailer:
We really need to get a good inside look into the BF6 setting. The BFV reveal left us behind with more questions than answers. Aka was it really WW2 or somewhere fictional? The BFV was also trying to be all things. And still, it was nothing of anything. Was it humorous, serious, realistic, silly nonsensical? The BF1 reveal trailer was much better in this regard. Clear focus, scope and purpose for the gameplay and its setting.
So no more BFV style reveal trailers please. We need realism and staying truthful to what the player can experience in the game when it comes out.
Like we need to see a wide range of the locations we can look forward to play in. Again, BFV was awful here, only showing us one single map for the duration of the reveal.
So EA, show us a selection of the various maps, to prove you have now a complete product for us to buy!
We want to see the variation of combat situations. BBC2 was great, with the different characters, vehicles, planes etc all having a go at each other. We want to see the empathy exactly on the things that makes BF different and much better than anything else out there! Epic large scale battle, all the vehicle types, the destruction that we as soldiers can inflict. So not just induct us into a battlescene where aka the entire village is already bombed to rubble. Let us do that with the explosives, the vehicles, the planes etc!
And say what you want about background noises and soundtrack. But the BF franchise has great history also of fabulous soundtracks and effects. The BFV reveal was a huge disappointment in that area and zero soundtrack. No identity for us the players, as we otherwise felt great about in BF3 and BF4. Did somebody forget to add it onto the gold master tape for the BFV reveal? Hello?
And for EA to answer to all our top priorities of 'must-haves' for the BF6 game, as we listed in this forum threas above...
We absolutely need to see these fulfilled in the reveal trailer!
EA, show us the weapon customization features!
EA, show us the vehicle customization features!
EA, show us the map locations and variations!
And dont give us any sugar-sweet supposedly 'Political Correct' BS please!
I dont care about if there are males/females/xmales/whatever in the game. Its a war game. It is the battle and game mechanics that matters.
So no offense EA, but no 'out of place' amputee woman this time around please!
And personally I dont care about player customization. I dont care about if I can setup my soldier with 5 different skins or 100. Nice to haves, yes maybe. But as they have no influence on the gameplay mechanics itself, they dont really matter for the reveal. And do not show us something in the reveal that we wont get in the game!
We are still waiting for many of your BF1 and BFV promises to be implemented. Or actually: No, dont waste any of your time on it.
You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig.
So please, focus all your power, money, talent on the next BF game, and lets have a great BF6 !
