Article: "DICE DEVELOPER CONFIRMS NEXT BATTLEFIELD GAME TO INCLUDE PIRATE SHIPS AND VAMPIRES!"
Exactly the same for me. I had a blast with BF4 at PS4 launch and the months after. REALLY hoping this new BF is something along the lines of 4.
Watching old B3 trailers, game still looks amazing. Super pumped for this after the last 2 games being set in ww1 and ww2.
I hope for this Thursday or Friday, but next week is more likely.
I'm thinking May 7th for the announcement, to keep the hype going into the quarterly report. But I'd like to see it earlier.
Really hope that means next-gen and PC only, and not just PR prioritizing next gen messaging in their comms.
We had new modes with every new BF. They always were pushed but ultimately abandoned by players despite being actually not that bad.
I remember BF4 having a small scale Search and Destroy like round based mode.
But you never had any servers running this mode unfortunatelly...
I think the playerbase of BF isnt that interested in the game modes itself. I think they rather want to shoot anything that moves and grind for new unlocks.
Nothing wrong about that but in a match with 32 players on your team maybe 7-10 actually PTFO.
I wish they forced players to play more objective oriented.
Operations was one of the additions that really stuck and became popular in BF1. Then they messed it up in BFV tho..
I wish Obliteration caught on because that was basically Return Fire in the Battlefield engine.
Operations in BF1 was amazing and worked great. Even more with the "story"
They messed it up in BFV. So dont do that version
Remove the best mode of BF1??? Operations is all my buddies and I played in the end.
Conquest is nice but rush can go.
nah. They probably learned alot from BFV. They got more time now also for post launch and of its modern there is alot more room for customization and people like and fit the era.
BFV's live service was a disaster that killed the game, but there is no reason to go back to what is objectively worse: the Premium model.
Give us classic conquest and I mean battlefield 2 pc conquest, not the rubbish we've seen recently oh and rush from bad company 2. Everything else is just to pad the numbers and no one will ever play them.
Bring back Premium, 4 x 4 map packs >>> the shit we get now.
Oh and scrap the single player and co-op nonsense.
You're welcome EA/Dice

I played BF2 modern combat on 360, not sure if that was anything close to how the PC version played. I never played BF2 on PC, how does conquest on that differ from say BF4?
How much content did we get with premium compared to not?? There are tons of BF players that are happy to invest more $$ to get more content especially when we are playing for hundreds of hours.
Please have all weapons unlocked from the start. Make people play or pay for cosmetic items only.
Rush is Battlefield to me, for some reason no matter the number of players, Conquest feels like a ghost town to me.
Imagine actively wanting EA to take more of your money. Gross.
Yes, I do like to support my favorite games and get more content. The horror.
Conquest is never a ghost town for me, are you one of those players that snipes in their own spawn?
Operations is the best mode the franchise has introduced in a while.
I liked that they tried to introduced more varied objectives in it with V, though it could been tweaked more.
I think it's a way better attack/defend mode for massive player counts than Rush which has never played well with 64+ players.
Rush is the mode that made me like the entire franchise. Rush on BC and BF3 were great to play.
Only problem with premium is that it segregates the playerbase, long term it's fine because eventually they just make it free but it is pretty annoying
With crossplay on all platforms though, it might not be so bad this time. Not sure the current market would accept a £40 pass though, they'd make more off of cosmetics if they handle it right this time; couldn't think of a bigger waste of money than cosmetics on BFV.

Breakthrough might be more your speed. Definitely way higher player density than CQ, almost to a fault.
Most of the BF1/BFV CQ maps didn't really have a good flow either, so that doesn't help that feeling.
People always want more and more maps, yet they are the most expensive and complex content to make, that takes the longest amount of time. 😭 The curse of a map-based game, I guess. :D Takes like 6-9 months and a dozen people to make a good quality BF map.
Stop posting here and get back to making maps!
Being serious though, maps can make or break a shooter for me, I hope there's a decent number at launch.
I hope not, half the fun is spending time earning unlocks. If everything is open from the getgo there's no goals to play for.
This is a big part of why I vastly prefer Premium, because I'm paying for more content I want to see in the game (more maps, weapons, vehicles, etc).
Premium has the obvious drawback of segmenting the playerbase, but it's weird how upset some people get over the option of simply paying for the extra content you want to see in the game. Instead we all have to hope other players ("whales") dump enough money into the game to subsidize any content beyond cosmetics for the rest of us.
Lol theres such a specific "look" to the early 2000's portrayal of future warfare. I have such nostalgia for this. Its funny how that style has evolved over the decades of what future war might look like.Give me this again, please.
I'm incredibly hyped for this, what I hope for is Battlefield 4 with the incredible atmosphere of Battlefield 1 and then some. Playing BF1 in operations mode made me feel like I was part of an actual war.
I also can't wait to see the graphics and technology. Very exciting!

Time well spent! But fascinating stuff, BF maps obviously have a lot of terrain and I imagine tons of design iteration and play testing to go through.
Hyped for the reveal. Hopefully in the next two weeks.
If unlocking weapons is the only reason to play than something has gone horribly wrong with the game.
the goals should be winning the match, getting more kills and controlling the map.
I said half :D the other half is learning the game and getting better at it
