Bigger question is will it be good? Plenty of reasons to doubt.
It doesn’t need to be call of duty for it to be profitable or successful.battlefield hasn't been relevant for a while now tho.
yup. I think Battlefield peaked between 2005-2011. Battlefield 2 was amazing. Bad Company 2 was fun. And I really enjoyed Battlefield 3.battlefield hasn't been relevant for a while now tho.
Plus the two gens are basically PC’s. Developing for current gen alongside next gen isnt so much different than what DICE (as a predominately PC developer) has already been doing with low-high end gaming PC’s.Probably yeah.
Keep in mind though that Dice seems to have no issues with severely downgrading their games on older hardware.
Battlefield 4 looked horrible on Ps3/360, ran at less than 720p, targeting 30fps while still having drops bellow that and multiplayer limited to 24 players.
The next battlefield can be on Ps4/Xb1 while still being a showcase for next gen consoles.
DICE LA is working on a new IP under the supervision of Vince Zampella, so the next Battlefield will be handled by DICE Stockholm. Initially it was the Los Angeles studio the one that was supposed to make the game (Bad Company 3 in Vietnam - this was an early concept, no idea if the game morphed into something else with the years), but Stockholm took over the project in 2018.After they had major issues trying to put BF4 on 5 platforms. I'd really fucking hope they don't do that again.
It took a whole new studio to fix that mess. If there is a new one in the works I want it to be the team that fixed BF4 to make it. DICE Stockholm are just bad now. The only good folks they have are animation and audio guy.
I think you're confusing taste with quality.Beat me to it.
I bought hardline, 1, and V all off of hope. I quit hoping for a good Battlefield ever coming out again.
I think you're confusing taste with quality.
I enjoyed Hardline quite a bit. Didn't care for 1 and haven't played V. That doesn't stop them from being games that fall somewhere on the good to great scale, it doesn't mean they don't successfully implement much of what makes a BF game a BF game, it just means I didn't like them.
Mainly I didn't like them because they don't have helicopters, lol. Should I use that criteria to judge the quality of the games? Probably not.
A lot of people---on this forum in particular, it seems---formed a deservedly negative impression of BFV from the initial hero-shooter-esque trailer. A negative impression that was reinforced by the whole argument over "woke" vs. history, or at least the parts of history people having the argument decided to cherry pick. The game they actually released? It's a BF game. It isn't the over-the-top cartoony stuff that was in that first announcement. It seems like a pretty good BF game, matter of fact.
Not compared to MW.Obviously it will. Last bf games already look next gen compared to cod.
I hope they go back to the Bc2/bf3/bf4 formula, i hated the last BF.
It was an absolutely disaster on PS4/XB1.Probably yeah.

After that it went downhill. To be fair I don't think Battlefield 4 was terrible but it just didn't feel the same as 3. Most of the time I just play the Battlefield 3 maps.
Hardline, 1, and V were trash.
I swear if BFVI is another World War game then I'm done. I really want them to have a modern/futuristic game and maybe lean back towards a more realistic style of gameplay.
I really hope they ditch the pointless campaign. One of the worst cases of wasting dev resources in the AAA industry. People don't play Battlefield games for the shitty single player campaigns.
Yeah are they going to put a female person of color on the cover of the game?But will it be woke?
Believe it or not the Pacific theater maps are fucking awesome and addictive in BF5, I hadn't touched it in months like at least over half a year but I recently logged in to try the Pacific theater maps and it seems they took their time to make it extra polished because the graphics look amazing and I'm hooked, do you still own BF5 because if you do login again and give the new Pacific theater maps a try?I played first battlefield 1942 or something ( amazing ), battlefield bad company 2 ( probably one of there best games they ever created specially with the vietnam dlc ) battlefield 3 ( great at the start ended up being bad through airplanes deleting everything and nothing to stop them ) BF4 was pretty much a hot fix for battlefield 3 on that front and pissed people off by being just that. BF1 kinda removed classic battlefield way of playstyle, world war 1 which wasn't even remotely perceived well, butchered gameplay, streamers that basically just dropped it because there were no helicopters anymore kinda killed their franchise off entirely as they waited for the next BF3/4.
Then the dumpster fire of BF5 which burned all bridges, that got vomited out everywhere, shat on russians, shat on europeans, shat on ww2 entirely, shat on there consumers multiple times in all rainbow color ways. Yea good job bro.
BF1 was the way to fix there franchise finally they failed hard, then BF5 the game basically dropped of everybody's radar.. i don't think at this point anybody cares anymore about it. It's a generic shitty shooter these days.
Or females for that matter, when they put a female on the cover of a world war 2 game (BF5).Nah it just have to cater to leftist sjw politics so the minority also has a game to play and identify themselves in.
Apparently it's coming out next year and apparently it's going to take advantage of next gen consoles to "blow people's minds" but is it going to be a cross gen title or next-gen only?
Tell that to EA and DICEIt doesn’t need to be call of duty for it to be profitable or successful.
DICE isnt the same team anymore.
Old DICE is at embark studios.
You're wrong in a couple of points:Its going to be next gen only.
The best way to figure this out, is to see what they've done in the past.
Battlefield 2 was on XB and 360 thus cross gen, Battlefield bad Company 1 was only for next gen ie 360.
Battlefield 4 was on 360, PS3, PS4 and XONE, Battlefield Hardline was next gen only.
Battlefront 3 is likely coming this fall, which means next fall will be a Battlefield game. They have no reason to make it cross gen, they have very little history of doing cross gen with that series the second year or second title by the studio during a gen etc. The fact that EA themselves reference next gen with the next battlefield in terms of tech is enough to see they are making it next gen only. So 99% its next gen only.
cragarmi I mean..who is saying its not? All this is confirming is that another BF is coming which is completely moot btw.
