Battlefield 6 set for next-gen, what do they need to fix/improve?

Naughty dog has more sjw shit in their games than DICE.

Im not a Playstation player so that doesn't affect me. But does it have to be a competition? Sjw is shit no matter how much there is in the game.
 
- Something to grab my attention for years, so a progression system (so, a battle pass would be awesome);
- Only Team Deatmatch and BR;
- NO vehicles;
- A bigger focus in diversity;
- More weapons customization (don't care if it's only more skins. I want unlocks).

How many people have I triggered?
Reported :)
 
give us the full game no DLC no micro transactions and no in game currency. Release 2 full worthwhile expansion packs and continue supporting the game for 4-5 years. Do that and i will gladly pay 70 if needs be.
But then again that is just a pipe dream
 
How about an honest, reasonably long single-player campaign that isnt a hodgepodge of disassociated 'stories'? BF1 and BF2 are pathetic in his regard—-less than one hour of gameplay SP campaigns. Not everyone cares about MP exclusively.

Go back to Bad Company, BF3, BF4—study those MP maps: why did they work so well? why do your BF1 and BF2 maps suck so bad in comparison?
 
+Set in modern times
+Fully destructible terrain
+Ray tracing
+Unlock system akin to BF4 (not BF1 or BFV)
+Realism (no female soldiers..(not being sexist, it just ruins the immersion to me), appropriate weapons/clothing/equipment depending on the faction)
+More support for Hardcore mode
 
Never played BF3, but saw it on youtube. I spent endless hours on BF4. To me, it was the best shooter ever.
Might have told this before; bought a PS3 because of BF3, played that for a bit... 64 player would be nice though? Bought it for PC and had to upgrade my gfx to play it, got all DLCs, spent a lot of time on that. Amazing game... Grand Bazaar :3
 
I want maps designed for the modes. Maps that are Rush only and maps that are Conquest only. Just like BC2 had it. Modern setting would be best. A better class system so that one class isn't overpowered again (Assault recently, Engineer in BF4). Unlock and attachment system like 3/4.

Never played BC2 but BF3 was amazing for that. Seeing totally different parts of a map that never looked like a downgrade in quality... Damavand Peak and Metro Rush was so very cool.
 
No more bunker building!!!
More night maps!!

OMG How did I forget?
MAKE RUSH GREAT AGAIN!!!

P. S. I'm probably the only guy that liked the BF3 moody blue filter!

In BC2 there were maps designed with just Rush in mind and they were fantastic. Arica Harbor, Oasis, Valparaiso, Port Valdez.... so good.

I think there were only a few maps that shared modes. Rush in 3 and after was never the same and Conquest become my favorite mode then, but I really miss BC2 Rush.

Forgot to add that you could also drop buildings on some Rush objectives which was also fun to do. Some locations were broken and would be tank sniped, and others would endlessly rush the objectives with C4 to either blow the building or just toss it at the objective itself.

Flashbacks of the early days in BF3 with the USAS-12 & 12G frags on Grand Bazaar at (B) still haunt me

Fukken RPGs to the higher levels of buildings to bring down debris on dug in enemies. God I love Frostbite.

Ooooof.
Yup, that!
And the 31 bullet FAMAS death lazer also haunts me!
That FAMAS was baller. After they changed it to 26 I went at it from the other side and 'mained' the G3A3, such a slow rate of fire but devastating.

Is there a way to play it still? EA is jerking me around in a Catch-22 while I am trying to get back into my account due to some changes they made.

AEK-971 boy here! 😈
 
I haven't played BFV so I don't know where the series is at but I felt like the guns just blurred into one another in the last few games. Each weapon should look, sound, and feel distinct from the others, which I thought BC2 did really well. I also thought I remember the minimap no longer showing firing enemy soldiers or downed teammates and that was a mistake, too.
 
Battlefield to me had the better online, where it actually made you feel like you're in a war, and their single player continued suit. I did enjoy cod single player more but I felt Bf was getting there, at bf4.
 
Not quite sure, why do a lot of BF players seem to prefer 3 over 4 ? Better quality map ratio ? Bad taste left by the first BF4 months ?

On the 2021 opus, course they got to play safe for this one. Maps, guns and attachments, vehicles... In diversity, quantity and quality, please.
Anyway, i think i'd have loved them trying a spin-off of 2142 going the Planetside way with a bit of Quake Wars.
Pushing graphics not being priority number one, good physics, huge never ending war with variations on objectives, mixing conquest and rush like mechanics and more...
And i feel like the three allegiances thing should be something to consider, with various and meaningful effects.

Yep, rock-paper-scissor. That for me is maybe an even bigger point that Relativ9 seems to make it look like, the rock-paper-scissor concept should be the heart of a class based multiplayer game-design in general. (Quite easy to say, i admit...).

I love real hard synergy between classes and i love the possibility to fully specialize in a role and being greatly reliant on squad-mates. (Got it, i guess, from my City of Heroes days, controller just controlling).
Wanna be a jack of all trades, fine, but got to be a master of none. For real.

I guess 3D spotting got to be, since precise contextual full voiced cues would be too much of a distraction, but it got to make a bit of sense, should be effective only for Soldiers who are already susceptible to have acquired the target by themselves, not through-shit x-ray spotting, and only if the spotter is himself able to see something on his screen.

Oh and yes, SJW issues, better leave that for an another one, perhaps...
 
New Fortnite-Storm like game mode where the map shrinks (becomes more dangerous) over time and keeps the game and its vehicles more intense and dynamic.

Next Gen Only. (MSFT might want to moneyhat the project to make sure they have something that pushes their new system with visual fidelity, not just framerate and resolution)

Modern Weapons with customization.

People who want Fully destructible terrain forgot what happened to BFBC2 by end game right?
You might as well just drop us on am empty field and call it a day....fuck map design.
Also lol at no female soldiers....thats like the only thing I can guarantee thats going to be in the game.


On Topic.
BF3/4 setting...not too distant future so they have modern guns but freedom to create their own guns.
BF1 atmosphere - its still the best BF game when it comes to atmosphere.
BGV update x gunplay.
A return of Levelution.
Maps that work with Rush.
Toggle cosmetics - People who care about that shit can have it, us who dont let us not see red flaming AKs.
Cheesy Campaign - Not every game needs to have message, I just want a popcorn flick that shows off the mechanics of the game and the graphics.
 
- Give me Bad Company 2 levels of destruction again or better
- Stop making the UI shit
- Please for the love of god add a team balancer this time
- Don't reveal the game with boring concept art for 55 minutes with Trevor Noah

For me, just remake BF4.

But realistically, I want:
1. A modern setting game
2. Focus on just a few modes: conquest, rush, and a couple of other favorites, but don't recreate BF5 crap with timed modes
3. Lot of guns
4. Lots of maps. I would be even very happy if they just remastered the best maps from BF3/4/V.
5. No BR mode. I don't need another version of it.
 
Proper destruction. They got progressively worse after Bad Company 2 with indestructible objects, turning destruction into something more cosmetic than gameplay relevant.

Also while I can accept that markers are too OP they clutter their maps too much with (indestructible) objects that make it difficult to see targets
 
I think they need to go back to the modern setting. This will allow them to go "woke" and still make it sensible as long as they don't go "ultra woke." By sensible we can look at the new COD and get an idea of how you do it right. Just need to avoid the whole rein-visioning of real stories and then trying to sell them to us that they are real.

Other things:
Make the TTK like how BF5 was before they ruined the TTK... TWICE. This obsession with ruining the most praised thing in the game was so bizarre.
Have a more traditional upgrade system for weapons like in every other BF game. This weird gun progression in BF5 was not good.
Bring back Tides of War. It was actually a solid idea and VERY generous to its fanbase for what was being offered.
If they do BR, do it like how COD did it NOT like how they did with firestorm. I think firestorm had a chance to really bolster BF5 like warzone did CODMW. Yet it was locked behind a paywall and ultimately sent to die.
Since BF games are known for big maps with lots of vehicles. Add some more variety to the types of vehicles. Maybe more motorbikes or interesting vehicles.
Bring back Grind... ok this is totally just a me thing. I absolutely LOVED grind in BF5.
Crossplatform
Bring back REAL dedicated servers and not this garbage from BF5/1
Bring real destruction... they keep upgrading and making destructible things look "nicer" in how they get destroyed but it doesn't have the impact or pure destruction that we have in BFBC2. At least have a couple maps that have pure destruction.

-Battlefield 3/4 mix Era/guns/vehicles

-Battlefield 1 sniping elements, the headshot sound. (So satisfying)

-Bf5 health system (I liked it, Sue me)

-Better netcode (at launch!!!)

-graphics, sound fidelity

-better maps
 
AEK-971 boy here! 😈
That must have been my second choice... I remember severely disliking the M4A3 or whatever that was for it being real easy. I went full AK since CS1.3 too, love those unwieldy boomsticks.

edit: now that I think of it, it was my first choice, but I played the G3A3 as a bit of a gimmick because I became real good. Not a fan of dunking on people without challenging myself.

Have all soldiers be women to punish misogynist fans.

Seriously now. Bad Company 3. Infantry based, full destruction, helicopters (no jets).

Does set for next gen mean next gen only? Regardless, my primary request for all things next gen is next gen only. I'm more than satisfied with Fortnite for cross gen shooters. Next gen only please.
