Consider 2017’s Battlefront 2 , a Star Wars property that borrows many of the same gameplay elements from Battlefield . There was an undeniably dedicated amount of work put into the singleplayer story of Battlefront 2 , and yet it was one of the lesser portions of that game. The Star Wars franchise is (more or less) known for engaging storytelling, but for a main IP like Star Wars ‘ Battlefront to have a story mode that’s largely ignored or glossed over, it shows that EA’s shooter gameplay carries itself over an engrossing storyline. Battlefield doesn’t even have an established ethos or universe to draw from like Star Wars , so another story campaign in Battlefield likely won’t do well unless it’s revolution
At the end of the day, Battlefield would benefit on giving the battle royale genre another shot. Assuming the support structure is there, plenty of lasting content is planned, and there’s enough care put into the battle royale’s beginning days, then there’s no reason a Battlefield battle royale can’t succeed or carve its own niche in the genre. Hopefully Firestorm and Battlefield V doesn’t discourage DICE from giving the evergreen shooter genre another
Battlefield has had an issue in the past with destruction not having any recognizable impact on gameplay. Previous titles like Battlefield: Bad Company 2 used to integrate the capability of destruction into its level design, which is partially what made Bad Company 2 one of the best games in the whole series. Games like Battlefield 3 onward tried to replicate the importance of destruction in different ways, but the “Levolution” mechanics ended up being lackluster in comparison. Alternatively, a higher player density in multiplayer games could make games like Conquest a bit more strategic with squad placements. Any capability to add more players on screen/in the lobby is perfect for Battlefield , which thrives on simulating large-scale warf
During EA Play’s 2020 Live showcase, there was an interesting tidbit shared at the end of the show from chief studios officer Laura Miele. Towards the end of the showcase, EA showed off some very early next-gen development footage from EA’s first-party development studios like BioWare, Criterion, and DICE. “Our studios are taking their crazy, ambitious ideas and making them real,” stated Miele. “Every console generation DICE sets the bar for excellence in audio and visual presentation. We are creating epic battles at a scale and fidelity unlike anything you’ve experienced before.” This is almost certainly in reference to Battlefield 6 , or whatever Battlefield title is currently in the works for 2
With the latest Call of Duty taking a Battlefield -like approach to certain modes, with vehicles and larger scale play via Combined Arms, it will be interesting to see if the Battlefield series changes further or sticks to its guns. While fans can expect large-scale gameplay and some level of destruction, as those are core elements of Battlefield ’s DNA, little else is known about the next game in the series. With opportunities for a futuristic setting in Battlefield 2143 , a follow-up to Bad Company 2 , or a return to modern day Battlefield action, anything is possible for DICE’s current Battlefield proj
For players still playing Battlefield 5 , the game recently saw the addition of new skins as October ended. While the wait for more Battlefield 6 details may seem never-ending, dressing up in Battlefield 5 ’s Halloween skins should make it a tiny bit more bearable – even if only for a little wh
That being said, this is just an interpretation of the next-gen prototypes shown in EA Play Live earlier this year. EA and DICE have confirmed that a new Battlefield game (presumably Battlefield 6 ) is headed for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, and currently has a 2021 release window planned. Occasionally rumors have come out about the next Battlefield game, some of which have been proven false , others have no evidence or backing. Overall, Battlefield2042pedia.com it’ll be interesting to see what’s truly in store for the once revered shooter franch
Fans were recently fooled by Battlefield 6 teasers that turned out to be a hoax . A series of cryptic videos were posted online that seemed to hint at the next entry in the series, but after several days of teasing, it was revealed that the videos were entirely fan-made. Players were desperate for an official announcement regarding the next Battlefield game and took the bait from the fan, so this official bit of news on a Holiday 2021 launch window should help the tricked fans c
Perhaps the worst thing now is Battlefield is dealing with an identity crisis. Being the gritty simulatory modern combat experience Battlefield is known for just isn’t enough. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare does that, but also backs that with the characters like Captain Price who make the experience more memorable. Not only that, but Modern Warfare ‘s version of Ground War essentially became a version of Conquest from Battlefield , minus the destruction. A lot of what made Battlefield special, Call of Duty is now doing even bett
