Support NeoGAF

[Renekton]

Heres a crazy idea..BF4 is actually tons of fun now...how about just supporting that game with new expansions for the next couple of years....whats there to lose , make enough content for a full new game price but make it be a new expansion, you already have your huge playerbase.. This way we can keep the stats and current setup and can still play on servers with older bf4 content and new expansion content at random..like with the dlc.

you can even have a bf4 vietnam expansion like the bc2 one or ww2 expansion

BF4 was designed with PS360 in mind. A lot of things were compromised due to memory shortage.

Would prefer a clean break from crossgen era.

No more future shit please

Bad Company 3. Nothing else matters.

[RaptorGTA]

Bad Company 3 or return to WWII...also the game shouldn't be released till 2017 or later.

Edit: Yea I would like 2143 but I dont see how it will differ from Star Wars enough. I'd rather go BC3 or WWII and then jump to 2143. Allow for more ideas to form...

 

[axb2013]

The genre is riding the futuristic train with no hint of change anytime soon, BF won't be an exception. People of authority within studios/publishers are pushing the hard to balance gimmicks like jet packs, drones and cloaking devices.

Personally I prefer rifles, muskets and even crossbows to shoot others rather than guiding RC toys and missiles into them. It will be a while before the industry realizes that gimmicks aren't necessary.

 

[Dysun]

WW2 or Near Future

Just don't make another modern times BF at this point

 

[RichiRamjag]

If we don't get 2143 we riot

This. No WW2 games please.

Bad Company 3 or return to WWII...also the game shouldn't be released till 2017 or later.

Edit: Yea I would like 2143 but I dont see how it will differ from Star Wars enough. I'd rather go BC3 or WWII and then jump to 2143. Allow for more ideas to form...

Because they play differently. Star Wars looks more like garden warfare to me rather than battlefield.

 

[TheContact]

Should stay modern. Future is dumb and the past is overdone

 

[PeskyToaster]

WW2. It's time Battlefield, it's time to come back home.

 

[Emedan]

What am I looking at here

Listen to this man, he got impeccable taste - granted it's a single player game but there's no better medieval experience out there if it's what you're looking for

One of the best mods (Anno Domini 1257) for one of the best games (Mount&Blade: Warband) ever. It's mainly a singleplayer experience, though.

 

[Mass One]

Bad company 3 but it's the WW2 prequel story about the commandos. Or the bad company squad relatives in WW2.

 

[FLAguy954]

Nah, WW2 is boring. Its been covered by just soooooo many shooters.

Future is the best cause it allows for more imaginative and creative weapons and vehicles

WW2 and Modern are both played out. I agree that 'near' future is the way to go as they can be a lot more creative with the weaponry.

WW3.

Crossover with Fallout.

Random question but how would you feel about alternative history?

 

[djshauny]

WW2. Not buying another futuristic shooter ever again.

 

[DeepEnigma]

Either back to WW2, or a post apocalyptic tribal set up where you have to scavenge for things like TLoU, and have vehicles and whatever left over war machines kinda like Mad Max.

 

[MilkyJoe]

WW2 or Vietnam, though I'm not sure if the latter would be well received in the US.

No more future stuff, it needs to step aside from what's already on the market.

The Teddy Bears vs. Unicorns War of 2182

 

[Creaking]

Either back to WW2, or a post apocalyptic tribal set up where you have to scavenge for things like TLoU, and have vehicles and whatever left over war machines kinda like Mad Max.

They kind of messed with that a bit in the aftermath expansion in Battlefield 3. Not a great deal, but all the maps take place in Iran after a major earthquake. The area is devastated, the soldier models are damaged, the vehicles are makeshift, and they even had an improvised crossbow weapon.

But then you also had all the basic guns and equipment, so it wasn't that different from the norm.

 

[WillyFive]

No more future shit please

It's going to be future. This gen is all future, just like last gen was all modern, and the gen before that was all WW2.

 

[Dabanton]

Random question but how would you feel about alternative history?

I'd be open to that.

Would at least mean a slightly fresher approach.

 

[Michanical]

I don't know if you're joking but that sounds fucking awesome.

Right!?

I've got so many ideas! Teleporters and Teleporters disruption. Drones and automation. Hacking. Jetpacks on Mars. Unique gravity on maps or in/out if buildings.

Dice, it's obviously the right decision.

 

[Beaniedude]

Dinosaurs man.

I want to ride a dinosaur into battle.

 

[KillaKalz347]

Lol

I wonder how we all survived before Modern Warfare came out

Yeah because Modern Warfare was the first shooter set in the present day. Battlefield 2 didn't do it way before Cod.

 

[pelican]

Toss up between a return to

BF Vietnam
BF 2143

 

[pelican]

alt history WWIII taking place in the 80s

Some NATO vs Soviet Bloc action.

 

[SoldierIce64]

Vietnam would be interesting to see with an upgraded Frostbite engine. Near-total destructibility in a jungle setting could open up new strategies and gameplay styles.

 

[kai3345]

Alternate-history WW2

 

[Moon_frogger]

2143 is the obvious direction, and I'd love to go back to that setting. I need my proper Titan Mode fix.

2143 seems obvious keep in mind they are making star wars. I know it's not the same but it's still a sci fi multiplayer centric shooter. They might be fatigued with the setting.

 

[thesuperfunk]

the one with dinosaurs.

Having read more of the thread, there are people posting who know what's up in here

WW2 and please make it a solid game. No gimmicky features.
