it seems as if no one has noticed that the game is lacking alot of content, i just played for 4 hours and have unlocked all the useful weapons and gadgets for the assault kit.
the Assault kit has like three SMG’s and the rest are the same but different attachments. I feel the game is gonna be a Ghost town not long from now like starwars and hardline.
Anyone else agree?
I disagree. The overall game experience is much more entertaining than BF4 was. I’ve been playing pretty much Support, ranked up to 10+ in the Class and now that progression is stalled. It would be nice to see overtime if DICE increases the Class ranks, but it’s no deal breaker for me.
Also have you tried Operations yet?
I not talking about whether this is a better game then BF4, i am saying there is little to no content in the game. a few rounds of conquest and the entire game is already unlocked
A video game doesn’t always have to revolve around gaining some kind of virtual reward. A game should stand or fall on the merits of the gameplay and overall entertainment it provides.
OK with four weapons per class, doesn’t sound like a full title game, sounds more like a $30 game… AGAIN
I just made a post on this too. The game is so shallow and empty that they had to implement each gun three times into the game to make it appear as if there is a wide selection to choose from. It’s pathetic.
Exactly. I never did care for all the progression things they put in games to distract people and make them think they’re earning something. I just want the game to be fun, like they used to be.
Exactly… this is the 3rd time now, first with Hardline, then Battlefront and now with a Official Battlefield title (not a spin off)
the lack of weapons does annoy me. i know there’s dlc coming, but…it’s dlc, i have to pay for it…
adding 4 “different” weapons that are really 4 of the same with different attachments is just dumb.
bf4 had a metric ¯_(ツ)_/¯ ton of guns. People will argue “they’re all the same” but they really weren’t. Ive had a blast getting to 500 kills with almost each gun.
I like the weapons in bf1, but seriously, wtf dice
It’s WW1, pal. DICE fudged history to allow the weapons we have, time-line wise. Maybe the game is about the experience, not the shiny fluff of “future shooters”. This is a game about the beginning of ‘modern’ warfare. You are not expected to survive.
There’s dozens of games that give you participation awards through “unlocks”, that’s the problem. Those games feed the ‘entitlement’ people with meaningless bling just for playing.
BF1 isn’t like that, it rewards team work and playing the objective. You want to be reassured you’re a ‘good player’ by getting rewarded with unlocks.
Unlock mastery of all the assault class weapons. That will force you to rethink your tactics, relearn your class and reevaluate how good you actually are.
Keep in mind BF4 may have had a lot of guns, but only very few were ever used. DICE just saved you the trouble of griping about players using only a certain weapon all the time.
In what way does it reward you? Through XP? XP that goes towards your unlocks?
I’ve had the game 3 days and already unlocked every single gun including all the class rank 10s. It’s pathetic and you’re defending, what is once again, a shallow and buggy release by EA.
Can’t say that I care for the way they did gun variants in BF1 at all, but the number of base guns isn’t part of the problem. Doing fewer guns allows for more meaningful distinction between them.
Says the guy shallow enough to need constant, mostly meaningless rewards to keep him interested? The reason for playing the game should be the gameplay itself, not the unlock system. You’re basically whining it’s not enough of a skinner box.
Yea, and BF4 had like 100 attachments for each gun which all did the same thing. At least with BF1 each variant feels different and adds or takes away from the gun.
Or would it satisfy you if they just added 40 more guns which looked different but handled exactly the same?
BF1’s maps are very well designed and engaging enough to keep the fun factor. The could’ve made distinguished battlepacks a guarantee for each rank up to keep people going but the core content itself is fine.
waaa, I want shiny things to soothe me.
How about you consistently get Best Squad? This game is based on team work, not showing off your sweet new camo for jumping through hoops on a private server set up to get that camo…
i dont want rewards or shinny stuff like you put it, i was expecting more for a full title game. 3 or 4 weapons per class is ridiculous. i want and expect real content like weapons and gadgets, not play the game for 3 hours and have everything unlocked
Well, how much content do you really think there was back in the WW1 era?
The Squad page after the match is the only thing that matters to me.
You don’t even have BF1? Why are you here?
This is ironic considering that it comes from someone who uses the MTAR on a recon class on BF4, how does that benefit the team in any way? Not to mention that from our battlefeeds I consistently have nearly 400 more SPM than you.
How about you get Best Squad, and base your gameplay on team work?
Moron.
There are more weapons. Unfortunately there in DLC. We might see up to 15 more weapons. Unfortunately there in DLC. Unfortunately DLC.
