Tbh BFU titles means that despite bf1’s state they are gonna make another battlefield rather then take their time between releases to ensure everything is up to par rather then rushing it (again)

The last line…“You will be fighting on the american homefront as well which will be the first battlefield game to feature this since hardline.” There is one game between HL and “BFU,” so there is absolutely zero reason to note this.

Also, sounds fun.

To be fair, if it turns out to be true it’s not like I’m going to complain too much. That setting mentioned in the screencap is pretty much exactly what I’ve been wanting from a Battlefield game for a long, long time. WW1 is fine but I’d make the jump in a split second if they came out with a 60s-70s themed BF game.

Yeah it’s a bit weird; armoured fury dlc for bf2 was the last (and only time) it was on American soil. Technically hardline counts but it also technical doesn’t

It’s an interesting concept; how bf1 pans outs and how swbf2 also turnout will be big decides if the 2018 is even worth a second glance

I’d play that, if it plays better than BF1. And has good rented server support rather than this current crap. But I’m not pre ordering anymore. Also, why do they bother with the campaigns? Does someone actually play them?

Yup.  
Campaign is always the first stop for me. I know I ain’t the only one.

It sounds interesting, to be sure, but I’d sooner believe that hot moms that want quick sex now live .2 miles from my current location than this.

Also, 64 vs 64? Please expand the maps back to BF2’s size. Better yet, 1.25 to 1.5 times BF2’s size for that many people.

This is one of the two directions I wanted DICE to go with Battlefield 2018, so I hope it is true.

Campaigns are alright yea..

I thought the hardline campaign was a bit weird with how it was done, Kinda like a US tv series where the whole game was basically “season one”.. Each mission had a bit before the mission started “Previously on Hardline” which just turned out to be a recap of the last mission’s events.

BF3’s campaign was all over the place really, One minute you’re in a tank, another mission you’d be in a jet, Another mission you’d be parachuting out of a plane.. But the odd part of BF3’s campaign was the fact there was no buildup.. nothing linking the different missions other than a soldier in an interrogation room just talking about “what happened next” which triggered the next mission.

It just felt like an afterthought IMHO.

BF4’s campaign was better in its execution.

BF1’s campaign thus far has been the best of them all, Especially when you died in the first mission or two of the game, It would come up with a randomised name + date of death to try to give you a feeling that each individual soldier you died as, Had a life, Had a life before the war and such.

BC2’s campaign was Original and fun also.

In all honesty, after the leaks that BF1 had back in late 2015/early 2016. I don’t really know whether or not to trust in such “leaks”, I still remember when AlmightyDaq leaked BF1 in almost perfect details that matched up with the final game.

If I have to judge, I would say there’s a 30% chance that this leak is real, and if it proves to be so, I would definitely not complain about the setting.

It looks like we just have to wait until some retailer messes up or a known industry insider says something about it.

Since this game is laggy, buggy garbage, why would you think the next one is going to be any better.  
Dice refuses to fix the issue with this game and here you are talking about what you hope is in the next one.  
Because this is the quality that Dice chooses to put out, this will be my last game by dice, I don’t care if it’s about the final battle of the second coming of christ.

Always campaigns first and on hardest difficulty

Hardline was alright but alot of the tv thing was lost on most people playing the campagin all in one session. I mean I tried to play it one Ep at a time; nope.

Have you read the Battlefield 3 book? It’d make a lot of sense (than be annoyed that the book isn’t the game…)

If this is real im going to say no on season pass and first day purchase. Ill play the beta if its offered but BF1 has soured my enthusiasm for anything DICE related at the moment. BF1 while successful is a failure due to a thousand small cuts.

This rumored game would presumably be being developed by DICE Stockholm, DICE LA is doing BF1.

If any of that is true I certainly won’t be buying it. Sounds like a CoD knockoff as they did the same exact thing. 1946-2020 is nowhere the Battlefield series should go.

An interesting concept if it comes to fruition, certainly the sort of setting that I fancied. Technologically speaking I would have preferred another 10 years or so but never the less…
