But, what about those who don't like BF V?

How on earth is the current dev cycle, rushed? I mean dude, if they cant come out with a quality game in two years of development, they just never will. I mean they came out with better games on a one year dev cycle. Was BC 2 …'rushed"? Or BF 3? I mean their best titles were only one year cycles, yet we’re talking about game being 'rushed", in a two year cycle. This isnt Red Dead you know lol.

In the end, what’s def gonna happen, is after three years, we still get a “rushed” game, being they have no intention of working on Battlefield for three years. They have Battlefront they’re gonna put much more time, and that’s what this is about.

If you think 3 years is enough time for a triple a game on a new engine then good luck. My guess is that the end to end cycle for the next BF will be between 4-5 years.

I suggest you do some research on the topic. I really do.

Next game will have plenty of years under its belt going by old rumors. They said when BF5 was released Bad Company 3 had 2+ years already where BF5 only had like 18 months. One year went by. So BC3 has 3 years now. No BC3 in 2020. So that’s 4 years. 2021 will be 5 years. 2022 will be 6 years. That better be game of the year for 5-6 years.

That’s a silly thing to say.

Obviously, a game requires some playing to discover whether you like it. If it’s a game in a series that you have enjoyed and put a lot of time into, then it’s reasonable to have certain personal expectations of it. But you probably won’t get your money back once you’ve played the game a bit, so whether you like it or not you’re stuck with it. Plus games are under continual development these days. So it’s also reasonable to think you might be able to influence the development. We’ve definitely seen that happen with BF:V where a lot of the players have voiced there opinions and got the game changed. If that relationship didn’t exist it would be the game producer’s who suffered in the end. They have to listen to their customers including the ones who haven’t bought the game yet.

I suppose your angle would be a bit like saying “if you don’t enjoy reading the forums then stay away”. Or “if you don’t enjoy watching your football team play then stop supporting them”. There’d be no football supporters left. It’s equally as silly as telling people not to buy a game or not to play if they don’t enjoy it. It’s just not reality.

@warslag my issue was with the above post. Nowhere did he say don’t post on the forums. You are twisting the narrative which seems to be your MO on these forums.

I’ll leave it there.

If you think I have an ‘MO’ then you have completely lost the plot.
