Now that even Levelcap, XfactorGaming, Westie and a few other youtubers have started to post videos talking about how casual Battlefield 1 is, what do you guys think? Is it too casual, or just right?
Whilst I’m not even sure what ‘casual’ means exactly, if we take it as meaning that it’s not tailored or biased toward classic competitive play mechanics, what I think is: -
GOOD!
I want to have fun when I play a game. There’s plenty of games out there where people can turn down their settings and suck the joy out until it’s no longer a game and obsessively compare ePeenies.
People can organise BF1 competitions, but I really hope DICE don’t give in to any moaning about BF1 not having ‘competitive’ mechanics and ruin it for everyone that’s here to play a game.
Well… Battlefield 1: 11,5k Kills in 5 Months (and, didnt even play for days and weeks during these 5 months since release), Battlefield 4: Roughly 13k Kills in 3 and a half years. Or in Playtime: BF1 = 205 Hours. BF4: 452 Hours.
If the youtubers think it’s so casual why do they keep making content about it? Plenty of new games since October 18/21st yet they all they seem to make is Bf1 videos
Please formulate your own opinion about the game rather then being a mindless sheep that gulps up the spew from Youtubers. They are just like you and I.
To many Bad Players for it to be Casual. AKA Easy.
Honestly I find it Narrow Minded and Selfish that these You Tubers thinks nobody can enjoy the game but them and Try Hards. I welcome all players.
I want Battlefield to be the biggest FPS on the market so servers will stay Full even for Paid DLCs. And if that means making things little streamlined so be it. I Love Battlefield 1 and I will be playing it till the next Battlefield release.
PS. OP you’re being Trolled by those You Tubers. It’s called Click Bait. They Love Battlefield 1.
it’s casual and game is going straight into a pit, not even buying DLC and I don’t care, they made pretty game but no comeback factor (ok if you enjoy this game and have friends playing with you disregard this post, but if you wanna know why I don’t like it I call tell)
You cant compare on kills for example someone hides in a corner you destruct the environment to kill them on Battlefield 1 unlike bf4.
Everyone asks for more destruction but it makes killing or stopping people camping in Buildings easier. I personally feel this is one of the best Battlefields to date (Could do with a few extra things to do)the gameplay is really good though
I think im a casual player, and i find the game perfect for me.
I dont need to play 100 hours to get into a flow, i can switch classes like 6 times without having a thought in my mind like “you just suck at that weapon, do you?”. Switching classes is actually usefull and fun. Objective gamemodes make you run around and not only shoot people. My guess is that a competitive game starts with a weapon which you become good with, then you pick a perk (like a scope) and become good at it, and then a group setup which you become good at. And then win the worldcup …
In this game you have very defined classes made for alot of ranges and situations and such, so theres Always something you can do. Last night i was in the fridaynight server and it was so hectic that i was mostly reviving and healing with maybe 20 kills on the board, and it was really good. I Always liked bf games for the broader setup, in black ops 2 i worked myself to solo silver/gold in 2 months, when i returned to that mode (playing something else ffxiv or w/e) i just got smashed. I hope bf stays like this, i mean in what game is smoke to cover a advance a viable thing? Pilots have an actuall job, and scouting could technically exsist of pure marking targets and counter sniping? Alot of gadgets have a usefull function, lately people have been using the flare gun with the flash, or the trench periscope and that is nice to have. Its nice to have something that is more of a “gamebattlefield” instead of a point-and-click on your screen battle. I use the artillerie truck to beacon off a area, and it took me awhile before i started to actually use the bullets instead of just smoke and gas. Flanking is a thing because of big maps, and although i was cursing sometimes with getting the gadget dogtags, its something i will never be able to do in another game.
So the game is perfect for me, as a casual player. I can even look up my stats on one of those external website and see green numbers and signs everywhere … (first game ever, true)
I actually have a rpg background (final fantasy mainly) and slipping into this game is really easy to understand. You pick up the roles so quickly its almost like having a raidparty, except that dmg is now distance, and area takes a whole new level of thinking lol. Dps become speed, and its in general really nice to play even though you know you will never be the best.
happy to hear that you enjoy the game, I might not have time to game 24/7 but I like to know that my time invested has paid off, and that can only happen in a non casual game, so I don’t believe causal: for everyone, since alot of people likes to feel rewarded for their effort and no cheated via weird balance mechanics/¯_(ツ)_/¯/too simplified a gameplay, I wouldn’t be bashing the game here if it wasn’t that FIFA does exactly the same with its weird momentum and 6-0, 0-6 syndrome when the game decides ‘‘now is your turn to win’’, and since that is in NHL/NBA too (judging from user reports) I believe it’s a global EA’s policy to make the game reward everyone regardless of what they do (here is more nuanced like giving behemot to the loosing faction, or random missing/supression, quick access to everything etc.)
actually, he was statsbashing, what difference does it make how many kills he has in bf4 in comparison to him. none. it serves NO purpose other than “I am better than you”
