What should the DLC’s be should they be WW1 based or like in bad company 2 based on different wars which I think was a great idea since the success of the veitnam DLC if so either way what should the DLC be based on?
They should stay in the WW1 era for DLC.
/\ What he said…/\
Russian Civil War (Red vs White Army )
Boxer Rebellion ( Urban warfare in China)
Baku (Ottomans vs Russians- a reference to BF4)
Also
Finish Civil War (Finns vs Soviets)
Mexican Revolution
and Spanish Civil War
Hmmm. Some good ideas. Russian civil war would be good. Actually US troops were sent in after the armistice was signed (since they were already in Europe). Not many know about the American soldiers in Russia at that time.
guns that are neat
Please no DLC’s for this. I could imagine this game suffering from a lack of attention like HL. By the time the DLC rolled out. Nobody was playing it and they almost have to give it away for free. Until players get the game the wanted for. Keep the life cycle short and sweet.
i think dlc are good, but the way its splits the player base is bad, if there was some kind of way to not split the base it would be a great idea for someone, but i got nothing.
WW1 based, but we all know deep down inside there will be at least a few maps that reference phantom and or 2142.
I’d like to see more maps for Bf1 than there are for Bf4. Or maybe higher quality maps. Bf4’s map design was really good in the Final Stand DLC, but the DLCs before that were of mediocre map quality. Final Stand, and some of the base game’s maps, were the only maps that delivered something close to a classic Battlefield vibe, though in a condensed form.
I hope that many of Bf1’s maps will be more sprawling than Bf4’s.
I don’t mind DLC. DLC for previous versions of the game are great. It’s just that the community did not ask for WWI. It our only option. That option being presented AFTER being presented Hardline (another game the community did not ask for). Since this is true. Players will play Battlefield 1 only to get their battlefield fix. Not because it’s a game they really wanted. So avoiding the DLC will shorten the life of this title so we can get the game we really wanted. Ever ask for something special for Christmas? And you get something else instead? That’s how WWI feels. It’s nice but, not what we really wanted.
A possibility is that DICE chose the WW1 setting to keep graphical demands to a minimum, as WW1 environment could be simpler than modern environments. DICE’s current Frostbite engine can make some really great graphics, but the Xb1 and PS4 are like anchors in how much DICE is actually able to do with graphics. That’s really unfortunate for the PC audience, and I hope that DICE will put more assets into the maps for the PC version, than there will be in the Xb1 and PS4 versions.
Well spoken. Which is why my whole body tensed up when I saw XBox at the beginning of the trailer like “Ooooh No!” I mean when you look at the forums there is no real Xbox community for BF anymore. I think most will agree that the XB is dead. And that’s who they chose to partner with? I mean seriously?!? Nvidia is dropping a 1080 GTX and you partner with Xbox? BF4 and Hardline were in 900p!?!?
A steampunk DLC will be amazing
I hope we get the Phantom Program again. It would be cool to see how they implement it within a WWI game.
Who thinks dlc is good?? I really don’t enjoy paying $100+ for a game that should have everything at release. Or free dlc like GTA 5
I don’t mind paying extra. I acknowledge that games take lots of resources to develop. BF4 was launched on 5 platforms with countless weapons, attachments, gadgets, vehicles, maps. Based on the amount of content, I would say the purchase held value.
I feel like a significant amount of money was wasted on battle packs, Easter eggs, and single-player. Although I have enjoyed single player back to bad company 1, I am most interested in multiplayer and I don’t think BF needs a single player. In fact, I never played Hardline’s single player even once. Maybe if the internet goes down in a storm one day.
But, paying for additional content is fine with me
Any chance of adding a young Adolf into the game as dlc playable in multi-player as he served in world war 1
