Im happy with the choice to go with WW I. I personally don’t like how other Combat shooters have moved to the extreme future. My hopes are that Battlefield will Stay away from the Halo aspect.
I am glad too. Really playstation needs to thank dice. I still have a ps3 but said if the new bf was going to go to the future then i will build a pc but if they go into the past i will get a ps4. Well im getting a ps4 now.
it is fantastic that DICE chosed WWI! Its so much opportunity!
Im just glad it isnt WW2,Modern warfare or future.Theyve been done to death.
yea i like this ww1 stuff, something not overdone by the game developers community.
Have to agree, I’ve been dying for a good WWI game. I really hope they do a good job with this.
I am glad they did too. I don’t care for futuristic FPS’s
Something barely ever done tbh 
Its great to see that the community is so psyched about the WW1-theme… I was hoping for a BF5 with lesser gadgets and improved emphasis on teamplay…
But the idea of a gritty, dirty WW1-game without lock-ons is growing on me… I´m looking forward to see more… And also HORSES! 
I hope dice makes out well, they did a great job in promoting something I didn’t necessarily want to see. Conquest is a core component of battlefield, biplanes that require a secondary in order to shoot anything doesn’t thrill me, no heli’s more than likely, and I’m not sure what tank features will be available but it would need to be good to impress. The era weapons, for the most part, are underwhelming.
Additionally they are taking queues from hardline with the gas grenades/gas masks, its hopeful that they’ll take only the good things they implemented like being able to take ammo/health from players and none of the stuff(like the lack of good attack helis, no jets, and all the other that has made hardline a fail to this point).
Personally I think WW1 will alienate alot of players that like playing in jets & helis, I guess the gameplay will determine if it will alienate people that prefer CQC though it seems snipers will have their share of fun rolls eyes
A WWI shooter has been talked about in our Parent Gamer Community for a long time, and I am personally glad to see Battlefield attempt to take it on.
If I did get one wish for the game, that would be for an immersive, factually accurate solo/ co-op campaign that would serve as a good history lesson for the ‘younger’ gamers amongst us that might not perceive the enormity of the human suffering during this conflict.
The level of depravity and suffering during this war is something we should never forget.
And it is the duty of game developers/ film makers/ whoever to portray these periods of human history with a sensitive touch.
