By now, we all know that Hardline and Battlefront really have flopped and there is a lot of reasons why. If we don’t want to see BF1 follow in its footsteps, I think that we need to provide our concerns here but also OFFER potential solutions so that DICE is not scrambling for answers. Don’t just say we don’t want a certain feature, but offer something up that can replace it. If that solution is popular, DICE might see it and consider implementing it.
Didn’t play hardline - game didn’t appeal to me. Do play battlefront - and I only play it because it is starwars, if the BF1 plays like battlefront - I might be out.
My largest gripe on Battlefront is kind of moot, as BF4 already has some mechanism in place for team balance. Nothing worse than getting stuck in a one sided server and not being able to switch without logging out.
Battlefront was never intended to be like battlefield. The only thing they had in common was DICE. Hardline should have been a DLC for BF4 IMO since the launch was so horrid.
Well I’m still playing Hardline the game is too much fun ..
You got it backwards, homes. Three years after release with continuous support and BF4 is boring as hell. Hardline, on the other hand, has been great from day one. BF1 should be more like BFH (especially the TTK), but with larger maps and more semi-auto weapons and less like BF4 (viz., really, really boring).
well and for me its was the opposite!? hardline never bought it, battlefield played until a month ago… but bf4 is still very enjoyable. I don’t get it why its boring cause it is all from boring!
I went back and played a few matches on BF4 over the weekend and it was like camp city everywhere I got bored quick and was back on hardline having a blast BF1 needs to have the fast TTK I’m with doon.
Very boring. It’s like Lord of the Rings: you have to run for hours to get from one objective to the next only to have the six elves next to you get blown away by some orcs. “We’ll never make it!” “We made it!” “Oh, this sucks, but I will carry, Mr. Blueberry.” “Whatever.” BFH, on the other hand, let’s you smoke enemies while blaring Run the Jewels or KRS. That’s a game.
No it should be mainly bolt actions. To stay kind of true to the era. Idk about ttk just cause I never got hardline.
Fair correction.
i played with the forumfielders platoon and we won allmost every match. we even had the time to do some stupid idiotic stuff and even then we won 
This title should read “How to prevent another game from being what I don’t like”.
Please don’t generalize that players didn’t like these games, or that they were bad. They each outsold their projections by a mile.
