Rampant cheating…and EA/Dice decision to do nothing about it, AND actually make it worse with free game time. 2. Admin servers stacking teams so games kept ending 500-0. These are actually player base problems, and I don’t see BF1 changing either one, so no, BF1 is not replacing BF4. ---

Yes, 3 years is enough; ready for BF1. Although…if they released another 10 maps for BF4 I’d have no problem playing it for another year. ---

Yes it will replace it. Might go back for a round every now and then. I’m glad we’re getting a quite different game and not just another reskinned rehash. Its funny how people complain this isn’t a battlefield game because of the changes but back when bf 4 launched they complained about the lack of changes. Also funny when salty “pros” whine about bf 1 being too noob friendly when in fact the game is just more rewarding of general skill and doesn’t reward having no life and just learning simple game mechanics as much as bf 4 did. ---

Already retired BF4, and nearly every change in BF1 is a direct solution to my complaints of BF4 ---

If every with Battlefield 1 goes smoothly it will replace Battlefield 4 I don’t really like Battlefield 4 that much and the only other Battlefield game I own is bad company 2. So I know it will replace battlefield 4 but il probably switch between it and bad company 2 if there are still people playing Bad company on Xbox 360. Hopefully it will be backwards compatible on the Xbox one eventually… Hopefully battlefield 1 ends up be a great game I am mostly excited for the Operations game mode. ---

I’ve honestly have been waiting for a solid classic shooter circa ww2/ww1. So sick of modern shooters with lasers and lock ons etc ---

I’ll be uninstalling bf3 as soon as bf1 launches. Getting a little monotonous ---

I’ll be playing 1 mostly because bf4 is old news for me. It’s not the worst battlefield, hardline is easily. I still have fun on hardline though so of course I’ll be playing battlefield 4 a little. I still have my PS3 so I mostly just go back to bc2 or 1943 whenever I get the itch for an older one but I can’t imgine myself never touch 4 or hardline again down the road. ---

After playing BF1 beta, BF4 feels like such a manic mess. Every weapon is so effective over every range that random death comes from all sides with no reason. No time for tactics and thoughtful play, just a sequence of tap-twitch gunfights. Well, I try and play tactically, but because no one else seems to see the need, it just doesn’t work. The weapons being less effective in BF1 (and clearly role-specific) really helps with a return of slower paced, more tactical, thoughtful, squad/team-based play which I’m wholly in favour of. People who rush in and try and rely on reflexes and twitch gunplay die, which is as it should be. You need to respect all other gun-carriers and use cover, movement, location, awareness, squad-mates, team-mates, etc. I’ve loved every BF game and I loved BF4, but, yes, BF1 is better and I can’t see myself playing BF4 once it’s out. Maybe still with platoon members who haven’t moved on, but I will be nagging them… ---

yes, as much as i love battlefield 4, the improvements battlefield 1 makes to the franchise will make it my go to battlefield game for the next couple of years. ---

I’m surprised no one’s mentioned ragdolls yet. Man, those things in BF1 were beautiful! In BF4, ragdolls didn’t have any special effect. In BF1, 'nading somebody and seeing their body fly past you was one of the best parts of the game. 😢 _FRICKIN LOVE THOSE RAGDOLLS MAN_ ---
