Is this the end of BF as we know it?

The fact that BF1 has attracted people that were used to other types of FPS doesn’t have anything to do with the present mechanics, but to a very powerful marketing campaign. I don’t remember BF3 or BF4 having such strong advertisement, and BF1 did very well.

BF is not a milsim, so you won’t find much tactics here. But saying that BF1 is more casual and less tactic than BF3/4… please.

Just yesterday I came accross with some funny BF4 gameplays on YT, and I didn’t remember it was so f-easy.
Tap firing from accross the map, low TTK, no recoil, unbalanced weapons, enemies constantly marked on the map… come on.

Oh, and don’t forget about the UCAVs.

Yed, BF1 has Behemoths (which don’t do anything most of the time anyway) and Elites (who die pretty easily); but it also has recoil, a dorito-free minimap, balanced classes and weapons (each one with their role), no lock-ons… anyway, you get the point.

It seems to me that you and your TONS of friends on your friends list who are MAJOR battlefield fans can’t adapt, and thus, stick to easy mode.

See to me, the behemoths, the elites, the snap on aim assist are all BS. But yes, the no lock on and such where and are highlights of the game. The stingers and mobile AA’s that could reach across the map etc were defanitly getting old. Even with all of this, i find BF1 to be WAY WAY easier then BF4. You’d think it would be opposite with the lack of automatic weapons and lock on missiles. But, for some reason, BF1 seems to be the easiest battlefield to date for me and it’s not even close. I’m not gods gift to this game, far from it, but I think for people that played these games a lot in the past, vs. casual’s we can adjust to the gameplay faster than them which. Now, give them a automatic weapon like every other BF game or COD game and it’s a little more of an even playing field. I don’t know maybe I’m all wrong, just trying to figure out why this game feels like it’s the easiest BF game I’ve played to date.
