Eww, no. Please no.
As many have suggested, a Cold-War era Battlefield game would be a great setting. Specifically, the 60’s and 70’s. A lot of fairly iconic weapons came into being in that time period. It would satisfy a lot of people who want a modern Battlefield title, and would allow for nearly any setting which is something BF:Vietnam would not.
#BattleCoD6 the prequel sequel remake world war 4 all over again
What do you mean by any time soon? As in the next game in the series won’t be modern or that a new game won’t be coming out for years?
The futureistic setting of Battlefield was Battlefront
ALso, The Next battlefield should be set in the cold war era, spanning from the 50’s to the 80’s . Why so long? Its simple, implement, battles from Korean war (Never been done in a FPS game) , tgen you have Nam, you have Rhodesia, South American Drug wars(Yes US was involved in conflicta in SOuth AMerica) Then yiu have the bay of pigs, Plenty African conflicts, then you have the Iraq war of 1989-1991, then tge most important, the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. The weapons and gadgets of the era, arent to crazy like Battlefield 4
Yeah, being able to turn on radio and select from a list music tracks to listen to in any vehicles was one of the things I really liked in BF Vietnam 2004.
Not sure what would be epic about vietnam. You’re literaly limited to only one country for maps, and most of the maps will be jungles jungles and jungles. I also vote for Modern warfare since it opens up for a great variety of maps with their own setting.
Meaning EA wants to avoid having to license modern firearms, vehicles etc due to previously losing lawsuits and having to pay the companies unknown sums of money.
battlefield: war on terrorism. oh, it is gaming gold. let me know when you want my bank account number for deposit.
IMO, if EA lost the Starwars BF IP (Because they are killing any SW game that any of their devs make) I think it would give them a good push to remake BF2142 or maybe hybridize BF perhaps with some NPCs like in Battlefront (original) to make bigger and grander battles.
I think that would be really amazing to see 64 players and 64-128 NPCs in larger maps. Constant shooting, tank fights and air combat. Really put the scale of combat into a game.
Bad Company prequel set in Vietnam; Best idea ever
No mate it wouldn’t and I don’t think they do.
I’d be keen for the Cold War iteration as it’s been said it covers many wars and many locations. That could be a game that if done right would benefit from a live service
Dare I say… Korea!
Wake up, what absolute pure uncontaminated rubbish
What? How is that rubbish!?
Dude the world was at war, with tons of Mercanaries, and covert operations against the USSR, you had Vietnam, Korea, Rhodesia/South Africa, Cuban Missle crissis/Bay Of Pigs, South America/ Panama/Columbia, and the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.
Cod Black Ops 1 covered alot if the Cold war, and people loved it, we need more of that cold war era, and the stories from the time as the reflect alot of our world today
I’ll poop my pants in protest if BF6 is another trash period piece… No Vietman, no Korea, no Battle of 1812… MODERN.
At this point it probably will be a futuristic, modern type game.
But, I feel a cold war gane would be amazing, its modern, but not to crazg with technology like todays soldiers, but not to far behind like soldiers from WW2 either.
Have and wait and see
Just make battlefield 4 with modern engine and graphic pls 
Let’s have BF BC
Cavemen tribe wars. Imagine the plethora of content! There’d be loads I promise.
