I would like to see a survival mode where you would defend a front line from hordes of enemy AI (not zombies) with a group of people. Once that line is overrun the players would fall back, and there would be about 2 lines to hold (3 total). These lines could be trenches or some sort of outdoor environment. After the 3rd line is breached then the players have to defend a walled HQ. The walls and buildings would be destructible, so as time goes on the compound crumbles. Machine guns and anti-tank rifles (stationary, heavier weapons) are stationed at vantage points.

The goal is to defend a radio inside a bunker in the middle. Enemies would come in waves, each wave brings more enemies and new units (scout cars, tanks, planes). The entire compound is destructible, except for the entrance to the hardened bunker (underground or in some difficult to destroy enclosure). The game would end in close quarter indoor infantry battles (as opposed to the outdoor battle in the 3 lines). There can be several destructible artillery pieces to aid in defense such as standard barrage and mustard gas (until the very last stage indoors obviously).

Besides modes that I think will be in the game (Conquest, TDM, Rush), I think there should be a mode not seen in a Battlefield before (such as mine).

What do you guys think?

oh love this, already made a thread on it, need to have it be split screen offline too.

But with everything in WWI, the survival mode in trench warfare could be epic!

Sounds interesting, it’s a mix between Rush & Conquest Assault, but I’d prefer it as Multiplayer though, or having both.

Sounds good…on paper. The game is already saturated with plenty of game modes, thus fracturing the player base even more IMO. Besides, isnt this concept like rush already just there is no AI in rush. Seems like something like this may be better off if there was a co-op like in BF3. Just my .02 🙂

This guy just disagrees with everyone, I don’t think that is constructive. Doesn’t he have something better to do than be a troll in the worst possible way. Hes so negative.

It’s called bigger picture keith. Please stop assuming I’m trolling. I am simply giving my opinion. Thanks m8.

Not a bad suggestion, but I agree with that other guy. It sounds pretty much like what I expect Rush to be in a WW1 setting (except with AI instead of players). I don’t really think it would fracture the player base if it were included, but I can’t see it as something which would be worth the development time. I would imagine it would receive the same reception as that terrible horde mode thing on Battlefront _shivers_.
