that is all…
Battlefront is shallow. So there is that.
People need to remember the reason Battlefront died as quickly as it began is because of a huge lack of content, something that if they don’t do properly, will happen all over again. And remember we still have yet to see any gameplay of the game because the developers have decided we don’t ‘need’ to see the extra in game, gameplay that they showed to the Youtubers who went to London in a back stage reveal. Not fair and is not appreciated, almost like we are second rate or something…
Worst part of Battlefront for me was the terrible aerial combat & flight model in general. That stuff was no fun at all. BF1’s equivalents need to feel more similar to the previous games in the series.
1.Battlefront was rushed to tie in with the release of the latest Star Wars film. A decision probably made by Disney and EA, not DICE.
2.Battlefront, as a licensed Star Wars game, had to appeal to a much wider audience than your standard, “hardcore”, FPS enthusiast. It had to appeal to everyone from 8 year old kids who are just getting into the Clone Wars, all the way to the 40+ year old dad gamer who watched the originals in theater.
Believe it or not, battlefield overwhelms some people. I’ve taken my PS4 over to friend’s houses that only foray into FPS’s is CoD Black Ops and battlefield was just way too confusing to them. Anything beyond just shooting someone and getting points for it takes entirely too much thought for the average gamer.
I would be shocked for BF 1 to be as shallow as Battlefront is. Just look at every single Battlefield title to date. They stick to the same formula because that formula is what makes Battlefield, Battlefield. It’s what the people who buy Battlefield expect, it’s why we don’t play CoD.

I agree with this completely.
I’m still unclear as to why Battlefront is even in the discussion.
Let’s keep the discussion about BF1. If you would like to discuss Battlefront then proceed over to those forums.

Because BF1 probably has battlefield hero pickups like Battlefront, similar aerial combat, and probably a lack of dedicated servers like Battlefront.
In other words, BF1 is a reskin of Battlefront.
Well Battlefield isn’t part of the SW franchise. And Battlefield isn’t under the direction of Disney. The only thing SWBF and Battlefield 1 will have in common is the Frostbite 3 engine version.
The paranoia is real.

Actually JackFragz and others have said BF1 probably has hero pickups like Battlefront. Oh it also has vehicle specific classes.
The denial is real.
The vehicle specific classes I’m aware of. That’s a good thing. The end of aircraft taxiing and forcing armor to rely on infantry for repairs.
Edit:
just watched JackFrags vid and he doesn’t know what the details are on the “suited armor and Flamethrower” stuff. He made an assumption and then clarified that he didn’t really know.
Battlefield is the Battlefield. I highly doubt that DICE will make small maps in BF1 after so many years of experience. Look at BF3/4. These maps are huge. And screenshot of plane with Alps show us a clear picture how big map is …
P.S. Just do not put your nose down bud. I believe in DICE

Easy. Don’t mix Battlefront with Battlefield 1. Keep it a Battlefield experience. No lack of content or shallow maps, tokens, etc.
