Should battlefield become a realistic game. Instead of your arcade first persons shooters ---

No, the base game Classic mode and god forbid Normal mode should not be a mil sim. Hardcore on the other hand could go a bit further into the realm of realism. Accurate damage models for all vehicles and weapons would be nice. Outside that no. ---

How realistic? It more than cod somewhat but if you mean it should be like Arma or Red Orchestra those are very niche games that not everyone enjoys. ---

Battlefield has always been and will always be an Arcade Shooter. Very, VERY little of this franchise has ever been “realistic” - no matter how much scrublords try to say otherwise. You can spawn in the sky because of a box, revive people to 100% health after they were blown up by a tank, (BC2) bring down entire sides of houses with just one grenade, blow up a tank with two sticks of C4, be an American soldier and carry a British carbine, a German Pistol, and a Soviet RPG, you can pick up a railgun that one-shots helicopters, every soldier on the battlefield is equipped with a self-reloading parachute, you heal by standing on top of a medkit and revive fatal bullet wounds with defibrillator shock paddles, you can survive a dead-center chest shot from a high-powered bolt-action rifle from 13m away (40 feet). Need I go on? This game doesn’t need to be realistic - the franchise has been awesome for 15 years without nearly a hint of realism. Battlefield is not a MilSim, and never needs to be. ---

I don’t want to have to sit down and put individual bullets into my magazines when someone drops an ammo box. Hardcore mode could be made more realistic though. That would cater further to the inevitable mil-sim servers that will pop up. ---

I could stand for a bit more realism in HC. Mostly more authentic weapon and vehicle damage models. The rest can stay arcade. I’ll even go for the stamina limit. But as I said in another thread most of you asking for more realism couldn’t handle it. ---

‘Realistic’ means: A single bullet hitting you as infantry will make you immobilized, A single tank shell will put you in shock and make you lost atleast 50%HP even hitting 4 meters away from you, A single jet rocket blows any vehicle up especially in a ww1 setting (now I KNOW you jet haters don’t want that), Fuel on everything, Stamina limits, And that’s just the small stuff that pop in my head right now. Nobody will enjoy a game like this, and nobody will enjoy BATTLEFIELD turning into a game like this. This unfortunately is the direction which I think BF1 is going for. ---

No, because this is not a simulator. This is a game. This is meant to be fun. If you want realistic, join your country’s military. ---

Also there are no “Jet Rockets” These are in fact two separate perpulsion systems. Jet engines require an outside oxygen source to burn their fuel. You see these on air planes. Rockets do not require external oxygen, this is why they are used to launch things into space. So that when they leave the atmosphere they continue to burn. ---

I see it in the way that a bullet should kill you straight away depending where it hits you. Or you loose some of your health. Shell shock your vision goes blurry, high pitch sound will be heard. If running through trenches. After watching a documentary. If you were on a straight part about 5 soldiers would die. But if the trench went around a corner only 3 soldiers would die. Refueling of planes, sinkink of ships etc…
