I have been playing BF since 1942, and think this game looks great, and fun. But I believe it will have a pretty short honeymoon period, then people will be bored of WWI. After watching a number of hours of footage, live last night, and all the different views today, this game reminds me a lot more of 1943 than it does anything else. Maybe a little Bad Co mixed in there, (which is good imo). This just feels like more of a one off, a DLC type gimmick, I can’t see myself, my friends, and the entire player base committing to this WWI theme for the next three years. They’ve shown that they will have a good variety of weapons, but still, I don’t think this will hold up like previous titles. I’m sure they’re hoping we just buy Titainfall 2 to change things up… I do like some of the new mechanics I’ve seen, but I can’t help but think of how great this game would be not set in WWI. It will be awesome for a time, and I will play, but it will wear of I believe very quickly. ---

I think it was good move to keep things fresh, will all come down to gameplay and map design. COD4 went to WAW and it worked. I think will have more stayy than hardline (limited gameplay) or star wars (poor map design). 1943 was hell fun… ---

“After watching a number of hours of footage”…I call shenanigans on this since there hasnt been that much footage out yet on the game and passing judgement by simply seeing 1 map for a few minutes is a bit premature. Wait for the beta and then decide. ---

the key here is the support EA will be giving servers for tournaments, even locally hosted ones by people that rent them. un case you missed it, the event covered EAs idea to make competition at all levels more engaging. if they get server support and tournament support solved, even for “competitive” scrims that people want to setup on their own, then this game will be around for awhile. no lockons and more infy based without all the moderninity is a good thing for this environment. ---

People are way too hung up on the WW1 thing. If the game is fun and plays like a BF game should, than the WW1 setting won’t matter. I, for one, am very happy to get new weapons and vehicles to play with from this war. ---

OP you saw one map. There are probably something like 25 more maps to come out over the next 2 years. ---

I’m worried about alot of things in this game, but it looks like a great battlefield game to me so far. It looks like it failed pretty bad at being a WW1 game in anything but the setting, but the actual gameplay looks just as good as BF4 so far, which is fine by me. At least it looks more enjoyable then hardline/battlefront ---

Honestly, the EA event wasn’t very good and the game looked a lot better once watching some of the youtube guys playing it without spectator, which always kind of makes it look glitchy anyway. I felt pretty good about it after watching some today. ---

The event last night was like what an hour right? I watched that like three times. Then lets see, Jack had a vid, Level had a vid, X had a vid, Daily Videos had some sweet tank footage, a video from a channel named Stodeh had some really great sniper footage. So yea, watch all those a couple times and you got a few hours of game play footage. It’s out there for you to find yourself. Sure it’s only one map, but I didn’t say this was a definitive review of the finished game, merely a theory of how I think the novelty of WWI will wear off faster than previous titles. > [@Shekel\_Shoah](#): > > Oh look. Another OP with no post history coming in and complaining. Maybe not for BF1, but I’ve been on BF forums since 2142, been playing since 1942. But whatever, I’m just giving my first impressions and perspective as a long time BF player who started playing day one. And yes, 1943 was a great game, that wasn’t meant to be an insult or anything. But as fun as that game was, it did lose it’s novelty after a bit, not like main titles. I will indeed wait for the beta for sure.
