I’ve still got a good feeling about new stuff in BF1, especially after seeing this: [![Video: Modern WWII Games](https://battlefieldforum.co/uploads/default/original/3X/b/2/b20dce59524de3c7ec6619f469f5cc4ba97c1fa5.jpeg "Modern WWII Games") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDvlO9-dxnE) ---

Bf1 still needs character customization. It’s easy to implement. Cod ww2 had basic heads to choose from. They won’t do it now. It’s been asked for for too long now. But in my opinion, that’s been the biggest let down for bf1. Campaign = Play as a predefined soldier. Online = Play as a massively cloned predefined soldier. Not good enough in this day and age of gaming. ---

Then they take it to extremes in BFV, letting you romp around as a Viking biker _insert banned historical term here_. I _really_ don’t get it. ---

It is good enough for those of us who don’t think like kids, wanting to dress up a doll. Seriously. I will never understand why people care how their game character or guns look like… ---

Don’t forget issues like the lighting bug still exist. They are not likely to be doing anything else with BF1, unfortunately. Wasted potential for sure. ---

If DICE can make a fictional ww1 **and** ww2 game that sells, I’m sure they can find a way to tie in dinosaur combat in a somewhat appropriate manner. ---

You never noticed blinding light when you look through a window? Some times it’s like having a search light aimed at you. Look up _Light bug_ in the forum search box You will see loads of threads about it. You must be the luckiest battlefield play in history if this has never happened to you. 😃 ---

Never considered this as a bug… DICE have acknowledged it is over-the-top in many situations. They even ‘fixed’ it once, I think, then the fix got undone. There are definite buggy aspects, though, things like when the roof of a building is blown off, you still get lighting contrast as if you are in a dark room when you stand inside the ruins looking out. I think the idea of the effect is good, but it’s not done very well. ---

Thanks, I was trying to think of how to explaining the bug in a coherent and articulate manner, but it to early for me and all I could think of replying was “it sucks” ---

IMHO, two things that would make BF1 much better: - Remove AA Mortar Truck and Ilya Muromets from Operations - Add Balkan DLC with Serbia as a Faction and 1-2 Operations (Serbia vs Austro-Hungarian Empire). For this I would gladly pay 15-20$ ---
