I think Star Wars could be neat, but, well, grittier than usual. And rather cool change of pace.

Don’t take this the wrong way buddy, this is just how I feel. I’m personally sick of star wars period. The whole thing. I had zero interest in those battlefront games or those turds they released on film, in fact I blame them for a lot of the problems we have now in this so called BF. Not just the games, but the whole notion of pumping out crap that debases something once awesome for bucks. Total sellouts.

I’m hoping for a BF game like 2142, so they can make a game how ever they like. Make it balanced without any worry about it representing real life or whatever their excuses at present. I want a fun game above all else. Even better one free from all this micro transaction BS with a clear focus on creating a quality product that will attract people because of that very fact, not because there is no real competition. A good anti cheat and attention to dealing with bugs. I’d like rented servers back so we can enjoy the maps and modes we like and list our favourite ones so we can play them 24/7. I want an engineer class back. I want to remove/seriously reduce most of the stuff they did to vehicles since bf1, go with a Bf3 blueprint instead.

If they put the work in, I’d pay three times the cost of what they wanted for bfv on launch. Might even buy a new rig for it.

Battlefield: Korea  
.

We have not had a Korean War Battlefield game yet. We’ve had pretty much everything else so it’s time for something new. And not just new to Battlefield, but new to video-games in general. I have never played a game set during this period before.  
.

Then the game after that should be Vietnam again. A game set in the wet jungles of Vietnam with the then current graphics would be awesome.

If BFV went back to BF1942, I want BF6 to go ‘back to’ BF2142. I know people want a BF4 reskin, but modern warfare is sort of boring. It CAN work, but there’s so many other war periods I’d rather be in.

Just take me back to modern times. I miss my m240b with actual suppression and all kinds of explosive, laser-guided fun stuff to put the fear of God back into these pilot f-bois.

I would like a modern BF for the next title. BFV has a lot of problems, but still has made good progression in many areas, compared to BF4 (which is still a better game though).

BF4 has totally overpowered vehicles (10 times worse than BFV) and excessive spotting, make a new title without these issues and it could be really fun.

And remove rockets/arty this makes the game awful and introduces a lot of balance-issues in many game-modes, we don’t need these ‘kill-streak-mechanics’ from COD in BF.

On the other hand, I could live with a sci-fi version of BF, but without the Star Wars theme. Battlefront is not BF.

I really couldnt care when or where. All I want is a balanced gameplay with all guns are viable. Im seriously tired from Stg44 and Type 2A spam.

Modern era under a different developer but more than just USA vs the commies.

Some themed games would be cool too like Star Wars without all the hero junk of Battlefront. A Command and Conquer FPS/RTS hybrid would be cool too.

You do realize modern setting means more rockets, right? At least in a futuristic setting, countermeasures would exist against rockets. And yes, I know one existed in BF4, but who really used it? In the future, countermeasures would be much more useful.

I honestly just want something futuristic, but doubt we will have the resources. But yeah, I agree with ya on a bit.

Well, the most important thing for me is simply the fun factor which unfortunately is quite low in Battlefield 5 compared to previous titles. Moreover I hope that they will drop the “hardcore light” approach again, especially attrition has been a bad thing in my opinion since it encourages players to play very passively. In terms of spotting, I hope they will return to a system like in previous games where you could spot enemies actively, the current solution does not feel right in my opinion. On top of that I would of course wish for an effective anti-cheat and some working game balancing.

Since I mainly play as a scout I would like to see a return of the aggressive bolt-action rifle play-style where you could at least stand a chance against other types of weapons. In Battlefield 5 bolt-action rifles are quite unattractive to use since you could play way more effective with almost every other type of gun, especially if you want to play the role agressively. I mean is of course realistic that a bolt-action rifle is more of a long-range option, but playing that passively in order to play out the weapon’s stregths is simply not fun. I would rather quit on a lot of the realism (which is not there anyways) in order to have a fun experience.

In terms of movement I would like to see the Battlefield 1 movement returning. It was slower but in my opinion way better, it felt like things had weight. Moreover character movement was more predictable whereas in Battlefield 5 soldiers can instantly change directions at full speed which is impossible to predict. Also you see many players spamming ADAD or just bunny-hopping which in my opinion is not a good thing.

There are way more things I would wish for, however those were those coming to my mind spontaneously. I definitely do not want to see another title like Battlefield 5, that is for sure.

Pretty sure he means the point and click call ins. I agree with him. Everything like that should be the result of players actions. No automated or ‘on rails’ stuff.

Oh, the squad call ins? Kind of like them, actually. It promotes squad team work to get them. About the only thing that promotes team work in this game, lol…

Dice already make a FPS Star Wars game, it’s called Star Wars Battlefront. And from what I understand it’s had some good investment and is an enjoyable game (although I haven’t played since the beta).

What I want from the next BF game is for them to focus on making the game fun. Cut out the boring, monotonous stuff - the cheap deaths, and the gimmicks. If they got that right, I wouldn’t care what setting the game was… but if I had a preference I would say something set nearer to present day would be a welcome change.
