So many whiners of ‘oh we didn’t see \_\_\_\_\_’, ‘this looks too \_\_\_\_\_’, ‘seriously DICE? Why \_\_\_\_\_’, ‘maps are too \_\_\_\_\_’ are at large after the gameplay reveal yesterday!

I mean C’MON!!! This game is in PRE-ALPHA!!! The chances are that things will CHANGE anyway!!!  
Be CAREFUL for what YOU wish for!!! Take a look at STAR WARS: BATTLEFRONT, as a COMMUNITY, the MAJORITY of FLAWS in that game was because of US making reckless remarks about its GAMEPLAY FEATURES!!!

So, I ask you, do YOU want BATTLEFIELD:1 to be like BATTLEFRONT??? THINK before you SAY!!!

Thanks for supporting my point, ideally, everyone on this forum should understand what I’m saying and take it into heavy consideration, I want this game to succeed.

Yeah I see a lot of negatives about a game we know next to nothing about, I say let’s see what we get before comment are made.

SWBF was NOT meant for BF gamers. if you were dissapointed, well then, you didn’t think it out before you bought SWBF.

SWBF was meant for ease of play for those who do not care about teamwork or traditional BF roles.

I bought it but I sumised what it would be and I wasnt disappointed with it.

People comparing Battlefield games to SWBF should realize that they are completely different games for different audiences.

Saying this for about the millionth time

Anyone who thinks the game is pre-alpha ,should reevaluate his capability of thinking

The game is finished.All that’s left are some final graphics touches or number tweaks.That’s it

We have 4 months left for release,and 1 month out of those has to be spent at the finalizing stages.Even if they wanted,there is not enough time to change anything fundamental,these things have a process

The game will release like you see it.Nothing will be added or removed.And this has be proven true from every game i have played for the last 5 years

This made me laugh, it is in Pre-Alpha, in literal terms.

People like YOU were saying the same thing about B3, and B3 was released October 25, 2011 in glorious PRE-ALPHA. Unless you are on DICE’s payroll, stop making excuses.

The time to complain is NOW. When I buy a game I want to be PLAYING IT. Not pointing out all the games flaws only to be banned by a mod for being too right.

People like me? I didn’t say this type thing about BF3, I’m just saying that this game deserves a chance,  
It’s fresh, it’s unique, and we should use true constructive criticism, in a non malicious way.

BF1 looks a lot like SWBF, probably because of the same engine. Players movement, game pace, colorful textures etc.  
I wish BF1 is more like BF:BC2, BF:Vietnam or BF4

You are supposed to criticize it in order to help them make the game they want to make. An enjoyable experience.  
You are the problem here.

This is one thing I will stand for, the first person movement is very SWBF-esk.

I enjoy playing SWBF.  
So IF BF1 ends up playing like SWBF (or BFHL for that matter), I’ll be very happy.

I’m here to complain about whiners, people who yack on in a malicious, non constructive way,  
not people who use civilised, constructive criticism.  
You misunderstand.

I mean, I’m not saying SWBF is a bad game, just that it’s too basic to fit into the ideal BF1 formula.
