There was some surprise when DICE/EA announced that the next BF game to follow BF4 would be titled “BF1”.
If you were responsible for naming BF games, what would you have titled BF1?
I think I would have continued the numbering and titled the game “BF5”, simply for the sake of consistency and continuity.
Battlefield: 1914
BF1 is fine. It’s not like anyone previously called the first BF game,1942, BF1 so I think it fits.
Battlefield 5. Duh! What were they thinking? Good luck with figuring out what their next title will be.
Ahhhhh it could be BF5… lol
They could make Battlefield Bad Company 3 and title it “Battlefield Bad Company 1” because, technically, that hasn’t been used yet. 
But that would get confusing. No one in the history of planet earth has referred to BF1942 as BF1
No, calling the BF game that comes after BF4 “BF1” is confusing.
Confusing? That’s a bit of a stretch, isn’t it? I know you can read and write, so I’m assuming you said that for affect. Or, you’re projecting what some dullard can’t figure out. Either way…c’mon man
Not when it’s attached to WW1 because they flow together. If it was another Vietnam BF and they called it BF1 I’d agree. However when 1 is in the name of the war the game is based on I think BF1 fits.

Battlefield Genesis. The premium version would be called Battlefield Genesis: Phil Collins Edition 
Yes, because BF3 is based on World War 3 and BF4 is based on WW4. /sarcasm
I would’ve called it ‘Battlefield’.
You cereal m8… they’re direct sequels based on modern wars after BF2. It makes perfect sense.
So based on that astute logic, the next BF game after BF4 (regardless of time period) should be… BF5.
If it’s set in modern times… yes.
If it’s a sillier spin off then make it BC3
If its future 2143
If its another WW2 BF 1944
And yet BF2 was World War 2 so…
Battlefield: The Great War
It certainly wasn’t. I never even played it and know that. Google is your friend homie
