Why is it that these forums are filled with people wanting to get rid of everything from previous BF titles? Saying certain things weren’t capable of being done in the ww1 era, but there is so much in every Bf game that we aren’t or will never be capable of doing. ---

Spotting for example? Oh and grenade indicators ---

Vocal minority. Everyone has an opinion, even though they know (I hope) that most of the suggestions won’t get implemented as the people here by no means represent what most gamers want. This is most recently seen by Battlefront, a lot of people said it is the worst game ever, but it sold 14 million copies. If we went by the forums, the game would have been a flop ---

'cause some think realism is cooler, but if that was true most would be enrolled on their local military instead of being weekend warriors on servers What people should be concerned about is balance, a balanced well thought game is always better ---

But anyway Disney was all over battlefront and was made to be a casual game. An amazing looking pick up and play Star wars game ? it was gonna sell for sure. But it has no depth or longevity and it shows. BF4 has more players than this right now. ---

> [@Wolfyp77](#): > > Spotting for example? Oh and grenade indicators Well spotting as it is is a little bit of an issue. People just want to see things improved. Mechanics improved. Spotting isn’t bad but it could use improvement it’s a little too strong. BF1 is said to have re worked and re thought a lot of things we have been used to. ---

I did buy battlefront and played it for a total of 10 hours maybe, and I haven’t touched it since ---

But it has no depth or longevity and it shows. BF4 has more players than this right now. Those stats sites aren’t completely accurate, however, it still sold after all the reviews saying it lacked content. Most of the players are playing non MP games still. It is still the vocal minority… regardless of what MP numbers say. ---

Red Orchestra is a perfect example of realistic shooter based in a World War setting. I want Battlefield in WW1. That’s all. Get rid of stuff in last battlefields that didn’t work out, add some new stuff, but otherwise, stick with your guns with innovations. ---

I doubt PC is a standard to judge all games Battlefront PS4 had 25 freaking-K peak today, on the middle of the freaking week, it’s not even a weekend or vacations for school players… That would be on the list of most played even in STEAM for a non-f2p game (Xbox One had 17.6k) ---

Saying certain things weren’t capable of being done in the ww1 era, but there is so much in every Bf game that we aren’t or will never be capable of doing. Exactly. I would like to see a pedal helicopter in BF1, but this is the reply I keep getting from most people. Not a cobra or little bird, but a prototype pedal helicopter. What do you think about this? Would you like this or dislike it? ---
