Battlefield 6....


Battlefield 6(2042); My initial gut reaction for the new game is that it's 'just' a futuristic Battlefield 4 that really does nothing for me or the franchise(imho). Maybe I'll be proved wrong.... 

I'm not new to multiplayer FPS games, let alone Battlefield games. So for now......."Meh"...... Very, very meh! 

A multiplayer game set in the future, given a narrative for that future take but with no campaign....
Right.... 

No campaign is being 'sooooooooo' touted as a good thing. Ball'socks!

They may as well have called it Battlefield Infinite. Yea I don't like that Call of Duty titles futuristic take either, never mind this. Then again CoD Advanced Warfare may be a better likeness... Still.... Why would Battlefield go down that route!!! Still chasing CoD..... BF's CoD complex! Still?!

This new game piles on Battlefield turning into a non tactical Call of Duty path only being a big Nuketown, battle royal wannabe via the hype of shills(SO MUCH BS!)... Without a battle royal mode...... 

Night Ops. Great BF4 mode and good to see it back in another BF game but proves BF6 is BF4 in disguise....

Maybe it's just me but there seems to be so many people 'sooooooooo excited' about it.... All I can do is raise an eyebrow and wonder what the excitements about. Really, whats new about it. It's cloning Battlefield 4 with a futuristic skin. It's a modded BF4.....

Been there, done that. 

Proof of the pudding will be the game balance... Given BF5 is what it is I have no faith. This could all crash and burn fast on it's first day out.... Hello Cyberpunk! It's how 'big' games roll these days.

Dynamic weather...... Big maps with a sandstorm...... I'm still seeing that in Battlefield 1

Battlefield 1 will live on for some time yet! 

A.I. Bots!?! What is this 1999 in Unreal Tournament!?!?! This makes me have no faith in a pure Multiplayer game if it's got a big 'party mode' element to it. Bots for multiplayer but still no super a.i. for a campaign?!! The gunplay balance of this game better be the shizz. I'm really waffling now....

Battle passes..... (insert eye-roll meme of choice here). 

Yea the more I see enthusiastic views about the game the more frustrated I get. It's like all the franchise history be it the games/game modes or the meta are lost to history after 6 months!!! Touting the same ol'mechanics,(metric ton of sarcasm)whatever next, collapsing buildings? OR maybe a player could put C4 on a quad bike and ram into someone..... Imagine that!!!!!!!! 

So yea..... 'Meh' is as good as it gets for now.


Lets see how this all works out.....
