Used to be that Battlefield was further ahead of the game in terms of weapon and equipment customization than Call of Duty was. Back when the game came out, Battlefield 3 introduced a weapon customization system that wasn't constrained to this one attachment, one playstyle method that Call of Duty swore by. Battlefield 3 allowed three particular customizations for most primary weapons in the game: sights/scopes, barrel types like silencers, and under-barrel attachments like grips or launchers. The game also allowed more flexibility in primary weapon choice, instead of Assault classes exclusively using assault rifles or Support classes only using light machine g

While the modern combat setting was enjoyed by fans, at the end of the day it was the clear development focus that made these Battlefield games some of the best in the franchise. Battlefield 6 would be right to return to a modern setting in 2022, but that's not only challenge DICE will need to tackle to bring Battlefield back to its former gl

Insider Tom Henderson, who has previously shared accurate information about the latest Modern Warfare and Black Ops releases before release, is now dropping reveals about the next Battlefield game set to be released sometime in 2021 . Replying to user Usman, who tweeted about his own love and nostalgia for Battlefield 3 , Henderson replied saying, "you'll be a happy bunny next year then" with a little smiley face for his followers. Afterwards, Henderson explained his vague statement clarifying that he was not referring to a remaster of Battlefield 3 - which another (and less reliable "insider" ) has claimed is also happening - but rather, the next installment of the franchise. Battlefield 6 , he claims, is a modern-set game which seems all but obvious anyway at this point given the response to the last several BF games and the record-setting popularity of Call of Duty's long overdue return to a modern setting in Modern Warfa

In a game like Battlefield , Gunsmith almost makes more sense to include than in Modern Warfare . Weapon balance in Battlefield has been spotty at times, but the expanded weapon customization introduced in Battlefield 3 compensated for that in a big way. If anything, expanding the systems that were introduced in Battlefield 3 and 4 into a Gunsmith-like system could help differentiate teammates/opponents from each other. Since every player picks one of four soldier classes, there'd be a lot of overlap between players' choice of weapon and equipment. Classes were constraining to a specific gameplay style, like how engineers were almost strictly close-range fighters with S

That last part might not appeal much to Battlefield fans, not after Battlefield 5 failed to introduce battle royale to the series with its Firestorm mode. Numerous issues, including a slow pace and a bad loot system, resulted in Firestorm being largely dismissed as one of the worst battle royale games out there. Of course, with battle royale being much more prominent now than when BF5 first dropped, there’s always hope that DICE has taken Firestorm’s failure to heart and is focusing more on improving Battlefield ’s battle royale experie

Battlefield has the capability of generating a successful battle royale game, but the support and care has to be there. Additionally, the franchise needs to bring something new or unique to the table to encourage players to opt-in. Where many aspects that made battlefield 2042 Walkthrough unique before are now core portions of most battle royale games, there's still signature aspects of Battlefield that DICE can take advantage of. Regardless, if fans lost a little faith with Firestorm's failure , there's absolutely a chance for the next battle royale mode to be bet

To no fault of the Battlefield series as a whole, the mode simply fell flat due to its lack of evolution/innovation in a packed genre filled with different takes on the core mechanics. Part of that was Firestorm shared a lot of the problems that Battlefield 5 had overall as well. Regardless, the mode fell by the wayside as other core Battlefield modes had continued support. Now Battlefield 6 is aiming for a 2021 release, and another version of Firestorm may return. If that's true, the series will have plenty of contenders to battle for battle royale supremacy in the next-generat

Presently, there isn’t much that’s known about EA and DICE’s next military shooter other than it’s confirmed to be in development for PS5 and Xbox Series X. Much of the discussion around it, as such, has been just speculation and rumor, with the most popular currently being that Battlefield 6 will return to a modern setting , following Battlefield 1 and Battlefield 5 ’s detours in the World Wars. But as far as actual gameplay information goes, that’s been nonexistent so

Lastly there's that secret sauce to differentiate another Battlefield battle royale from its competitors , which is something very hard to narrow down or articulate. Warzone has the Gulag to serve as a player's second chance in each match, Fortnite has its iconic building systems as a core gameplay mechanic, and Apex Legends has the hero abilities that players can utilize. Firestorm never really had anything special like that, in many ways it just emulated the base battle royale structure. Battlefield 's next battle royale needs a unique mechanic(s) like this to prove its difference in an enticing
