Battlefield 4: The Future of Military Shooters

"The military shooter has been around for the majority of video game history. The concept, execution, and–most importantly–sales of these games is fairly simple and can often show off the current power of gaming platforms. " | Explosion.com

Meh its just COD younger brother

DoomeDx4029d ago

Older brother* Battlefield came out before CoD.

seanpitt234029d ago

Infact battlefield is cods big daddy

Cod is the young lad

SolidStoner4029d ago

battlefield is all about online multiplayer.. it began its days on PC, that was some pure hardcore gaming! COD cant be compered to BF, and its not its brother.. its BF's little bi*h with no legs and with no "get to tha chopaaaa"! :)

I wish BF4 will go back to core only MP... not going to happen since now people want dumb Hollywood SP...

anyways.. No shooter will tell me what power the gaming platform have... just like sales or reviews!

All kinds of games and features show the true power.. PS4 my choice for future!

thechosenone4029d ago

*yawn* I'm tired of fps, want the industry to focus on something else next generation.

Call of Duty is the Little Brother everyone likes cause he is friendly

Battlefield is the Big Brother everyone fears and respects cause he is so dominate.

Arma is the DADDY who is Legendary!

(Red Orchestra is the Red Hair Step Child but very cool in his own way)

Pintheshadows4029d ago

Whta does that make the original Operation Flashpoint?

Rob Hornecker4029d ago

Your comparing apples to oranges with trying to say that BF is like a Cod game. They are two totally different type of Modern combat shooters.

Heres a reality check for you....which one is a "run and gun" style of play and which one needs some thinking and teamwork???

Oh and 1 more thing...Tanks,jets,and helicopters!

Enuff said!

I'm cool with BF and military shooters but TBH, we need Less Military shooters and less shooters in general.

If you are making one at least be original and not do another military shooter.

It's really killing the genre. This inflation is just a bubble that will pop and those who bought all in will be SooL.

sadly, CoD has IGN in its damn back pocket and anything and everything related to it is praised by the CoD fanboys that work at that site. Also, unfortunately, this genre will only go as far as the biased reviewers will allow it to go. If they shoot down great franchises that are directly rivals to CoD, it's only a matter of time before the genre is extinct and the only left is CoD and all of its lag compensation and lack of dedicated servers.

DeadManMcCarthy4029d ago (Edited 4029d ago )

Yep, the PC version of COD died after CODWAW. At least Treyarch supported the PC community back then and there were REAL dedicated servers. Now they're rich enough to not give a damn because they know that morons will still buy COD no matter what. I never trust reviewers anymore, i'd rather judge it myself from gameplay videos.

Battlefield 1, Hardline, BF4 Servers Are Being Taken Offline by Cheaters; EA Silent on Issue

Cheaters & hackers have been causing grief on Battlefield 1, Hardline & BF4 servers, with nonstop DDoS attacks among other things. Unfortunately, EA has remained silent about it.

-Foxtrot759d ago

Course they are silent, they are hoping people flock to 2042

gamesftw250758d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface758d ago

wouldnt be the first time, titanfall 1+2 anyone?

PapaBop758d ago

Not even if they paid me.. EA always do this with old games with less money potential, if this was Ultimate Team, they'd address and sort it faster than stories could spread. Why invest time in their products when they will just dump it in the following years? Then again EA never could see the forest for the trees.

Inverno758d ago

I imagine after those games were given out for free a couple months back through Amazon, anything that makes people go to 2042 is a plus for them

XiNatsuDragnel759d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps758d ago

Nah. I think they can't do anything about it or they want to sink money into fixing it.

Pudge102888758d ago (Edited 758d ago )

EA owns all BF servers so yes, they can do something about it but they refuse to because they dont want ppl playing their old games instead of the new one. Its EA we’re talking about here

pr33k33758d ago

if this happened in 2042, they'd have something to say. which is weird, considering battlefield 1 has more players on steam right now.

Pudge102888758d ago

Its so obvious that EA is doing this or hired ppl to mess up the games so that we’d be forced to have just 1 Battlefield working.

FPS_D3TH758d ago

Honestly it’s probably the devs themselves. They did an update to bf4 way back that kinda made assault rifles doo doo in hopes that people would flock to BF1 cuz BF4 was too perfect

There's a bunch of great shooters on gamepass; both legacy and new.

A recommendation I have is a work in progress preview title called Anacrusis. It's a lot of fun, and has a cool aesthetic.
