How DICE Is Using Your Battlefield 1 Open Beta Feedback

DICE is making changes to Battlefield 1 based on your feedback.

scottypops3197d ago

People complain about tanks being to overpowered.. it's a tank! It's supposed to be! I also find alot of people complain about how hard they are to take out but the problem is that their is not enough people working together to take them out

Aenea3197d ago

Pfft, I've taken out tanks on my own using light tank grenades and my own ammo pouches!

InMyOpinion3197d ago (Edited 3197d ago )

The mines are also really great against them. Would hate if they nerfed the tanks. You're supposed to sh*t your pants when you spot a tank, it's part of the experience. :)

LAWSON723197d ago

Well it would not have been as bad if the rpg looking gun was in the beta.

skulz73197d ago (Edited 3197d ago )

The problem is that it is really only the assault class that can take them out which shouldn't be the case. I believe every class should have some way of combating a tank - it doesn't have to take it out in one hit. Either that or they should give snipers back the C4 (or in this case dynamite) and they should give support back ways of dealing with the tanks (which is what they say on the changes so thats good!).

I loved the beta and thought that it really did remind me of Bad Company 2, but my main complaint is that they have completely made medics useless with the new revive/spawn system. I felt like teamwork wasn't there in the beta compared to previous games but hopefully that will change when the game comes out.

SouthClaw3197d ago

As others said it's not unbalanced. I loved the game didn't find it unbalanced. It's unbalanced if you cannot be bothered to change class to get the right equipment to destroy tanks. I enjoyed taking out tanks as people do think they're invincible so they all pile in a tank and you end up getting a good 4-5 kills.

Aenea3197d ago

Haha, yeah, I loved those multikills! :)

nbtc9713197d ago

My feedback is that I wanted full admin controls and 3rd party rcon access. Without that, there is no way to build a community. Renting a server that has little to no controls for the owner is a waste of money for the owner. Period.

ShellB3197d ago

I just want to aim with L1. That's all I want.

DICE Needs To Recapture The Magic Of Battlefield 1 In The Next Game

For DICE to succeed with its next game, it has to return to the roots of the franchise. Atmospheric map design, clear and defined class-based gameplay, attention to detail, and total chaos. Battlefield 1 feels like every rock, every glint on your sniper rifle, every falling brick from a collapsing church, has been painstakingly considered. So much care went into the design of the game, from its soundtrack to its costume department. To stand a chance alongside the behemoths of Treyarch and Infinity Ward, DICE needs to recapture what made their old games so brilliant, otherwise it’s all over.

"DICE Needs To Recapture The Magic Of Battlefield 3 In The Next Game"

/Fixed

...on a serious note, DICE needs to remove the Battlefield name.

isarai951d ago

Eh, bfbc2 was the peak for me, only ad dogfighting and the accommodations that come with it. Every BF after that was such an unsatisfying progression system for weapons and gear for the classes, 90% of the guns feel exactly the same when you unlock them, just felt boring in comparison. Not to mention the gimped destruction as the series progressed

Sciurus_vulgaris951d ago

I found Battlefield 1 to be overrated. The gameplay was simpler and less strategic than its predecessors. Battlefield 1 did have a woo-factor, but the gameplay got repetitive faster than Battlefield 4 in my opinion.

porkChop951d ago

If DICE needs to return to the roots of the franchise then why would they look at Battlefield 1? BF1 is overly simplified and streamlined. What DICE should focus on is Battlefield 3 and Bad Company 2. Those two games were the pinnacle of the franchise.

TheEnigma313950d ago

BC2 was the best. they need to get back to that.

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.

-Foxtrot1181d ago

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

gamesftw2501180d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface1180d ago

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

PapaBop1180d 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.

Inverno1180d 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

XiNatsuDragnel1181d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps1180d ago

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

Pudge1028881180d ago (Edited 1180d 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

pr33k331180d 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.

Pudge1028881180d 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_D3TH1180d 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

Grabbed Panzer Dragoon, the Darkness, Conker Reloaded, Burnout Revenge, Time Splitters 2, Fight Night Champions, and Stuntman Ignition.

Essentially some of the classics that I can't get on PC, now that I have a Series S.
