Battlefield 5 – New Part of The Shooter Series For 2018 Announced

US Colossal CEO Andrew Wilson talked about some of the games currently being developed with the Frostbite Engine , and the name of the DICE shooter (software house owned by the powerful graphics engine) appears among them. A hypothetical Battlefield 5 , therefore, is expected by next year.

[Jinryo]

Hope it's gonna be Bad Company 3.

[Team_Litt]

Lol don't do that to yourself. Bad Company is gone forever. 🙁

[Crazyglues]

Why the hell didn't they just Remaster Bad Company 2... EA has to be the dumbest game company ever, Bad Company 2 Remaster does 11 to 14 million easy and only takes 3 months to re-master, could have been out with Star-Wars this year.... 2017

Guess they hate making tons of money for there stock holders... Unbelievable...

[andrewsquall]

Put that alongside Need for Speed Underground 3 (I personally think the series is thrash but the donkey masses of the early noughties know what they like) and Skate 4 as the dumbest cash machines that EA just bizarrely don't want to invest in.
Yeah another garbage, story based, Frostbite NFS game just like NFS The Runs is what everyone asked for.

[KillBill]

@Crazyglues - that is a bold prediction seeing that all Bad Company games combined have only done 10 million.

[vickers500]

There was an article a while back with someone asking them to remaster bf3, and they basically gave the answer that they don't do remasters, and even if they did, they'd remaster bf4 (even though that was the newest entry).

The impression I got is that they actually believe they're the type of company that are above that sort of thing. But they've unfortunately held true to their word.

[SolidStoner]

well the best thing would be to make ALL previous maps of battlefield games REMASTERED and playable in supported Hardcore mode... imagine Multiplayer remaster for BF 1942, Vietnam, BF2, BF1943, BF BC, BF BC2, BF3, and BF4 maps, combined with ALL the guns.. that game would sell better than anything!

off course they will make arcade shooter for kids instead, internet will be angry and sales will be as always lower or the same... because EA is too blind and none of them are gamers!

[SuperbVillain]

Why though? I see your comment and i see all the agrees you have...why is there a general feeling that badcompany is gone forever? I loved badcompany 2 that,was the prime of my competive gaming. I made so many friends at the midnight release and getting into the beta still felt kind of special back then. Would be such a shame if they dont bring the serries back

[majedx9]

BF4 is good just hope EA do something about the servers cunts " you cannot use this weapon 🤓if you do I will kick you out"

[boomtube1987]

I hope its modern day. Im done with future and past wars.

[Vlaitor]

I mean, BF4 and BF3 fills the gap quite nicely, even Hardline... The last 3 installments are modern shooters.

[boomtube1987]

@Vlaitor yeh and BF4 was good. I want a Free For All and Gun mastery game mode back. I want better close quarter emphasis built to play on those game mode. Battlefield need to build a battlefield for large and small scale warfare. Start getting out of its comfort zone.

[morganfell]

"...BF4 was good"

BF4 was good 6 months or so after launch. That rubberbanding/connection issue persisted on every platform for 6 months or more. I remember 2 months in EA stating there would be no more DLC until the issue was resolved and then they continued to promote China Rising while the problem still existed. The DLC launched and we still had the problem for more than 4 months. Yes eventually the game was tight but what they did with BF4 was inexcusable.

Also they would launch overpowered weapons for the early adopters. This made everyone run out and purchase the new guns. Then later they would nerf those same guns when they went mainstream...so they could introduce new weapons that were overpowered.

[Altovoltage]

I agree.

[gums007]

Boomtube1987- Then when they make a modern one, you will be done with that too right? Millenials i tell ya...

Also, If you want free for all and gun mastery mode back, just go play any cod game. You don't seem like the battlefield type player if that's what you crave in a shooter.

[narsaku]

Where have you been the last 10 years? Modern is ALL we've seen.

At this point I'm ready to see COD/BF die and someone come up with a new friggen idea for once.

[subtenko]

isnt that COD modern warfare? Or was that series not based on the now?

[Vegamyster]

They gave such a dumb reason 2 or 3 years ago why they haven't made it yet, basically they don't know why people enjoyed them. I don't know, a fun campaign & slower but tight multiplayer battles where destruction plays a big role in the game is pretty straight forward lol.

[InTheZoneAC]

pretty sure the destruction in bad company was better than it was in 3 or 4, and I remember wondering why are they talking about destruction in these games when it was better in BC...

[InTheZoneAC]

https://www.gamespot.com/ar...

[Vegamyster]

BF3 had virtually none and only the only map in BF4 that had destruction like in BC2 was Golmud Railway.

[NarooN]

Nah. No guarantee they wouldn't muck it up. EA admitted in an interview several years ago that the reason we never got a BC3 is because pretty much all the creative directors and talents responsible for those two games left DICE after BC2 came out.

[Yui_Suzumiya]

:(

[Yui_Suzumiya]

That's what I've been waiting for!

[annoyedgamer]

It wont be

[D3TH_D33LR]

Prepare for butthurt then.

[seanpitt23]

I am guessing it's going to be called battlefield 2 and will be set in the ww2 era which will be better than ww1 due to the more advanced guns and tanks etc..

[JEECE]

The problem is there is already a Battlefield 2 (it came out 2005ish and was really the start of the wave of modern combat games). Battlefield 1944 would make a lot more sense as a name.

[CrimzonRazor]

It would have to have a different name

[_-EDMIX-_]

Not really.

They could call it Battlefield 2 in simply have a subtitle of 2018 in regards to an asterix when seen in an archive, trust me it's not as serious as you might think, you're also talking about a game that released well over 12 years ago.

Mind you for all you know it could be called Battlefield 2 (subtitle)

[EazyC]

I think BF 1 is too close to WWII already (let's be real, it's a VERY sophisticated reimagining of WWI) to justify that.

[Allsystemgamer]

BATTLEFIELD II
**1944**

[CrimzonRazor]

They will not resuse 2, if they were going that route they would simply call it battlefield WWII.

[XiNatsuDragnel]

Nice

[Mgsilentfate11]

[franwex]

Ice

[winter_hill]

Entice nice mice with rice spliced with diced ice.

[BigKev45]

That last reply does suffice, as we hold up Team_Litt in a heist. Don't forget, I'm twice as nice, with the mic device.

[jc12]

Hell yeah, love BF.

[awdevoftw]

I've always liked battlefield 4 better than battlefield 1. Here's hoping they make it an epic modern combat shooter.

[Sircolby45]

Couldn't agree more. I hate what they did with the gunplay in BF1. Random bullet deviation is extremely annoying.

[ParanoidFreak]

BC3 or BUST.

[MrJay]

Battlefield 2143 or Battlefield in WWII

[Weeblordbad]

I felt sooooo sure that BF1 was going to be 2143, so I'm not ever holding my breath for 2143 ever again. :p

[RememberThe357]

I also think with Battlefront EA has the si-fi thing covered. Feels like Battlefield will be trying to for a more rugged feel.

[Summons75]

I'd laugh if they do a WW2 setting next and run circles around the already failed COD WW2.

[_-EDMIX-_]

Completely unnecessary

both games are very different from each other

[JEECE]

Battlefield 1944 please. I'd love a much more updated take on some of the BF 1942 maps, and BF 1943 was an extremely disappointing effort.

[HyperMouse]

I wouldnt mind a WW2 scenario or even a made up modern conflict i just hope it would be nothing set in the middle east, or terrorists again.

[CrimzonRazor]

Id like to see them bring back the 2048 setting again I like titanfall but much rather play a new version of 2048. It would be cool to have the mech stuff back without the wall running stuff and more reality based mechanics.

[Einhander1971]

Yes epic modern for me also, for me personally find the ww2 settings of no interest.

[windblowsagain]

More like BF4, not BF1.

[Neoprime]

It's going to the Cold War.

[yeahokwhatever]

Where everyone just sits in a bunker looking intently at radar screens and communications reports? Sounds fascinating!

[UltraAtomic]

😬 awesome I didn't like bf1, soo I hope we get a bf4 like shooter or bfbc3. Please make a bfbc3!!!!

[Lionalliance]

I do hope at least the campaign is better than BF4, that one sucked.

[bondsmx]

This article has zero info a bf fan doesn't already know.
Would love to see bfbc 3.
My guess, it'll be a new bf Vietnam.

[Gh05t]

They could always do the Korean War.

[InTheZoneAC]

bad company 3 or modern combat bf5, THANK GOD!!!!!!!!

[Shotcalm]

vietnam please.

[Shadowlee]

2018 is gonna be stacked

[Altovoltage]

Please be modern era I can't stand this old war games

[yeahokwhatever]

How about a time travel BF to appease everyone? You could go back in time and get a t-rex, and make it your tank, then go to WW2 and ride your new pet as it eats its way through nazi germany.

[BassMan125]

Please no more Premium crap.

[_-EDMIX-_]

Based on what they did with Titanfall 2 and Battlefront 2 it's very very likely that Battlefield 5 is going to follow suit and no longer have the premium DLC in regards to it being charged for anyway.

[BassMan125]

Yeah. I hope so too. Premium Friends really didn't help either. More like an insult to non-premium players.

[Aenea]

Nope, it hasn't been announced, it has been mentioned they are working on a new Battlefield game, they didn't say what the title was or when it would release.

That's not an announcement!

[InTheZoneAC]

Reasons why we won't get BC3 - because the devs are robots and don't understand simple things that made the game great:

https://www.gamespot.com/ar...

[nbtc971]

If they don't put 3rd party server support back in with proper rcon and plugin support It'll be the 3rd BF game in a row I've skipped.

[Silly gameAr]

I got kinda bored with BF1 pretty fast honestly. I'm ready for BF5, or better yet, a new Bad Company game.

[rebeljoe14]

Better not be set in WW1-2 bullshit, BF1 was boring as hell. Needs to do modern day and bring back the blue hue color from BF3 for multiplayer and get rid of the depressing grey from BF4

[TheOttomatic91]

I would prefer a Battlefield 1 part 2 focusing more on foreign countries in the SP.

[SolidStoner]

If Battlefield 5 will be as arcade as BF1 it will be a fail.. (Im talking about rock-paper-scissors gameplay!) guns are fake up and down bars, with fake up and down damage.. no to mention all other arcade decisions, including worst support for hardcore gamers ever in history of BF!

[WeAreLegion]

Anyone feel weird about that title? "New part of the shooter series"

Who wrote this? My mom?

[RedKnightOH]

We need to go back to a Battlefield 3 type of game. NOT Vietnam!!

[NerveGearneeded]

they are going to reskin battlefront and make a new battlefield 2142.

[Grown Folks Talk]

Can we get some co-op campaign please? EVERY shooter should have co-op IMO.

[esmittystud101]

Why are they talking about this already. They should be in full fledged Battlefront 2 promoting now.

There PR guy needs fired.

[quenomamen]

Need a stand alone BF Vietnam game for modern consoles.

[RadicalCannibal]

Am I the only one who is hearing the theme music while reading this? Bum bum buh bum bum

[Blachek]

I'd love a BF2142 style game from them.
