Battlefield 4 ups squad count to five, DICE explains why

Joystiq - "They've been asking for bigger squads," DICE producer Aleksander Grondal told Joystiq at E3, referring to the Battlefield community's insistance on larger squad counts.

It's awesome when devs implement direct feedback from it's players.

Since they are hearing, if they have some small maps for BF4 like in BF3, those map should support game mods with no squads/only one big squad. I understand it's not DICE main concern (and shouldn't be, BF is all about the huge scale of combat), but that CQ in BF3 was actually fun for fast clan sessions or to warm up, unfortunatelly having 2 small squads felt pointless, it's just 8 vs 8 afterall and we have a much better control of what everyone else in your team is doing when everyone is on the same squad.

64 player!!! Hell yeah!!

Would have prefered 6 players, but appreciate it going up to 5.

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.

-Foxtrot778d ago

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

gamesftw250777d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface776d ago

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

PapaBop777d 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.

Inverno777d 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

XiNatsuDragnel778d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps777d ago

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

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

pr33k33777d 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.

Pudge102888777d 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_D3TH777d 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.
