Battlefield 4's "Levolution" Will Break New Ground and Start an FPS Revolution

CCC Says: "The term “next-generation” means a lot of different things to a lot of different people. Typically, the most recognized improvements between generations are the graphical abilities of any given console against its predecessor. But there is much more to the term than pretty visuals and dazzling effects. Namely, the abilities that powerful new hardware provides to developers in terms of gameplay and multiplayer architecture."

I hope the next FPS generation will copy games like Battlefield and not COD anymore.

[crxss]

basically the same idea as Red Faction but on a much larger scale

[SIRHC13]

"Oh, this one formula's getting stale, so let's copy the other one!"

Give me a break.

[SillyYou]

Huge games are getting copied anyway. There's nothing you can do about it. But i prefer a BF clone over a COD clone though.

[Shadonic]

Id rather them try to be unique and present a new way to play instead of fallowing the crowd.

Remember Halo Q.Q

[3-4-5]

COD already said they are sticking with what they know, so that means anyone and everyone has an opportunity to catch up or pass that Franchise in terms of gameplay options and creativity.

There are too many good FPS games about to release that are ALL doing something different and once you play these 4-5 games, going back to COD will feel like going back to Goldeneye 007 does now.

Still good, but completely outdated in every way imaginable.

[MuhammadJA]

I can't see an FPS revolution happen from another military FPS.

[Neixus]

Talk about being close minded.
Imagine if a game could capture all the emotions that happens in a real war? How a man can be so desperate to survive because of his family etc.
I certainly believe that a miltitary fps could someday revolutionize at some point in the future. By having a more mature and believeable story, and story telling.

[trenso1]

do you really think all of that is going to come from the multi player since that is what this article is talking about.

[Hufandpuf]

Titanfall. Blending single player and multiplayer into a single game. And having mechs vs soldiers is pretty original. It won't be better than bf4 IMO, but I'd say Respawn are bringing some cool ideas to the table too.

[Cam977]

In really looking forward to this!
Ps4 version for me.

[dcj0524]

Only if it's more than just OMG THE BUILDING FELL DOWN. I'm talking about floods,multiple buildings falling down,Forest Fire in jungle maps, Flooding so much that there are only little islands forcing you in a boat or to swim. You get what I mean.

[Phene]

That sounds kinda cool, constantly have to change your play style and work better as a team

[sAVAge_bEaST]

you can blow a dam, and cause a flood, . in Bf4.

[MizTv]

Hell yeah!

[titletownrelo]

If they remake Metro, imagine speeding passenger trains separating part of the station from the other and running over unaware soldiers. What if you could RPG the incoming trains, causing them to derail, slide, and crash in movie like fashion?

Imagine in the heat of naval combat with the new armored-boats, you could destroy oil rigs causing there to be a huge fire ON the water.

Or how about being able to knock down cranes with enough C-4, removing the pesky sniper from its nest, and causing the crane to come down with a thud. Maybe cutting off road access from enemy tanks?

how about a huge passing desert duststorm temporarily blinding anyone in its way, or a blizzard that has the same effect but also forces players to retreat indoors?

The possibilities are endless...

[ramiuk1]

personally if THE DIVISION has pvp city wide and ubi support it like they should,i think it will change the way online gaming is forever,so games like BF and cod need to give it there everything imo.

i loved old cod,bf series amazing but since watching DIVISION and the possibilities it offers my heads blown,its the only next gen game i seen i think.

[dcj0524]

I want a dynamic story. As in the players in division effect tge real world and they do a content patch to make it fit in with story or something along thise lines. That would be so could.

[Scatpants]

What I don't understand is if everyone is playing as Division agents, why is there PVP. Is there an evil group of Division agents. I hope you can choose some kind of affiliation, like gangs versus Division or something.

[USA007]

Until they show me true levolution, I won't be that impressed with b4f. I want it to come back to the days of BC2 where more than just one building could be destroyed. I want to be able to come up to ANY wall and blow a hole through it. Now that would be levolution...

[Wni0]

Reminds me of the groundbreaking stuff CoD 4 did back in the day.

[solidworm]

KZ SF and BF4 will be my next gen go to FPS. Cod unless it somehow manages to get back to COD4 levels of awesomeness can go fcuk itself.

[ufo8mycat]

From the clips I have seen so far of BF4, it really does not play any different what so ever to BF3. Pretty much just looks like bigger maps, better graphics and thats it.

All I see is visual effect changes - buildings destructible etc thats it

Gameplay still seems the same as BF3.

Guess shall wait until I get my hands on it before anything, but s far - nothing different here

[JBernardo]

Meanwhile COD: Ghosts will feature Dogs with real life like features and fish that move out of the way. I think levolution is dead! LOOK AT THAT FISH!

PS: Sorry for bringing COD up on a BF4 news article, but I had to do it! XD
