EA, Please Don't Kill Off Battlefield 4

Battlefield 4 was among EA's most successful launches despite having a ton of issues at its launch. However, with the launch of Battlefield 1, Battlefield 4 seems to be dying.

lOl, only if they make BFBC3 worthy, the funny thing is when BFBC2 came out everyone was saying that BC wasn't a "REAL" BF game now it's one of the most iconic/favs lOl.... BC was my most loved games of the series and my introduction to BF. Before that I was SOCOM all day every day haha.

The guy who leaked BF1 MONTHS before it was revealed said his source claimed DICE LA were working on BFBC 3 while the Sweden studio was doing BF1

I personally prefer Battlefield 4 over Battlefield 1. I have 180 hrs in BF4, yet only about 50 hrs in BF1. Battlefield 1 after the 50 hr mark, hasn't been drawing me in.

spaceg0st2572d ago

1000 hours into bf4 and still a great game. .. except for the stupid FLIRs

Sciurus_vulgaris2572d ago

I just think BF4 is arguably more balanced than BF1. The guns in BF1 are easier to use, and thus you can kill (or get killed) at long ranges more readily. I hated getting gunned down by hip fired SMGs in BF1. Some maps in BF1, also seemed to just favor camping snipers . Also planes with good pilots are annoying as hell to deal with in BF1. A friend of mine went 43-0 in plane during a conquest match.

Sciurus_vulgaris--- that's nothing 43-0 https://battlelog.battlefie... ......... second d account https://battlelog.battlefie...

yeahokwhatever2572d ago

he got lucky. Im a badass pilot and I usually dont last THAT long. Damn flak cannons are a problem.

CPTN MITCHELL2572d ago

I have 160 hrs on bf1 and 489 on bf4 and I'm going back to bf4 because dice killed bf1 specially frontline game mode

SillyBastid2572d ago

i actually think frontline saved this game! Conquest just isnt doing it - sniping is way too easy in BF1.

badz1492572d ago

What the hell ia this article talking about BF4 dying? The PS4 version alone still has over 20k players peak per day still. And even on the PS3 there are over 10k peak in 24h. Dying? I don't think so

Mroc132572d ago

True story. I have gone back to BF4. The gameplay is better imo and I like getting those battlepacks with attachments and boosts etc. There's no reward in BF1. It feels like it wasn't completed.

I was wondering if you could say launch a few more times.

GreenUp2572d ago

BF4 is still strong. BF1 gameplay isn't as fun imo. BFBC is the better of the series excluding the royal king BF2.

TheOttomatic912572d ago (Edited 2572d ago )

I disagree the release of BF4 was insulting it was almost as bad as the launch of Andromeda, EA and DICE lost a lot of fans and most likely financial support in the long run (due to gamers unsure about the quality about a more games in the series following 4). Whilst BF1 was not as commercially successful as 4 it did bring back a lot of trust in DICE to make quality titles like previous games they've done, my conclusion kill 4 with fire and work on more games that are high quality like BF1 and hopefully the upcoming Battlefront 2.

TheOttomatic912572d ago

Did it? If so that's great news I had heard that BF1 sold under expectations for EA though that doesn't necessarily mean the sales were poor

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.

-Foxtrot781d ago

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

gamesftw250780d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface779d ago

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

PapaBop780d 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.

Inverno780d 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

XiNatsuDragnel781d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps780d ago

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

Pudge102888780d ago (Edited 780d 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

pr33k33780d 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.

Pudge102888780d 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_D3TH780d 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.
