Battlefield 1

For anyone interested in the next Battlefield game, a website has been created with a countdown timer to May 6th...so not long to wait now :)

http://www.battlefield.com/event

I've been waiting for this! Very very excited to see what happens :)

I've heard rumours of WW1 and trench warfare.

I played around 400 hours of Battlefield 3, so I guess you could say that I fairly enjoyed that. I missed Battlefield 4 in the most part, mainly due to not gaming for a period but it's still a very good game.

Is anyone going to watch the twitch stream?

It's definitely been a long wait, but I'm quite excited to see which direction they'll go in. Having put about 900 hours into BF4 (and skipped Hardline & Battlefront), I'm really hoping it'll be something special!

I may consider a small loan from the bank for this :)

Upgrade time? :D

Anyone considering enlisting as a Battlefield Insider?

It'll be interesting to see how they execute the WW1 theme/story if it turns out to be true. Reminds me of the original Medal of Honour and COD1,2,3 and BF 1942 early days.

Thought about it. But it comes with a load of other spam as well

I'm very interested to see if DICE will yet again push the graphics benchmark in multiplayer shooters.

As DICEs last game was SW:BF, that made me laugh......a lot!

I agree with his point on map design at 2.35. Some of the later DLC and community maps were better.

I was hoping for a return to the future ala 2142, but it looks like it will be WW1 based. One of the DICE former devs posted a link on twitter to the Codename Eagle Wikipedia page suggesting some "prior reading" before the reveal later tonight...

I totally agree on this point as well. Map design on BF3 was really really good, there was some solid maps but BF4.... I cant even think of any I really enjoyed off the top of my head.

The preamble before the live event is live on Youtube right now...
