aint heard that name since Reach(which he directed and was a killer campaign). Glad EA finally doing an overhaul for battlefield and bringing in the big guns. franchise desperately needed a shake up.

All they had to do was more of the same and refine it. Instead they went chasing trends. EA for at least the last 8 years has been a perfect example of franchise mismanagement. The last good Battlefield was BF1, don't @ me :hubie:

5 was good after updates, but going back to back old wars wasn't a good idea IMO.

Battlefield doesn't need a campaign mode.

This is EA being retarded and trying to please people who don't even play shooters or BF.
well, a good campaign is how you can grow a franchise. People seem to forget that many people that buy COD annually are people that play mainly the campaign, and the same goes for other shooters.

Most people are still buying COD games for the multiplayer, not campaign.

And this isn't a good comparison anyways. There's been several good to great campaigns in COD games over the years. BF campaigns have almost always been generic trash and completely forgettable. Campaign modes really only matter in story based games like Halo or niche experiences like DOOM. BF was never known for any of this stuff, and its brand was built on being a sandbox shooter, which its been failing to deliver.

BF is already a massive brand with tons of cultural cache, They dont need to grow it any further. What they should be focused on is not losing what got them here after several failed BF games.

I guess it’s good they are using the battlefield name for marketing purposes. But they gone have to make a really good game regardless.

The last really good military shooter campaign was GRAW2 like 15 years ago.

We will see how this one goes :manny:

A Battlefield Bad Company 2 remake dine right would bring back alot of old players and bring new ones in.
There is a reason Battlefield Bad Company series is regarded as the best in the series and the campaign is remembered right along with multiplayer.
Having online as your focus isnt something EA can do they fukk it up more times than not. Their version of battle royal buth iterations are trash. Battle Royal as an whole is overrated. The Esports stuff is fading too. EA needs to create moments in their game again. An mass of aircraft and amphibious vehicle coming to shore on noshir canal, air battles over wake island, supressing enemies in the tunnels of metro or leveling buildings with well placed explosives. Those moments dont leave and if you go to Portal now you see more people want that experience of moments over the generic live pass/battleroyal format. All those maps also have an connection to the og single player stories as well.
