Since 6914 Daysalso taken from GamePur:
Electronic Arts has confirmed that Battlefield 1 PC release in North America will be a "Digital Only" - there will no disc. Amazon and GameStop have both updated their listing of Battlefield 1 PC version with a text "No Disc". Speaking to our friend at PC Gamer, an EA representative said: "Here in North America, there will be a PC box version that you can buy in stores that will have a code in the box and no disc. If you buy that same PC box version Internationally, some countries will offer a disc inside."
I do it with 'em all: PC, WiiU, PS4 and Xbox One.

Since 6725 DaysI hope for more interesting use of the destruction/levolution. Cool if the game looks nice, but start pushing what you started
Vehicles + destruction + open maps = win
Looking forward to actual gameplay at E3
Other points of interest - flamethrower, mustard gas, HORSES, gunner seats on planes, zeppelin's, bayonettes & melee variety

Since 6725 DaysGet rid of the unlock system that gives advantages to higher ranks. I want it all to be available off the bat
Since 6795 Days
Since 6725 DaysNot saying anything I say is going to happen, just think it would be nice
But people like their unlocks and music drops for when they do cool things these days
Since 6795 DaysI'm not a progression fan.. but I'm also not worried about player advantage. I could play on a fresh Battlefield 4 account and still place on the top of the scoreboard. It's not all about gear. They do an okay job at making rifle progression a "side-grade" path.
They failed a little with the vehicle unlocks, even though they come very quickly. You can "service star" a vehicle in one round, but it's not an easy task and you're best off doing it in the secondary seat of whatever vehicle you're unlocking.
And they should eliminate anything that the meta would deem "filler" in the end game.
Since 6725 DaysBut when OW does their spin on FPS after so many years, it feels pretty refreshing to lose some of that stuff.
Granted there have been other games too along the way to do this, but not as successfully.
I wouldn't mind a different kind of reward system that could come in the form of skins that show your rank. It doesn't have to be some off the wall stuff, but maybe just a uniform upgrade to show you're a General for instance?
They may have to find some alternative like this because WW1 weapons are basic.
Since 6795 DaysOverwatch and Battlefield couldn't be more different. I (still) don't think that Battlefield 1 has anything to learn from Overwatch. Except for maybe... how not to design a scoreboard.
Since 6725 DaysHowever - it'd be cool if down the road they tracked it on a website elsewhere for you on some level
BUT I was more talking contemporary, not old CS since that is the era the old BF comes from
I just think sometimes sequels and franchises get bogged down by trying to do more all the time. Scaling back is sometimes even more affective
EDITING EYE if you will
Since 6795 DaysCS:GO is contemporary. Battlefield 2 is old. Battlefield 2 had progression.
Scoreboards aren't inherently flawed and don't need to go away. They provide tangible information to the player and allow for a more complete analysis of the battlefield. Scoreboards make good players play smarter. It's hard enough to follow the flow of information in Overwatch with twelve players on the field, let along sixty four.
They could learn a thing or two from DirtyBomb's scoreboard though. That's the only game to properly isolate and correct kill and assist scoring issues. Their solution is pretty simple: kills and assists have no base value. Scoring is left entirely to damage. This is an area where everyone else needs some guidance. DirtyBomb is the only game that gets it right.
Since 6725 DaysWe're getting distracted here though! I don't want to spiral into all these other issues like scoreboards n such
At the start of some of these franchises like BF, of which I enjoy, I find I really fall for what it is at it's most infantile basic stage. It's so fun and is hopefully at the core of all these games.
But along the way with sequels they feel a need to keep stacking onto what they've already created.
I think it's cool to do this and try new things, etc.
At a certain point though I think there is a critical mass, but instead of scaling anything back it just gets messy.
I think COD is a prime example.
Battlefield isn't necessarily at THAT point yet, but it's getting there
Since 6795 DaysBattlefront seems to address the semantics a little by changing the language to "critical kill assist", but the entire issue could be averted by removing the concept of a base point value for killing. Hopefully they at least follow and improve upon the Battlefront model here. Assists that count as kills just motivate scrubby players to stay scrubby. Especially scopes.
Scoring is super important in Battlefield because it can incentivize good player behavior. And if it's poorly handled, such as "assist counts as kill", it can model poor player behavior instead.
RE: What Battlefield needs to remove. Shitty game modes like rush. Commanders maybe.
Oh and just in case you were worried: the server browser is a lock. None of that SWBF quick-play crap.
Since 6725 DaysLots of times these games cram modes onto a single map they weren't necessarily designed for. I think this is what DICE and games like Rush are guilty of sometimes
If they designed the maps around their specific modes they'd feel better
Instead they retread and reuse maps that are also created for Conquest
It's interesting though, because I bet Rush is most popular on Console, and Conquest on PC? Since both were sort of where each started getting really popular
I've only played DirtyBomb very briefly, but that model sounds really interesting
There's a lot of new ideas floating around and I'm curious to see how some of the big fps guys (Activision/DICE) decide to implement them or not
Since 6795 DaysThe lack of RPGs concerns me... but the Mauser T-Gewehr AT rifle might be fun.

Since 6795 DaysI could imagine it as a mock-up.. but even then it's just.. sloppy. And the $60 weapon attachment DLC is maybe far fetched.
There was a somewhat more believable leak from a youtube COMMENT of all places about some carrier pigeon game mode. I don't think there's much to discuss though. He just suggested a few settings and said that he played a new game mode. He said the gameplay was fun and the mode was dumb.
