My first thought was “grittier GTA set in the future”......now I dont’ know if that’s what this game is, but by heck that gives me wood.

Well most of that trailer was using daytime shots - hopefully night time will be even more impressive? A few nighttime shots looked good.

Just replying to let you know there are other fans. Didn’t read much about him and but loved just experiencing the world with him in his numerous tv shows. There a people luckier than you to be living an adveturous life, and they are doing so exactly like you would want to if you could - and they make really good…

I can’t even remember what they were like in that tournament, but what no one seems to talk about - which I think is a huge asterix under Ronaldo and Portugal’s win - is how it was the first tournament for generations that changed the traditional format.

Came looking for the “why not both?” comments and the like - you didn’t disappoint. Thanks :D

Well that’s a pity, becasue I’m sure DICE and EA will really suffer because of your tantrum. And we’ll all really miss you online. We’ll be like, “You know what this game needs? Less female avatars and more Jaredy!”, and we’ll all storm off to our rooms and pout too.

The debate that this article started was whether people have the right to make women gamers feel like their sex’s inclusion wrecks the expectations and entitlement of a bunch of males who want to frame the debate toward their own misplaced expectations of what they’d hoped the game would be.

Yes, acclaimed was the wrong word, but many people i know and know of, including long time YouTube gamers I follow look back fondly on 2142 as a milestone of the BF formula. To me it shows the core DNA of BF games is independent of historical authenticity.

But your examples of “always realistic settings” include things that weren’t realistic or necessarily historically accurate. They were works of fiction. The numerous weapons in BF1 that weren’t used in that war. Both Bad Company’s and BF3 and BF4 were completely fictional, no?. And yeah, one of the series’ most…

I hope these relatively wealthy players who took a knee last season are now willing to put their money where their mouths are. Like seriously, I feel like anything up to now will be meaningless if they back down to this.

And that’s the difference really between gamers who care about the woman and those that don’t. Personally my fantasy is erased as soon as the guy I’m trying to kill by getting a good few shots on first, hides behind a wall, waits to regenerate, then flanks a bit and kills me. And when the tank I’m trying to kill seems…

As an atheist I have a problem with re-spawns. There is no life after death - fact. DICE promised me they’d make a metaphysically realistic game! No really, they did - I heard everybody say DICE makes realistic shooters so it must be true.

You knew full well terms like “arcadey” and “realistic” and the like are being used relatively in the context of discussing video games. Can’t tell if you’re being purposely obtuse or just missing stuff in your rush to reply to multiple comments.

I explained how I thought their expectations were unrealistic. What makes them unrealistic is that they’re not grounded on the reality of how DICE has ecolved the game. I didn’t mention my expectations, but since you asked, my expectations were quite boring and they were met - I expected some sort of shooter.

Also, I was talking specifically about the type of people I know who have voiced their displeasure because of how they see “their” game- the Battlefield franchise. These are the people who I’ve heard talk about games like Fortnight in dismissive tones because of its cartoony nature and of Black Ops as too…

Those are reasonable points, but that’s not been my experience just today. I am a member of a small battlefield community on Facebook -we all play on one server. The 4 guys who were complaining about the woman character (and the many more who hearted and liked their posts) immediately after the first post about the…

Manufactured? In my small corner of the Battlefield community on a local Facebook page for the server I play on, the first post about the BFV reveal had at least 4 different men/boys complaining about the woman in the trailer and their language included words like “sjw’s”, “cucks” and “white knights”. We have a…

Being influenced by interesting historical observations doesn’t mean they have EVER created a super realistic game or have ever claimed to. Battlefield games aren’t re-enactments - they’re games. Just saying, “oh look at this great gun we learnt about, here now you can shoot it virtually”, isn’t the same thing as “We…
