Didn't play BF4 for a while....but recently got back into it and enjoying all over again....great game.
While playing I just wonder how BF1 will measure up to the scale and customizing of the previous BF's. This time its not a matter of saying, this is Hardline, its not meant to be measured against a BF game....
I think its fair to compare BF4 and Bf1, the other games are different in tone.
Some things I am looking to forward to with BF1
Is BF1 you've got a lot of history to base it off, unlike BF4's fictional China/US war so you should have a fuller more fleshed out feeling to the battles.
Airplanes in BF1 will be slower and maybe easier for ground units to take on. (hopefully)
You wont have any fire-and-forget weapons. No lock on laws and stingers.
there seems to be dynamite (so C4 in the game, but you may have a limited range for them, since they would use cables to detonate)
tanks are supposed to handle differently, there's talk it will be more crew based requiring multiple players to fully control. I would like to see tanks being made harder to drive/control so there more reward for a tank to have a full crew.
I dunno about the horses though, do you think they would be as good as a bike and c4 against unsuspecting tanks?
I also wonder how they going to handle the parachute dynamic that's in BF4, in BF1?
