Currently, not much official information has been shared about Battlefield 6 apart from its release window, with rumors making up much of the discussion regarding the sequel. The latest Battlefield 6 theory sees fans believing that the game may also see one popular feature return when it does come, and it should be familiar to those who played Battlefield 3 , Battlefield 4 , or Battlefield Hardli
EA Chief Studios Officer Laura Miele wrote in a blog post today (via ComicBook.com ), detailing the fact that Criterion would be delaying its new Need for Speed title in order to help give Battlefield 6 the support it needs. Miele also noted that the game will be getting an alpha, seemingly very soon. “The project is tracking towards the franchise’s earliest Alpha, the gameplay is at an unprecedented scale, and we are taking full advantage of the technology in the next-gen consoles,” Miele said. “The team has done an incredible job despite the challenges of working from home. We want to build on our position of strength, focus on the opportunity in front of us, and set our game makers up for success to deliver the best experience possible to our players this fa
The exec went on to note that a rough cut of the Battlefield 6 trailer has already been finished and seen internally. At this content rate, it's entirely possible the game could be revealed as soon as April. “We have an exceptional year ahead with our next Battlefield, so we thank everyone for coming together with the energy and determination to do something special,” Miele went on to say. “We’ve recently seen the first version of the reveal trailer for Battlefield and it’s shaping up to be a truly amazing first look at this groundbreaking game. I think fans are going to love
However, with rumors suggesting the Battlelog could be returning in Battlefield 6 , DICE may have realized how useful the feature was — and how integral it was for the game experience. Aside from players using the website for team ups, clan building, and discussion of the game, being able to track progress via Battlelog was an excellent tool for dedicated fans. Players could see leaderboards for several categories, how they were performing with each weapon/class, and much more. With Call of Duty: Warzone fans seeking unofficial third party stat trackers , there is clearly interest in a Battlelog-like system. DICE has the perfect chance to bring it back for Battlefie
While Rush exists in other Battlefield entries, it hasn't really been close to the level of quality that was seen in Battlefield 3 ’s version of the mode. While Conquest is what made Battlefield what it is, maps were seemingly made with Conquest and similar modes in mind, instead of Battlefield 3 's even split between Rush and Conquest-focused locations. While Battlefield 6 having massive maps and high player counts is an exciting rumor, these locations need to be fun to play on for more than just Conquest players. The classic Rush style needs to return, and Battlefield 3 ’s maps are a clear example of
Time can only provide that perspective to Need for Speed . Gameplay-wise, the series has been all over the place, with each release between Need for Speed: The Run and Need for Speed Heat making significant changes to handling, sense of speed, and other pivotal gameplay aspects. Mechanics in the last four or five Need for Speed games have basically been a testing ground for different gameplay styles, rather than a consistently improved driving model. Paired with narratives wildly differentiating from uninteresting to excruciatingly irrelevant, Need for Speed as a franchise has been anything but consistent in design, as well as critical/commercial recept
It is easy to see why Battlefield 6 fans are excited about the news, as the franchise has prided itself on providing large scale battles since its original debut. More players means more destruction, vehicles, and action in every multiplayer match, and it is hard not to think about the excitement that could come from having so much going on during every game. However, while it is easy to be hyped about the potential that comes from a higher player count, past Battlefield games have proven that bigger is not always bet
Another rumor building off the idea that Battlefield 6 will have several features from Battlefield 3 would see the Battlelog returning . With the account randomly becoming active again after being dormant for half a decade, players believe that the popular forum and stat-tracking website will be making a comeback. Allowing players to look at stats on each map, detailed breakdowns on each weapon, and track progress toward their next unlocks, Battlelog was a useful tool that many made use of in Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4 . Battlelog's return is not confirmed, though having access to clan tools, leaderboards, and detailed stat-tracking would be exciting for Battlefield
The tweet itself is nothing spectacular, as it details a random fix for Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4 expansions. However, the news has already started to get fans theorizing about Battlefield 6 and the inclusion of Battlelog, as many would surely like to see the website return. Having a social media-like app for a video game was a novel idea, and the stat-tracking features that came with the Battlelog made it easier for players to keep an eye on whether they or their friends were improv
