Concerned that it will become more like 'other shooters'

[Jaymun]

One thing I loved about Battlefront + Battlefront 2 was doing local multiplayer bot matches, and I think a huge part of the fun came from how much crazy running around crazy fighting there was.

I'm concerned that Battlefront 3 will be more like more current shooters, where you have to do lots of taking cover and stuff and less fast paced.

Would you guys prefer it stays more hectic and fast, or go to a more tactical style like more modern shooters?

As you I did a lot of bot matches with my friend in the PS2 while playing Battlefront and I had a lot of fun, but in the time there were almost no online games for the consoles.
To be satisfactory it's mandatory that the game becomes at least a little bit like current shooters but still leaving the old Battlefront appeal.

I liked how hectic it was but I think having the opportunity too add both gameplay styles fast and tactical is the way to go.

I think if we wanted to play a shooter like Battlefield 4 then we would just play a shooter like Battlefield 4. Star Wars Battlefront is a very unique game in it's game play and has a very tailored feel to it. I hope the new developers at DICE will continue this legacy. I mean, I'm sure it will be an amazing game regardless....

I like how it varies from the traditional shooter. I get kind of tied of the hide and duck style of the more popular games. I love battlefront for how fast paced you have to play to be successful!

This is exactly right. I never really felt like I ever had to adapt to the situation very much when playing games like Call of Duty, but when playing Battlefront. I felt like part of that world that I had to help shape.

I hope there are changes made to make it more modern. But I hope they don't take it in the wrong direction.

I hope it keeps the hectic style of old school, first wave shooters. Ducking, hiding, and hoping your cap doesn't get peeled by snipers has gotten old. That hectic style was what made Unreal, Doom, Wolf, and the 3D Duke games fun back in the day.

I really hope that they keep this game unique and not try and combine a bunch of other gaming experiences that we are growing tired of. I think back to Halo 4 where people said it was a lot more like Call of Duty than Halo and it lost that uniqueness. I really don't want Battlefront to turn into something like that where people just don't see the appeal in the game anymore because it's just like every other game out there.

 

[andrew172]

Hopefully not, I mean the fact that's it's being developed by Dice could add some worry to that thought... but hopefully they will stick to what made Battlefront so great in the first place

I want it to be distinctly Battlefront, but I have a feeling that's not what we'll get. Who knows, we might be surprised.

 

[Razor]

That's jinxing it a bit, isn't it?

 

[RobDaCool]

Would really suck if it did. I hope they don't try to throw a Star Wars coat of paint onto Battlefield. Because it didn't work when they tossed a WoW coat of paint on SWTOR

Being that it's made by a different studio, I think we'll definitely be surprised no matter what. whether it will be good surprised, or bad surprised- that remains to be seen.

Totally, I'm hoping that's not what they'll do though. Many of the developers of the game working at Dice have said that they were hardcore Battlefront fans and want to stay as true to the game as possible.
