EA Exec on PUBG Success, Impact on Battlefield Development
"new and innovative ways to play"
| Quote: | EA CEO Andrew Wilson has spoken out about the remarkable success of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds and how it's impacted Battlefield development.
Wilson starts by talking about esports as a whole and how viewership of games can help to reach a wider audience of people who may not already play particular games.
"We always believe, at its very core, esports is going to drive tremendous engagement in our community and allow us to reach broader communities of viewers who maybe have never played our games before. And in doing so, we would see growth in the core digital businesses of the games that we'll feature in esports."
He went on to explain how this engagement relates to PUBG and the success it's seen in shaking up the FPS genre saying, "I think what you discover in this industry is there's a lot of great vectors that drive player engagement. And one of those is just innovation in the core gameplay mechanic. And what the team, with PUBG, have done is really deliver a new level of innovation that change the way people were playing first-person shooter games."
What this means for the confirmed 2018 Battlefield release or perhaps even the new Battlefield 1 Apocalypse DLC is EA are looking for "new and innovative ways to play" but Wilson assures "And that doesn't mean just kind of PUBG replicas inside of the Battlefield universe, but it does mean that our Battlefield teams...are looking at how they innovate in every aspect of the game, including core gameplay and map design." |

Oh fuck.
So the next Battlefield might be yet another Battle Royal type of game?

I don't mind EA asking other studios (like Visceral if they still existed) to experiment and try a new formula, but I still want DICE to focus on traditional BF games.

Also, even if they might add a BR mode, the main game would still focus on team-based modes (conquest/operations etc).
I don't see the bad having more ways to play a game, as long as they keep the core gameplay.
And also, people might like or not like Battlefield games, but for me, they have all been very fun and more than worth the money I've spent on them, going by the 1$/1hour rule.
way more ...
And also I think they have been way above average quality-wise, compared to any other FPS in that genre.

Pretty sure a BR mode will be in this year's BF, question is if they are going to focus on it or just tack it on the usual BF experience.
Oh and if blueasshole will whine about copyright infringement when it happens

You just need one very successfully game, and everyone is trying to get a piece of the cake.
Just like MOBAs, Card Battlers or Open-World-Surival games in EA.

Can't blame them. It's an easy money grab and they can make a good game if they want.

The destruction + vehicles found in a Battlefield could add something to the Battle Royale genre, but I'm not a fan of that genre in general. And it's already very crowded. If they want to give Battlefield assets to a smaller studio and tell them "make a BR game with it", that could be neat. I'd just prefer if DICE themselves didnt work on it. Maybe their work toward Battlefield Incursions could be moved toward creating a squad-focused Battlefield BR game.

They could make the next battlefield a top seller instantly with this:
Battlefield Bad Company 2 building destruction
Battlefield 3 terrain destruction
Battlefield 4 ground and air vehicles( the air vehicles would need to be balanced somehow)
As well as general battlefield features.

Woohoo! BF1 was awesome, happy they are going to WW2 again. I would not want another modern time BF. I hope they do Vietnam too someday!

I have a 290X I believe if we stick to 1080p gameplay we will be fine.
