i really wish they would focus on secure multiplayer for PC with increasing depth, as an example in 5 i think there was the royale mode where the tanks needed fuel, so keep developing things like that. building fortifications, unlocks and progression, cosmetics. a cheat free environment is crucial.
2042 has been fun for me, but i just dont understand the choice of near future over 2142's great setting. 2142 had much better gadgets, like magnetic mines that chased vehicles, mini rocket launcher gun attachments, etc, mech vehicles on the map similar to ed-209. would be so very happy with a 2142 and Vietnam remaster. also always bringing back the best maps such as sharqi and karkland. tbh random map gen for battlefield would be amazing.
ive been playing since 2004 with Vietnam. 2142 was slammed as bad at release but was a great game. Bad Company should be a separate series in the battlefield universe with its own team and focused on single player content if it was up to me. i dont think the commander was ever the same after that title. when bc came out it threatened battlefield as a PC game and turning it into a console game is how i recall it. but lots of people love that one so why not make it the premier single player milsim experience.
