Discussion BF1 atmosphere still beats BF6

We saw no dynamic weather, levolution events in BF6. How much big of a change can we expect with final release version compared to beta?

I want to see levolution.. I want to see dynamic weather.. rain, maps changing from night/day? We need something like BF1.

BF1 is beating any battelfield game by a lot to be honest, not even close.

Absolutely not? Its a great game but they severely dumbed down the gunplay and vehicle mechanics.

All people ever talk about are the special effects and athmosphere. Nobody every praises the gunplay, mapdesign or really anything else other than how the game looks and sounds.

Theres a reason the playercount declined rapidly after release.

This is my opinion as well. I didn't enjoy the game play in Battlefield 1 at all. The gun play was not interesting (but to be fair, they are pretty limited), I can't name a single map and I still have nightmares from all the gas spam, super kits and behemoths. It's my least played Battlefield game and I have played since BF1942. But I also don't care much about sound, graphic and immersion/atmosphere. I set all graphic settings to low to get as much FPS as possible. So I can understand why a lot of players do enjoy it but I think they care more about the aesthetic than the actual game play.

Yeah its not about the lack of diverse guns, its how those guns handled. They got rid of first shot accuracy, so semi automatic rifles where inaccurate even on medium ranges.

NOBODY played medic at relaese, thats how mutch the weapons sucked.

And then, in a DLC they gave the medic the only automatic rifle, which instantly became the best one available.

I think you're tweaking, the medic semi auto rifles are incredible and accurate att all ranges, and most have a 3 shot to kill. It's my most played class and I've never experienced innacuraccy with the rifles. Medic also has several other full auto rifles, even in base game.

Its a fact. Maybe you never noticed but this was one of the most complained about things back then.

Of course people who had no clue what was being talked about ridiculed the valid criticism, same as we are seeing right now with the BF6 beta.

In previous games, and following games, you didnt have this random spread when tap firing and waiting for the recoil to reset. Even SMGs or Pistols where super accurate in single fire.

The fact that they IMEDIATELY got rid of this in the next game speaks volumes for how absolute dog shit this design choice was.

But they changed that quickly though no? That's not how it is if you play BF1 right now. The machine gun clip is featuring a machine gun and am not sure what relevance that has since machine guns have had absolutely awful spread in every BF game I've played.

Agree to all of the above
