Poll Should "BATTLEFIELD" go back to World War 2? (70 votes)

World War 2 57%
Vietnam War 9%
Modern War 9%
Futuristic war 26%

Where should next Battlefield game take place?

World War 2

Vietnam war

Modern War

Futuristic war

I really want Battlefield 2142 remake. It has TITAN MODE, one of the best game mode ever made.

Also 2142 is no where near like NEW FUTURE CALL OF DUTY OR TITANFALL.

Battlefield 2142 was in far future and it had in fact interesting plot.

Having placed their previous online shooters in WWI, WWII, the Vietnam War, and modern day settings, Battlefield 2142 took place in a future where a new Ice age has thrown the world into a panic.

The soil not covered by ice can only feed a fraction of the Earth’s population, and players choose to fight for one of two military super powers in an epic battle for survival: The European Union or the newly formed Pan Asian Coalition. Introducing a futuristic art style, science fiction weaponry, and the asymmetric game mode Titan, Battlefield 2142 still has a hardcore following that doesn’t want to leave the future behind.

I am also ready for World War 2 and Vietnam. Please no more "modern" settings. Almost every new FPS takes place in modern world. We are tired. If it takes place in modern day, then it will be another Battlefield 4 game or Modern Warfare 2/3 game.

They should halt the series for a year or two and come back with something entirely different. Hardline is a cool concept but even that looks like the same old Battlefield. Most stale and boring "blockbuster" series there is these days.

My vote is easily Vietnam. Too may WWII games and not nearly enough decent ones from Nam. If not Vietnam, then modern... however, it needs to be a different setting. Preferably jungle, forest, etc.

I want a Battlefield with bow and arrows and swords. Vehicle are dinosaurs: raptors; t-rexs; and pterodactyls.

I just want more dinosaurs in video games...

That would be awesome, but they would have to allow for a ton of bots to make it feel right.

They should make a Lord of the Rings battlefield. It would be great: endless dlc material from lore, subsequent subscriptions, endless amounts of goty editions, premium editions, hair dlc, oliphaunt dlc, pay 2 legolas, free 2 gimli.

I'm sorry, I was listening to Howard Shore.

They are already making Battlefront 3 so they got the umm future covered. I'd prefer they go back to a Cold War era. WWII is too old, Vietnam's all jungle all the time gets boring fast and I am tired of the Modern shooter.

Yes, Battlefield should return to WW2. Set it the Pacific theater, damn it! Then do North Africa, and some Europe. We need to see what WW2 games are like played on modern gaming tech.

And also, do some Korea, Vietnam, and American Civil War.

They need totally new gameplay, change engine and build game from start. Bad Company, Bad Company 2, Battlefield 3, Battlefield 4... all modern... they just reskin weapons, sound and maps but everything else is same.

I miss old Battlefield games. I want new

If you want a real World War 2 sim, play Red Orchestra 2: Rising Storm. Battlefield scale but with way more realism. (No name indicators so you have to identify enemies by uniform, no bullet counters, 1 hit kills, ect)

No one asked about a sim and most people prefer their games to be a little more arcadey.

Battlefield should not go to WW2, Batllefield should just GO...as in leave, right along with CoD. Every damn bro-gamer has bought 10 copies of the same game year after year. Do these suckers not get bored of the same crap?

It's time to take a long vacation Battlefield...it's time.

Why would it go back to WW2? What else do people want from that setting? Having to historically set your game already limits the amount of creativity and environments you can create.

WW2 does not set historically limits. You saying that Wolfenstein is also historically? Nope. You can make any game in WW2 and having your own story, maps and war. Alternative war for example.

Personally I would love to see a World War 2 game with Dice's frostbite 3 engine with its lighting and beauty. Plus consoles are seriously lacking in this genre that frankly should be brought back.

They need to make a medieval Battlefield game, that I would be down for.

Horses, wagons, swords, bows and arrows, cross-bows, catapults etc.

I really want Battlefield to go back to 2142. I spent countless hours in titan mode on that game.

Call of Duty however should go back to world war 2.

Apparently all it takes is a generation and some change for people to beg for the return of one of the most ridiculously over-saturated genre settings.

They (Acti and EA) should stop releasing both COD and Battlefield and work on something completely new.

TBh I'm about ready to go back to WW2. I've had enough of modern shooters and Planetside 2 is scratching that huge epic sci-fi battles itch for the forseeable future (LOL BATTLEFRONT 32 PLAYERS, huh?!).

FPS in general needs a new WW2 iteration from the triple A studios.
