, Head of Respawn & Group GM for EA Studios Organization, Vince Zampella, shared a plethora of details about the multiplayer shooter, including its ret🎶urn to a modern setting, ditching of specialists and mo𒐪re. It's an exciting bit of news, and there was even some concept art, too.

Battlefield Is Going Back To Basics

First and foremost, Battlefield will be going back to the modern era, a la Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4. Previously, the series went back in time with 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Battlefield 1 and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Battlefield 5 before going into the future with the maligned 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Battlefield 2042.

It seems like that decision wasn't made lightly, as EA tries to recapture the franchise's earlier magic. "I mean, if you look back to the peak or the pinnacle of Battlefield, it's that Battlefield 3... Battlefield 4 era where everything was modern," Zamepella said. "And I think we have to get back to the core of what Battlefield is and do🐻 that amazingly well, and then we'll see where it goes from there."

It's not just the modern setting that the next Battlefield will be returning to, but class-based multiplayer as well. In other words, specialists are out, which should make fans pretty happy. "You have to applaud that effort," Zampella💛 explained. "Not everybody liked it, but you got to try things. It didn't work. It didn't fit. Specialist🍎 will not be coming back. So classes are kind of at the core of Battlefield, and we're going back to that."

It's unclear when the next Battlefield will launch, but it likely won't be anytime soon, . That period ends in the spring, so preorders could theoretically happen a♒fter that. In the interim, though, Zampella says EA is "play testing the game every week."

As a final note, a community-type program will launch next year, per Zampella. Whether that's a beta or something greater remains to be seen, but it's all part of EA's efforts to rebuild trust within the community. "🏅We have a program that we're going to announce next year around getting more community in, because that's kind of the core of what we have to do — get the community back on our side, get that trust back," he added.

It certainly sounds like EA is doing its darnedest to rectify their past mistakes when it comes൩ to Battlefield. Whether that pays off remains to be seen, but the company is cer💫tainly saying the right things for now.
