Tom Henderson: The next Battlefield title is scoped as a hero shooter of sorts

Oh wait what's this? Now it's going F2P and you have to put 1 dollar into a slot machine every time you want a chance of getting ammunition. Also if you pre-order now you can get a dildo charm to hang off the side of your gun.

MP games are like a constant ethereal presence in gaming for me, they exist but its outside my reality.

I dunno, maybe I'll suddenly be into them 25 years from now when I'm 60, I'll get cyber eyes/wrists installed to keep up with the young uns.

This goes against what I have heard. The next bf game is mobile. After that there is nothing for a while. Ripple Effect and the new Seattle studio are providing live service support for 2042 for at least a year. while what is left of DICE work on engine and bugs. The project that Ripple Effect is working on is still early days according to my source. I suppose it could be a hero shooter but he made it seem like it was "story focused".

Already talking about the next Battlefield game before fixing the current game? That’s bold.
They have announce that BF is now a connected universe with 2042 and its characters at its core. Rumor is 1 of the games being made is a prequel with a single player staring specialists that explains how the world got so fucked.

My source is super cagey but he did tell me a while back that EA desperately wants a "Connected Universe" with multiples games linked together. They hope to make battlefield what Tom Clancy games should have been. My source was dubious about success because he that BF management was lacking. This was before Zampella was given control.
