EA Confirms Battlefield 5 Will Not Defect From Premium Single-Player Experiences
Games have become increasingly connected and social, with always-on features being both part of a permanent player engagement (and monetization) attempt. As a result, some publishers are already looking to not so slowly eliminate big budget, single-player premium experiences from their games. One need not look much further than one of the industry's behemoths, Call of Duty, which has been confirmed, in its latest Black Ops IV iteration which will launch this year, that single player content has been wholly cut- despite a three-year development window and Black Ops being one of the best storytelling experiences to Call of Duty in recent times.
EA, perhaps picking up on the momentum of backlash against the lack of single player content in the upcoming Black Ops IV, has confirmed the upcoming Battlefield 5 will not eschew a single player component, giving players the premium campaign experience we've come to know. The next Battlefield (which is expected to be set in World War II) will likely release around October of this year, sporting the usual campaign and multiplayer modes, with a chance of a battle royale mode as well.

Not since Bad Company 2 they haven't.
ya, I thought story line movies and cut scenes = Premium Singleplay Experience . or like one I recall MOH with dusty ? the game took over my game play and finished out the map for me ? like why could I not do it or allowed to ? well in the junk box .
thing is the code writers and developers of old like a john carmack are all dead, quit , retired or moved on to better things ,and this new breed of them aint got a clue what real game play is
they do MP maps but so did we back in the good ol days here at home in the sandbox to be uploaded for use in the games community . so how hard can it be for them to just offer MP maps all day long
Actions speak louder than words. Then again personally after killing of ME they can go were the sun don't shine.
If they started remaking what they destroyed studio's closed down i might consider buying another one of their games.
Funny that they think their words mean as much as a company you can trust (CDPR).
you don't ''buy '' these games you buy there client first off well before you even get to any thing about the games that they allow you to use after you agree to that , with out them first you got nothing
maybe you got some crap steam client game down load ?
quake 3 and etqw are about game play not how good a camper you are . and AI that comes running and gunning for you if you try
I've always bought these games for single player. Only CoD1 and Medal of Honor was played on LAN and some online.
If it's gonna be like Wolfenstein and DOOM, i'd get it in an instant. But we know it won't... cause EA...
So... like BF1 I say NOTY. Yesterday's games with yesterdays' gameplay with crappy online, I'll pass cheers
- Multiplayer only (ie no story, no actual content, just players competing with each other)
- Multi-layer DRM
- Expensive lootboxes
- Over-powered expensive in-game purchased items
- Cheaters (e.g. PUBG)
No thank you. I want my good old single player (with multiplayer feature) games back.And it's not much different with Battlefield franchise when I was playing it. Battlefield 3 was actually quite fun, story connected with sequences etc. For example, Battlefield 4 felt the same as NFS Payback. Almost. You can just sense things aren't as they should have been when some huge studio like EA is doing the game.
