Next Battlefield called Hardline / Gameplay video!

could be good but after the extremely expensive and malfunctioning BF4 - i'm hardly enthusiastic.

Lol.....FMJ.Good movie.

Could be good. I'm interested.

It's official. The new BF is called Hardline, and is made by Visceral.

"The game launches this fall and it’s a brand new series in the Battlefield franchise, set against the backdrop of a genre we all love – the war on crime and the battle between cops and criminals."

Link.

Not sure if want.

Also aren't DICE busy with that new Battlefront game?

Read my update. Not DICE. Visceral Games.

No, it's to say something about the duality of man.

*sigh*

Accidental release or not, here's the first 7 minute gameplay video

Edit: video removed by EA.

Looks awesome, hyped!

the gameplay trailer was deleted

that looks pretty damn good, one of the desert maps on there looks very much like arica harbour

Anyway, for those who didn't see it before it was removed, the gameplay looked pretty good. Looks like the game will be leaning heavily towards singleplayer which I find pretty exciting.

Here's the video again

So is this going to be a Payday-like game? Or just a smaller, straight up shooter?

Looks cool, It's nice to break away from the military side of things.

Hmm very interesting, will have to keep my eyes on this one. It could be something unique is just very generic

They'll implement some kind of a TV show concept in the singleplayer campaign.

Do you think it could fill in the void left by the absence of SWAT series? However, this seems a lot less grounded in realism, and more focused on simply delivering "fun".

wow they have actually managed to produce a game with even worse graphics than bf4. hell, over half the assets are ripped straight from bf4.

Sold.

@Salt_The_Fries: Doubt it. This looks way more action oriented.

I am a little interested... That being said I am visually not impressed.

I think this looks great and Visceral guys are pretty good at story telling .

every frostbite 3 game on pc has horrible technical issues that are unfixable. in bf4 the game is flat out broken, and the pc version of NFS suffers from horribly uneven frametimes. it was patched on the consoles, but not on the pc.

the destructible environments caught my attention

thanks for posting the video, I feel better about this game now

What I meant was the reason why Visceral is making next BF is because DICE are busy with Battlefront :P

I was a bit vague.

I'm impressed. Length trailer and game types sold me. Looks like a fall of Halo collection, Titanfall DLC, CoD, and BF: Hardline. Good times ahead.

Why does this even have the Battlefield name?

the concept is good (at this point give me ANYTHING over modern military theme) but what's up with these graphics? Please tell me this was running on Xbone in its glorious 792p.

Needs to sell.

Just watched the gameplay video. Not going to lie, it looks pretty good. Bunch of new game modes and the setting is working better than I imagined.

They really aren't kidding around either. New AI system and really awesome looking single player. Hell this is a straight up risk for EA to bet on such a departure from the military shooter.

This looks like a straight up competitive shooter, with a separate campaign. Maybe some unique modes as it relates to "cops and robbers". Doesn't sound like Payday which was all co-op, and little or no competitive.

This doesn't look TERRIBLE, but you can still see the heavy influence of Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4. The last time the "Battlefield Engine" was given to another team to make a multiplayer shooter, it ended in mediocrity (Medal of Honor) - and the studio Danger Close only survived to make 2 games.

With Medal of Honor brand name destroyed, it seems like EA now has their sites set on Battlefield. (not in the sense that this game looks terrible, but they are still trying the "annual franchise" crap... except now they aren't even pretending to have 2 different shooter franchises... they are just going straight to annual releases of Battlefield). This only ends with one outcome...

Because franchise milkage.

No mention of conquest, so its a no buy for now. The fact that its called Battlefield just really pisses me off too. Dice makes Battlefield, and Battlefield has Conquest.

DICE is done making Battlefield games for the forseeable future. They are working on Star Wars Battlefront and Mirror's Edge 2 as well as continuing to develop and support the Frosbite 3.

Not sure if want. Looks pretty meh, I'll probably pass.

@Wasdie:

Okay? Whats your point? We dont need a BF game this year.

Same here. To each his own but I found the trailer to be rather mediocre. If anything this may just be a gamefly rental if that unless they show something that looks much better.

Still same clunky shooting from other battlefield. Why no co op? Only story seem interest, MP look meh.

Looks interesting. I don't think we have many, or enough, games that really deal with this setting in the multiplayer space.

It's funny because this is completely reminiscent of a failed Kickstarter project a couple of years ago from a bunch of CoD, BF, and Ubisoft guys. I'll try to find it.

You know, for a while there I thought there might actually be a chance that we'd get a Swat 4 style tactical shooter. I should have known better. The multiplayer looks alright, but the single player looks atrocious. The minute you start throwing around cop drama as a highlight...

still think it's gonna need conquest or some nice big open map big team mode if it wants the fans to embrace it. otherwise, hell yeah, im down for the new gametypes and the setting. glad they found something that hasnt been done to death.

This game isn't exactly Battlefield. It's a SWAT-ish game with much smaller maps and different game modes. Hardline looks like a completely different game with "Battlefield" sticked to its title.

I'm sorry I love battlefield but this shit just screams $20 budget title to me.

Yeah, the fact that its called Battlefield just annoys me even more.

Wow this looks pretty interesting to me. I may actually pick this game up!
