Played the beta a couple more hours and still think Battlefield is boring mixed bag of a game. I don't see how it will do a better job of keep its population than Battlefront did. Particular complaints: The long game is dominated by snipers. The only refuge for infantry are the cliffs or the town. Maybe this is a map issue, but it's the only map we have to judge the game. Cavalry have too much health. When a machine gun can't scratch cavalry, it's too powerful. Air support is about as useful in Battlefield 1 as it is in Battlefront. Flying is fun but a waste of manpower. Tanks are overpowered especially if you have 5 guys in one tank. A team can rule the map taking out infantry, planes, and other tanks. Running the map in a tank should be fun, but it turned out to be kinda' boring. The game can't shake the treadmill of walk 5 minutes, die, walk 5 minutes, die. The spawn map isn't helpful. I see blue blobs here, green blobs there, and no way to know where I should drop into the game. And you know players will wait for a horse, plane, tank.
