May as well just call it We COD Now

This game is nowhere near balanced enough (from several perspectives) to the point where it could be a serious competitive game... I guess the player base really did get a massive hit since I last played. 😕

Longtime lurker, first time poster :P Decided to sign up on the forums to post this for anyone else - I saw this on reddit today shortly after seeing the news here about the competitive mode. Possible anti-cheat coming to BF1 (reddit link), looks like the alpha TOS for the competitive mode hint at a new in-house anti-cheat from EA/DICE. Fingers crossed that this is inbound for vanilla / "normal" BF1. The widespread hacking has pretty much killed public multiplayer in this game, here's hoping EA/DICE release this in time to breathe some life back into the game.

Well put together trailer. But yeah, the game is very COD like now I bought it only just recently, bit underwhelmed 🙁 Liked BF3 and 4 better. Maybe I'm just worn out on battlefield lol

For competitive they need to drastically minimize map size, remove vehicles and balance it for infantry. Still better than COD.
