BF 1 will be 64 vs 64 players, so it shouldn't be that small.
That Frostbite engine is a beast, running 128 players with those graphics and real time destruction of land and buildings. Apologies. I have nothing but respect for the Battlefield series and its Frostbite engine. By small, I meant it won't be modeling the entire western front on a single map. It will be a self contained map.

Sure - I enjoy BF series greatly. 128 players will be great - even more random ways to die. Delta Force had huge maps and 128 players many years ago (10-15 years ago!?) - but without the building destruction etc. I remember you could all pile into a heli, and wander around in it whilst it was flying all managed very well by the engine and MP system even back then! If the maps are bigger great but it will I bet be a few sq miles you are playing in. Not a few 1000 with you free to roam. It is what it is looks great for the relatively small area. Fly outside the city map areas in BF4 and you'll see it is vastly reduced detail. When we get a few $ million dollars too we'll do some very cool stuff

Delighted to see it is going to so accurately replicate the Great War
Dogfighting is what you do "after" you drop your bombs and blow something up! Can you say "JABO!"

How the times have changed. Up until about BF 3/4 or i would have thrown my money at dice all ready. Not any more.
The terrible drivel that dice consider compelling single player content (that no-one asked for or wanted in a battlefield game) and the recent clusterf**ks of Hardline and battlefront have totally destroyed my faith in them as a company.
Funny thing is the battlefront IP actually demanded a good single player story driven campaign set in the starwars universe, and that was MP only...
I will wait until the gold edition and maybe grab it on a sale, until then NO dice.
