The developers share what updates are planned for the future and which features will soon be activated in Battlefield 1 .
The World War shooter Battlefield 1 will receive some cool new features in upcoming updates. For example, the Hardcore mode, which many fans are looking forward to, will soon be integrated into the game. The developers have now provided more information on what “Battlefield 1” players can expect in the near future. Here is a summary of the next changes in Battlefield 1.
Hardcore servers and Fog of War in Battlefield 1
As we have already assumed, there will soon be 2 new game modes in Battlefield 1. One of them is the known Hardcore mode, where Friendly Fire is activated among other things and players have fewer hit points. This game mode is already known from other parts of the series. According to the developers, the Hardcore servers will be “coming online soon.” However, they have not yet announced a specific release for the Hardcore mode in Battlefield 1 .
Fog of War is a new game mode that will also be unlocked in Battlefield 1 soon. It is a unique multiplayer experience in the team deathmatch mode. There are extremely poor visibility conditions in the “Fog of War” game mode. Additionally, there is no minimap or name tags to help you navigate. More information on the two game modes can be found here. Fog of War will celebrate its debut at Battlefest, which is starting soon.
A week of Battlefest in Battlefield 1
Later this month, a week-long celebration will begin in Battlefield 1. The Battlefest starts for you on November 16. During this week, there will be registration rewards, an official livestream, a unique version of the Battlepacks, missions with the community, and many other activities. More information about the Battlefest will be available soon.
Optimizations to the Suez map in Battlefield 1
The developers have listened to community feedback and will make changes to the Suez map. The layout will be revised to ensure more balanced fights and optimize the map size. The map will then have 5 flags instead of 3. Furthermore, the control points within the villages (currently Flag A and Flag C) will be reduced in size to promote dynamic duels. Additionally, there will be a tank vehicle for both bases that allows the disadvantaged team to quickly cross the map. This way, they can quickly capture a control point that is behind the enemy lines.
Giant’s Shadow Map and server rental option in Battlefield 1
In December, the first new map will be available for players of Battlefield 1. In a free update, the map Giant’s Shadow will be added to the game. The developers plan to provide more information about this map soon. Even before this map is added to the game, there will be a comprehensive update for Battlefield 1 in November. In addition to numerous improvements and innovations, this update will introduce the “rent a server” program. Optimizations for player search and server balance will also be part of this update.
Of course, further changes are planned to improve the game. What do you think would be an important change in Battlefield 1?
