Battlefield 1 is wiping the floor with Battlefield 4

4.6
Battlefield 1‘s current playerbase is leaps and bounds ahead of where Battlefield 4 was at this point after its launch in 2013.

A recent earnings call by Electronic Arts included new information about the publisher’s upcoming games, as well as updates on its more popular titles already on the market. It was announced during the call that Battlefield 1‘s average playerbase is approximately 50 percent larger than Battlefield 4‘s at the same point.

Battlefield 1 sold many more copies than originally projected, making it the biggest Battlefield launch ever. Battlefield 1 sold significantly more than EA’s other Q4 2016 shooter, Titanfall 2, but it is considered to be a “higher margin title” than Titanfall 2, which EA claims to be one of its best games of the year.

Other EA titles like Star Wars Battlefront 2 and Mass Effect Andromeda were also discussed during the earnings call, but perhaps the biggest news out of the briefing was that the recently teased Skate 4 is not in development as so many were lead to believe.

BF1 is an awesome game! The only downside to the game is the loading times in between each game. Other than that, the game is a beast. If they fix that. BF1 would've been my favorite game to play. League of Legends currently is taking over.

BF1 is so much better than BF4. Never played BF4 as much as BF3 1942 BF2 and BF1

OGPosted:

BF4 is still a great game despite how well BF1 is doing

It's because they went back. People been hating futuristic games for so long anyone who try's to make them will fail. Good job on this one EA

A good portion of this is because BF4 came out when COD was still successful and now that COD has gone to shit they are getting more people to play BF.
