Battlefield 4 won't have co-op due to 'focus' on single and multiplayer
Battlefield 4 won't have a cooperative mode, according to a translated interview with DICE general manager Karl Magnus Troedsson.
While Battlefield 4's debut suggests you'll be accompanied by a squad throughout the campaign, the upcoming DICE shooter won't sport a cooperative mode. DICE general manager Karl Magnus Troedsson says the decision was made so that the developer can focus more on new single player and multiplayer modes.
The news comes from a machine-translated interview with IGN Benelux (via Videogamer). When contacted for confirmation regarding the translation, an EA representative told Shacknews: "Karl's comments are accurate."

Well, cross that one off of my list.

Why? I'm not saying this as a fan of the series but to point out that Co-op was not the emphasis of the series. The meager co-op modes offered on BF3 were lackluster.
In short, if you had co-op in mind with the next BF game, I'd say that it was never on your list to begin with.

It was just ok. Only real reason to do it was for the unlocks. I still need to get one last unlock.
-
-
Good point. I did do that for awhile!

If your picking up a "BF" game for SP, you're already in the wrong place.

I know people who play BF3 on the Xbox, and I try to explain how much better the graphics are on the pc with a decent computer. They just don't understand. They see the commercials on tv and are like AMG that looks amazing. My co-worker and I bought BF3 for the Xbox to play with one of them, I made it an hour due to the small conquest maps specifically(I knew the graphics were bad coming in) and I couldn't take it, I think he might have made it 3 hours.

Marry BF3 with BC2 and I'll be happy with BF4.
Large scale maps with sufficient environment destruction.
BF3 had only one real disappointing aspect in that the stage destruction was seriously toned down from BC2.-
The destruction was cool but just got dumb at a point. having all of the buildings leveled on a map after 20 minutes was cool in theory but terrible in practice. its not fun to spawn into a flattened arena only to get picked off by snipers and tanks a mile away.
-
On the other hand, if snipers are holed up in some impossible to reach building, I'd like to drop a JDAM on it like the U.S. military has been doing for the last decade. Good examples of this would be all of Gulf of Oman, the guyed mast on Caspian Border, all of Sharqi Peninsula and the distilling towers on Kharg and Firestorm.
-
Refine it of course.

Too bad there's still orange triangles above everyone head. So when a helo or plane aims in a general direction and presses 'Q', you're spotted by everyone. Even through that plane or helo would have had no idea you were even there....
I'm done with battlefield, it has become a generic run and gun shooter. Played 1000+ hours of BF2, only 300 of BF3.-
The removal of commander mode did leave me disappointed.
-
-
Come play Planetside 2. Its the most MP fun I've had since BF2.
-
But there's spotting in that game too!!!
-

-
-
try hardcore mode.
-
-
I'm ok with this. I give zero fucks about co-op in these types of games these days. Hell, I don't even need SP for BF4. I just want the best MP experience they can give me.
