Visceral explains why Battlefield Hardline is so similar to BF4

Battlefield Hardline is a mix of cops and robbers with the large-scale combat of Battlefield 4.'ve Been playing the Beta and is very similar to the BF4 unless you see someone with police uniform and firing an RPG, this is weird. A few days before E3, I talked to Vice President and Manager of Game of Visceral Games Steve Papoutsis, asked him to explain why, for example, the police and criminals have guns for military use.


Besides inspiring Hollywood , according Papoutsis similarity with Battlefield is due to the fact of being a Battlefield.


Of course there are similarities, but as the game comes to a different theme, does not mean that there will be significant changes? "We want certain things to be familiar and comfortable for the players." Papoutsis said. "If you think that Battlefield is a sport, for example football or baseball, you do not want to make drastic changes from year to year because it will confuse people and players. We have to evaluate very carefully what we can change and what we to leave there.


I do not see Battlefield as a sport, but Papoutsis is not talking about championships. Hardline seems a Battlefield 4 because it is the same "model", and this model remains even not making sense. I commented on everyone having a parachute, it is not strange?


"It's fun." Papoutsis said. "Jumping off a skyscraper and can open the parachute before hitting the ground is fun. We have great accessories like" zipline "and" grappling hook "that encourage verticality.
