It's essentially saying, if you aren't an Insider yet, you should probably become one because there may very well be some news coming maybe soon about a certain Battlefield 1 beta. Actually, I think I said more in that sentence than their Tweet did. Oh well.... -

DICE Announces New Battlefield UI - Ditching Battlelog Starting with Battlefield 4
DICE announced that they will effectively scrap Battlelog for joining and browsing servers. In its place will be an in-game UI where players can join servers, much like it was for all previous Battlefield games up through Battlefield 3. This change will begin with Battlefield 4 and will make its way to Battlefield Hardline, and also be included in Battlefield 1.
The new UI in Battlefield 4 will reportedly include the following features.

Confirmed Factions for Battlefield 1
Yesterday, DICE revealed the playable factions that will ship with Battlefield 1 later this year. These factions include: British, German, Austro-Hungarian, Italian, Ottoman, and American. Oddly, the French and Russians were not included. It's actually quite baffling that the French won't be included given their significant role in WWI, but DICE has an answer for that: DLC. Yes, the French will be added later on according to French publication, ... -

44 Minutes of Uncut Battlefield 1 Gameplay from LevelCap

Everything is obviously from his perspective, but it should still be enough to give you a good idea of what the game is like in this pre-alpha stage. This includes a look at menus, spawning, weapons, lo... -

by Shawn ZipayMake up your own definition of "complete."
Was 2025 a big year for game completions for you, or were you more of a "stick to one never-ending, live-service game for the entire year" sort of player?
For this, you can take whatever definition you want as a game "completion." Beat the main story? Earned 100% of the game's achievements?
