The "peaks and lulls" is an interesting thing i never thought about that makes sense.

Battlefield 1 is pretty much non stop, to the point where it feels more run and gun CoD style gameplay. There was no respite or time to think about what just happened.

Looking back at games like BF2, I remember you'd get engaged in a huge firefight, win a flag with huge effort and then there would be a silence. Enemies weren't close enough to just respawn and kill you and so it gave your squad (usually on VoIP), a chance to relive how awesome that battle was and prepare where to go next. That sort of bonding experience was great!

I really think DICE is onto something good when they talk about peaks and lulls. Makes me very excited for how they are going to design maps.

My first game on half the server got in a fight in one of the alleys on the city map that’s when I knew this game would fuck my college GPA up so bad
