It seems Battlefield: Hardline won't be continuing its cops-and-robbers spree any further than next year, with EA CFO Blake Jorgensen announcing during the 2014 UBS Global Technology Conference that 2016 will see Battlefield return to the military roots of its long-running series (via
GameSpot).
This upcoming Battlefield release, which was announced last month, is shaping up to be a "fun, new Battlefield," said Jorgensen. "That will be a return to a Battlefield military-style game; more to come on that."
Battlefield: Hardline is EA's next core Battlefield title, and is scheduled for a March 2015 launch. There will not be a new Battlefield release for holiday 2015, however, with EA CEO Andrew Wilson previously stating "We want to give Battlefield 4 and Battlefield Hardline players more time to enjoy these games and immerse themselves in a game, the live service, and the community."
As was previously announced, the next major Battlefield game - the one after Battlefield Hardline - is slated for a release during the third quarter of EA's 2017 fiscal year. In calendar terms, that means Battlefield 5 (or whatever it may be called) will arrive sometime between October and December 2016, enough time for players to enjoy BF4 and Hardline.

Mix in some wasteland (ArmA mod) and BF would just about be truly awesome.
Perhaps allow regular soldiers to drop sand-bags or dig small trenches, with the commander being able to place down bunkers and air drop in crates of building materials that the average soldier use to complete the buildings.
Honestly, being able to build a bunker on the front lines while taking suppressing fire would be intense.

Hahaha talk about tongue in cheek try wandering off the map or attempting to play the game your way ooops back to the start you go don't you know this is a "military game " and you will walk a straight line mister.
I stopped at black ops at least that had rolling stones music in it.

That was not a full game. Only had 3 maps and limited vehicles. Hardly a remake. I never got to play BF1942 when it came because I had a s*** PC. So I would enjoy playing a new version of it. Get some awesome bolt action shooting going.

The closest thing is that multiplayer addon for Warband.

Sure it will, thats for 2017 so they can have a battlefield game each year.

Pretty sure it is (or at least WAS) free on origin if you still wanted to play it.
It's worth doing it just so you can get "DC Final" mod and see how battlefield is REALLY meant to be played.
I was so into Desert Combat that I played in ladder and any available hour was spent in a 2:1 64 bot match (with me on the 1 side) and farming up thousands of kills in the apache or A-10 etc.
