10 Things Battlefield 1 Already Does Better Than Call Of Duty: Infinite Warfare

8. A Reworked Melee System

Why would a melee system in one of the biggest FPS franchises even be of any importance?

Well, World War I had a lot more close quarters combat encounters, either in the trenches or with someone meeting the business end of a bayonet. DICE has confirmed the addition of melee weapons in Battlefield including shovels, sabres, bayonets and trench clubs, all of which should add to the aspect of you fighting for your life in this bleak environment of World War I.

Black Ops III did add melee weapons to its multiplayer, but it all just worked like a re-skinned knife. Plus, it never felt like a viable option in the fast-paced environment. A bayonet back in World War I was still a thing to be feared -chances are you'll find yourself at the wrong end of one more than a couple times as you rush around a corner in the multiplayer.

It's just another differentiating gameplay mechanic that will make the game feel gritty - one that needed to be done. It'll be interesting to see how it gets worked into the campaign as well.

An intense, mud-caked stealth section in enemy trenches? I can dream.
