Battlefield V 2018: 10 Things It Must Do Better Than 1

9. Weapon Variety And Customisation

Though Battlefield 1's list of weaponry was a nice change of pace from the M4 Carbines and AK-47s players have been lumped with for over a decade now, it suffered from a severe lack of variety.

Gutting the amount of weapons as well their customisability, the restrictions of the WW1 setting meant that a lot of the guns functioned pretty much identical to each other, and there was no substantial way to tinker with them to fit your playstyle.

Now that they're allegedly moving into World War 2 though, DICE doesn't have the same excuse to justify the lack of content in the next game. While the options on display don't need to hit the ridiculous heights of Battlefield 4, the title does need to give fans more than a paltry handful of guns and attachments to blow other players away with.
