Personally, I don't like too realistic. I'm more of a fan of BF3/4 style of play, I'd imagine it's very similar or maybe the same. I even enjoyed Star Wars BF (although it was very limited) but in terms of gameplay, I liked it. Unless there is some news of changes, I don't see a drastic change here. They could add a "hardcore" type mode, which is cool. But who knows, with horses and shovels, maybe this game will be much more different than the others. I'm not pre-ordering anytime soon either, but I likely will to be able to play earlier and get the season pass too. Based on my history of BF3/4 I will put over 100 hours into it and play all of the DLC maps. Then again, this is EA and they could totally fuck this up and fuck me over, but for a game I love like BF I'd likely take that risk.
