Quote:


While it wasn't exactly a super secret, EA has yet to officially announce that DICE is working on the next installment in the Battlefield franchise. Apart from the upcoming Bad Company 2, most new titles the Swedish studio has been working on were console iterations, but at a recent conference EA's COO John Pleasants confirmed that DICE is working on Battlefield 3, saying that he "was highly impressed by the way the team is working on that product." Don't get your hopes up just yet, the game isn't due for quite a while.

At last . Hope it will come late 2010 or early 2011.

"A number of Battlefield titles have been announced or released since the release of the last two core titles in the series, Battlefield 2 (pictured above) and the subsequent Battlefield 2142, none of which have been accepted by the PC Battlefield crowd as a true successor. We've heard rumblings about Battlefield 3 in the past, and DICE has said that it hasn't completely abandoned the PC roots of the series. The upcoming Battlefield 1943 seemed like an indication of that, and now the confirmation of a real Battlefield 3 should ease fans' worries that the Battlefield franchise was devoting itself to being entirely console-centric."

"Hasn't completely"

I'm all for this as long as BF3 doesn't become a 1 map affair life BF2 is now.128 players will require bigger and more varied maps. I can only imagine what Strike At Karkand would look like with 128. It's already chaotic and a spamfest as it is.

That would be an extremely retarded and poor business decision. The Battlefield franchise was developed for PC and the majority of the fanbase come from that platform. To make it a console exclusive or a portwould be a slap in the face. I don't give a fuck if they want to make console versions , just don't give PCers a shitty port.

And piracy ain't an excuse as you need a legit key to play online anyway.

Compare to how may who just cycle Strike/Infantry only over and over and over again ? And i'm talking mostly about 64 players/full servers here since no one really care with those 0/16 servers who do a full rotation Laughing

This is far from what we had when the game was launched. Hell , i now have an hard time to find a decent server with SF maps Sad

What we want is a brand new Battlefield game built specifically for PC. What we might get is either a console port or some shady weird pay to play crap. I can't even remember what was the last big FPS game developed mainly for PC without strings attached.

Give me BF1942 remade with better graphics and a few more features, and you got a perfect game.


I hate you.

1943 wil be a watered down, oversimplified remake of the original. 3 classes, 24 player multiplayer, 1 game mode (conquest), regenerating health...that hardly qualifies as "more features". More like "less".
