The
Battlefield Blog has some of the
promised new details on
Battlefield 3, saying the next installment in DICE's military shooter series is due for release this fall for Windows, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3. The update calls this the "true successor to Battlefield 2," saying it will have full single-player and co-op campaigns as well as 64-player (on the PC) multiplayer, as well as the return of jets and (wait for it) prone. They also offer a
teaser trailer, and promise more details throughout this month in magazine coverage, starting with the new issue of
Game Informer, where they have word on the game's use of DICE's new game engine: "it wasn't until the company developed the powerful new Frostbite 2 engine that it felt all the pieces were in place to create a proper follow-up. Armed with powerful upgrades like deferred rendering, real-time radiosity, a new animation system borrowed from the EA Sports label, and an exponential leap in destructibility, executive producer Patrick Bach dubs Frostbite 2 'the best piece of technology on the market when it comes to building games'." In a bold move, the
Battlefield 3 Website offers
preorders of the limited edition without yet revealing what it includes.

I've seen you do some bitching around here too btw Oh no doubt. I wasn't excluding myself by any means. Hell look at the critiquing I did in the post you quoted.
Regarding BF though, that always seems to be the trade-off. Big maps, vehicles and large scale battles at the expense of shooting mechanics. I want both damnit!
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't keeping an eye on this, though. I just found all of the buzz and excitement here interesting. Especially because DICE games usually have noticeable flaws and blues is the place to go to see them pointed out. With BF, the good just happens to outweigh the bad. Which is good, but not great. |
