BF2: Special Forces Announced [Jul 14, 2005, 10:05 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
With the dull thud still audible from the release of the first abortive BF2 patch,
EA and Digital Illusions
Announce Development of Battlefield 2 Special Forces Expansion Pack
unveils plans for the first expansion for DICE's military shooter sequel.
There's also a
Battlefield 2: Special Forces Q&A on IGN discussing the project, revealing
that new features will include a grappling hook and night vision goggles (along
with an end to the nine-to-five war with the inclusion of night maps where the
goggles will be useful). Here's a bit from the announcement for the add-on, which
is due this fall:
In Battlefield 2: Special Forces, players will choose to fight as one of 6 different Special Forces soldiers -- Navy SEALs, British SAS, Russian Spetznas, MEC Special Forces, Rebel groups and insurgents. Armed with the latest Special Forces weaponry, players can take control of any of the game's 10 new vehicles to engage in major conflicts with up to 64 players. Additionally, persistent character growth allows players to continue to rise through the ranks.
Battlefield 2: Special Forces takes the intensity and quality of Battlefield 2 behind the scenes of news headlines, showcasing the most elite and deadly forces in the modern military world. Using accurate Special Forces weapons, gadgets, and vehicles, these covert armies battle to control key military and strategic locations.
" So where Battlefield 2 is a playground for your regular grunt soldier, you put Special Forces in there and they can do all of these wonderful things that have the player feel like a SUPER SOLDIER now.
The battlefield environment is still Battlefield gameplay, but EVERYONE FEELS A BIT MORE POWERFUL now. They have toys and abilities that they wouldn't normally have in the regular Battlefield."
What gets me, is that the whiners all wanted a game in the mil combat genre where dudes were totally reliant on the squad, and could NOT be super soldiers. DICE made that game in BF 2.
But in this xpack they want you to FEEL more powerful, and FEEL more like a super soldier. hahahahahahahaha Sounds like a plan eh? So now we will STILL be uber reliant on a squad, but with a few new toys we will FEEL a tad more powerful, superior, and effective? Bat(tlefield)Man Begins! LOL
