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.
I think this is what most of us are interested in:
GNPC: Are there going to be any new features server or browser side for people to look forward to like a better server admin interface or search functions?
Yee: The focus on this expansion is really on the Special Forces. We also have the live team which is still handling Battlefield 2 support, which is looking at fixing a lot of those other problems.
IGNPC: So hopefully a lot of that stuff will be taken care of before this expansion comes out.
Yee: Hopefully.
So they aren't even focusing on fixing anything. In fact, hopefully isn't a very good answer. No game browser fixes, nothing. Just pushing more content for more money. *sigh*
