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.
"As for Shataan and Beamer's comments"
My point is that the community by in large has whined incessantly, many IN the gaming community that is, that they got owned in earlier games by the so called super soldiers. The non teamplayers etc etc etc. So game devs go go out of their way to force Class reliance so that you can no longer "Rambo". I happen to like that term btw. lol
And it is true. In BF 2 you are pretty ineffective if you are not in close contact with your squad. Now an xpack is arriving to more or less placebo the individual into thinking... using their words in the Q&A, "make you feel like a super soldier". To make the player feel more powerful.
Pretty contradictive... from my pov.
On the other hand, I love BF 2. IMHO it could be a tad more looser and not force so much squad reliance. But as annoying as it can get at times, BF 2 is the most fun I have had since Delta Force 2. And when this xpack arrives, I will be buying it most likely.
