Ok, so I'll admit that BF2 swallowed up far more of my time than any similar game, but still - is ANOTHER gritty multiplayer recent war shooter really what the market needs at the moment, no matter how carefully balanced the guns are or what the company's credential are? Especially one that you indicate has done away with any semblance of single player at all?toapat said:1: Dice has been the only company to handle Battlefield. they have made one other game otherwise.

2: Weapon Balance: the reason why Call of Duty 6 is shit is because it doesnt have vehicles, but it has the anti-vehicle weapons. what in Battlefield is a tactical necessity, is an abusable oversight in CoD. Black Ops is shit because a separate company was brought in to develop it, and that company did not truly look into the sucesses and failures of the prior game, resulting in a game on the absolute opposite end of the see-saw.
3: Bad Company 1 & 2 show the penultimate issue with designing a FPS for single and multiplayer without sufficient time. BC2 has the same issue as CoD7 where there are weapons a full head and shoulders better then others, but nowhere near as glaring. Battlefield 3 loses the shitty singleplayer for an enhanced multiplayer.
But it doesn't tease. Teasers should get you interested, this frankly doesn't. It's just boring.I said:Dude, it's a TEASER, they very rarely show anything useful, so how is this teaser rubbish, if it's just like every other teaser? Movie teasers usually show more, but, the majority of games teasers I've seen are pretty much like this.
Yeah, only that it's going to be 3!I said:So it's going to be like Battlefield 2?...Moonpooman said:According to PC Gamer it's going to have 64 player matches and jet fighters, among other things.

Fall's before the end out the year. Around like September and October, and that's the news, form USAland.SIXVI06-M said:DA DA DA DA-DUN DUN!
And yes, I hope this is more like BF2 except improved. Like guns that actually shoot straight. Didn't like Bad Company... just lacked the feel of the original BF series and well... was too much like COD:MW series - got boring real quick because it didn't seem to know what to be at the end of the day; "should I be a BF game or a COD game?"
Looking forward to see how this new installment in the BF series will set itself apart.
Also- can someone explain to me when "FALL" is in non-planetUSAland language? Seriously not everyone comes from America, the Fall that happens in my country is around about mid-next-month. Does that mean BF3 will come out next month in my country?
That's because it IS just any FPS. Looks like it'll just be BF2 with a new coat of paint.Calcium said:I know it's meant to be a teaser trailer, but come on. If it wasn't for the title at the end that could be any FPS.
...until they stop playing= game dies completely, without any singleplayer to hold it up or bring any replayability at all.toapat said:in short: no true singleplayer=More resources towards MultiplayerWicky_42 said:one that has done away with any semblance of single player at all?
More Resources towards multiplayer= better multiplayer
better multiplayer= more people playing
more people playing= more fun
