DICE on building games with soul

CVG - Is the military FPS genre showing some early signs of decline? The YouTube views of the first Battlefield 4 trailer suggest the skies aren't so cloudy: nearly four million people have viewed the video in under three days.

BF4 is kind of a bad example.

Donnieboi4043d ago

I love the bf series but it's the last thing they should attribute to having any soul. DICE shoulda maybe used Mirrors Edge as an example of a game they made instead.

Hydrolex4043d ago

It is huh, good im not the only one, game just feels and looks like bf3...

Tei7774043d ago (Edited 4043d ago )

I guess I'm the only one who thought the characterisation in that 17min demo was awesome, and I don't even play FPS's.

:)
Of Course it is a Bad Example...

In a world financial crisis, as it is possible to create a game so powerful that we have to buy a computer quite expensive to get in running conditions ....!! better to make a game like COD same engine 10 Years ago (most of gamers do not have to spent money) ... and we earn millions ... ehehehe

Give me a break ........... :)

I think BF4 can have a soul.

So far looks like DICE has put a lot of effort into a great depth of player immersion for BF4.

If your playing a game and you have emotions for the NPC's and feel as if your really apart of something then yeh that game has soul.

Games with soul and EA go together like night and day.

Good_Guy_Jamal4043d ago

BF3 single player didn't have soul.

Detoxx4043d ago

It has like 8 million views atm.

Sparticus_14043d ago

if DICE wants soul they need to go back to their roots of BF....worse move they ever made was getting bought out by EA....EA sucks the life out of anything..

Battlefield 1, Hardline, BF4 Servers Are Being Taken Offline by Cheaters; EA Silent on Issue

Cheaters & hackers have been causing grief on Battlefield 1, Hardline & BF4 servers, with nonstop DDoS attacks among other things. Unfortunately, EA has remained silent about it.

-Foxtrot760d ago

Course they are silent, they are hoping people flock to 2042

gamesftw250759d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface758d ago

wouldnt be the first time, titanfall 1+2 anyone?

PapaBop759d ago

Not even if they paid me.. EA always do this with old games with less money potential, if this was Ultimate Team, they'd address and sort it faster than stories could spread. Why invest time in their products when they will just dump it in the following years? Then again EA never could see the forest for the trees.

Inverno759d ago

I imagine after those games were given out for free a couple months back through Amazon, anything that makes people go to 2042 is a plus for them

XiNatsuDragnel760d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps759d ago

Nah. I think they can't do anything about it or they want to sink money into fixing it.

Pudge102888759d ago (Edited 759d ago )

EA owns all BF servers so yes, they can do something about it but they refuse to because they dont want ppl playing their old games instead of the new one. Its EA we’re talking about here

pr33k33759d ago

if this happened in 2042, they'd have something to say. which is weird, considering battlefield 1 has more players on steam right now.

Pudge102888759d ago

Its so obvious that EA is doing this or hired ppl to mess up the games so that we’d be forced to have just 1 Battlefield working.

FPS_D3TH759d ago

Honestly it’s probably the devs themselves. They did an update to bf4 way back that kinda made assault rifles doo doo in hopes that people would flock to BF1 cuz BF4 was too perfect

There's a bunch of great shooters on gamepass; both legacy and new.

A recommendation I have is a work in progress preview title called Anacrusis. It's a lot of fun, and has a cool aesthetic.
