Battlefield 4: “It’s important to grow up a bit”

Edge:Millions came to Call Of Duty for the singleplayer, and stayed for the multiplayer; perhaps DICE and EA feel that they have won the battle in terms of online play, but can only win the war by beating its great rival’s bombast and spectacle in Battlefield 4’s solo campaign. We spoke to DICE executive producer Patrick Bach to find out more.

They did it the whole time during the development of bf3 and we know how well bf3's single player turned out. Maybe bf4 will be better, but it's the same old song and dance as last time so far.

I have never played a battlefield game, and I've played and owned every COD game.

I can say 100% that I am completely sick of COD games.

They just don't appeal to me anymore. I need something more. I've evolved and so have millions of others.

I won't touch COD until they get it right next gen, and so if BF4 is good I might give it a try.

I've been having fun playing planetside 2 so I know it's not just FPS games that I'm sick of....

We need a little bit more realism in games that are pretending to be "real"

Jayjayff4024d ago

Took you this complete generation to notice Cod has gone down the shitter?

SolidStoner4025d ago

I disliked latest BO2 singel player.. it was crap.. sold the CD, this time even multiplayer sucked!

and about BF3 single player also crap.. it was fun for 3 hours and then it was all the same with no feel for realism, just stupid Hollywood shooting..

and after watching BF4 SP, it felt the same.. just random stupid shooting with no purpose and chopper flying 2 feet above head.. looked just dumb..

so in the end they both suck in SP, but the multiplayer is Battlefields strength... So im hoping there are more open world maps, with huge areas alot of equipment, customization and air/land vehicles... and they have to make WW2 game again, and then Vietnam!!! Its a must, Im tired of this auto tracking auto locking bull shit, I want to decide who lives and dies not some scripted automated rockets and stuff!!

Those are now days warfare weapons and tech. As this things advance in real life so will they in warfare video games. Just my opinion. But I prefer BF over COD anyday! The MP now has something for everyone, CQ combat maps ala COD and the full blown warfare of big maps with air and ground vehicles. There's also the co-op part of it.

famoussasjohn4024d ago

BF4 dropped co-op and will be SP and MP.
BF3's co-op was okay, wish it had more missions via DLC or something to give it a little bit of use.

BlackPrince 424025d ago

Heard this same hype about BF3 two years ago.

The campaign was a lifeless bore.

sovietsoldier4025d ago

bf4 is bf3 just with more cowbell and glitter.

Ace_Pheonix4024d ago

I'm always glad when developers respond to the "more cowbell" demands, but they are throwing in glitter too!?! Count me in!

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.

-Foxtrot756d ago

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

gamesftw250755d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface755d ago

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

PapaBop755d 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.

Inverno755d 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

XiNatsuDragnel756d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps755d ago

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

Pudge102888755d ago (Edited 755d 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

pr33k33755d 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.

Pudge102888755d 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_D3TH755d 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.
