I hope they show a different map soon, while the building falling is cool it's getting old already and I haven't even played the game yet.

john23898d ago

let's hope that the beta test won't feature only this map

dcj05243898d ago

Gamescom confirmed to show "NEW MAP-NEW MODE"

ZodTheRipper3898d ago

I could have laughed through the whole CoD: Ghosts Multiplayer Reveal if it wouldn't be so sad. They yearly make millions with their crap, I just don't get it.

Donnieboi3898d ago

Personally, I feel like this is BF 3.5. Even the animations and voice audio are the exact same from what I've seen so far. I really hope EA isn't forcing DICE to take the minimalist route when it comes to making sequels (like activision did with COD).

I want them to add something "new". Well, at least it has 64 players for consoles. But not much else seems new especially to PC players who already had 64 players.

MusicComposer3898d ago

Just to clarify, it's still only 24 players on the PS3 and Xbox 360. Only the next gen systems allow up to 64 players.

awi59513898d ago

Yeah i dont want to hear that crap COD does the same crap each year and retards eat it up all day long.

ginsunuva3898d ago

Yeah it feels like:

1. They're rushing it to get the current and next-gen audience at once.

2. To re-do console battlefield 3 except done right this time

3. BF3 on pc looks the same as this

illtownNJONE3898d ago

with xbox one 300,000 servers expect 64 players at least

Mikeyy3898d ago

What does Microsoft's 300k servers Have anything to do with battlefield 4?

Battlefield has always had its own dedicated servers. And the ms servers are for Xbox exclusives only. Your not getting dedicateds on cod ghosts so you know...

xKugo3898d ago (Edited 3898d ago )

There isn't much new that you can add to a realistic shooter like BF4. They can't make the game "more real". It's already photo-realistic as is. Radically newer modes come at the cost of lowering the amount of realism that within the game, giving it a more aracady aka "COD" feel.

awi59513892d ago

@Mikeyy

Thats not true titan fall is confirmed to run on microsoft servers.

xKugo3898d ago

I have to agree there, that is getting extremely old but I guess that's partly due to me watching to many videos of BF4 on youtube. However, it was revealed that they are going to show a new map AND a new mode at Gamescom so that should be interesting.

a New map has been confirmed to be, being shown at Gamescom

MizTv3898d ago

Love me some battlefield

user74029313898d ago

PSN ID flamesofhell 44. bf fan right here

JewyMcJew3898d ago

I am not a COD / BF guy. But from what I am gathering from the chatter, it seems that BF4 kills in graphics, but gameplay and controls still goes to COD.

Is that correct?

NarooN3898d ago

I've played a lot of BF and CoD since the early/mid 00's... BF has always had tight controls and great gameplay.

Even though it's subjective, CoD hasn't really done anything to 1-up BF this time.

SillyYou3898d ago (Edited 3898d ago )

lol no.

cod sucks in basially everything. its so popular because its noob friendly and everyone can get kills.

COD: small maps, killstreaks, op weapons, always fast pace gameplay, 12-18 players

BF: big/medium maps, dozens of weapons, vehicles, destruction, fast pace gameplay/slow pace gameplay. In general a lot more action than in COD, 64 players.

twinspectre3898d ago

i don't understand all the disagree

Wingsfan243898d ago

He's getting disagreed with because Call of Duty does'nt suck at "basically everything". Who cares if it's "noob" friendly? There's Gamebattles if you want to play competitively. Stop complaining just to complain.

SillyYou3898d ago

@PockyKing i dont think you get the point. The whole game and gameplay is ment to be easy for everyone. And cod compettivly? lol!.

FullmetalRoyale3898d ago (Edited 3898d ago )

Gameplay and controls are completely opinion based.

It's pretty much impossible to make a factual statement that says one is better than the other.

I prefer the gameplay in the BF series. I like big, open maps with dozens of different things going on at once. There seems to be more variety in BF, at least imo.

As far as controls go, they are relatively similar.

I mean, CoD doesn't feature vehicular combat in multiplayer, so it's impossible to compare that aspect. Shooting is similar in controls, yet the way that they FEEL is how they differ from one another.

Graphics wise I thought that BF3(on consoles) looked better than CoD on consoles. Compare CoD next-gen to BF next-gen and the gap is even more glaring. That is not a dig at fans of CoD.

BF4 will feature 720p(from what I understand) and 60fps on next-gen consoles. Now the 60fps has been what CoD fans have used against BF fans for years now. But with BF4 you have the massive maps, 64 players, destruction, some sort of real-time water simulation, and multiple vehicle types all running simultaneously.

Why the fans of CoD and BF fight in the first place is beyond me, though.

*Edited for typographical errors.

NarooN3898d ago

Actually, CoD1: United Offensive, CoD3, and WaW had vehicular combat.

Just sayin'.

testo63898d ago

Its because COD runs at 60fps...so that makes you feel gameplay and controls smoother... now Battlefield 4 runs at 60fps too... :)

princejb1343898d ago

I agree gameplay goes to bf while controls go to cod
That's one of the reasons I sold bf3 the hip fire sensitivity and the an inning sensitivity just didn't match
One was way faster than the other
I really hope they fix that issue even though I'm still buying bf4 day 1

twinspectre3898d ago

i like BF controls more than COD

T23898d ago

Meh its preference I find cod too easy all guns are pretty much the same just aim and press r1

ginsunuva3898d ago

You're reading the wrong chatter.

hazardman3898d ago

Gathering..lol..

Play it for yourself and find out! Dont go by chatter.
BF is harder to play but far more rewarding when you start getting the hang of it. COD is well...COD!

jonboi243898d ago

They should call the video "why it's better than COD", because that's what there trying to say with this video.

ginsunuva3898d ago

A codfish is better than CoD.

BF shouldn't be competing with them. They should raise their standards.

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.

-Foxtrot751d ago

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

gamesftw250750d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface749d ago

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

PapaBop750d 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.

Inverno750d 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

XiNatsuDragnel751d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps750d ago

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

Pudge102888750d ago (Edited 750d 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

pr33k33750d 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.

Pudge102888750d 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_D3TH750d 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.
