Yestereday DualShockers reported that the build of Battlefield 4 currently running at the Xbox booth at PAX Prime is actually a PC version running on high end PCs.
Some tried to diminish the issue by arguing that those PCs aren’t actually high-end PCs, but either Xbox One development PCs or rigs with specs similar to the Xbox One to faithfully represent what Xbox One owners will see when they’ll finally get their hands on the game.
Unfortunately, that’s not the case at all, and everything about the PCs used at PAX seems to indicate that they're exactly the same PCs used at Gamescom, the specs of which are known. The Xbox One's specs isn't even in the same order of magnitude.
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.
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.
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
Nah. I think they can't do anything about it or they want to sink money into fixing it.
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
if this happened in 2042, they'd have something to say. which is weird, considering battlefield 1 has more players on steam right now.
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.
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
The shooter genre is one of the most beloved videogame genres in the gaming community, and rightfully so. From DOOM Eternal to Battlefield 4, passing through The Outer Worlds, the Xbox Game Pass has a lot to offer when it comes to amazing shooter experiences. Come check out some great shooter games available on Xbox Game Pass!
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.
KeenGamer: "Sometimes a game starts out as a buggy mess and we all just stop and think, “that definitely could have spent a bit more time in the oven”. This is the case for these 5 games which infamously marked their place in recent game memory."
I am not surprised if it is as DICE has been running this game on high end PC all over the place (regardless of Xbox One or PS4).edit: the only snipit we have had for a console version is what IGN (on the PS4) said which sounded no where near finished
It's DICE after all
uh oh...
Pathetic, I don't know who's to blame Microsoft for not giving them long enough with a dev kit or DICE for being scared to show their own game on the console.
This has been reported already and this is the second article I have seen from this submitter on the same subject.
In the UK we use the term 'shit stiring'.
On topic it is most dissapointing that console versions are not being shown on their target hardware in a decent state. It would be good to know at this stage how close they are likely to be to the fantastic PC visuals we have seen. Given the known availability of Xbox one kits that we have seen being used by other devs I can't understand how DICE cannot show the two together unless there are substantial issues with the software.
So that means the pc version is gimped and full of bugs.
