Isn't it too close to the last BF3 DLC? This is not cool! They should have worked on BFBC3. I don't see a need of a new Battlefield game so soon. What do you guys say?
Sounds more like where Bad Company 3 should have been released to me. Its nowhere near the Fall release of Call of Duty. I don't get EA's plan. Saying your not releasing a game every year, but releasing it every 1 year + 1 month away is not that different.
Really 1 year and 1 month? They gave a very broad release range Apr 2013 - Mar 2014 is a long time and we all know it will end up releasing in the fall as usual.
Anyone that thinks the game will release in April of next year 6 months after Medal of Honor, is delusional
Really A year and 1 month? They said Apr 2013- Mar 2014 which is a really broad timeframe. 9 times out of 10 it will release in Fall 2013 as usual barring any development issues that would push it to 2014.
Anyone that thinks BF4 will release in April, 6 months after Medal of Honor Warfighter, is delusional
Medal of Honour to Battlefield is basically Goldeneye Reloaded to Call of Duty, HaVing the same engine doesn't make it the same game. E.g. Call of duties use a modified Quake III engine.
A PC Gamer's Perspective At least Dice deliver solid PC ports that's all I care about , I resent playing with controller and I will not be forced into buying the console version just because Bobby Kotick made IW ruin MW2 by stripping it of all it's glory:
- Balanced Game Play - Dedicate servers - Field of view modifiable without legal hacks - In Game Console Commands "/cg_fov" - Cheaters could be banned with server control - Punkbuster
Can't beleive Activsion had the audacity to take down AlterIWNet which fixed all the problems which Activsion caused.
Then Bob Kotick made all the talent leave to post launch and now we have MW3 which is even worse.
Just re-installed CoD 4 on the PC and it's awesome , alas Activsion are ass holes.
People will say EA is the worse and I respect there opinion because they have there bad moments , but from a PC gamers perspective that has played FPS for years, I have been burnt so many more times by Activsion on the PC.
November 2013 confirmed then. I wonder if the next gen versions will release at the same time as current gen versions? It'd be a pretty sweet Xbox 720 launch title.
What in the world are you talking about? Microsoft has dev kits out right now, they have had them out for almost two years. Microsoft had everyone remove their 50+ page document that specified a 2013 Xbox 720 launch. 80% of their studios are working on next gen titles.
Of course next gen is coming next year, Nintendo's next gen console comes THIS YEAR.
Until a next gen console from MS and Sony is announced its all speculation, we barely have a release date for the Wii-U.
I doubt Sony and MS is planning to announce and release their next gen consoles in the same year, it only happened once with the Sega Saturn and we know how successful that console was
My MS insider at my site is saying 2013 boys. Be ready. Oh, and remember this little tidbit, and remember where you heard this... but Perfect Dark will be a Durango launch title, and the new controller will have rumble on the analog sticks, and rumble on the trigger buttons, as well as a screen on the controller in the middle, that you can't tell is there when it's turned off.
People are delusional if they think Battlefield 4 is coming for current-gen console, it doesn't matter if some websited has it for pre-order on current-consoles.
YOU'RE the one who is delusional if you think EA isn't going to release a port on the massive 120+ million install base of the current-generation consoles. Do you think EA doesn't like money?
BF4 will come out for current-gen consoles, with higher-fidelity ports for next-gen consoles shortly thereafter (possibly simultaneous).
Ok I know it's hard to have a valid conversation on N4g.com but let's try anyway..
Why do people think it's only coming to nex gen when nex gen won't even have a million consoles sold by the time the game comes out..
That would make really bad business sense. Plus there is already millions of PS3 gamer's who would buy your game in a heartbeat on current gen.
So Of course it's coming out on PS3 and Xbox 360
-Now maybe there will be a nex gen version that Looks like the PC version that can only run on nex gen consoles, but it's indeed coming to the current consoles.
I just don't see how EA/DICE would drop a beta on current gen and then make the actual game nex gen only..
Why are people disagreeing with you? The only thing I'd add to what you said would be a higher console player count. With most 12 vs 12 games you have 70% of all players in vehicles which leaves you with basically only 2 squads actually playing the objective...
On Console at least, jets have ruined the flow of this game.
Some people like CoD box arenas, and moderate sized maps. I like Battlefield 2/Bad Company 2 large scale maps.
I think consoles should get extra helicopter or two and no jets. Everyone on console jumps in a vehicle. Like OMG yes I can drive there. Its not that far really. I think there is only 1 BF 3 map with a semi-decent size.
Wow Battlefield 4 already thought they would atleast make Bad Company 3 before making another Battlefield series.Do this mean Medal of Honor and the Battlefield series are the focus now?
I was really looking forward too Bad Company 3 since I was personally letdown by Battlefield 3.
its the red headed step child of bf games (sorry gingers) It has to be the absolute worst bf game besides modern combat or whatever garbage port the made way back in the day....or (shudder) that free to play bfheroes....... what i played of the first bfbc on 360 LONG ago it was a steaming turd, might has well have been modern combat.
the best bf game BY FAR is BF2, followed by BF3, then BF2142, then the old classics, vietnam and 1942
I was hoping for BF2143, but BF4 is awesome sauce!!
Bad company had crappy tiny maps and only 12v12 or 16v16
i'll take 32v32 anyday
many servers are doing 40v40, which is perfect for some of the really large maps, the 64v64 servers are kind of pushing it for the current maps
I cannot wait for bf4, hopefully they do some HUGE maps that allow for true playability with 64v64 players, because those games are fun times:)
bad company has better destruction and the better story..characters have an actual personality. what is it that bf3 has over it? because when i was playing it, honestly felt like a more polished version of cod.
will not be getting unless i get it on ps4. BF3 sucked in my opinion. They never fixed the major input lag for me so all it did was piss me off along with lots of other annoying little things they did.
*Just cause im curious, if you still suffer from input lag hit like on this comment. If not hit dislike. * thanks
buy a new tv. i have no input lag. my brother also had input lag on his new 3d tv which made it unplayable after dices so called fixes...anyways he bought another tv like mine and no input lag wut so ever.
i have 4 hd tvs here and on 3 of them there is input lag. Haven't tried the last one but why would i spend money on a another tv just cause one game (BF3) has lag. No. srry. Dice admitted it was a problem on there part. btw there was no input lag in the open beta for bf3. SO they messed up Big time. Glad you are good though. God bless
There is still some input lag, but it's been reduced significantly after the last patch. It's far from optimal, and still laggier than the 360 version, but it's perfectly playable.
Fyi, I use a CRT TV with ZERO input lag. Thus, it's not the fault of my TV.
I'm not getting it unless its next gen tittle. I have bf3 and all the DLC coming. Poor planning on them. They should of took a note from rockstar and kept a title going for a while and then put out a sequel. There is no need for another one. I cant imagine the game being any leap and bound over bf3, it probably be bf3.2 kinda how the battlelog fags and nerf squad turned bf3 into bc2.5. Lately their servers are laggier then ever since they "updated their servers" and the sound cutout on danavan peak is getting old.
They should aim for the garbage or the bargain bin instead.
Battlefield is trash. BFBC2 was the last quality game Dice made and the last one they'll get my money for. Hope they do with Dice what they've done with every other developer they've ruined.
Well Battlefield 4 beta comes out fall of 2013, you cant release a game before then. The game is not coming out before fall of 2013 get your facts straight

Anyone that thinks BF4 will release in April, 6 months after Medal of Honor Warfighter, is delusional
What is wrong with that??? That's normal for a sequel.
I realy hope that Dice dosnt start to push out new game every year like COD series works..
EDIT. PS. they SHOULD at least release DLC faster then..
The beta is scheduled for fall 2013, yet we should expect the game as soon as April 2013??
lol
This sounds like its going to be a next gen title!
BC2
Medal of Honour
BF3
Medal of HonouR
BF4
All are basicaly BF game with same engine, same graphics just different settings, weapons and features. No different than COD's.
DICE is a bitch of EA, just as infinityward is a bitch of Activi$ion
At least Dice deliver solid PC ports that's all I care about , I resent playing with controller and I will not be forced into buying the console version just because Bobby Kotick made IW ruin MW2 by stripping it of all it's glory:
- Balanced Game Play
- Dedicate servers
- Field of view modifiable without legal hacks
- In Game Console Commands "/cg_fov"
- Cheaters could be banned with server control
- Punkbuster
Can't beleive Activsion had the audacity to take down AlterIWNet which fixed all the problems which Activsion caused.
Then Bob Kotick made all the talent leave to post launch and now we have MW3 which is even worse.
Just re-installed CoD 4 on the PC and it's awesome , alas Activsion are ass holes.

Next year belongs to Bad Company 3
EA has already confirm that BF4 is to release proir to BFBC3.
BC 3 November 2013
Of course next gen is coming next year, Nintendo's next gen console comes THIS YEAR.
I doubt Sony and MS is planning to announce and release their next gen consoles in the same year, it only happened once with the Sega Saturn and we know how successful that console was
