How the new consoles will help DICE keep Battlefield 4 updated as an "ongoing service"

Battlefield 4′s multiplayer beta is coming very soon, and DICE has been keen to talk about how the game will cope with being released on both current and next-gen consoles. One of the biggest differences is that it’ll be far easier on next-gen for players to get hold of the latest updates. The idea is to offer an “ongoing service.”

Sounds good, but ongoing service always goes wrong ^^

btw: The guy in the picture looks like: joey from the serie friends ^^

bumnut3859d ago

Battlefield has ended up like a free to play game that isn't free!

"Ongoing" to them means: how can we milk more from you? Greedy EA better not start charging for ammo and reloads, they would though.

Hufandpuf3858d ago

How about you just dont buy the game? The Premium service for bf3 was great. So why the fuss now?

Pillsbury13858d ago (Edited 3858d ago )

Listen, they ruined plants vs zombies 2 with micro transactions and will do the same to other series. I love dice and I love battlefield but EA is trying to turn it into the next mega cash cow. If you like getting nickel and dimed for everything that SHOULD HAVE been included then that's you.

Ea takes great series and ruins them with greed.

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.

-Foxtrot752d ago

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

gamesftw250751d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface751d ago

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

PapaBop751d 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.

Inverno751d 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

XiNatsuDragnel752d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps751d ago

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

Pudge102888751d ago (Edited 751d 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

pr33k33751d 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.

Pudge102888751d 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_D3TH751d 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.
