DICE: Bad Company Multiplayer Maps "Certainly a Possibility" as Battlefield 3 DLC

AusGamers recently interviewed Battlefield 3 producer, Patrick Liu, and spoke about a number of things, including the potential for Bad Company series multiplayer maps arriving as part of Battlefield 3 DLC.

"Yeah, that’s certainly a possibility," he told AusGamers. "We don’t have anything planned right now, but we’ll see. We’ll get the community feedback and see what people want to play."

The rest of the interview also talks about including 1942's naval ships, co-op bots, PC dedicated server rental and more on potential LAN support.

LOL, of course its a possibility. It will cost them almost nothing and take less work and they can charge people again for maps that are already made.

They will still have to re-program them for the new engine like they did with the bad company 1 maps in BC2. And also adjust to accommodate gam play changes.

How very call of duty like re-releasing old maps as part of DLC. Hope they don't plan on charging a lot for them. Be nice to see if EA stick to their guns (which they won't).. I'm pretty sure when BC2 came out, they were touting that they'd never charge for extra maps.

How very call of duty??? haven't played BF before have you?

Tachyon_Nova5012d ago

Agree with the guy above me.

BF2 had at least one map from 1942, 1943 literally was just remade 1942 maps. BC2 got a bunch of maps added from BC1 and BF3 back to karkand is maps from BF2.

gcolley5012d ago

BC1 maps YES
BC2 maps whatever

No matter how great that would be do not count on it. They would need to be visually upgraded anyway which (for any company) warrants charging for. Gaming is like every other business. How much money can we get out of the consumer with putting less in (i.e. bigger profits)

OT I found the BC maps not that good. There was nothing there too remediable. However, they should do it from a business perspective

Hmmm, BC1 maps as DLC on BC2, and now BF3?......lame

Battlefield 3 Cut Missions From Campaign Detailed by Former DICE Dev

Battlefield 3's former Lead Designer has revealed that there were two cut missions from the main campaign

XiNatsuDragnel174d ago

I wish someone can get those EA game leaks to see all the cut content ngl

anast174d ago

Get rid of campaigns, move the game to mobile, and try to compete with warzone. They would save time and money.

Bf4 was fun hope the new bf is just as good.

hmmm I think there will be no old BF glory days for EA since they are loyal to their greediness and laziness :D

Knightofelemia960d ago

You're asking for a miracle with EA that will never happen unless they can exploit the money making schemes behind it.

MadLad959d ago

We'll see what happens now that Zampella is overlooking the series.
