Recently it was reported DICE can’t quite figure out what people loved about Bad Company 2. The studio apparently wants to figure this out before even attempting to create a third BC game. Lucas is here to tell DICE exactly why he thinks BC2 is so special.
Halo veteran Marcus Lehto's studio, Ridgeline, will now be joined by DICE on the project.
Battlefield Producer Jaqub Ajmal, who has worked on fan-fave entries such as BF3, BF4 and their DLCs, has announced he's departing DICE.
That's a bad sign but not unexpected given how EA managed the franchise post BF4.
Hopefully he will start his own company and be able to bring a new spin on the shooter genre.
DICE has heard the complaints about Battlefield V's realism (or lack thereof) and it seems the studio is making some changes.
Too bad they won't be changing the weapon attachments that don't do anything other than change appearance... wtf.
It's WWII man. There aren't a lot of weapon attachments and rail systems at this time in history. I was just happy to be able to get a reflex sight on my guns given the general availability of the era.
Guess when they realized some people took their, "if you don't like it, don't buy it" comment to heart, that they actually needed to appeal to the people who would buy the game, instead of the people who make a fuss about things they actually have no interest in spending money on.
It'd be nice if other publishers would take note on this, because it's what people have been preaching to them since gamergate got derailed by Sarkeesian and her supporters. Maybe in the future, they can actually gain some good will from gamers by saying the, "if you don't like it, don't buy it", to those who had no intention or interest in buying it in the first place, and if a developer wants to do something different for artistic reasons, do it in a place where your target audience isn't an established group of what is essentially a core part of the general gaming market, along with droves of typical casual gamers who don't get involved with the politics either way.
Great comment man, I cant agree enough. You should tweet Dice.
I feell though that the damage has already been done and that this will be the least successful BF game in years.
But isn't this exactly what all the haters wanted? Honestly, I'm disappointed they are caving. I hope they don't end up sucking the personality out of the game.
Looks like the pre-orders (money) is making them suddenly see the light.
If only I cared.
Yeah, once I saw the news about pre-orders being weak, I knew something would have to give.
Me too.
Also, I always have a little sigh of relief when I see people using that term correctly. I know it's an American thing to say "I could care less", but what does that even mean!?
I'm no grammar nazi but I'm the same way, just really bugs me to see it used incorrectly idk why.
Great they to hear they at least are waking up now, people want the classic Battlefield and not some fortnite costumization nightmare
Without a doubt my favorite multiplayer on the console battlefields.
Yes it was...sigh
The simplicity of BC2 and the genuine "laidback" design was brilliant. BC2 didn't take itself serious, and multiplayer matches was a blessing..
Nailed it! Also, humor in the campain.
I have hated every BF after BF BC 2.
