Along came a spider with its deadly "bite" that turned mega structures into "frost" aiding its fight. EA Digital Illusions CE built a game and an engine that would not only rival the legacy that was left behind by the erstwhile Red Faction but also provide a key turning point in the genre of first person design and gameplay.
Battlefield: Bad Company arms players with a certain Private Preston Marlowe, recently assigned to the 222nd Battalion, also known as B-company, who are basically a cross between mercenaries and the U.S. army, the point of difference being these guys are dropped first in the line of fire so that minimum number of casualties are ensued when the G.I. Joes on the official payroll enter into the field of combat.
With the franchise’s mainline entries failing to find their footing in recent years, now is the perfect time for a Battlefield: Bad Company remake.
Of course there is no counter argument. This is what fans of the franchise have wanted for years. This and/or BF Bad Company 2.
When asked why there hasn't been another Bad Company:
“There's one thing that lingers with Bad Company that we've been asking ourselves: What is it that the people really liked about Bad Company?" DICE general manager Karl Magnus Troedsson told Eurogamer.
Troedsson says that he and his team can’t put their fingers on what it is that people loved about that branch of the brand. “It's hard for people to articulate what that is, which is actually hard for us,” he says. “It would be hard to remake something like that. Can we do it? Of course. We have our theories when it comes to the multiplayer."

EA: "As we close in on 15 years since the release of Battlefield 1943, and Bad Company™ 1 & 2, we are announcing that their journey is coming to an end."
This reminds me... I have ME on my PS3 hdd. Never really played it, but it was free.
On PC I don't think it's much of a problem but I'm sad to see BF43 being shut down. I haven't played it in a while since it's stuck on PS3, but i preferred it way more over BF3. It was the lack of invisible barriers which made it better for me.
Does anyone play the last BF anymore? I searched crossplay servers and it was 20 people the most on all the servers? Can never find a game
With this multiplayer experiment going every way but right, it's time for Battlefield to return to what made it so great - a fun single player mode coupled with classic multiplayer.
BF is dead especially after this abysmal release.. what have EA done to this beloved franchise.. it’s really upsetting they are so far disconnected from what the actual fans want from this series.. such a same
If they would of made BC3 and stuck to the same formula as BC2 but gave it the next gen treatment it would of been a massive hit
Thing is i dont think they're capable of capturing what made those fun/different anymore.
EA knows players want BC3 the same way Activision knows players want MW2 back. They will not make it because the goal is to make games built around MTX and Battle Royale.
After playing BF:BC and its destructable (however limited it maybe) there is no turning back. I can't even imagine going back to other fps now. I hope all devs of future fps/3ps would consider DE in their games.
it has the best sound in a first person shooter!
that said; I gotta let dice know that the online connection is a
problem! The sound cuts out, I get freezing that pauses the gameplay for
almost 30seconds & WTF with the mic problem?!
this game is great & all but it needs some serious patches because its
getting to be unplayable! I just don't understand whats the hold up?
Damn! sounds like a ps3 problem!
uh oh! Dark SeRaNADE made a "joke" against ps3?!
Ive spread out my arms, awaiting the disagrees and other attacks! ;)
Worth it! :D
