I'd love to see a Battlefield 3 trailer of some sort and it's about time they showed something from BC2: Vietnam. It'll be out in a few months and the recent announcement of, no more BC2 maps, yeah it's time to give BC2 players something to look forward to and hold their interest in the game.

Both, yeah that would be ideal :)

1: Battlefield 1943 maps.
2: Rallisport Challenge 3 (...or make RSC2 backwards compatible...)

BTW, there's a typo in the title.

AnttiApina5430d ago

This is not even a rumour. They say it in the offical blog that they have something to show.

Here's hoping for BF 3 trailer.

socomnick5430d ago (Edited 5430d ago )

This vietnam expansion better feel more like bf 1943 and less like bc2 . I want planes.

SeanRL5430d ago

Planes would be awesome, they need to make bigger maps with planes and actual boats. Driving onto the shore being shot at by planes at the start of BF1943 matches is epic.

DelbertGrady5430d ago

I sold my copy of BF BC 2 cause I got tired of not getting any new maps, but I'm thinking of getting the new edition they are relasing cause the Vietnam pack sounds great. At first I thought I'd get Black Ops or MoH instead but from what I've seen neither of them looks to hold a candle against BF BC 2. I really miss the big maps in conquest mode :(

ElementX5430d ago (Edited 5430d ago )

I sold my copy because all these war games have crap graphics, pixelated textures, 2D foliage.... it's pitiful.

ElementX5430d ago (Edited 5430d ago )

Care to explain what part of my comment was false? I'd like examples instead of stealth disagrees. Stand up against any wall or texture and it's a pixelated mess. Look at any foliage and it's 2D, flat and boring.

dooge5430d ago (Edited 5430d ago )

I think people are disagreeing with you because real gamers focus more on gameplay, not graphics.

Emmettcelticfan5430d ago

Please let it be a mirror's edge 2 anouncement

kneon5430d ago

That's the one I'm waiting for. I don't know how long it's been this way but they use an image of Faith on their web page

http://www.dice.se/

If that's relatively new then it's a good sign.

Syaz15430d ago

well, last i checked vg chartz, it sold about 1.5 million copies. that's pretty impressive for a new ip, let alone a non-standard fps without a space marine. it's a massively underrated game, i hate when it gets hate for trying to be fresh and original, of course being a new concept, it will have problems. if they did a 2nd one, surely they'll fix the flaws.

i have FAITH in a mirror's edge sequel.

DeeZee5430d ago

Yeah, enough with the war games! Mirrors Edge 2 please!!

turgore5430d ago

I'd love that too A LOT but I doubt it'l happen so soon. Why ? Dice seems incredibly busy right now. Battlefield 3. BAd Company Vietnam. Medal of Honor multiplayer.
However they could announce it but we will have to wait a LOONG time.

Lausie0075430d ago

Yeah they are really busy and they are also working on Need for Speed: Hot pursuit.

il-mouzer5430d ago

maybe BF3, which will have separate console and pc versions… I'd probably end up buying both of them :P

MRHARDON5430d ago

People support DICE and all they do is release there game and never support there product via DLC by giving up new maps and not more gametypes for the same maps.

Mabey they will show a in depth preview on how they f*cked up on Medal of Honor BETA :)

Yi-Long5430d ago

... because in the old days, with Rallisport Challenge 2, their support for that amazing game was fantastic, with free DLC and daily, weekly and monthly challenges.

Would be nice to see them support a game like Battlefield 1943 a bit more. It's been bought and loved by MANY players, yet we still only have 3 maps and are extremely hungry for more...

Syaz15430d ago

people will complain if they release paid dlc's, saying they're ripping off gamers and so on. anyway, if that's the wish of bfbc2 fans, then good luck with it.

In addition to the roughly 100 job cuts IGN reported earlier today at Respawn Entertainment, EA has made wider cuts across its organization today, impacting around 300 individuals total including those already reported at Respawn.

Lightning7758d ago

Absolutely insane. Man I'm hope they land on their feet EA needs to get the shit together badly....

This is why this industry has slow releases and none compelling games.

127maXimus58d ago

Why would anyone willingly work in the VG industry or specifically for one of these globocorp organizations that put you in constant fear of losing your livelihood based on terrible choices made by idiotic management, not the people with talent making the actual games?
