Battlefield 3's "Back to Karkand" expansion included remakes of four of the most popular maps from Battlefield 2. One map that wasn't included was Dragon Valley. In a new interview with EA's gaming show PWNED, lead designer Niklas Fegraeus explained why they decided not to use it.
Today Electronic Arts announced its financial results for the first quarter of the fiscal year 2024, related to the period between April 1 and June 30, 2023.
EA chief executive officer Andrew Wilson was asked about the company's plans for the Star Wars franchise and the possibility of acquisitions.
They're not looking to acquire, but are they looking to be acquired? That's the big question now with companies like EA, T2, etc.
I really want them to finish up Cal's story so LucasFilm are free to use him in a TV show or Film if he survives in the end anyway
Cal or Ezra should be rebuilding the Jedi Temple Order...not Rey.
EA has announced it's developing a brand new third person Black Panther game in conjunction with Marvel at its newly formed Cliffhanger Games.
I've always wanted a Black Panther game...
...I can't say I've always wanted EA to make said Black Panther game.
Reserving judgment, but my feeling is that this game, at best, gets a maximum aggregate score of 70 on metacritic. Not really convinced EA has the vision to pull this off.
... so the B2K mappack was free. They're pretty much the best maps in the game.
If I would have been stuck with just the 9 maps that come with BF3, I probably wouldn't be playing the game anymore, cause too many of those levels kinda lack that Battlefield freedom we know and love.
Maps like Metro, Crossing the Seine, Tehran Highway and Damavand Peak are just too small and straighforward for my liking. It seems like they were put in mostly to win over the CoD crowd, sadly.
I wouldn't mind a map pack with new asian inspired settings. Maybe just like out in the streets or w/e. Make it completely new instead of porting over old maps (while still including Dragon Valley in that map pack).
I think all of the maps in the game are more or less amazing. The ones I like the least are probably Metro and Tehran Highway, but they are still great compared to maps in other FPS games. BF3 set a new standard in map design imo. Firestorm is just mindblowing.
It's all goooooooood
I didn't like Dragon Valley that much anyway. Now what they should have remade was Great Wall, now that has an Asian setting and a castle to siege.
