DICE To Begin Development of “Next Generation of Titles”?

MP1st - Could the team behind Battlefield 3 be preparing to begin work on their next project? Recent evidence suggests that Digital Illusion CE (DICE) is indeed beginning to shift focus away from Battlefield 3 and onto something new, perhaps even towards the “next generation.”

it would be nice if they fixed somethings in their somewhat broken game.

BF3 would've been an excellent experience if they just delayed the damn thing a couple of months but nooo have to try and compete with COD.. *sigh*

Dont burn me but i think i liked bad company 2 more.

Tanks are powerful.
RPGs could shatter your body into a million pieces.
Basically, powerful weapons are powerful.
Shitty ones are...well..shitty!

The thing with battlefield 3 is that everything feels weak and nerfed!

Brosef on your tank run thermal, proximity sensor, and canister shell/coaxial lmg. You can dominate entire teams if you have a competent gunner.

and rpgs arent that bad you just have to hit people with em. Theyre getting a nerf in february due to all the rpg snipping that is going on in game.

I had fun with BC2 also but one you adjust to all the changes in BF3. You'll start to love in just as much. Dont worry i was in that zone as well. It felt wrong but u'll get there.

Totally agree. Bad Company 2 gameplay was just plain fun. Battlefield 3 screwed up vehicles too much and there is no situation awareness(at least for me). It should not take three rockets to take out a Humvee or more than one rocket to destroy a little bird.

works fine on PC. Sorry ps3 is not the only console sorry to burst your bubble

[krazykombatant]

lol i'm not a ps3 owner, i'm a 360 owner.

I'm just going to say it.
I hate BF3 and I don't even know why.
I played it and got bored within 2 minutes.
I think I'm just burnt out with FPS games...

"I think I'm just burnt out with FPS games..."
Ohh that's why you picked that avatar image. It all makes sense now. ;)

[Hufandpuf]

2 minutes?

*slams door in face*

[Criminal]

I hope they'll make Mirror's Edge 2 next.

[pandehz]

Yes Mirrors Edge 2 please. I still play it sometimes.

Or a new IP

What about the "great" DLC plans they stated? If they are not going to support the community then gives us the map tools (PC).

[Hufandpuf]

"next gen" is anyone's guess. I think it would be appropriate though considering the huge difference in fidelity between PC and console versions of BF3. So it might not be another Battlefield game, but definitely a Frostbite 2 game on next gen consoles. That means, DICE's next game won't come out on current gen consoles and that next gen consoles are closer than we think.

But Mirror's Edge 2 has been in development for some time now I'm sure, so I'm thinking...

1. Medal Of Honor 2
2. Mirror's Edge 2
3. Next gen systems.

If anyone played BFBC2 to the end then you KNOW that there's gotta be a BC3. They blatantly set it up. Definitely not so soon though. Mirror's Edge 2 would be pretty sick on their new Frostbite 2 engine, however.

[Hufandpuf]

I REALLY doubt we will see a BFBC3. And if we do, it won't be anytime soon. And why go back to the Bad Company series? If anything BF3 is a merge of BF2 and Bad Company. Really, going back to BC would be a downgrade because remember, they didn't include jets or huge multiplayer maps. It was basically a Spinoff to get the BF franchise onto consoles. I at least want to see the Bad Company guys again, but if we did have a BC3, we'd have to fight Russians again, and I'm sure a LOT of people want to move on from that theatre.

[hmmmm]

But it's always Russians in multiplayer anyway only the campaign is different!
