Re: Where is the patch?

On the subject of BF3, in a BF:BC interview, DICE confirmed they were working on another "undisclosed" project using the Frostbite engine.

"undisclosed" project using the Frostbite engine.

Also known as DICE Speak for "BF3".

rostbite is a next-generation FPS engine built from the ground up to power Battlefield: Bad Company and other upcoming games from DICE across all high-end platforms.*

*The engine carries forward the unrivalled online air/ground/sea vehicle and first-person gaming pedigree from previous Battlefield engines, and adds support for massive networked destruction in a large-scale environment.*

*With an all-new rendering engine supporting high-fidelity visuals and effects, and an innovative HDR audio system, the Frostbite engine is one of the few engines that really make use of the unique capabilities of both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 to deliver a truly intense next-generation gaming experience.

Sure. http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/b...niversary.html then http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/b...ml#post5335662

I contacted one of my EA contacts this morning, he wouldnt give me a date but he said it was by the end of this month or in Sept. BFH is also coming soon (Thats well known), We should have that by the 30th of Sept, if not before.

I was on about a link for a date, not the announcement :p

but cheers for the info :)

I hope BF3 is more balanced than BF2 but not botched like BF2142 in terms of infantry/vehicle combat.

Aside from that give me at least 64-players on-line preferably 80-players or more and I'm in.

Urgh, yet more rants with no substance, if you think EA/DICE games have such poor balance then why do you buy them.

I'll skip this argument for now...

Anyhow, most likely BF3 is coming sooner or later because it would be dumb of DICEA to not make another BF game...

Re: Where is the patch?

I agree, it's nearly certain they'll make another PC BF game, just look how popular BF2, and even 1942 and Vietnam are. A lot of games come out, have a few months of people playing online, and then they're deserted.

I have faith in DICE to make a great game, but what I would like to see is some innovation, something really cool in BF3 that pushes the limits of FPS gaming.

Re: Where is the patch?

designers don't ruin games, gamers ruin games, a game relies on the community that play it to create fun scenarios rather than use *** tactics and exploits ... besides patches are based on community feedback so it's our own damn fault lol

you should be glad they even release patches once released they are not obliged to patch it atall
they get no money from the patches so think about it and be a bit grateful yeh ?

I would have been happy with the original black hawks, attack choppers and so on.:|:

Re: Where is the patch?

According to the scuttlebutt, BF3 will be more in the future like 2142 Style, not BF: BC

Oh yes they do. Three words: Bf2 hit detection.

What's a scuttlebutt?

I wouldn't mind a futuristic BF, again, but not so far in the future, more like Ghost Recon, 10 years from now future.

That, or, I would love them to go back to WW2, sort of a sequel to 1942.

Re: Where is the patch?

scuttlebutt is the Navy and Airforce's slang for gossip or rumors.

Re: Where is the patch?

Really? I never knew that! Kinda catchy :)

Whatever BF3 is, roll on. I have high hopes.

Re: Where is the patch?

If i remember correctly they worked on 5 major titles including Bad Company and Herore. So I wonder what the other are.
