  • Offical news of squad rush mode.

    We'd like to officially announce the new gamemode and clarify the details surrounding the "Squad Rush" gamemode for BFBC2. So let's start with the video and get into it shall we. :-)

    Squad Rush Summary

    Gamemode: Squad Rush puts a squad of four players versus another squad of four players for a max of eight player matches in this intense one crate/two base infantry only version of the Rush gamemode.



    How To Access "Squad Rush" at Launch

    North America: All customers that pre-order from GameStop (local retail store or website) on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 will have an Exclusive Access* for 30 days to play the "Squad Rush" gamemode and any friends they bring with them. This means you can always play with your friends if you have the Exclusive Access* never forcing you to split from them, plus those that have this Exclusive Access* are a bit more popular... even if only for 30 days. ;-)



    Rest of The World: No Exclusive Access, as we will make it available at launch (no extra cost) and you can also invite any of your American buddies to play as well.



    * No Exclusive Access on PC, as we'll make the gamemode available at launch (no extra cost) instead.

        GameStop most likely paid EA to get 30 days of exclusivity on the game mode so impatient people would buy from there.

          This is great news. Because, you know, when I think of a 'Battlefield' game, the first thing that pops into my mind is a 4v4 infantry only map with two control points.

          ...Aren't there already a bunch of online FPS that do small stuff? Why would people buy a BF game if they want small servers with no vehicles and only 4 people per team? :hmm:

            Variation? DICE doesn't want people to play other games, duh.

              It's one game mode, don't like it, don't play it. I know I won't play it that much, but it could definitely be fun for an all friends game or lan.

                LOL, well I guess I can't really argue with that.

                That's what they kept saying about infantry only in BF2, and look what we have now; egregious amounts of 24/7 IO Karkand and Jalalabad servers. I guess nobody really wants the classic big-map massive-battle type BF games anymore since everyone gravitates towards smaller maps and/or infantry only games. I keep trying to tell myself that the stat tracking which was introduced in BF2 had nothing to do with that, but the cynic in me keeps telling me otherwise.
