    Re: Battlefield 3 Beta Added to Medal of Honor Limited Edition

    Epic fail. This at least better be a PC port. Why would you work on the version that has more limitations and THEN porting it rather than working on the version with less limitations, then stripping it down to port over to console?

      It's cheaper to make things for the lowest common denominator.

        Im starting to think that if that twitter post was correct, then this must be EA's doing, which doesnt take any fault off of dice because that means they WILL have to make a dumbed down version, and to save time they will probably give that same version to all platforms. Though I reckon giving this to the current gen consoles is stupid, wait till the next.

          I'm inclined to agree with this. DICE could have released BFBC2 for PC in a much worse shape and gotten away with it. They did spend a lot of time on it and if there's one thing they haven't done, it's abandoning the PC platform (even if BC2 obviously could have been even better)

          BFBC was released as a pure console title. BFBC2 wasn't in production for more than 1 - 1 ½ years with BFBC as the base. Turning a console only shooter into a full fledged PC shooter isn't gonna work in that time. With that in mind, they still did a very good job with the PC version of BC2.

          BF3 is based on a new version of the engine and has been under development for a very long time. If they're determined to make the PC version the best they can, they have a lot more time and abilities to do that now.

          I see no reason to be too pessimistic. Chill out and wait for more info.

            This makes is sound interesting.

            BC2 really had no choice but to be a console port since it started out on consoles, but this is Battlefield 3, and that alone makes me hopeful.

              aww man! I freaking hate consoles. Quality and orginality of the games is going downhill cause of them! When i was a teen i was a console kiddy. Used to get the video game mags and see the awesome PC games and dream of the day i could afford a PC and play the really awesome games. Actually gave me something to look forward to and work for.

              Now that im here we are going backwards! WTF!

              DICE needs to make two BF games if they want to be on console. You dont spend the money on a gaming PC, then you get the stripped down version of the game! You get what ya pay for!

                they tried to make a special PC version for 1943.... look what happened to it, it is over a year late and now rumors of it being canceled.

                  I think a lot of people missed this little part btw:

                  If you own Medal of Honor Limited Edition you will receive an invitation to the Battlefield 3 beta within 12-months following the release of Medal of Honor.

                    Wonder how they're going to fare juggling support for 3 games at once, unless they just drop BC2 like they've pretty much done for 2142.

                      they will just abandon whatever game that seems expendable. probably whatever is oldest and has the least amount of people playing will be the first victim.

                          As much as this sucks, we all have to remember that Big-time game developers and publishers dont respect loyalty, or who gave them that opportunity. All they respect is whoever is giving them the most money, and in EA's eyes (and possibly DICE's) Console is where the money is at, while BC2 may or may not have had a stronger customer base on the PC, there is still the idea of breaking into the console market.

                          No matter how much we scream "YOU CANT DO THIS! WE MADE YOU!" as if we have a broken keyboard, Dice isnt going to give us what they used to. we just have to be patient, and hopefully some good news may come, for now, we just have to band together as a community and appreciate the small-time developers who actually care about PC gaming while we can before they are swept up by the big 3 w@nkers (EA, Activision, Ubisuck)

                                I wish there was an FPS for hardcore gamers, instead of these easy, simple, arcade-style games like BC2.

                                It's not really news, that EA sucks. I'm having problems with my Sims 3 validation code, and I'm still waiting for some help after several months.
