Edit: Turns out its console only. What a waste of time. Kotaku's fault for not mentioning this and getting our hopes up

http://kotaku.com/5144971/snow-day-spoi … ouncements

Looks like the Snow in the UK postponed an announcement of a 'new DICE title'. I don't think i'm the only one that sees the words 'Battlefield 3' in their mind when they read that.

I wonder when they'll reschedule the event. Soon PLZ EA!

BF3

Spoiler (highlight to read):
If its a Bad Company sequel i'll cry :'(

I beat you.

It MIGHT be BF3...I doubt they'd announce Bad Company's sequel so shortly after it's June release.

What like BF2142 was a buggy crashing cash-in? Like BF2 was a buggy crashing cash-in?

Buggy yes. But they've never been cash ins. BF2 was revolutionary, and added incredible amounts of new gameplay mechanics and features. BF2142 improved on BF2's balance, gameplay, and teamplay by leaps and bounds. Not only that but it was far more polished than BF2. And completely different.

The only cash in was Vietnam (<-yuck). I eagerly await a BF3.

They really should make BF3 a remake of BF2 with new maps graphics and everything.

WTF

http://www.vg247.com/2009/02/02/snow-ca … ing-in-uk/

“No mention of either Battlefield or Army of Two,” an EA rep said this afternoon.

“The console-only DICE project is yet to be announced.”

Infinity Ward =/= Treyarch

It's just DICE working on the Battlefield games. It's a much different story for the CoD series.

I hope BF3 is going to be BF2 with improved network code, physics and graphics. And without claymores. Nothing else needs to be different.

I wouldn't be happy with that. The aircraft, vehicles and classes all need serious balancing.

I never play any maps with jets or bombers simply because its no fun for everyone on the ground (ie 60/64 people on a server). Its just die die die with no warning and literally no defense.
Tanks and APC's are also extremely difficult to destroy when they're in groups. In general all the vehicles are vastly superior to being on foot. This causes many many problems.
Then there's the classes. Assault is pretty much redundant due to Medic. Spec Ops is pretty much useless. And don't even get me started on bunnyhopping and nade spamming. And don't even get me started on IO mode >.<.

2142 was a huge step in the right direction, despite what many people think of it. Vehicles and Aircraft are actually balanced with each other, and with people on foot. Classes are all useful. Etc.

If BF3 was like BF2 but with lessons learned from 2142's successes, then i'd be happy with that. But not as it currently is. I just get frustrated whenever I try and play it, unlike 2142 which is still a lot of fun.

You say you hate bunnyhopping and IO so it's obvious we don't like the same things in this game

If they made BF3 the same as BF2, with a spiced up engine, better unlock/point system (Ranks with points are fine... unlocks shouldn't be "play for 500000 hours, get 2 guns" - achievement style is much better), and a little bit better vehicle balancing (add in a few too ), I'd probably never play another game ever.

ed: Did I mention improved hitreg? That's probably understood with spiced up engine, but jesus that's what killed BF2 for me.

Bunnyhopping infuriates me because it messes up the hitboxes making the person almost impossible to hit.
