It'd be funny if it was broken once, it never spawned on that server ever again, and became a thing of legend...Mailman would hunt every one down, just to be called the Gnome killer.

Announcing our 10 ”Pitch your map concept” winners

Quote:
Hi Battlefield fans!

I’m Niklas Fegraeus, one of the Lead Designers here at DICE, working on the Battlefield series. I was asked to be the judge and jury for the Premium exclusive “Pitch your map concept” competition where you guys got to submit your very own ideas for a Battlefield map! I immediately accepted and have since had the pleasure to look through hundreds of amazing designs from all of you Premium members out there.

First of all, let me explain what I’ve been looking for when reading your designs. I’ve looked at these three, important criteria:

Gameplay ideas
This is the most important aspect of design. You need to have fresh and cool ideas that will allow other people to have fun! Without a good idea to start with, no great design can happen.

Quality of presentation
In order to convince other people your idea is great, you must present your work structured and clear, so that everyone understands and don’t get confused by messy information. After all, it doesn’t matter how great your idea is if no one else is able to understand it.

Visual identity
Beautiful things are appealing, and this is no less true for design ideas. If you present things that are of high visual quality and beautiful to look at, the greater the chances are that people will like what you make.

Finally, before I announce the winners, let me give an honorable mention and big thanks to ALL of you. It’s been really amazing to see your ideas and the creative work you’ve put into your submissions. I’ve seen all kinds of awesome stuff, from massive oil rigs to underwater theme parks. From time traveling battles to heartfelt tales from real soldiers fighting real wars. Even Chinese vampires! Again, thanks to all of you. And now, on to the winners (in alphabetical order)!
You can view all the entries at the link up top.

Hearing that disappoints me some. But since I've started doing weapon reviews. I just realize there's already too many weapons to make each have it's own niche. So some just end being in the back of the pack worse than some other guns at everything. Adding more weapons will just make it worse, so in that respect, I don't see it as a bad thing.

Seems the guy writing the article thinks the same as well, just don't need more weapons. But I agree, don't promise shit then go back on it. That will never make people happy. If they had just said "these dlc's won't be getting weapons as balancing all of them to make them good at something as is, is enough of a job". I think people would get it.

To be fair, you don't really use a whole lot of guns, so you shouldn't be.

They should. If I can get a free Obamaphone, then I should get a couple of lousy virtual guns for my money.

There will be backlash. DICE will end up doing something. I bet the EA forums explode with BS about how someones civil rights were violated and they deserve 40 acers and a mule.

You advertized, you gotta come through on it, that's a fact. I'm sure they passed it by the legal team first, or someone is simply talking shit about stuff they shouldn't be...


But, I don't care, really. I got other stuff to do.

EA/Dice need to make a really bad console that plays one game and sell it for a lot of money to just you.

I actually only care that something that was essentially promised is now just being scrapped like this. On principle...overall this is not a huge deal though. There are a shitload of weapons already.

Exactly, Just makes you wonder how long the actual system that runs the game will be supported by EA. BFBC2 still seems to run pretty well though, and MOH.
