OH SHIT! just released 5 hours ago!

EA and DICE kinda sorta announced Battlefield 4 back in July when they were shilling for Medal of Honor Warfighter. Preorder Warfighter, get access to the BF4 beta, the deal went. Seven months later, it appears we're finally about to learn more about the next installment in the shooter franchise, because EA and DICE are now showing off Battlefield 4 behind closed doors and an official reveal appears imminent.

Roughly 10 minutes later, EA followed up with a tweet of its own on the official EA Origin feed:

The all-seeing eyes at NeoGaf direct us to the official GameStop Twitter feed where this was posted last night:


Now, all signs point to an official Battlefield 4 reveal today at Sony's 6pm EST press conference in New York, where the PlayStation 4 will almost certainly be announced. We'll keep you posted, but for now, what would you like to see in the next Battlefield?

Funny ! Last night I was on BFBC2 and noticed I had him as a friend.
Of course that had to be before he started stalking all of us.

Screw that. That is what I play Crysis for ! Like MM I would like to see
a version like Homefront where we are fighting on US soil. They
could have a Map like Damavand Peak , but use Mt. Rushmore
and GW's head could be the Helo pad

When it comes, I will get it. For now I keep playing BF3.

Way to eat P90 today dude. Too bad you showed up so late; I was kicking ass. And you will have to do better than flipping a few bits in your name to stay on my friends list. Sorry, you will just have to stalk me manually.

“For EA’s creative teams, this transition comes as no surprise. We’ve been investing and innovating on new technology for months. Console partners who have seen our early work agree, EA’s next-gen software is nothing short of astonishing.

“At a GameStop company meeting earlier this week, we gave 500 store managers a sneak peak at Battlefield 4. The game received a huge ovation and thousands of fans reacted to a single enthusiastic Tweet by GameStop’s CEO.”

With next gen consoles, lets hope PC community doesn't get completed shafted.

This Examiner page seems to have captured every tangentally related story.

With the current prices of GPU's/CPU's and pretty much any computer part, they will get shafted and rightly so. Plus playing on consoles is easy and companies monopolize on convenience. That's how they make money. All the money is in PS's and Xbox's for a reason. A game developer will only use a computer to create the game now. Not play it on one.

bf-games.net - Battlefield 4: First artwork shows Playermodel

From = Punkbuster =, 3/15/2013

For today's Friday, we had expected a product page and artworks, in the end it remains for the time being, however, a picture and a confirmation. Various gaming sites like IGN and Kotaku have during the evening, the idea of Battlefield 4 confirmed. The BF3 successor is officially 26th March presented. Parallel to confirm a first picture was released showing one of the new player models. We also had access to another collage that shows said player model with vehicles. Our impressions and brief analysis you read in the summary.

Player Model: Glock and MK14 EBR (?)
The published artwork reminiscent of the first wallpaper for Battlefield 3 .. Surrounded by office towers this time a soldier in the foreground. Unlike its predecessor, this is not shown in a casual pose, but is fully operational. In his hand he holds a Glock with Taclight, he has strapped to a gun that at first glance like a Mk 14 EBR looks with silencer and bipod. Also noticeable is the lack of combat helmet, making the face of the player models come nicely. Compared to Battlefield 3 there has been significant progress again. As can be seen clearly in the picture is, the face is due to the tension in wrinkles. BATLLEFIELD 4 WE DISCUSSED IN FORUM

Vehicles: LAV, Abrams, Jet
Little surprises brings the presentation of the vehicles. Is flanked by two of the fighters sprinting LAV-25 with M242 Bushmaster cannon and of an Abrams battle tank in the background. The right of the player model also still a U.S. jet is shown to be identified due to the overlap with the logo hardly exact. The illustrated arsenal of vehicles corresponds to the inventory in Battlefield 3, and interestingly enough, exactly the extent, were presented on the first wallpaper for the predecessor. Accordingly, we are excited to vehicles and aircraft of the other side.

Picture shows Shanghai: Scenario in the Far East
Further analysis of high-resolution graphics bring to light more details, suggesting the scenario. In addition to the player model can be found on the picture for several clips in the style of heads-up displays that show other scenes. From left to right are an explosion in a large city, a scene with a soldier, and water, the skyline of the city of Shanghai (to recognize the TV tower), a fighter jet, an Asian woman, two trucks traveling at full speed and a scene on a mountain which shows a soldier on skis and a cable car or ski lift. The scenario in the Far East is in our view also confirmed without Factsheet over.

I'd much rather see cinematic bullshit gone, jumping, knifing, and the rest of it. Bring back the BC2 knifing, with maybe some ice skating tweaks and call it a day, was much better than this crap.
