OFFICIAL Battlefield 4 (Discussion)

Hopefully another game pops up with mass combat so they get competition and give us real destruction. Not hype us to death with fancy movies and drop in a few animations in the final product. Battlefield 3 Destruction Trailer (1080p) - YouTub...

Product-reviews.net - Battlefield 4 gameplay already shown to some

It looks like a Battlefield 4 gameplay reveal is just around the corner. We know that the game is going to be released sometime in March 2014, which also means that the next entry in EA’s popular franchise is going to show up on the next-generation of gaming consoles from Sony and Microsoft. While March 2014 is still obviously a year away, it appears that the game is already being shown off behind closed doors to a few lucky individuals.

One of these individuals just happens to be the CEO of GameStop, as J Paul Raines couldn’t contain his excitement by revealing on Twitter to the world that he had just witnessed Battlefield 4 in the flesh, conceding that he was ‘wowed’ by what he saw. His Twitter message was then retweeted by EA, suggesting that the publisher doesn’t mind the word starting to spread about their next game on the way.

That tells us that they already have a build of the game ready to show off at the likes of E3 2013, which takes place in June. Because of the next-gen consoles supposedly due out at the end of 2013, it suggests that the portion of gameplay that the GameStop CEO witnessed, could have been running on next-gen consoles – or on PC of course.

If you picked up a copy of Medal of Honor Warfighter, then don’t forget that your entry to the Battlefield 4 multiplayer beta has already been confirmed. With the game due out in March 2014, you have to assume that the beta will be starting towards the end of 2013, to give enough time for DICE to implement any changes necessary.

On a side note, we wonder if Sony’s upcoming PS4 reveal on Wednesday will also dish out a few potential details on Battlefield 4 ahead of any exclusive agreements. While Microsoft are courting Activision with Xbox related content for Call of Duty, it is the PS3 that has had first dibs on Battlefield 3 content before any other platforms.

What are your thoughts on the fact that some lucky suit and tie execs have already had a glimpse of Battlefield 4? Are you expecting big things from the first Battlefield game on a next gen console? A constant 60fps would be lovely.

A constant 60fps would be lovely.

This made me laugh. I got LOW frames if I hit 60 FPS.

I'd like to buy BF4 on release day, but the way the whole "Premium Edition" thing went down I'm going to wait a little while. I don't feel like spending $60 for a product only to find that same product being $60 will ALL of the expansion content included a couple of months down the road.

Couple of months? It was a year later man. I got almost 300 hours in BF3. I got my monies worth and then some at full price. I think cadaveca has something like 600 hours.

Have you even played BF3? Everything in that trailer is in the game.

He from his previous posts I have read in the BF3 clubhouse, he has done nothing but bash BF3 since it released.

 

[caleb]

Yeah and not much more besides that. Caspian antenna script falling a few second before round ends - may I add they needed to patch that too lol. Only one decent map with it is seine crossing and a few B2K ones perhaps.

I'm with Danni - gonna camp out the release hype until they show their full cards. Premium was just money dragged out of our pockets. Would be nice if they added SDK but I think we can forget that.

I also love the franchise. Criticism is not bashing.

I laugh when I see this "Criticism" and then look at your signature with your K/D and such. Your like a battered wife. You hate your husband but wont leave him.

 

[Wrigleyvillain]

I'm still on the fence too. Not an automatic pre-order this time around.

 

[TheMailMan78]

Screw that. I pre-ordered the pre-order.

 

[Wrigleyvillain]

Well I don't say that based on any saltiness with the franchise or some kind of misguided "principle" rather I just don't know anything about it yet. And it still seems "too soon" though I realize it is nowhere near release.

You didn't like BF3. Dunno why you are even posting here.

i own BF3. i actually installed it and played it without fear of getting a virus. i have a feeling bf4 is going to be full of fail. but hell, gamers will pay any amount of money to EA apparently.

Kinda like with activision and COD

If I do get this game It will be simply to piss off Mailman by running into him, and I do not plan to pay full price. There are tonnes of games that are more fun to me than BF, and cheaper :3

Huh, doesn't seem to be very on topic. Not sure if closing thread or handing out infractions would be the best way to go. Moderating is hard.

Stay on topic.

 

[MxPhenom 216]

I would just close it till the game is actually released.

 

[erocker]

I didn't ask. Stay on topic.

 

[TheMailMan78]

Ive been reading rumors we might even see something tonight with the "PS4" debut. I just hope it isn't a CG movie like Sony loves to do.

As for people going off topic (myself included) PLEASE STOP.

I doubt they will, I would be more in tune to see it come straight from DICE.

I doubt it too but you never know. Even a 3 second clip is gonna cause bonerage.

 

[Mindweaver]

I hope it's future warfare.. I would really like to have BF2143 before BF4.. I miss podding out of the ship.. and the squad leader beacon was epic..
