Or don't kill the developer. If EA hadn't murdered Pandemic we might have gotten a Battlefront 3 already.Adam Jensen said:
Yeah, that was my only gripe with BF2, the jedi/ sith characters. On the one hand it was a cool idea but on the other it was badly implemented and effectively did the same thing as the scorestreaks in CoD - made the top players even mroe overpowered. If they do bring it back I hope they make them easier to defeat/ give them a shorter timer, only allow each player to use them once per match, and/ or give them as a boost for the lowest ranking players on the scoreboard.Kalezian said:
EA already murdered KOTOR, they'll murder Battlefront as well, which will be even more impressive because they had to actually dig up a corpse to do it.
Then they'll probably put out Jedi Outcast 2 and it'll be awful.

OT: I just have one wish and am praying for just one thing...
Please no Premium, please no Premium, oh please merciful gods of gaming, let there be no Premium bullshit soiling what I hope and feel rightfully so will be one of the most amazing shooters in a long while
The game with airplanes, tanks, huge insane 64 player chaos, that they then created an infantry only mode for in BF2. Then release the "Strike at Karkand 2" map called "Road to Jaba The Hut," or whatever it was. Wasn't there a close quarters combat DLC for Battlefield 3? And the squad deathmatch mode in bad company 2 that was pretty much infantry only save for the lone apc at the center of the map. DICE used to be sprawling maps, rolling hills, and vehicle combat. Then they were acquired by EA after releasing BF2, and it became more and more infantry, close-quarters, twitch-gameplay, one man army oriented with each iteration.EvilMaggot said:ehhh what..

In DICE i trust.
There will probably be premium, that's almost sure. I mean, you get one of the biggest franchises on Earth and turn it into a videogame by a studio that have been consistently releasing shooters of more-than-average-to-amazing quality andyou get sales.
I just hope the premium is worth it, like being able to play on 64 players maps.

This is, in fact, completely wrong. It was confirmed awhile ago that the main DICE team based in Sweden is making it. All the Los Angeles team is doing is developing potential expansion packs.fix-the-spade said:

Well in that case, your wait is over, cause Jedi Academy has an enjoyable Star Wars themed multiplayer experience alsoFasckira said:
Although Battlefront 2 sure didn't . . .
They still have sprawling maps, rolling hills, and vehicle combat. Did you even play Battlefield 3?tdylan said:
I didn't notice battlefield becoming "more and more infantry." In fact, very few Battlefield 3 servers run infantry only, even fewer than there were in the days of BF2.
Even if a lot of servers did run infantry only, the fact that the option exists doesn't detract from the vehicle servers.
If you don't like infantry combat, feel free to simply not play in those servers.
Only the close quarters DLC was close quarters. Battlefield is still well known for its gigantic maps. There's nothing close quarters about Siege of Shanghai or Paracel Storm, the two maps that were extensively showcased from their upcoming release.
In addition, what is "twitch-gameplay" supposed to be? Are you referring to the fact that you have to react quickly?
That was always the case. Battlefield is a first person shooter series. Good reflexes are key to any shooter game.
I don't see how battlefield became any more "twitch-gameplay," not that it's clear what that phrase is even supposed to mean.
Also, battlefield is as team oriented as ever. You still need someone from every class to function effectively as a team. You still have squads and squad spawning. You still have spotting. What changed, exactly?
