What Battlefield 3 needs to avoid

An opinion piece on what Battlefield 3 should avoid, like "Regenerative health", "Botched classes", and more.

Pandamobile5657d ago

It needs to avoid tracer darts. It's way too easy to take down a chopper with those things.

Ducky5656d ago

It was better in the early days when the only way to take down the chopper was somalian style.
=(

toaster5656d ago

It needs to avoid consolization.

ChineseDemocracy5656d ago

- Mix up the classes/weapons a bit.
- Please remove that greasy mustache from the medic character model.
- More weapon customization.

Wenis5656d ago (Edited 5656d ago )

I think the choppers in BC2 were just not balanced at all. On one hand, choppers could base rape wayy to easily. On the other hand, they could get destroyed by AA way too easily. On the third hand, they were too easy to destroy with tracer darts. On the fourth hand, they were too hard to hit with stand alone rockets. Hope this mess gets fixed to being:

sort of hard to base rape
sort of hard to destroy chopper with an AA
sort of hard to destroy a chopper with rocket
& like you said panda, no more tracers. Maybe bring back GTAMs though.

Play BC2: Vietnam. Somalian style is the only way to do it and it feels 500x better to take one out of the sky without help.

people crying about not being able to play BF3 PC on XP (don't give in DICE, just say UPGRADE)
needs to really avoid GFWL
need to avoid using "opposition forces" instead of Insurgent or Taliban
need to avoid using any PC that was used to make Medal of Honor

As a PC gamer I know Battlefield 3 PC will reign supreme but DICE needs to avoid making a mediocre PS3 version which I'm sure the 360 and ps3 version will be equal cause DICE is a first class developer unlike *cough Craptivision Cough*.

SixZeroFour5656d ago

i think they should keep the tracers, but have it the way it was before the patch made it super fast and accurate

i liked using it where you had to lead the chopper to nail it...i felt a sense of accomplishment whenever i landed a tracer, now its just easy

What BF3 needs is to return to there roots from BF2 on the PS2. That game was seriously epic fun.

Or they should take a risk and come up with something completely different than what we have with COD/BF

Pandamobile5656d ago

Return to the roots from BF2 on the PS2?

Excuse me?

BF2: Modern Combat was an entirely different game than BF2 (BF2:MC Metacritic was like 75, BF2 Metacritic was like 91).

If DICE made BF3 like BF2:MC, the series would go down the shitty pretty quickly.

Wenis5656d ago

Modern Combat was fun though, but I think, like the Bad Company series, it could to without the 'Battlefield' in it's name. But again I had a ton of fun on BF2MC on Ps2, was my second most played game behind Battlefront 2.

Mozilla895656d ago

I'm not sure if you played the game at all but the multi-player was damn good. The game was actually developed in two parts one dev team did the single player but DICE did the multi=player.

Pandamobile5656d ago

I played the hell out of BF2:MC because I saw a video of BF2 on the net, and I bought BF2:MC thinking it was the same game.

It wasn't.

Not even close.

I want some freakin' big ass maps to run across.

Ducky5656d ago

Why run when you can submarine?

Xfanboy5656d ago

no DX9 or console port = done...

Frostbite 2 is primarily developed for DX11. XP & DX9 is _not_ supported, 64-bit OS is recommended. Lots of time to upgrade if you havent!

Battlefield 3 Cut Missions From Campaign Detailed by Former DICE Dev

Battlefield 3's former Lead Designer has revealed that there were two cut missions from the main campaign

XiNatsuDragnel540d ago

I wish someone can get those EA game leaks to see all the cut content ngl

anast540d ago

Get rid of campaigns, move the game to mobile, and try to compete with warzone. They would save time and money.

Johnh5223540d ago (Edited 540d ago )

Bf4 was fun hope the new bf is just as good.

hmmm I think there will be no old BF glory days for EA since they are loyal to their greediness and laziness :D

Knightofelemia1326d ago

You're asking for a miracle with EA that will never happen unless they can exploit the money making schemes behind it.

MadLad1325d ago

We'll see what happens now that Zampella is overlooking the series.
