Battlefield dev doesn't want 500+ devs

Activision puts 500 developers to work across seven studios to ensure Call of Duty remains the biggest brand around. But challenger EA DICE, with Battlefield 3, doesn't. Nor does general manager Karl Magnus Troedsson believe he has to in order to compete at the very highest level.

Well they sure do prove it.

With one game (BF3) they surpassed about 5 COD games that came out this generation. The last one being MW3 because you don't need to play it in order to see what it already is.

Anyone see that multiplayer gameplay footage? Had huge maps with tanks, vehicles, these lil army robot things, dog fights, all at the same while fighting.

It reminded me of Warkhawk...and that's a good thing.

BF2: Huge maps with tanks, veichles, jets & great graphics for it's time.

BF3: Huge maps with tanks, veichles, jets & great graphics for it's time with rip-off features.

I don't understand why there has to be so incredibly many BF fanboys roaming around just spewing shit out. Are you honestly that mad that MW2 sold better than BF:BC2 and that MW3 will sell more than BF3 that you need to go apeshit and slaugther Call of Duty on each given opportunity?

BF Community = Shitty.

electricshadow5385d ago

To call the entire BF community s*itty is kind of ignorant, not all BF fans are like that. I prefer BF to CoD, but I'm not one to hate. CoD has it's place in the video game world. It's an accessible shooter that is fun with friends.

Everyone knows that MW3 will outsell BF3, anyone saying the otherwise is just a fanboy in denial. BF3 looks to be a better made game though, IMO.

I plan on getting BF3 for the PC and renting MW3 for my 360 as the multi-player doesn't look impressive to me, but I absolutely love the single player of CoD. What a random person says on the internet shouldn't bother you.

COD 2
COD 3
COD MW
COD MW2
COD WAW
COD BO
COD MW3

Best one was COD MW
COD = Shitty

And no I haven't played any of the Battlefield games.

Edit: 500 people working one franchise and they can't upgrade the engine is BS.

DigitalxPiracy5385d ago

Please explain "rip-off features."

bumnut5385d ago

I guess you only need 500+ devs if you plan to release a game every year.

Hicken5385d ago

A game every year that's hardly different from the ones before it.

Spenok5385d ago

Damn, that's crazy. 500+ people across 7 dev studios and the game still looks like MW1 looked like. I see why people like the game, its easy to jump in at any time, easy to master, and there are MILLIONS of people who play it, so finding a game is never hard.

However with that said BF3 just looks so much better to me, as I enjoyed BFBC2 so much more then any CoD

When logic meets EA it generates anti-matter ..... so try not to apply it in any meaningful way. Entropy is what matters in there !!

badz149100d ago

cue the apologist saying that these are mostly just contractors hired for this specific project bla bla bla

TTK for BF employees needs adjusting

A Day After Launch, Battlefield 6 Beta Already Has Cheaters, but DICE Quickly Cracks Down With a Ban

DICE is quickly banning cheaters in the Battlefield 6 beta, with a developer confirming that they are aware of the hacks.

raWfodog313d ago

They need to add an option for crossplay with other console players only. Otherwise I’ll definitely deactivating crossplay altogether. These cheaters on PC are already ruining this game and it’s still a few months from general release.

P_Bomb313d ago (Edited 313d ago )

What’s the appeal in cheating @ multiplayer? Deep down, you must know you suck lol. Yay?

jjb1981313d ago

I never understood that. I remember a guy that commented on a YT video I saw had said that he uses Cronus because he works a lot and doesn't have time to sweat. Lol, I was like "wtf?".

PRIMORDUS308d ago

Developers should find a way that if they detect your cheating in a game, have it so none of your shots register against other players, you can't kill anyone. Bascially, you would be useless in that game LOL.

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

XiNatsuDragnel526d ago

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

anast526d ago

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

Johnh5223526d ago (Edited 526d ago )

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