Is Electronic Arts saying that the Bad Company series and Medal of Honor they published was so bad that it left little to no competition for Call of Duty?
Way to go, not that i disagree - I think those games sucked, but why would a publisher criticise their own developers like this?
MW2 -> Over 20 million units sold
Black Ops -> Over 20 million units sold
Each game sold for incredible amounts of DLC.
Why would they "need to try" and make something original?
Name me a major company that does not work on DLC or Expansion packs before releasing their game, just one.
Every seems to hate Infinity Ward/The MW-franchise for this, but the fact is that every major game developer has teams working on Expansion prep/DLC from the minute they work on the actual game.
Same as with every CoD game CoD4. Nice "news".
Mafia 2 was great. Then they created Jimmy's Whatever, now that was terrible.
I stand corrected on the DirectX 9 part for PS3. I was quite obvious shocked to find out they use something worse than that. I think my point still stands though.
Sure I have, each PC release they have made. Each multiplayer map is taken from the singleplayer, surely - but it is altered so much that you cannot find head or tails.
Take a look at World at War and Battlefield 2, you will see that it's happening there aswell.
With steam, you can play offline singleplayer, offline. The option has been there for several years. There is only "DRM" on multiplayer games because they use Steamworks as a tool to connect you with friends/communities.
What communities/friends does Ubisofts DRM support you with? Nothing. Just unstable servers. I've hardly experienced Steam downtime during the time i've used it, so how much DRM is there actually.
As with any other multiplayer shooter, the singleplayer maps aren't entirely the same as the multiplayer maps.
Is this news?
They have a database of the available CD-Keys for Steam Purchased products. They cannot scan your entire PC or your net activity - They can see the changes made to your .exe files in your Steamapps folder to prevent hacking or modifying your game.
@ECM0NEY: You are clueless.
I'd rather have all correct details on the table instead of hype and lies from DICE.
*Semi-Destruction* Buildings will only take partial damage. After one hundred playthroughs, you can level the battlefield to the ground.
*Long Single-Player campaign* We rather want 6 hours of awesome instead of bla. 12 hours bla.
*Battlefield 3 won't require Origin* Battlefield 3 will indeed require Origin.
What is the next lie DICE...
Eul was the first person to "create" Defense of the Ancient. He released the RoC(Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos) version of Defense of the Ancient in 2003.
Steve "Guinsoo" Feak took Defense of the Ancients to DotA Allstars after Eul stopped developing it and formed a version with more coding.
Icefrog took over when Guinsoo faded away from the DotA Allstars updating - Creating DotA, not DotA Allstars or Defense of the Ancents, but DotA.
The screenshot you linked has graphics that are suitable for the Source Engine. We can both agree that Call of Duty and the Modern Warfare franchise is no where near the high-end graphics of 2011, but it certainly looks better than CS:GO and I would not recognize one bit of Call of Duty in the pcgames.de screenshot.
Regarding the brightness of the game - There is such an option in your settings.
There isn't a single screenshot where CS:S has higher res te...
I would perhaps see a doctor to get my eyes checked if I were you. Joke aside, no I am actually serious.
CS:GO looks better, alot better. It's much more detailed and the landscape(buildings and terrain) looks way better.
I don't see how it looks more like CoD? A game has to renew itself to sell. If they reskinned CS 1.6 and put a $60 price tag on it, how many would bait do u think when they got CS1.6 fully playable on thousands of deedicated servers a...
You are so bloody ignorant it's amazing.
How can one say that a PS3 game can be as good(glorious) as on PC? It's simply blasphemy and fanboyism at it's most disgusting part.
Sorry to be harsh - but HONESTLY! The PS3 version of Battlefield 3 is no where near as good as the PC version. DICE has not really "pulled" anything off.
The PC version can run on unlimited FPS 1080p with DirectX 11 graphics. The PS3 can run on 30 FP...
"Ken: Reckoning has got the best combat in an RPG and it’s the best pacing of any combat in an RPG -- the best theatre. And what I hope to do is... I always felt that RPGs are kind of slow paced and it’s kind of an artifact of the table-top, to the turn-based level, to the pretty good movement, but not very good combat of modern third-person games.
So what I’m hoping is, that by having good combat -- which is exciting and satisfying -- we will increase the pace of gamepl...
I don't get this article. We are still getting the same content as we did with Call of Duty 4:Modern Warfare and Call of Duty 5: World at War. A single player campaign and a multiplayer. The new content that the studios create is charged for. All of a sudden, charging for extra content is bad. Why is it so? Sure - I don't agree with the $15 price tag on five new maps, but the concept isn't any worse than an Expansion with additional skins, zones or items.
Call of ...
I don't get it. DICE doesn't support competitive gaming - neither does their publisher. There is no point in having competitive Battlefield 3 at MLG.
The gore might be fun for a good 10 minutes or so. Then you wasted $20.00 and forget about it.
It didn't sell 20% of Modern Warfare 2 copies on any platform. It didn't have 10% of the concurrent players on any Platform. It won about 60 awards more than Bad Company 2 and it's reviews are all better than Bad Company 2's.
Yes, it didn't have dedicated servers, console or mod tools - It's still ten times better than any Bad Company game.
