Battlefield 4 developer DICE has high hopes for the game's showing at Gamescom later this month, according to producer Daniel Matros.

No Caption Provided

"This will be one hell of a show #gamescom #bf4," Matros tweeted today.

It is not clear what DICE will show of Battlefield 4 during the event.

In addition to Battlefield 4, DICE owner Electronic Arts will show off Titanfall, FIFA 14, The Sims 4, and Need for Speed: Rivals during Gamescom.

Gamescom takes place August 21-25 in Cologne, Germany. GameSpot will be on-hand at the event all week long.

why can't people realize that NOT buying these repeat, generic, cash-grab games would make their gaming life better?

@udubdawgz Funny because the "generic fps bullshit" argument came when MW3 was out.

Also did you said the same thing when Battlefield 2 came out for PC?

it's sad for me to read that you think that way. making a stand and doing what's right is much more important than buying a game.

if fallout 4 or tes 6 or the next half-life or whatever are not up to the quality i DEMAND, then, i'll simply wait and buy at an appropriate price.

no big for me, but, HUGE for them.

@Evdne971 I own the alpha on my account, now, they fixed everything, they listened to the community and balanced the game. They did change a lot, just not to the casual player.

@Evdne971 BF is a competitive game for competitive gamers you won't know how different it will be until you play the MP component of the game, if you never played a competitive game before you will never understand this, this is a multiplayer game, the same happens with any competitive game out there, for example if capcom announces SFV the primary concern between people will be how balanced the game will end, innovation means nothing if the people in charge can't make it right.

@Evdne971 Don't even think it takes that long to become dull with the building. Heck you could just watch the video over and over again and by the time it comes out it would be nothing special. I hope that it is for all buildings and not just selected ones. Titanfall yea I like to try that.

Yeah it's different.

But DICE tries to make it their selling point to why you should buy, look, or have everyone's attention.

What's gonna happen when you've knocked down that building for the 1000007372892 time? It'll get old

Titan Fall has very unique ideas, now I'm not comparing, just saying that they, along with Destiny, they don't use little features as to why you should consider to buy the game, because they have their creative and new ideas... And that my friend will sell itself without heavy advertisement.

Yes I'll agree, I shouldn't conclude it to be a bad game.

I've mentioned I'll wait to be proved wrong at games con.

And the tower was actually in Multiplayer.

The radio tower falls in one of the maps.

@Evdne971 yes there was a towerfall in bf3 but that was in the story so its a bit different when in mp you can bring down a tower,but you havent even seen the full thing so you cant really say that the gameplay is the same that was just alittle bit of the gameplay not the full thing

Did. I even mention COD? I've never own a COD game.

Quick to judge.

BF3 had a tower fall.

And people want to flip out over a building and call that a good game based on a building falling?

The game play is exact SAME THING, there is no denying that.

They claim to have unique features that have been in games over 4 years old.

(Example) they bragged about pointing on where your troop should shoot...THAT SO CALLED "feature" was used in BlackSite Area 51

They did a great job overhauling their game from BC to BF3. You can see a big difference.

Most game sequels have major noticeable difference compared to their last games.

@ddoggbritt16 @Enundr @zerooo0 @udubdawgz they could have done ALOT better , look at how much it degraded from BC2 to BF3 (yes im aware of the differences in titles , still shouldnt have gone that bad showing what they were capable of in BC2) , there were so few destructible buildings , snipers for some reason were nerfed to bejubus and felt like BB guns and more useful using them as things to whack ppl in the back of the head with instead.

@ddoggbritt16 @zerooo0 @udubdawgz not EVERY way , but it does look like its improved from that abomination that was BF3 , hopefully snipers actually FEEL like snipers again and not scout rifles / BB guns.

I agree. It looks and still feel like BF3. I am not interested in wasting my $60.00 for current gen titles bragging about being next gen titles which they are not if they be made for Xbox 360 or XB1. Pass!

That was campaign. I actually enjoy the story.

It's cool that there are more players.

If you look at both games, there isn't much of difference, and it came out pretty quick.

I might see something at GC that'll prove me wrong though!

The #1 thing missing from BF3 was something they showed early in the game's single-player campaign - destructible highrises. They showed a tall building coming down after an earthquake.... and that was the last time you saw an entire tall building coming down in the entire game.

If we can bring down skyscrapers and other really tall buildings in multiplayer maps, well...that would ROCK.

No more hiding inside a building in spots you know will never be destroyed. Even though some walls/windows could be blown away, the entire building itself would never topple down. I hope this changes in BF4.

Imagine the kill bonus for toppling a building full of snipers!

Ah, looks like Gamescom is gonna be E3 #2 which is an ultimate win for us Gamers across Sony, MS & 3rd party developers.(No idea if Nintendo is gonna be at Gamescom or not, does anyone know?)

Can't wait for Gamescom & can't wait to see some more BF4 goodness. Maybe some XB1 gameplay would be nice.

I'm actually looking forward to Gamescom, especially with two new consoles right around the corner.
