Battlefield 4 reveal due "in about 90 days"

I just hope the SP Campaign isn't crappy full of QTEs, Also the Destruction was very scripted, And more players.

Every year?

BF3 came out in 2011.

MoH was done by Danger Close. EA works with more than one studio. Oh btw, you should check out the history of BF game launches. There has been a game or an expansion nearly every year since 2002.

Also, as I edited to my post after you responded I'll say it again...

.A team of 230-250 can pump out a full game in 1 year no problem, as long as the ground work and thinking has been done first. Typical big-buget game development time is about 2 years. One for pre-production with a small team and the leaders of the game, and then full production which involves 200+. This way that 200+ can move from project to project easily. You don't have to worry about laying off people inbetween games, you can just keep having people work on different games and pump out content for those. 

While they were doing pre-production for BF3, the DICE team was working on a Need for Speed project and Medal of Honor 2010's multiplayer.

They have a seperate team at DICE that does engine work. That team only works on the Frosbite 2.0 engine. Unlike for BF3, BF4 will have an advantage of a finished engine and a lot more mature of an engine. 

So settle down.

[QUOTE="PCgameruk"] We should be well above that. BF3 should of been 128 this gen at least.DarkLink77

Milking at its finest.

The engine used in BF3 is brand new and very demanding, also BF is a multiplayer game... What substantial improvement could 4 have that couldn't be added to 3 through a map pack?

I wonder which poorly-fitting rap/hip-hop/wubstep song they'll use for the TV commercial.

Wonder how bad the SP will be this time. Hopefully they do more co-op missions though. That's one thing I actually wanted DLC for in BF3.

Battlefield games used to be such an event when they came out. When 2 came out everyone went crazy over it. Now each new installment is just like any other game coming out

Guess that means next gen is right around the corner and that's right the time of GDC.

Well Battlefield: Bad Company 2 and Battlefield 3 (to a slightly lesser extent) are, in my opinion, the greatest multiplayer shooters ever made, so I could not be more stoked for this. I know it's popular to hate good and popular things, but I quite frankly, dgaf. Battlefield is the epitome of competitive multiplayer in my eyes.

unless its futuristic (like BF 2042) i don't care. Never thought i'd say this to a BF game but im pretty much tired as fk of modern theme. Cannot stand it anymore no matter how of a quality the game is.silversix_

If they can cut the SP campaign out entirely, and would drop the price $10 whilst giving them a lot less to stress about, that would be totally fine. Preferable even.

lol, who freakin cares about the single player in these games? I'd rather they make them online only and focus entirely on the multiplayer. 

You know how people say "I wish they wouldn't include a half-baked multiplayer mode and put all of their efforts into making a great single player experience"? Well that can work both ways for certain games. Battlefield doesn't  need  singleplayer. Frankly I think it's a waste in this case.

BF3 was a disgrace on consoles, hopefully they learn from their mistakes and don't go 100% graphics at the expense of gameplayfueled-system

It was a disgrace everywhere.

This means EA will be able to announce the PS4 version since Sony is revealing the PS4 in a matter of weeks.

Battlenet was upsetting, especiallly not being able to change game settings until actually playing.

The servers were a joke, with latency issues primarily due to not being able to set a ping limit on who could join.  Very few matches I played on PC didn't have players with 200+ ms pings.

The consoles had better search options, with regions within regions able to be set.  The PC was far more limited in that regard.

I also just feel the Frostbite engine is just not very good.  It just plays buggy, especially clipping and hit reg.

[QUOTE="MercenaryMafia"]I would rather have Bad Company 3 now and save Battlefield 4 for next-gen consoles, but hey its EA after all.Wasdie

Rumors are that BF4 will be on both of the next gen consoles. 64 players at 60fps as well.

In which case it at this point sounds like a spruced up BF3 with some more stuff taken from BF2.

After the disappointment that was BF3 I am not excited. As long as they continue to develop BF games for consoles they will continue to suffer.

Bring back Commander Mode. Second make squads better to organize. Third use a frontline mode that requires the whole team to push forward and capture points you need at least six people near them to caputure the flag.

I hope they get rid of that ugly blue/gray filter they put over the visuals, I want some color in the game.

It'll have pretty graphics and physics. I'm interested to see those, but there's no chance I'll actually buy the game. I'm sick of modern day shooters.

Bad Company 1 and 2 are two of my favourite shooters this gen! Unfortunatly 360 and PS3 couldn't handle Battlefield 3 the way it should be played (64 players, HD, good framerate, etc).

Now, the next gen consoles version of Battlefield 4 seem to be everything BF3 should have been. Can't f*** wait!
