What was your first Battlefield? Mine was on my friend’s late 90’s super computer in the (maybe) early 2000’s. He had it on a bot match and he changed the m4 to a fully automatic tank cannon powered assault rifle. Helicopters, tanks, entires squads…

braaap

flying in the air.

missed on one of the last dudes on the way to… Whatever.. When I saw a dude and he saw me and wouldn’t yah know it he ducked, while I was ducking too, and survived. Accidental trigger squeaze for the win.

i love Battlefield.

I watched the first trailers for Bad a Company.

This was my favorite concept for a shooter:

Teamwork

Destructive physics

huge 24 player maps (!) with bad mama jama sized conflict zones. Support had the mortar barrage, maybe sniper, it’s really late here. Some other dudes did other stuff and grenade launchers and

like Saving Private Marlow. Battlefield is always truly amazing.  
Now it needs our help.

we all know this “games as a service” will continue as long as it is profitable to companies looking for a quick buck or those that can fit it into their probably huge profit margins for simple graphic models.

personally, I could care less if we’re all crude looking 1990’s Crank Yankers 3D puppets, I want levels. We ALL do. Except the John Wick Skin OMG did you get it, I’m totally kidding.

October 17, 2017  
Visceral Games… Sniffle.. Creators of the MAGNIFICANT Dead Space games 1 & 2, Dante’s Infetno, some other stuff, is now gone. That’s not the disturbing part:  
a little birdie told me that the recent fiasco with Bartlefront 2 rerelease had a high exec visiting EA and saying “You mess up Star Wars one more time, NO MORE ESPN.”

LAYMAN-TERMS: FIFA! AKA The money maker.

No FIFA means, essentially, no HUGE EA. Small EA also means huge fluxes of talented creators who will be forced to work as contractors who get no medical and can be overworked making skins for your kids and my uncle, often being sold to the lowest bidder.

Let me tell you why EA released 3 competing BR games simultaneously: FIFA Priority One Protocol

Let me tell you were the work shifted: Star Wars

Now, I know that we’ve all be waiting for new content on this game funded from all the half off sales there have been in on this game, no doubt, but the truth is still out there on the wall: FIFA is love, FIFA IS LIFE.

Unless Scotty Beams them success, Battlefield will be taking one for the team, as a skeleton crew of (I’m totally pulling numbers out of my tooshy for you) 20 workers TIRELESSLY building more maps, balance new content, add more guns, generate revenue that gives no competitive edge, balance and rebalance, make new maps, leave the gamemodes you like, address community concerns in a timely manner, plus some other stuff and with nothing to show but a paycheck and the gratitude of this forum.

We aren’t ready to lose Battlefield, are we?
