IGN has a preview up. Three classes? Third-person view? Microtransactions that enable 2x experience points? What the fuck, DICE?

sounds good to me

sitting on the wing of a plane with a rocket launcher, whooooohoooooooo

How does that sound good to you? Battlefield: Bad Company sounds like Battlefield. And I've purchased all iterations of Battlefield. Including the expansions.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #3 on:** February 29, 2008, 02:29:38 PM »

you don't have to purchase this one, because it's priced at free-fifty

maybe you'll be able to play it on your pc without downgrading to xp, lol

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #4 on:** February 29, 2008, 02:30:29 PM »

Wait, paying for experience boosts?

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #5 on:** February 29, 2008, 02:32:39 PM »

you don't HAVE to pay for anything, you can play it as is

read the gfw article

it looks like loads of fun, and i don't intend to spend one dime on it

goddamn, you people complain about everything

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #6 on:** February 29, 2008, 02:32:53 PM »

Yeah, this is the worst idea since BATTLEFIELD: VIETNAM.

"THIS FREE GAME IS NOT TO MY LIKING!"

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #8 on:** February 29, 2008, 02:37:32 PM »

well, no shit, but passing final judgement on it based on a few paragraphs in an ign article is pretty reactionary

Smooth Groove · « **Reply #9 on:** February 29, 2008, 02:41:59 PM »

Only the pay for XP sounds really wack. I'm not worried about having only 3 classes or 3rd person view. EA will keep adding stuff if the game is a huge success.

Complaining about free games is completely legitimate... those resources could have been used to work on an actual Battlefield game, or something else

They are only wasting our time and theirs

Most Korean games have this. EA stole a page out of mostly every Korean MMO ever. Hell, most Korean mmos have 3 fucking classes too.

Korean MMO Battlefield $:-\$

I was going to say, that sounds just like Maple Story. I don't know how much money my friend spent on 2X XP boosts. That game's free too, until you get suckered into playing it and spending hundreds of dollars to keep up with everybody else.

Three classes sound shitty, even for a free game. But it's still FREE, and I'll check it out regardless

They'll add more stuff if the game's a hit. It makes no sense to put a lot of resources into such a risky project.

Good point. I'm definitely looking forward to it. I wonder if there will be a Wii port....

1. No one here has played it

2. I'll at least give it an hour of my time

3. If I like it, I'll keep playing

4. Bonus = I won't have to listen to any of you whining and bitching while I play, because evidently typing out complaints about games you haven't played is a much more worthwhile usage of your time than, you know, actually trying out the game for a few minutes to decide if you like it

sittin on a plane wing blowin shit up wooooooooohhhooooooooooooooo you can all eat 15 bowls of dicks

Did your mom make this game

brawndolicious · « **Reply #20 on:** February 29, 2008, 06:31:26 PM »

don't xp points just unlock alternate weapons that do basically the same thing as the old weapon?

Bad Company, while it looks awesome, doesn't have a lot to do with battlefield. I wonder when they'll finally announce BF3.
