GameReplays (http://www.gamereplays.org/) has posted up a new article that analyzes the top five "questions" surrounding all the talk about Battlefield 3 lately. Take a look:

In this article we will analyze five very delicate questions: what stage of development is Battlefield 3 currently in, what circumstances surround its release, and how it turn out in the end?

The Developer
More then two years ago, Electronic Arts bought out DICE (Digital Illusions CE), the developers of Battlefield series. Even still, Battlefield 2 is a popular first person shooter game. Yes, the sequel-of-sorts, Battlefield 2142, was not affably met by fans and simple gamers, but has enough players and servers to remain active.

Now, members of EA DICE are working on Mirror’s Edge (PC, PS3, Xbox 360), which was announced this last summer and will be shipping your way to the shelves this year. So while they're busy, it's not on the BF project. However…

When the last patch for BF2142 was released not long ago, the Stats issue was unfortunately dropped. Also, Digital Illusions are still searching for a Community Managersfor DICE Live and a "yet undisclosed project." A thorough check of the position's listed responsibilities and specifications will reveal interesting tips which point to a Battlefield-related game.

- Updating the battlefield.com portal
- Q&A for clans / modding groups / media / PR
- Knowledge of game editors such as Battlefield, Source, or Unreal

Hmm December is fine... as long as its good and ready.


Still hoping they follow the stat coding like IW did with COD4..so anyone could run a Dedicated "Ranked" server.. thats my main concern.

Otherwise I'm wanting them to go all out in Graphics and force upgrades to play it. Time to change and live in the future and not 1999 anymore. :yay:

I really like the futuristic setting of 2142 and it will almost feel like going backwards if BF3 is set in contemporary times. I would really like to see 2142 upgraded but seems I'm one of the few on that score. A year is a long time to wait as well, might even have to reinstall 2142 for a few rounds in the meantime.

Tried Crysis on my mid range rig and got a complete slideshow. Unless you set everything on med but if you do there's not a lot of point playing it.

When BF3 arrives I think it will be time for a major PC overhaul.

I don't understand why folks are negative about this. I can wait for the next Battlefield because I want it done right.

I sure wish folks would stop complaining about BF:H. You keep second guessing the developers as if they are stupid or something. That's one thing that DICE is not. Sure, they've had to bend to pressure before, but that is just a fact of doing business.

BF:H is meant to meet the needs of the Asian market and is valuable, practical experience which will be key in developing Battlefield: Online ... DICE's long term goal. And, it's FREE...

Stop thinking that you are paying developer salaries, you're not. Give DICE a chance to make the next great installment in the BF series :yay:!

And what about the people who aren't living in your rich wealthy delusions of grandeur?

See but IW can actually make a beautiful game, that looks amazing, and runs fluid online, on a mid range system.

Yet DICE make a "butter faced" 2142, that looks "meh", and runs like an 80 year old on Ketamine online, on a high end system?

Someone got into the crack snacks......and it wasnt IW!:evil:
