The guys over at CrunchGear (http://www.crunchgear.com/) have posted up some more information taken from the GFW article on Battlefield Heroes (http://www.battlefield-heroes.com/). They have also posted up two scans from it. Please do not post up the full article through scans, they will be removed. Enjoy this little preview of the article however. Take a look:
I just got the issue of Games for Windows in the mail with Battlefield Heroes on the cover. In it is a long feature explaining the ins and outs of the game. It sounds pretty great, very easy to pick up and play for the person who doesn’t have dozens of hours a week to devote to a video game. That should be anyone over the age of 16. Some neat things I noticed:
• The game will have classes. You’ll have an overall-ok Soldier, not too strong, not too fast, sorta in right in the middle. There’s the Commando, who sneaks around and snipes and can sorta disappear, but has less hit points (like a Rogue in WoW). Lastly, there’s the Commando, who’s a tank. Lots of armor, lots of firepower but slow-moving.
• You can buy certain amenities. The example given was a power-up that helps you speed up your leveling; you’ll never be able to buy a giant bazooka.
• Maps are smaller than your typical FPS. That’s done to reduce time between going from your re-spawn point to a firefight.
