Time to hype Battlefield 4.
Though EA announced that it had no plans to put the Battlefield series on a yearly release cycle and pit it in direct competition against Activision's Call of Duty, it's already unveiled a Battlefield 4 teaser page via the official Battlefield website. There's no harm in a little bit of really, really early pre-release hype.
For now, the Battlefield 4 page is empty beyond an interactive image that features a rain soaked window. Users can "wipe away" the rain to reveal a tank in the background.
The page also encourages users to sign up to unlock Battlefield 4 art. "The more fans who log in," reads the page, "the more we'll reveal."
The site also promises that a first look into gameplay will come on March 27th, smack in the middle of GDC. While the gameplay will likely be standard FPS mechanics—but who knows, maybe we'll be surprised—and won't be blowing anybody's mind, it'll also be a glimpse into just how good Battlefield will look for next-gen.
Awfully nice for someone calling you a retard. Anywho, I would prefer that the next BF3 bring back the integrated VOIP and game lobby. Despite delivering solid team-based gameplay, the whole experience suffered from the lack of squad and team-based voice coms, and having to launch via browser, which was an intensely frustrating experience. I had constant voice chat problems, and the group of people I played with eventually gave up and switched to TS. Switching servers was also needlessly difficult, and having to launch the actual game executable every time was poor design.
Bringing those two features back to the franchise would be a great way to get my money.
