|  | | DICE Announces Battlefield 1943 and Bad Company 2 | 
DICE, an Electronic Arts Inc studio today announced Battlefield: Bad Company 2, the sequel to last year's blockbuster title. In this installment, the Bad Company crew again find themselves in the heart of the action, where they must use every weapon and vehicle at their disposal to survive. The action unfolds with unprecedented intensity, introducing a level of fervor to vehicular warfare never before experienced in a modern warfare action game. To get ready for the assault this winter, players can prepare for action in Battlefield 1943, an all-new multiplayer game available this summer via PlayStation Store, Xbox LIVE Marketplace and on the PC.
In Battlefield: Bad Company 2, the 'B' company fight their way through snowy mountaintops, dense jungles and dusty villages. With a heavy arsenal of deadly weapons and a slew of vehicles to aid them, the crew set off on their mission and they are ready to blow up, shoot down, blast through, wipe out and utterly destroy anything that gets in their way. Total destruction is the name of the game, delivered as only the DICE next generation Frostbite engine can. Either online or offline, enemies will soon learn there is nowhere to hide. Battlefield: Bad Company 2 will be available for the Xbox 360 videogame and entertainment system, the PLAYSTATION 3 computer entertainment system and the PC.
"Bad Company 2 takes everything that players liked in the original and ups the ante - more vehicles, more destruction and more team play," said Karl Magnus Troedsson, Executive Producer Battlefield Franchise, DICE. "Battlefield 1943 is a new take on a blast from the past classic coming to life with brand new technology that we're eager to get into players hands."
Using the same Frostbite engine, Battlefield 1943 takes players back to WWII. The game offers endless hours of 24 player multiplayer action over three classic and tropic locations; Wake Island, Guadalcanal and Iwo Jima. Delivering the award-winning through-the-gun and vehicle warfare online experience DICE is best recognized for, Battlefield 1943 will have players battling in ruthless aerial dog fights and intense trench combat. Players can see the game in action at New York Comic Con (Booth #1441) from February 6th-8th.

ps
news quality on ngo site got better in last months. | | | | I think I'm gonna like BF1943 a lot | | | | Looking good! I still have BF2 installed. By the way, should I get Bad Company for the Xbox? Is it any good? | | | | I heard it's a lot smaller than BF as game field and oriented most on infantry combat and less on vehicles | | | | a max of 24 players on a battlefield game is a joke. | | | | that and only 3 maps? wtf? | | | | It's good that battlefield 1943 is going to be available on the consoles, unlike battlefield heroes which I think is going to be PC only.
I'll get 1943 on the 360 so that I can use mouse and keyboard on my new xim360 device to slay the game controller hordes. WWW.XIM360.COM | | | | i dont think its good, i think there needs to be more pc-only games, alot more, get more people interested in pc games
i was in EB the other day and there was this guy with his son there looking at games, and the son looked at some pc games and said "I dont want any xbox games, I want a computer!" it was music to my ears | | | | Reminds of a debate over whether to get Fallout 3 for the PC or Console... I quipped the single word PC has over console besides graphics... MODS.
Not to thrilled about BF1943, I played BF2 and found it slightly less great as Operation Flashpoint online.
Personally, after years of playing FPS games centered around World War 2, I don't see anything new being implemented, just better graphics.
This is a skip for me. | | | | yea i have to say the moding comunity for fallout 3 is great and still growing, in time youll be able to mod this game out to make it a completly different experience, yet another thing that consoles cannot do.
You know what bugs me though? people crying that pc games have bugs and blah blah blah, i have seen tons of buggy console games that have issues, bad performence and the works, the only difference between the PC and a console is that on the pc there is the possibility of fixing these problems while on the console there isnt. | | | | BC2 for pc, that sounds interesting... so i may be able to hop from BF2 to BC2 *lol* (literally its 3 steps backward *smile*) | | | | Well i'm looking forward to both Bf 2 and Bf 1943 however, one thing i'd wish they'd improve was the artillery boundary lines escpecially if flying a plane in Bf 1943 so I can have a wide range of plane movement without worrying of getting shot out of places unknown. So can someone tell me if they know how they are improving or changing around those artillery lines that'd be great. Thanks! | |
