BF2S Forums Battlefield 3

They need to add some blood!

That purple heart Idea would be hard. it would be hard to kill a ceratin amount of people while ur injured. knowing EA, they would want you at one bar of health, and to kill 30 people at the same time ahaha

but i like the idea of the plane that drops off Humvees, that would be sweet to put like a large parachute on a humvee (with you inside) and drop it outta plane. that would be soo cool.

The 2 in BF2 stands for 2000 or modern times.

This makes sense since this is technically the THIRD BF game.


BF3 would mean Battlefield in the 3rd millenium....

Mechwarrior, anyone?

Why can;t it just mean Battlefeidl 2? its like star wars 1, star wars 2, star wars 3.

the 2 is ther ebecause its the sequel to BF1942

wasn't battlefield:vietnam the sequel to 1942? that would make this the third in the franchise, so 2 does signify something differnent then "sequel"

I think DICE should leave Battlefield 3 up to some of the bigger mod teams. Some mods that are coming out are really interesting, like Shattered-Faith, that would be fucking awesome as a stand-alone game.

like he said, if all of you guys that want to play with future tech sign up for RoK (Rise of Kobol www.riseofkobol.com ) otherwise i think BF3 should be set entirely in either Nortk Korea, or in Alternate reality Europe after Soviet Invastion.

No, the 2 doesn't mean 2000, the 2 is nothing, bf2 is considered bf3 depending on what you think.

Anyway i'd think either a remake of bf1942 with 8 classes(got all of them planned) , remake of bf2 with 8 classes, or make it sci-fi.

well from every other game that has come out with a 2 after it its been because its the second engine (new game engine = new game.

example

half-life   half-life 2  but are different engines
the quakes
the doom games
wolfenstien
unreal 

they all have expantions such as battlefield veitnam is for battlefield1942
and they all have sequals that use new game engines that are sequentaly numbered
so it would be reasonable to say its battlefield 2 because its a new engine

if it was for the new mellenium i would expet them to use all 4 numbers 2000 like they did in 1942.

Could be the engine.. that is entirely plausible.

But Vietnam is NOT an expansion to 1942. You didn't need 1942 to play it, thus Vietnam is no expansion regardless of the engine it uses.

Or it's a mod that installs itself with the game!

Yeah, whats the story with BFV? It's no expansion nor is it a sequel??

BFV was a sequal, but it was kind of made to look like an expansion. BF2 was planned and announced very soon after BFV.

Okay, it is 1:17 AM now, and I'm pissed off because I couldn't find a song that I wanted to download in Limewire, ('Case' by Dimmer,) so I'm going to add my little wishlist.

Okay, so when BF2 was announced, I was fucken excited - for one main reason.

1) They said FULLY destructable environments.

I know how difficult this would be to make, but they promised! I was starting to really look forward to planting explosives on a wall and making a quick door for myself. I was very disapointed when I tried this and achieved nothing. Hell, the only destructable environments turned out to be those barrels, gas trailers and those thin wooden fences. Not cool.

I'd also like to see a realistic accuracy for Sniper rifles. The whole deviation rule means that sniper's bullets can go in 100,00 different directions, if only slightly, which real Sniper Rifles are designed not to do. They only way Snipers hit anywhere else but where they're aiming is bullet-drop, wind resistance, air pressure, and humidity. It has nothing to do with the rifle. Since wind is not a factor in BF2, the bullets pretty much fly off slightly in any random direction, which is not true to a Sniper. I like the whole bullet drop thing though, that's okay.

Whoo... awards. I like the awards and ranks and stuff. It's an awesome and catchy idea, but I don't think so much emphasis should be taken on awards and stats. It just takes aways from the game, and knowing that that one death will be recorded for all time, or the fact that you ran over six teammates and ended the round with a .38 kill:death ratio will be broadcast to the world takes away from the fun. I don't know how they'd sort this out, maybe have a 'panel' judge people's performance and award medals on that, or maybe the commander can recommend good soldiers for awards, EA or whoever's running it looks at the person, who is submitted, and judges on that. I don't know, too complicated and I'm just talking out of my arse here.

I'm not too keen on laser weapons, especially since playing Battlefront and Battlefront two as a Sniper. Those lasers are so damn slow you have to lead a target by so much and by the time the shot gets to them they've finished their picnic and moved on.

My insanely ridiculous and complicated, improbable but really cool idea, is that have "Battlefield 3: Century of War." We'd have everything from the Boer war to Modern BF2 era warfare, (maybe not Boer War, start at WW1 maybe.) They'd be a huge array of maps and the choices would be endless. We'd be using weapons and tactics from single shot rifles and trench warfare to the weapons we're using now. So much choice it'd be awesome.

Oh, and I hope EA do a similar thing with BF2 that they did with BFV. They made a mod so that BFV had the 1942 maps as well, but greatly improved.

O-okay, it is now 1:33 AM, I'm going to bed. Still couldn't find that damn song.

The 2 in battlefield 2 probly means second engine now that has been mentioned since bf2 is based on 2007, not 2000.

The technology used in the game is mostly 1980's-90's. The F2000 is an exception. The year 2000 gives you a pretty good idea of the timeframe we're in without getting into specifics.


As for fully destructable environments... I don't think any system could handle that right now. The physics involved to make a game where every piece of structure and land is disposable would be mind boggling.

Er, anyone recall a little game called Red Faction?
It did, in fact, have fully destructible environments. There were some limits to it, but that was several years ago, with the advances that have been made in the meanwhile, it should be possible.
