  3. Will you be making your final stand?

    DLC is not necessarily a bad thing, BK, even with BF4 or EA.

    EA explains why the BF4 Launch was so bad

    There's really no excuse for how BF4 launched. But then again we are talking about EA. I got BF4 at X1 launch and couldn't play it for over a month after getting it. Even the SP was messed up. Couldn't play that without losing the save. For them to try and
    make excuses and blame it on "ambition" is just silly. What's the excuse on all the other bad launches?

    It wasn't the first bad EA launch and it won't be the last.

    Conveniently they come out and almost apologise for releasing a broken game, right before the marketing campaign for hardline starts to gather momentum.

    Citing client side is also very duboius, that can mean ANYTHING from the console, to your internet, to the code running on your console... what it does however is make it 'appear' as if a problem at the consumer side, even though client side doesn't actually
    mean that.

    Still, even with all the problems (and the sluggishness for them to acknowledge and react), BF4 is the best game on next-gen consoles IMHO.... nothing compares to the epic action of 64 player MP open warfare, so I'll continue to play until something better
    comes along.

    PR Spin at best...He is trying to save face before hardline releases so it doesn't flop.

    -

    He blames the game client for having issues but not the servers. Why did they upgrade to "super servers" or whatever they called them.

    -

    He says it was a huge task for 64 player multiplayer at 1080p but yet they had it on BF3 for the pc.

    -

    I still say if they want to be successful with BF, they need to go back to the BC2 model and expand it from there.

    I agree, BF4 is without doubt the best shooter on next gen, WHEN IT WORKS.

    There is no way i'll be buying BF Hardline until I know that it works. Properly. I have serious doubts about this game though as it looks like it's a re-skinned BF4, which would probably mean all the same issues will just carry over into this game.

    I'm tired of buying unfinished products that hopefully will get fixed at some point. It's unacceptable.

  10. So they finally admit it was trash, trying to save face before their next disaster releases?

    BF is officially a franchise that I will not purchase until a GOTY edition, if it even gets there.

    Luckily there is plenty of other more worthy games out during the time of BF, all of which will be reliable.

    For me it pretty much says its EA wanted to take risks and make it bigger and better, but its all DICE's fault.

    While i can see where there coming from, but the statement I don't really think its acceptable, they aren't a new publisher and they aren't a new developer, IMO they should really have a good way to estimate how long specific things take and how to bring
    them to multi platforms.

    The reason my son hasn't bought BF4 is because of the issues and EA and DICE inability to convince him they have truly addressed the issue, IMO the PR is to little (even to little is a bit big) to late.

    I do think there launch sales figure will be effected, but I also think there is a split bag of fans over the new direction, but I if there is none to very few issues with the game then after launch sales will pick up, and if not it might because a sale
    price quickly.

  13. EA explains why the BF4 Launch was so bad

    IMO, any game that has to add a BETA 6 months after release to just let friends be able to Squad up prior to a match in a game that basically requires Teamwork = Total Fail!

    Never gave them a dime for it...and this game is excellent proof that gamers need to stop "pre-buying" games. These publishers/developers need to be held accountable when they release garbage knowingly, not rewarded whith a bunch of cash blindly given.
