… for PC users, that is.
“Battlefield 3 is the true successor to Battlefield 2. Beyond our signature multiplayer, we have also included a full single-player campaign and a co-op campaign – all straight out of the box. As for fan favorite features, how does the return of jets, prone, and 64-player multiplayer (on PC) sound?” – Battlefield Blog
Sounds like but a small portion of many features lost since BF2's release in 2005. I would ask what took so long, but I already know: consoles. As soon as consoles became apart of the Battlefield scene it dumbed down the features, simplified the gameplay, and had an overall watering down effect. Maybe it’s going to far to say that all games are better on PC, but it’s a fact that Battlefield games were originally better when they were PC exclusives. To all the console owners upset about the (on PC) part, just imagine how you’d feel having those things for years then losing them. Yeah, it sucks.
They need to deliver on the maps though. I want some BF2 map sizes with plenty of room for jets to dogfight, helicopters to actually sneaks units in behind, and for skirmishes to take place in remote places on the battlefield. Maps are too small now in BF and CoD. It’s like throwing people in a box with machine guns and then wondering why everyone died at once. It also needs mod support, complete server control from multiple server hosts, commanders (maybe with some tweaks), customizable squads, and just about everything else Battlefield 2 in order to be the true successor.
We’re finally catching up with 2005.
