Battlefield 4 Leak

[psusnoop]

Lasgana: BF4
Lasgana: Coming October 23rd, 2013
Lasgana: development just started, expected to be done in 1 yr [Nirolak's Note: Since this is the one likely to elicit the most "this is fake" notes, I feel I should elaborate. Given some later points (like already have an internal demo), this seems to refer to EA's normal two year development cycle of a one year pre-production cycle with ~30-40 people and then ballooning up to 150-300 people to make the game after most things are prototyped and planned out. Visceral, BioWare, and a fair number of publishers outside EA also operate this way since it allows you to have multiple projects without cyclical layoffs due to scaling down in pre-production and scaling up in production. For example, during the downtime between Bad Company 2 and Battlefield 3, DICE's spare staff worked on making Medal of Honor's multiplayer and helping to build Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit. As to what the bulk of DICE's staff worked on prior to this going into production, it's probably either a second project or, once again, other EA games.]

True or false

Seems weird for release date imo.

[SmoothPancakes]

Seeing as the 23rd is a Wednesday, I'm saying false. If they had said the 22nd in that thing, then I'd consider believing it. Anything though saying something other than the 15th, 22nd or 29th, then I'm calling bullshit.

[I OU a Beatn]

Yep, games always release on Tuesdays. Very rarely they'll release on Friday. Virtually never on any other days.

[psusnoop]

I will add that the is from a China EA employee I gathered.

It was translated which is my first post.

[psusnoop]

I agree and I'm not buying the release date but the info was interesting.

Here is MongolFPS breaking it down.

I don't see next gen being out by then either.

That would be a shocker as well

Yeah I bet it will. The new XBox will be here Oct or Nov of 2013. Rumors floating around that BF4 will be next Gen and will utilize Frostbite a lot more than BF3 did. Since it can't release exclusive on next Gen and leave out PS3, I could see it coming out in Oct. and then possibly bundled with the next Xbox then or in Nov.

SO E, I know you and I were Xbox guys a long time ago any thoughts of switching back?

Very good chance the next consoles won't be announced til E3 in June. I doubt they'd only have a 4-month buildup from the official announcement.

Was just talking about this today. I'm doing it. Probably not right away but I'd say Feb/March I would get one, when I'm done with NCAA for that year.

I don't know. 720 in time for the 2014 holiday season would be hard to pass up for MS.

[JBHuskers]

I'll get both eventually, but getting the PS4 first.

2014 holiday season would be a year and a half after 2013 E3 :nod:

Not when Snoop and I are playing BF4 and TW on an Xbox.

Guess you guys can run your own league :D i'm getting PS4 first for sure.

[SmoothPancakes]

Yes! Come (back) to the dark side! We have cookies over here! :D

[JBHuskers]

It's pretty simple for me. Playstation Plus > XBOX Live. Nearly the same price, but I get $200 worth of free games at the very least. In 2012, it was a lot more than $200. Most of this site is PS3 right now, for leagues, etc. That plays into it some. I just like PS better than 360.

Ummmm...


The Xbox 360 was officially unveiled on MTV on May 12, 2005, with detailed launch and game information divulged later that month at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3).

The Xbox 360 was released on November 22, 2005, in the United States and Canada

Well the leagues is where I'm held up. If Powerhouse is going to stay PS that it will be a tough choice. I think with TW there are enough that have the XBox or willing to get one that we could convert that. Those are the only leagues I really care about.

With everything that Xbox is doing with SmartGlass and Xbox Live I can't see PS keeping up, hell PS can't even put out a PSN app. I'm ready to jump just need something to push me :)

[JBHuskers]

I'm not fully sold on Smartglass being as mind blowing as you're making it seem. It's already out now and working for 360. It's cool and neat, but not a dealbreaker when deciding what to get first between PS4 and whatever XBOX calls their new system.

Meh, I realize there's a lot of people happy with Plus, but I'm not one of them. I still have a subscription to it, but I wont be resubscribing when it does run out. It always did rub me the wrong way that one of the features was automatic trophy synchronization. A. That should have been a feature day one, and B. It's not even automatic! It waits until the time it's set to automatically turn on and it does it then. Xbox is automatic...you don't have to do a thing.

The only thing I see that Plus really has to offer is a bunch of old games I've already played. For anyone who buys a lot of games, whether it be on release or during a sale, Plus is pretty much useless because they rarely ever use newer games.

Meanwhile, the profile system on Playstation is horrific. No cross game chat, no cross game invites, the patching system is laughable, and the fact that you have to install the damn game after you download it is just beyond laughable.

I love my PS3, but I do NOT love Plus or PSN. Sony needs to whip their heads out of their asses, realize it's not 2006, and start cranking out some online features that people actually care about.

That's why I said for me and not saying anyone HAS to go along with what I believe :D

You don't think everything you've mentioned hasn't been brought up by Sony the past 6 years? I'm pretty sure they'll address all of the above (except the patching system, I dunno if a new system will improve that or not).

Not saying the Smartglass is completely mindblowing but it is definitely something cool and PS hasn't even sniffed the surface of what can be done. It is out now but only on like 3 games. Once more games take to it, it will be a nice FEATURE.

Look at Kinect, do you even now anyone that has PS Move?

A few. :D

They've all been issues since the launch of the PS3 and none of them have been addressed, so no, I firmly believe none of them will be addressed until at least PS4, if even then. I personally believe Sony thinks they can ride the coattails of all their exclusives and just hope and pray that people are interested in them. When it comes to online services, the 360 just completely blows Sony out of the water.

I don't just bash Sony, though. Smartglass and Kinect are equally stupid. :nod:

[Escobar]

I will be getting the PS4, but don't know if I should get one at launch as the first batch or things always have problems.
