Battlefield 4 Information Round Up

These last few days have been INSANE with all the information coming out for the next in the Battlefield series. We have teaser trailers, dog tags and a stack of leaked features. Come with me!

A few days ago we got the leaked artwork for BF4 ( check out our write up on it here ). Then the guys over at DICE created a new site that urged players to log in. The new Battlefield 4 Official Website had a counter going, the more players that logged in with their Origin account the more would be revealed for the first teaser image. What was unlocked first was this fabulously orange picture of a smoking aircraft carrier, titled “Amphibious Assault”

Couple that with today’s teaser “SEA”, I HOPE, that we can see a type of aircraft carrier defend mode. If you’ve played Battlefield 2142’s Titan mode then you know what kind of crazy antics to expect.

Next we got this other teaser, “Land”.

Tease after tease! FINALLY, we got some leaked info on what the game features will be like. These are unconfirmed as of now, but hopefully at least half of these stick.

Battlefield 4 will stick with 64 players. Maps are larger and more detailed.

 

Three factions: US, Russia, and an unnamed “Eastern/Asian” faction.
4 classes with “additional features and tweaks” compared to BF3
Shipping with same amount of maps as BF3, there are plans for lots of DLC.
DLC is already in planning stages.
Battlefield 4 Premium will be available on day one and include some perks.
Most of the guns and vehicles from BF3 will return.
More squad features.
Commander feature returns, but won’t be the same as in BF2
Battlefield 4 is coming out on both current and next gen systems, and PC as well.
Game is more of an evolution rather than revolution of the series. Both technically and gameplay wise.
Will ship with more game modes than BF3
Will ship with more close quarter infantry maps than BF3
Frostbite 2 engine is pushed further in BF4. Better effects, higher res textures, more detailed game worlds, etc.
BF3 will still be supported after Battlefield 4 launches.
There is plan of some sort of integration between BF3 and BF4. Could be Battlelog-only.
Battlelog will be updated for Battlefield 4 with more social features and more detailed stats.
Single-player and co-op will return, new writers involved this time.

 

This is all very, very exciting! I really hope they implement some sort of Titan mode and bring the Commander Role back proper. Playing Commander in BF2 was one of the funnest things I did in the game, besides intense HALO missions.

With all this info getting pumped out we can certainly expect the game to shit this year, like what was rumored.
