The engine they use require a set of multiple tools and EA has to buy each of them otherwise they can't release any mod tools. So, in the case of BC2 there were no mod tools because EA didn't feel like paying for them so most people are stuck on the BF2 engine or have to move onto another platform. Which meant that a good deal of the mod community of the BF series went all like: "FFFUUUUUUUU-" or worse lost interest in the BF-series as a mod platform and moved on. And this will repeat itself (most likely) in BF3.
I really hope this game does well against call of duty. I love battlefeild as you dont get lone soldiers who just run around knifing people. 2142 was my favourite so far but im highly anticipating this one.
I hope Multiplayer will have more debth to it than casual games. Something to encourage community, clans, keep things fresh etc. Single player of Modern military FPS's is utter shit
Yeh sorry about that i was using my ipod touch and i hit the wrong colour i usually use this colour though
Yea that whole appeal of bf2 was how mod-able it was. Also why the bad company series on a larger scale failed. It might take some time to get the community going, but I'm sure the mods will come. The game play looks pretty sick though.
The Bad Company series are okay, but what disappointed me was the fact that there was no proper clan system for the game. Me and my friends made a clan on it, but when the actual game came out, it didn't really support any clan system. You could do private matches, but you needed about 4 to 6 people to start a match. That was quite irritating. In the end, we decided to drop it because we won't going to anticipate on Gamebattles. Hopefully Battlefield 3 will have a proper clan system. What do you think the factions on the game will be?
hopefully its a bit like this cause ive fallen in love with this. http://battlefield.play4free.com/en/
looks like the destructible environment is even better in this one ill spend most of my time (in multiplayer) randomly blowing holes in walls instead of using doors
XD i did that in the battlefeild 1943(idk maybe it was 1942 or somthing i just played it on the ps3) driving tanks throgh walls and knocking down telephone poles and trees.
Or for instance: create your own cover! Fire HE shells with mortars/tanks and create craters for your mates.
