Battlefield: Bad Company

TechZ · August 21st, 2006, 6:34 PM

Digital Illusions sent out a press release announcing Battlefield: Bad Company, their new upcoming game for Xbox 360 and PS3. The game will use the DICE-developed Frostbite engine and is scheduled for release in 2007.

Built from the ground-up for next-generation consoles using Digital Illusions' bleeding-edge Frostbite game engine, Battlefield: Bad Company drops gamers behind enemy lines with a squad of renegade soldiers who risk it all on a personal quest for gold and revenge. Featuring a deep, cinematic single-player experience loaded with adventure and dark humor, the game delivers the series' trademark sandbox gameplay in a universe where nearly everything is destructible.

"The heart of DICE's multiplayer games is the frenetic, unpredictable nature of the sandbox experience, where anything could happen at any moment, and that's what we're bringing to the core of Battlefield: Bad Company's single-player campaign, said Karl Magnus Troedsson, senior producer at DICE. "In a world that's 90 percent destructible, the gameplay possibilities are infinite -- the battlefield is always changing, forcing players, teammates, and enemies to react accordingly. Gamers will have total freedom to adapt to and tackle challenges in creative Battlefield-style ways."

Battlefield: Bad Company also will feature a full suite of the franchise's trademark multiplayer options with deep gameplay modes designed to take full advantage of the game's massively destructible environments.

Bad Company is a Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 game, but this press release seems to incline a PC and PSP version (translation) being on the way.

90 percent destructible? We'll see......

Sounds pretty cool though. Would be nice to see something like this on the PSP.

It probably won't be a traditional Battlefield game, it'll probably be a first-person shooter. images/smilies/wacko.gif

Um... I think you may find all of the other battlefield games are first-person shooters images/smilies/tongue.gif

The last few times I played BF2, i was the Commander, so I totally forgot about it being a FPS. It's been awhile since i played it.

But what i think i meant is it will be like Medal of Honor or something like that - a "proper" FPS not with "bots" so to speak.
