....i cant see the battlefield bad company demo up on there. Instead Kung Fu Panda demo is up. I really wanted to see what battlefield bc was like as i really like battlefield games.

iNcRiMiNaTi5813d ago

saved me from turning on my 360 for no reason. its still early in the morning and didnt really feel like playing yet but i was ready to check out the demo cuz i saw "bad company demo out"

NegativeCreepWA5813d ago

I think the demo is pre-orders only.

iNcRiMiNaTi5813d ago (Edited 5813d ago )

the demo is out today is for pre-orders, they get it early

the demo comes out for everyone else on june 5th.

BeaArthur5813d ago

Correct me if I'm wrong but I was pretty sure we were suppossed to get a NG2 demo this month.

iNcRiMiNaTi5813d ago

but i saw this article a few minutes ago

http://www.n4g.com/xbox360/...

not sure if its true tho

BeaArthur5813d ago

I see, thanks for the link. That is kind of a rip-off though. If they are not going to deliver they shouldn't have mentioned it in the first place.

KrisXX5813d ago

Wasn't Commando 3 w/ the SSF2THDR beta due out this month/week? Or was the release date changed?!

Ali_The_Brit5813d ago

its really not worth setting up my 360 again just for the BF demo..so il just wait till next thursday for it

greed695813d ago

Did you need to pre order through EA or could you have pre ordered at EB/Gamestop?

Cause I already have mine pre ordered, and I got nothing with my pre order.

The Argument for Battlefield: Bad Company Remakes

With the franchise’s mainline entries failing to find their footing in recent years, now is the perfect time for a Battlefield: Bad Company remake.

Of course there is no counter argument. This is what fans of the franchise have wanted for years. This and/or BF Bad Company 2.

When asked why there hasn't been another Bad Company:

“There's one thing that lingers with Bad Company that we've been asking ourselves: What is it that the people really liked about Bad Company?" DICE general manager Karl Magnus Troedsson told Eurogamer.

Troedsson says that he and his team can’t put their fingers on what it is that people loved about that branch of the brand. “It's hard for people to articulate what that is, which is actually hard for us,” he says. “It would be hard to remake something like that. Can we do it? Of course. We have our theories when it comes to the multiplayer."

I always activate the Black Weapon on BFV Solomon Islands for all the BC2 fans who hear/recognize it, thus starting the events of BC2 on BF5 :)

Derrrunnn. Derrrunnn.

What is so hard to understand for them?

Bad Company 2 is one of the best and most memorable games in the series because:
- It was class-based (duh)
- Heavy focus on squads
- Substance over map size or gimmicks
- Fantastic and realistic gun play
- Well designed maps
- Destructible environments (why has this been minimised so hard in the series? You could demolish buildings in bad company 2 with some well placed C4
- Great progression system and variety in play
- No stupid CoD imitations or focus on the store over the game
- It was *drumroll* incredibly good fun?
- It was unmistakably BATTLEFIELD

INMATEofARKHAM114d ago

Probably should add a fun campaign to the list.

wtf? He has also written in a ton of Marvel comic books, and you quote Squirrel Girl? Click bait at its best.

Alexious180d ago

What? He is most known for Squirrel Girl. How is that clickbait?

CrimsonWing69181d ago

Is that a good thing? 🤷‍♂️

FinalFantasyFanatic180d ago

I honestly don't know since I'm only a casual Marvel fan, do people like Squirrel Girl?

autobotdan181d ago

Better have the real Mandarin in the game. No fakes

Wait for gameplay first. Why do people blindly hype games without any solid video evidence?

tbagmonster189d ago

like exomecha, game looked amazing, they even showed unreal engine 5 updates, meanwhile its year and half later, company is gone, website is for sale and the company is gone

DOMination-189d ago

Wow.. Where have I been to completely miss this.. haha

Glad to see EA Motive getting more responsibility after the good work they seemed to have done with the Dead Space remake. A well-done Iron Man game has the potential to be REALLY good fun!

mkis007189d ago

Watch them recycle anthem into it.

Seraphim189d ago (Edited 189d ago )

Wouldn't be an entirely bad thing if we're talking about using the flight from Anthem. The up and go/flight was pretty solid. It was the shooting and other aspects that made Anthem subpar imo. So if we're talking combat then they need to do some work. Granted, even if they opted to use flight from Anthem some work would probably still need to be done regarding fast paced aerial combat. 2 cents

raWfodog189d ago

I agree. Anthem’s flight mechanics were smooth and responsive. This Ironman game needs to take that and improve upon it further.
