HoldenZA3176d ago

Oh looking forward to this one!

Sillicur3176d ago

Yah EA Access is just getting better and better it seems

Black0ut3176d ago

AWESOME! The value in EA Access is beyond amazing. Glad I bought a years sub last month!!!

Automatic793176d ago

Wow incredible value offered and EA Access is only in its first two years of this generation.

user99502793176d ago

yeah this is a big one. I was so close to buying it in that games with gold sale last month, but stopped myself at the last second because I knew this would happen. This is the next big reason to keep hanging on to my EA Access subscription (and Battlefront demo/discount)

good stuff. Looking forward to jumping back into 64 player The Block servers.

Assuming most don't have the game

OC_MurphysLaw3176d ago

I actually don't buy ANY EA games anymore...and instead just invest in EA Access. I will happily play this via the Vault.

SonZeRo3176d ago

Hardline is a good game, but it had horrible following so good luck have people to play with.

Sillicur3176d ago

I really enjoyed the Multiplayer and still do sometimes even after my review was done. Its pretty fun and the hit registration feels great compared to some older battlefields.

freshslicepizza3176d ago

this will no doubt help revitalize the multiplayer. the good thing about ea access is the list grows, they don't remove a title to replace it with another.

TheGreatGamer3176d ago (Edited 3176d ago )

Why Sony thought EA Access wasn't good value is crazy, been holding off Hardline waiting for it to enter the vault

Sillicur3176d ago

Indeed, great value for $30 a year! And it keeps getting better as time goes by.

Davi1233176d ago

No its not. You need to have Xbox live to have EA Access, so is 80$ for a year.

bleedsoe9mm3176d ago

wait until BC games start entering more fequently

Lev19033176d ago

@BoyBigEyes. Xbox live 30 dollars a year. Ea acces 30 dollars. Total 60 dollars.

Bf4
Bf Hardline
Dragon Age
Need for speed
Titanfall
And 8 different Sport games.

Yeah totally not a great value here. And you need Live for playing online;)

HanCilliers3176d ago

I wonder how many Xbox One gamers do this. And I agree, great idea from MS.

Sillicur3176d ago

Im starting to think that sony really dropped the ball by not using EA Access as well.

ShowanW3176d ago

@BoyBigEyes, you DO NOT need to have Live Gold to have EA Access.

You need to have Live Gold to play the multi-player portion of games...

So if you buy EA Access just for the single player aspect of games, you are fine to just purchase EA Access...

Do not spread false information to people

Davi1233175d ago

@Lev1903

You are totally right! I'm wrong!

XBOX Live $59.99 (not $50)+ EACcess $30 = $89.99!!!

You pay $30 for Live? A full year? Good for you!
Always are big promotions for PS Plus and Xbox Live all the year! :D

Battlefield 1, Hardline, BF4 Servers Are Being Taken Offline by Cheaters; EA Silent on Issue

Cheaters & hackers have been causing grief on Battlefield 1, Hardline & BF4 servers, with nonstop DDoS attacks among other things. Unfortunately, EA has remained silent about it.

-Foxtrot797d ago

Course they are silent, they are hoping people flock to 2042

gamesftw250796d ago

Maybe it was a inside job then haha.

jeromeface796d ago

wouldnt be the first time, titanfall 1+2 anyone?

PapaBop796d ago

Not even if they paid me.. EA always do this with old games with less money potential, if this was Ultimate Team, they'd address and sort it faster than stories could spread. Why invest time in their products when they will just dump it in the following years? Then again EA never could see the forest for the trees.

Inverno796d ago

I imagine after those games were given out for free a couple months back through Amazon, anything that makes people go to 2042 is a plus for them

XiNatsuDragnel797d ago

They want people to go on 2042. My theory

excaliburps796d ago

Nah. I think they can't do anything about it or they want to sink money into fixing it.

Pudge102888796d ago (Edited 796d ago )

EA owns all BF servers so yes, they can do something about it but they refuse to because they dont want ppl playing their old games instead of the new one. Its EA we’re talking about here

pr33k33796d ago

if this happened in 2042, they'd have something to say. which is weird, considering battlefield 1 has more players on steam right now.

Pudge102888796d ago

Its so obvious that EA is doing this or hired ppl to mess up the games so that we’d be forced to have just 1 Battlefield working.

FPS_D3TH796d ago

Honestly it’s probably the devs themselves. They did an update to bf4 way back that kinda made assault rifles doo doo in hopes that people would flock to BF1 cuz BF4 was too perfect

Ranking All The Battlefield Games

From Xfire: "With the next game being a return to the classic XX42 formula, now is as good a time as any to make an utterly definitive and in no possible way controversial ranking of the Battlefield games we've enjoyed over the years, with which undoubtedly nobody will take issue in the comment section. Right? Okay then - here we go, from least good to best."

OMNlPOTENT1068d ago

Battlefield 1 above 4 and Bad Company 2? Not a chance.

Ruegrong1068d ago

battlefield 4 was broken as shit on launch same as battlefield 3

isarai1067d ago

Bad company 2 was still my favorite, sure it was a bit gimped compared to the rest if the series but more fun and far more satisfying weapon unlocks.

XxINFERNUSxX1067d ago (Edited 1067d ago )

Battlefield 1942 + both expansions are my all time favorite, it can still be played online to this day. Vietnam would be my 2nd, 3rd Battlefield 2, last BF2142 the rest I didn't care for. They really need to remake from the ground up in the new engine BF1942. Next year it will be 20 yrs since it was released. If they don't at least to me would be a disservice. ☹

"erasing that simply reinforces toxic male privilege." I see the writer is one of those types of people...

The Life & Death of the Season Pass

In a time not too long ago, a foul infection spread its way through the games industry. It was a vile illness that burrowed itself in deep, feeding off of greed and the incessant begging of teens desperate to receive funds from their parents. It divided friend groups, suffocated player bases, and was common practice up until recently—it was the season pass.

This doesn't make a ton of sense. Season Passes may slowly fade out for multiplayer games, perhaps, but I don't see them going anywhere in games that are primarily single player. They don't seem to touch on this either, with every game being some kind of online/multiplayer/GaaS title, and nary a mention of a single player game - at least that I saw.

I mean, games like Borderlands 3 just asked people to buy in to the 2nd season pass. Battle passes can't really take over in places that have story driven content and such. So I'd say perhaps they missed a bit of a necessary distinction but, since they claim the death of season pass is at hand, it appears they may have missed how single player games factor into this entirely.
