Planet Battlefield writes: "Two weeks ago EA announced Battlefield Heroes, an announcement that caught everyone by surprise. Where was the rumored announcement of Battlefield 3? The first details of the game are slowly coming to light, and this is clearly not like any other Battlefield game we have seen.
The community's reaction of the game seems to be pretty negative, which is understandable since Battlefield Heroes doesn't fit the scheme of past Battlefield games. DICE have this bad perception by many mainly because they don't like how they handled Battlefield 2 and 2142."
Revive Network kept fans happy with a few long dead Battlefield titles, but today that all stops.
A Battlefield Heroes remake is now available. The open beta can be downloaded right now, with players populating servers once more.
Battlefield Heroes is scheduled to shut it's doors on the 14th July.
Due to dwindling player counts EA most likely decided now was the best time to retire the third person shooter of the acclaimed Battlefield series.
Battlefield Heroes officially launched on the 25th June 2009.
yes Iam really surprised .. PS2 graphics on PC in 2008!! thats really unbelievble..
btw for that kind of artstyle we have a HUGE multiplayer game called :
TF2 ! (it doesnt need any vehicle , its hell of FUN)
That doesn't mean other devs can't use that same art style though.
"they don't like how they handled Battlefield 2" WTF!?
Battlefield 2 is considered one of the best multiplayer games of all time and won more than few awards. It was way better than 1942 and Vietnam. Yes, a bit more complex but a whole lot more fun.
As for Heroes, it's obvious that EA has seen the money in this type of psedue free-to-play system and wants to try and cash in.
They should just stop this BF Heroes nosense and give us BF3 with the new frostbite engine. WTF... do i have to buy a console just to play the new Battefield game :(
WTF Dice... did you forget about the PC players... they made you what you are today.
WHY DO U MOAN ON SOMETHING FREE ?
