Battlefield 3 lead platform 'switched to consoles' mid-development
I know PC guys are gonna hate reading this.

Battlefield 3's lead development platform "switched" to consoles in mid-production, DICE GM Karl-Magnus Troedsson has confirmed.

The DICE boss shared the news in the latest issue of PSM3, where he revealed that despite Battlefield 3 looking very much like a shooter designed for advanced PC hardware, the latter stages of Battlefield 3's construction lead on PS3 and Xbox 360 in order to meet release on time.

"We said originally that the PC was the lead SKU of the game, but in mid-production we switched to console as lead platform to make sure we could get all the versions done for release," Troedsson confirmed.

"Our ambition at DICE is to use the power of each individual platform to get the most out of the game," he added.

"In the case of the PS3... I understand that if you compare it to a high-end PC, it's not going to look as good. But if you compare it to other games on the PS3, including other games we've done previously, I have to say I'm very happy with how it looks.

"Hopefully people will agree when they look at it in the same way."

EA previously said it lead development on PC because that audience "has been the one complaining."

Exec producer Patrick Bach said: "We actually haven't heard any complaints from the console audience. We are letting the PC audience make use of the very expensive hardware that they just bought so they can tick all the boxes and go for the 64-player fights."

In the press release announcing Battlefield 3's impressive "estimated" 5 million week-one sales, EA said it's making "daily improvements" to multiplayer servers.

 

 

[mister negative]

^why would anybody give a #$# about that?

We're all playing & enjoying the game, that #$# means nothing.


BTW Im B Moore221 in all the NT platoons holla if anybody ever sees me on

 

[wheaties]

If any of you guys need people to run with join my 360 platoon called 2 Easy heres the link http://battlelog.battlefi...oon/2832655241019049405/       or just add my gt ii MeecH ii i mainly play Rush. Game is 

 

 

[vendetta]

I'm not gonna get butthurt about it but it does bother me a little that they switched platforms. As a pure PC gamer there are rarely any games made these days designed to take advantage of the power we have available. If I'm dropping 2k on my PC I don't want to be stuck with something the consoles can run equally well. Specially from a game that is traditionally PC only. Much love to the console players but I've always loved PC more lol

 

[ricerocket1]

Good run fellas. See y'all tonight

 

[entourage24]

anyone on??? send me an invite on xbox gt=entourage24

 

[sladewilson]

Where the PC heads at ? 

 

[innovazndrummer]

lmao at sladewilson's "1328" spm and 5.33 kdr.. nice hax bro that spm is literally impossible to get legit. nice that you only play on servers with punkbuster off too.. how convenient

DICE keeps trollin'.

I can understand why the die-hards say that they've sold out. Suffice to say, this game was definitely rushed. A lot of things got left out. I still find it dumb that they left out in-game VOIP (not through Battlelog (which is buggy)) on PC and reason out that voice chat is not essential to the game.

But still, I have the faith in them to sort this out eventually with a gazillion patches.

Still find the controls on BF3 PS3 to be much more intuitive. DualShock feedback when firing weapons is

too. Sniping on PC, on the other hand, is just plain difficult. Drifts too much. Is there a L3 like button to focus/hold your breath while sniping?

64-player TDM on Grand Bazaar was ridiculous last night. Quite a frag fest.

 

[hoy its lindsay]

I'm thinking about selling this to gamestop for MW3.

It's boring as CRAP when I play by myself but fun as crap when I play with the NT Fam.

(None of my friends i know personally plays BF)

rofl that's why every single one of your last 16 battle reports are from servers with punkbuster off right?  wouldn't wanna get banned with all your hacks right?  don't try to play that "i play with punkbuster on or off".. i saw you mass joining servers that had punkbuster on for a minute at a time after you got called out son.  tryin to hide all the pbff servers but you prolly didn't realize that your battle reports don't update unless you finish out the round huh? 

  68 person kill streak bonus my $+#

  oh and why did you change your origin name two times and start defending yourself on your new aliases after people started calling you out for hacking on the battlelog forums? 

  
your last 5 battle reports for reference.. i got more if you need.  notice how they all say PBff

just admit it.. you're a dirty scrub hacker.  i bet you wouldn't get 1/4 the kills you got in a server with pb on and your hacks off sladewils0n aka 100MANYSLAYER aka 1337SN1PZz0R
