DICE wants Battlefield 4 community to help build new map

Matthew Wilson February 20, 2015 Software & Gaming

DICE is reaching out to its community of Battlefield 4 players to help build a new map for the game. This new map will be tested in the Community Test Environment by Battlefield 4 Premium members, who will then be able to make suggestions on tweaks for it.

The plan was detailed by creative director, Thomas Andersson, who wrote on the Battlelog: “as a thank you to the Battlefield community for sticking to your Battlefield 4 guns and giving excellent feedback to improve the game”.

There is still more to come though, in March a big patch will be released for Battlefield 4, designed to improve the netcode and player collision, additionally, some changes will be made to Squad Obliteration so that it becomes a much more competitive game mode.

“Our ambition with Squad Obliteration is to create something fast and challenging for the players and an entertaining experience for those who watch the matches”, the Battlelog post said.

DICE has plans to continue supporting Battlefield 4 for the rest of the year, even after the release of Battlefield Hardline next month, which is being made by Visceral Games, another EA owned studio.

KitGuru Says: The launch of Battlefield 4 seriously damaged DICE and EA's reputation. However, things seem to have improved over 2014 and Ubisoft has taken such a dive that EA seems like a better company by comparison. Hopefully future Battlefield launches won't face the same issues that Battlefield 4 did. Do you guys think EA is going to step up its game in 2015? Do you think we'll see anymore Battlefield-like disaster launches any time soon?

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.

    DICE needs to let BF4 go. Fix and patch what’s in the game now and move on to another project. My fear is, some DICE devs that worked on BF4 are just sitting around, and this is how the CTE and this community map came to be, and nothing more.

    I have over 2000 hours played in BF3 and BF4. BF4 got uninstalled, but BF3 didn’t. Nuff said.

    At least they’re doing some community projects. Your played time is also proof that, regardless of how bad the whining was about BF4, people enjoyed it.

    CTE is a joke.
