Over six million people took part in Battlefield Hardline beta

Matthew Wilson February 9, 2015 Software & Gaming

Over six million people took part in the Battlefield Hardline beta, publisher EA has revealed. Due to the high number of players, the beta will be extended slightly by one day. This means that Battlefield Hardline has managed to top Destiny, which also had a high number of players take part in its beta test last year. However, Destiny did not launch on the PC.

Steve Papoutsis, head of development studio, Visceral Games, said he was “thrilled” by the amount of players in the beta. The development team has reportedly already started implementing changes for the final game, which launches on the 17th of March.

In a post on EA's website, Papoutsis said: “Now, I know what you’re asking yourself. We’re just five weeks away from the launch of Battlefield Hardline, how could we possibly be acting on that feedback? Well, I can assure you we are. In fact, we've already been prioritizing changes for things fans are talking about. So you've still got a chance to be heard. The beta will end Monday night, February 9th Pacific Time.”

With six million players taking part, it is safe to say that Battlefield Hardline has had a successful beta test. Now the team just has to work on implementing the necessary changes in time for launch next month.

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.

    Not at all, it seems to be a decent game. Nothing groundbreaking, but it looks great and runs smoothly.
    I logged 9 hours in the beta and only had 2 crashes/issues. Its pretty fun.

    No significant issues, no significant changes, a significant price though. I participated but im not missing it.
