DICE: Battlefield 3 will be “the best Battlefield game we’ve ever built”

17 June 2011

Not that anybody really needs more convincing, perhaps, but DICE isn’t done telling us just how amazing Battlefield 3 is going to be when it launches in October, just ahead of its big competitor, Modern Warfare 3. And not just amazing, mind you, but nothing less than the “best” game in the series, ever. Gasp!

“We are not trying to be the same game [as Modern Warfare 3],” says the project’s executive producer, Patrick Bach, in an interview the the US PlayStation Blog. “I know that there’s a lot of things that you can compare, and it’s a FPS, it takes place in modern day, and has a military theme. 

“But in general, we’re making a battlefield game. We’ve always been making battlefield games since the first game, Battlefield 1942 back in 2002. We know what the formula is, so this is going to be the best Battlefield game we’ve ever built. So, I think it’s more up to what the consumer wants: if they want a deep military experience when it comes to infantry and vehicles; if they want destruction and they want the all-out 64 or 24-player war, then this is the game for you.”
