It's a cross between that and beta testers.

This is a great idea. They can gauge how the players feel about everything instead of launching a flop like they did recently.

Nice, get rid of the futuristic stuff and return to something more raw and gritty! I do hope they keep the way you could modify attachments on the fly, that was a pretty brilliant implementation and making it more about adjusting to the situation you are in.

Has anyone been able to get access yet? I signed up on Tuesday and still waiting. I was hoping to get approved faster since my EA account is 15 years old and had lots of history with BF games, I was thinking maybe that would improve my chances haha. It’s under strict NDA though so no screenies!

I think its just signing up for now but a beta test is coming up soon it seems.


Im totally here for this type of development. Battlefield was only good when it focused way more on the campaign.

I know theyll never go back to the kind of group/banter that was there for the first couple games, unless the feedback on it during its development changes that, but itll be cool to see if making the next battlefield game this way is what we want.

Just imagine if they made Bad Company 3, I would tear up if they did. BC2 was a rare type of game, it had the perfect blend of a great single player campaign and awesome multiplayer. I played the campaign many times over and have at least 50 hours in multiplayer alone. Talking about it makes me want to play the campaign again.
