EA announces Star Wars: Battlefront from DICE (presumably DICE LA).

I changed my pants

Hell yes, been waiting for a new one. Even though it was only for like 5 minutes it was the first and only game I ever played online until this current gen.

Way to go EA. Don't bother developing or creating anything. Just dust off old shit and slap a new name on it.

Seriously, you guys don't actually think this is going to be any good, do you?

Considering that its being developed by the people that gave us Battlefield (DICE), and it's using the Frostbite 3 Engine, there is a pretty good reason everyone is :fap:ing uncontrollably.

As soon as I saw the familiar scenery of Hoth and heard those blasters, I was ready for them to take my money.

As long as it's Original Trilogy and not Prequel Trilogy, I'll be fine with it.

The teaser trailer reminds me of the 5th movie.

It's the last "good" game from Lucasarts, and they abandoned the third one for whatever reason. The fact that DICE is doing this game makes it that much better.

As long as the vehicle battles aren't as clunky as they were in BF I and II, I'll be happy. Actually, thats the only thing they really need to improve from the previous.

I saw on Reddit that the DICE team creating the new Battlefront won't be the Battlefield DICE. No, it will be the recently re-branded DICE Los Angeles, the team that just released the new Medal of Honor games. Not saying those games were bad, but they aren't anywhere near the quality of the Battlefield series.

Honest question: why is this announcement so exciting? Were the Battlefront games that well-received by the gaming community? I just don't remember seeing gaming communities raving about the Battlefront games back in the day. My only memory of Battlefront was my SOCOM II clan rolling together on Battlefront for a few weeks, but we all eventually went back to SOCOM.

Well yeah, I've said from day 1 that this is why DICE opened that new studio with a lot of the Danger Close employees. But this time they'll have the DICE tools and resources to use and I'm pretty sure I read that one of the DICE people is now the head of DICE LA. I'm pretty confident we'll get a much better product than the recent Danger Close games.

DICE 'well into development' on Star Wars: Battlefront

DICE is "well into development" on next-gen multiplayer shooter Star Wars: Battlefront, EA Games Label president Frank Gibeau has revealed.

Gibeau discussed DICE's progress on the title during EA's FY14 Q1 earnings call earlier this evening, following the game's announcement at E3 last month.

"We showed 22 seconds of where we're going with it and the fan response was very positive," commented Gibeau. "The DICE team is well into development on that product already, so we feel very bullish about our shooter rotation over the next several years."

Star Wars: Battlefront also "has a third-person component to it", Gibeau confirmed, suggesting the game will retain the previous games' option to switch between first and third-person perspectives.

 

[ThomasTomasz]

I've become more optimistic on the Star Wars brand as a whole. DICE can live up to the expectations and make a game that's not just great for SW fans, but for everyone.

This Gen or next Gen consoles ?
