Bad Company 2.. 1943.. BF3.. all coming to PC soon..

[Iced Earth]

Im looking forward to these games, especially Bad Company 2. However I doubt mod support will be encouraged at DICE. DICE is trying to sell Frostbite as a cheap source engine for other companies to purchase, they wont release a public version of their editor and allow those potential buyers to become Mod Teams instead.

Crap.

Just listened to an interview on BASH.

The DICE guy got hit with the question about Mod Tools, and he did say that there will be none released at release of the game. But he seemed to hint more on Community Made tools will probably be our only hope.

His excuse for the non-release of a editor for Frostbite was "Technology" saying that they were not in an area of advancement with their own tools to deliver an editor.

Either way...don't look forward to it, best you can do is pray.

Possibly pre-ordering bad company 2 limited edition with 25% off birthday coupon (for ea store)

Anyone think BF3 might be an MMOFPS something like PlanetSide?

Seems pretty cool to me. A map the size of France with a 1000 players on a server in a never ending war.

Game looks great, but the recommended specs have gotta be a killer...

Processor: QuadCore
Main memory: 2GB
Graphics card: nVidia GeForce GTX 260
Graphics memory: 512MB
OS: Windows Vista or Windows 7
Free HDD space: 15GB for Digital Version, 10GB for Disc Version [BFBC2],

I'm pretty sure a "quad-core" would not be a requirement for the game to run. If that was so, it would rule out A LOT of their customer base. I mean really? Quad-Core CPUs are quite expensive.

I'm sure it won't run smooth as butter on a single core or dual core, but it would run. Once the demo/beta for the PC comes out (hopefully sometime this month or the next) we will know for sure what we would need to make the game run. I could care less if I can't get the game to run with all the bells and whistles maxed out. I just want a game that will work!

There is no PC demo.
You can join the beta at 28 January. But you need a beta key to join.
And you get a beta key by pre-ordering the game from an official EA partner. (Like amazon)

I guess I have to buy a new CPU to run the game smooth.
I've got a 6000+ @ 2,98 Ghz now
2GB Ram
8880 GT (512MB)
OS: XP Sp3
