NEW TRANSLATION FROM SOMEONE WHO SPEAKS CHINESE

Lasgana: BF4

Given some later points (like already have an internal demo), this seems to refer to EA's normal two year development cycle of a one year pre-production cycle with ~30-40 people and then ballooning up to 150-300 people to make the game after most things are prototyped and planned out. Visceral, BioWare, and a fair number of publishers outside EA also operate this way since it allows you to have multiple projects without cyclical layoffs due to scaling down in pre-production and scaling up in production. For example, during the downtime between Bad Company 2 and Battlefield 3, DICE's spare staff worked on making Medal of Honor's multiplayer and helping to build Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit.

DUMB!!!!

How about they not be like Activision and wait till at least 2015.

[Tricky Sonic]

Wait..wait..are you seriously considering this chinese news to be legit? EA already stated they canned BF3 on the Wii U to focus on BF4

[Crackkat]

I think its fake, I don't think Battlefield 4 will come out next year. Maybe a bad company 3 or something but not 4. If it was real they wouldn't say xbox720 since that's just a made up name by people who don't know what it's really called

i hope you are right because this pisses me off so hard, do you have an official quote or its another BS rumor?

WOW, i just found that the BF4 rumour for wii u is from Wii U daily HAHAHAHA so this means there will be no BF for wii u, wii u daily its like a fanboy site who stated that GTA 5 was coming to wii u lol and look now what happens, what a fail site

^ Yeah hasnt EA said this themselves( yes). EA knows wii u will be a hit with hardcore gamers, this is false.

i hope you are right because this pisses me off so hard, do you have an official quote or its another BS rumor?

WOW, i just found that the BF4 rumour for wii u is from Wii U daily HAHAHAHA so this means there will be no BF for wii u, wii u daily its like a fanboy site who stated that GTA 5 was coming to wii u lol and look now what happens, what a fail site

Hahaha are you serious? cmon wii u daily... Im so done with them. BF4 is probably about 80 percent coming to wii u.

I think its fake, I don't think Battlefield 4 will come out next year. Maybe a bad company 3 or something but not 4. If it was real they wouldn't say xbox720 since that's just a made up name by people who don't know what it's really called

BF4 beta is available to MOH warfighter owners when its released next year or so. Thats what i remember seeing anyway.

This stuff is debunked anyway, wii u was supposed to get bf3 and EA has mentioned bf4 for wii u before.

[Nollog]

BF4 will not have a single year development cycle. 2 or 3 years more like.

[scotty79]

I have to say with the lack of any official word either way then this is beginning to look increasingly likely.Had we have seen bf3 and or warfighter I would be less sceptical.China is where a lot of tech news gets leaked these days

[Hinkik]

Why would they use the same engine for the next battlefield? In dice tradition, they have always developed a new version of their engine for their next Battlefield game. Not talking every game but you know.

[scotty79]

Well theres probably nothing wrong with the engine as is?Just released warfighter had it and if im right the first two bfbc games used frostbite 1?So it would probably follow that two bf games would use 2?

They have access to the beta whenever it comes out, but there has been no word about when that is, i doubt it will be anytime soon

I'm sick of these year on year samey shooters anyway.

Its obvious its coming to the 360,pc,ps3 and ouya.

[Goose]

Since Warfighter just came out I'm assuming the Beta can't be more than one year out. It will come out next holiday.

I agree with everyone here that the Wiiudaily sucks ass.

Anyway, the Wii U needs to get these bigger titles. I still think there is slim hope for GTA5 being released at a later date, similarly to the PC. But I only think there is a 10-20 percent chance of that happening. I'm pretty sure that Battlefield 4 will come to the Wii U though. If it doesn't then it's absolute 100 percent proof of EA bias towards Nintendo. There could be some mistranslation, but I don't want to sound like im grasping at straws.

[Zinix]

BF4 will be on the Wii U, this is just nonsense.

[scotty79]

Proof official until I hear those words then its all just pie in the sky

[3Dude]

Wait what? EA China? Thats a thing?

[Occult Satanist]

The wii U may not be able to handle bf4 i mean it is quite demanding
