[EG]Battlefield 3 dev calls competition "lazy"

Battlefield 3 developer DICE has fired off a few rounds at its competitors, accusing other military shooters of recycling the same old formula.
"Our competitors are getting lazy," DICE general manager Karl-Magnus Troedsson told Official PlayStation Magazine.
"They're using the same engine, the same recipe for building a game. At some point you need to take that leap. I haven't seen them take that leap since a long time ago.
"We are doing that now," he insisted. "They had better watch out. We are coming for them."
Who on earth could he be referring to? It's a wild shot in the dark, but considering all of publisher EA's recent bluster about going head to head with Call of Duty, one obvious target springs to mind.

the frost bite 2 engine is really a true work of art..... the guys at dice say it is not that power hungry and it has one of the best graphical capabilites..... it may even surpass crysis 2

@gaurav they said that because treyarch/activision/infinity ward whoever has been developing the call of duty series is only just adding heavy modifications to the original cod engine and this is killing the franchise.... the game doesn't look that good .....

@jojo it will be a daunting taskk to run 256 players at once even when you have pretty much all the processing power you need..... and specially when the game handles a heavy amount of graphical content.....

256 players = fail. And it ain't BF if there's 256 players, as Jojo said, 21st century PCs cannot hold on to 256 players. Providing them with real-like destruction, jets, APCs, tanks and rendering them in true-to-life animations. That's just imaginary.

64 players = epic win.

And... they are not adding any new things to the game. That's the main reason.

*scoffs* Get your troll arse back to N4G.com.

Goddarn! I hate these PS3 newbz. And, it ain't noob-console-friendly Bad Company series. It's the uber-1337 Battlefield series. You can play with 32 players, no probs.
