SP will probably be a fail, like BC2. Doesn't matter, it'll probably be tacked on just to make console players happy, also some people don't like playing games online so it caters for them too.

WHAT
 
Anyone could host an unranked BF2 server I believe, the server files are publicly available.

They weren't at launch though were they?

I thought dice always kept server files private for a long time (at least till they wanted to stop supporting it at a high level)
 
Big issue with this game in my view, everyones getting hyped for it but the fact remains after Ea\Dice screwed over Trauma Studios (Desert Combat devs) the majority of them left the Company. Last i read there were only a couple of the original BF2 devs left at Dice.

Which raises the obvious question, Are they are able to make a game as good as BF2 with most of the key people missing? Suppose the Beta should give us a good indication at least.

They were avaiable from day 1 and on the game disk. Remember that most people went and hired ranked servers because it was the only way to get stats.
 
Maps as DLC, if they are decent and there are enough stock maps, I dont mind.

HOWEVER, I do not believe we will see mod support for custom maps if they are planning on creaming it for themselves.

to be fair they never charged for the DLC but they did say the sdk would be available this year for BC2 so maybe we might get it for BF3 instead.

And I hope they don't have the gun positions to the side of your face like in BC2 compared to BF2 where they was in line with your lower chest

il be up for that tbh, if karkands one then clearly wake is in there aswell....will happily by the LE or dlc for those two maps...providing of course that the base game is bf2 style not bc2.

I don't recall dice ever stating that an sdk was coming for bc2. One of the programmers put a large post on the official forum showing how complicated and resource hungry creating content was.
 
Had a blast on bf2 and by god its still as good as i remember. Still has its faults but its a gem. I would not mind if dice took bf2 and remade it in hd with a new engine. I would also like to see dedicated air maps, a battle of britain 1942
