Call of Duty series has been
enjoying meteoric success for the past few years. However, EA's Battlefield is
dead set to cut off Call of Duty's reign and become the new FPS leaders.
Their new installment Battlefield
4 is set to release on October 29, 2013
across all platforms including the next generation’s consoles. However, we can
enjoy the beta version of the game on our PC, Xbox 360 or PS3 which has been
made available a month ago prior to release.
This demo provides a glimpse of what Frostbite 3
engine has in stores for us It features Siege of Shanghai map, with
gameplay modes including Conquest or Domination. Some new elements like
Levolution and Amphibious Assault are also a part of the beta experience.
As per EA, the reason for outing
the beta is to “properly test our servers, the back end, and configure the
multiplayer components of the game.” They also clarified that the feedback
gathered from beta users would actually impact the gameplay experience in the
final release, as well as “ensuring a smooth launch for Battlefield 4.” While
the claim sounds promising, it’s unclear whether one month would actually be
sufficient to make good use of the beta campaign, or if it’s just a marketing
gimmick that EA wants to capitalize on. Either way, we’re not complaining.
The beta ends October 15, 2013.
