They are just milking the hype from BF3 as it was a very popular game for EA and DICE. I personally would have much preferred BC3 as it has a much better storyline with much much better characters and a nice sense of underlining humor to go with it. BF4 to me will just be more like BF3.5 and not a true evolution.

To be honest, I don't think most people see Battlefield for its single player. However, BC2 was good (and still better than BF3 for destruction, and I greatly miss the AT4).

Though it is hard to believe that BF3 came out at the end of 2011 so we have waited 2 years for a new verison as they were focusing on bringing Medal Of Honor Warfarter to the mix as their one-two punch similar to Activision's one-two with MW and BO each year.
A BC3 with a full storyline like BC1 and BC2 would of been awesome!
Heck, I'm going to play some BC2 now lol lets see if there are still people online
ps/ BC2 Vietnam DLC was freaking awesome!!!

One of the female characters from Bad company 2 is gonna be in BF4. She's the one who says 'you got my back, right?' I forget her name...

Even though im level 50 i still play BC2 almost everyday and there is always many people online. Even though its no BF2 i play it much more than BF3. Infact i do not play BF3 for many reasons. I am looking forward to BF4 though as Commander is a step in the right direction and so is 5 man squads, would be better with 6, would also prefer 5 classes like BF2. Makes the 6 man squad more plausible for the Padawan playing console generation of the BF franchise.

Five man squads were picked because most esport teams are 5 man, It's a shame imo that they didn't do 5 classes as I'd love to see the spec ops class from bf2 although with snipers having c4 and carbines I guess you could play spec ops type again.
