You guys really wanna see 17 minutes of MP?
Holy boredom.

I'd rather see 1 minute of MP than 17 of SP.
Not that I'm complaining about the SP reveal, anybody who expected otherwise is fooling themselves.

Um, that sounds pretty fucking perfect actually.
Uh I would love every minute of this.
I'd rather see a minute of MP.

Here's my fear: some fool who is really bad at the game that makes you cringe while watching.
You know the guy I'm talking about.

What if halfway through this serious business CoD scriptedness, you start hearing bickering in the background "no don't touch that lever" and suddenly a loud *THUNK* reverberates as the wall Irish and his BF dudebros are standing in front of slowly starts tipping over, flattening them all, to reveal a tank having reversed into the wall. Sarge says: "God damn it Haggard..."
Cut to this and various humor and open-ishworld shenanigans from there.

I know the trailer was leaked, and the quality was eh, but if you missed it, check out some (low quality) screenshots right here.

As perfect as watching grass grow. There's a map and 2 teams are shooting each other, amazing.
Because MP is so consequential lol

I bet you just can't wait to see if World of Warcraft 2 has a singleplayer mode...
Did you miss the "BF Moments" BC2 trailers? They were pretty friggin' cool. "A map and 2 teams shooting each other, yawn" post would be more accurate if we were talking about CoD.
Oh, you're trolling. Gotcha.

Yeah, you're right. The scripted moments in the campaign are going to so much more exciting. I might as well pop in a Michael Bay war flick.
I think it's better than a 1 minute trailer that may not represent the actual quality.
But at least because they're scripted there'll be more spectacle, better visuals, a better insight in to the tech, characters, narrative and graphics etc.

I just wanna see 17 minutes of next gen gameplay. Show me what this new hardware can offer in terms of physics, immersion, fidelity.

lol 17 minutes of MP does NOT work for a press event. You guys need to get out of the gamer mindset and into the media mindset. 17 minutes of straight multiplayer would be boring for anyone who isn't familiar with the BF games.
Presentations like this are always SP because SP works best for them. They're structured for it both narratively and in their pacing

the whole purpose of the trailer is to display the improved graphics engine and to build hype. so it makes more sense to show SP gameplay. You guys can get your MP fix later. sheesh.
Aren't most people more interested in the MP thou?
But it's probably going to be single player, because there's a reason they release beta's for multilayer, they are usually not ready to show off until close to launch.
No. Don't get me wrong, I'll take those 17 minutes of MP gameplay and likely enjoy it, but for me it's not as much of a show case of what next gen has to offer, since MP visuals are usually always slightly downgraded from the single player component, and more importantly, a lesser showcase of the engine/tech capabilities. That and from an entertainment and narrative, spectacle and atmosphere standpoint, it just won't be nearly as engrossing.

Why would I be joking? I don't give two cents about MP.

A video of this length is going to be narrated, so that's a plus I suppose. They might mention multiplayer details.
Were the leaked images posted? Gonna post again anyway. Gameplay will be SP obviously judging by these and it looks fantastic
Third Image:
Possible custom stocks? That looks like a Mk46 Mod0 with M4 Buttstock

You're in the wrong thread. This is the BF4 one.

Had over 650 hours in BC2, I was so unbelievably hyped for BF3. I hated it, probably the most disappointing game of all time for me. I have no faith that EA/DICE will be able to turn the ship around. And why would they? BF3 was a huge success afaik.
RIP BF
I wouldn't expect anything else from someone who enjoys MMA. Certified bad taste through and through.

It's very likely. DICE seems to have picked up some things from MoH with what they did in MP customization.
Sorry but as much as I love MP. I do give a single fuck (maybe more) about the SP

Add me to the list. SP is very important for me, even in games like COD or BF. In-fact, these days I find myself playing online less and less.
Where's this report? Cause if this is true god damn I will be so happy.
I love MP, but I love SP so so so so so much more
Normally nobody would be holding on to their fucks tighter than me, but those explosions... I mean, damn!
Can't wait to see the SP now.

IIRC, yes.

Ok, but this is Battlefield...
Fair enough, but what you would like to see is a next gen show case, whereas what I would like to see is essentially the game.
I'm perplexed at how many people are looking forward to seeing single player gameplay. This is Battlefield. The single player is like a disgusting dip with that comes with your food and gets thrown away.

I've read some fucked up things in OT. Never would I thought they'd all be trumped by something in Gaming.
