Potential Hints At Battlefield's Future - BF2143

36 Comments
Back to Karkand was just recently released with wide praise, but what's next? Battlefield 3 is set to have 3x the DLC as Bad Company 2 (21 total) and in a press conference during a press conference, EA's Frank D. Gibeau stated that "the next 6 months is to have a very robust set of expansion packs." Recently users have been spotting potential hints towards more DLC.

New York City (default shipping labels with a shipping address of NYC have been spotted by user Potterike) is rumored to be the set of future Battlefield 3 content, but what about a sequel to BF1943?

Battlefield 3 gamer, didiMau has found the numbers "2143" printed on a crate on Wake Island.

BF2143 reference?


To the average person some numbers like the above don't mean much, but DICE has performed a similar move before when hinting at BF2142 by placing the numbers "2142" on a car license plate. BF2143 has been a lightly discussed topic by gamers on various forums, but Battlefield 3 came out and the discussion quieted, so maybe DICE is hinting at the next big installment for the franchise.

I've played BF 1943, bad company 2, and BF3. Now a future style BATTLEFIELD game on modern day video game systems would be an awesome amount of awesome. spacer

Battlefield 2142 with the Frostbite 2 engine would be a perfect fit. Reason why is that even though the titans were awesome in BF2142, the Refractor 2 engine was never really designed for a huge moving object with both an inside and outside area. The same could be said for the ships in 1942. They worked but there was a lot of lag when trying to move around them while they were moving. Frostbite on the other hand is extremely scalable that the Titans would fit perfectly and also add in a lot more destruction to them. Just imagine the titan falling apart as you run to get out before it explodes.

I totally thought they'd do this. Not to grill them or anything, but they've found it's either more profitable or more efficient to lump a potential sequel BF game as DLC into another Bf game lately. I'm sure you all thought the same.

I think they believe releasing Vietnam or 2143 as a full game wouldn't sell much, so by releasing it as DLC, I dunno, more people will buy it or something.

But yes, there will definitely be a 2143 in BF3s future. Its' awesome, because I always wanted to play 2143. I hope they bring back Titan mode. That would be *manly angelic voice*[i]Awwesoooooome*[/i]!

This is just an easter egg, or some random stuff that Dice makes. I've found Acta non verba crates in Bad company 2.

I believe this game will not become true, and like HardcoreHobo said, it wouldn't sell much.

But would I wanna see Titans in Frostbite 2? HELL YEAH
