What happend with Battlefield 1943 for the PC? It has been delayed for over 2 years already. Now they announced a new game they are working on, which is called "Battlefield: Play4Free".
It obviously looks like BF2 (Karkand anyone?) probably on the Frostbite engine 2.0.
Next to that they are working on Battlefield 3. Don't forget about the bugfixing for MoH and BC2.
EA = more buggy games in shorter time - more money.
Its a remake of BF2 only free, but with micro transactions (like buying certain perks, ranks or upgrades). The game will incorporate aspects of Bad Company 2 (weapons, and few other things) but I don't think it's using the frostbite 2.0 engine it's probably just the BF2 engine upped a bit with a few visuals tweaks.
The patch deal yea I agree with you, but I am also wondering how much the engine (frostbite 1.5), steam, and etc., all play into releasing a patch.
