Hello soldiers, yes, you may have seen this over at BFVFiles already, but I decided that it was so important that I would post it here! Dice has decided to CUT production of Battlefield Vietnam! This game has only been out for a week now, and its already done? Read the news article that relates to the subject
I found this news on the dutch Dice Forum:

We have heard the news today, and am asking for your help. We need to start a petition to Electronics Arts stating that the futhur development of BattleField: Vietnam would be worth the growing expense. Here is the section in the news we recieved in the mail:

Quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We have talked it over with our Accountant division, and after a large amount of research, and a cost-benifit analysis, we have come to the conclusion that funding the continuing development of BattleField: Vietnam through a series of patches and expansions is not worth the considerable amout of capital needed. Therefore we cannot condone the further development of this title, and request you stop spending recources on it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It continues to say:

Quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We believe that the current release is 100% complete, and completly bug-free. We feel that you should move ahead to the next title in the BattleField Series, as well as wrapping up development of the console versions, so we may ship them, and begin turning a profit.

The same happened to Republic: The Revolution really. The devs just didn't bother patching it after release, and basically all but forgot about it.

Called a "community." Mod teams will eventually better the game, just sad that the publisher has forced it down this route.

i think console bf or bf:v would b awsome. aside from the faxct their would be no mods, it would be cool

very little to no lag, and all the settings would be on high.
