DICE is very familiar with the concept of competition on the FPS battlefield. They know when it comes to releasing their product that the executives at Electronic Arts are going to gauge their success in comparison to that of Modern Warfare 2. It’s an obvious goal that anyone could see from any basic business standpoint.

However, DICE’s Patrick Bach believes that the two aren’t even remotely close to the same game and that they’re just trying to deliver a high quality product on both the single and multiplayer aspects of gaming.

“To me it’s not beating, it’s showing that you can do things differently and to a high quality while delivering both a single-player and multiplayer game.

“Please go ahead and compare us but please don’t see it as the same game because we’re not trying to be that game. We’re doing Battlefield things here, we’re trying to do the game that we want to do.”

It’s good to know that the developers behind the Battlefield franchise are more focus on bringing gamers a quality product rather than trying to compete on the marketplace. I think that the sales portion of a video game should be left to the corporate mongrels and the developers should focus on just that — quality.

I can’t wait to check out Battlefield Bad Company 2 this March.
