Battlefield Heroes was play for free but they made a huge mistake by trying to make into the TF2 of Battlefield, this is more BF2 than anything which is a good thing as other than Desert Combat mod for Battlefield 1942, BF2 is one of the better games of the franchise.

Battlefield Heroes was also browser based that launched game fullscreen, dont see what the problem is?

Not exactly. It had browser integration for launching/updating, but the actual program is an exe that installs to your programs folder.. not some flash/java/html5 game which is what "browser based" implies.

Right and considering its made by the same dev team that made Battlefield Heroes why would they suddenly turn it into a flash/java game?

Browse based just implies that it is configured and launched from a web browser and not launched like a regular game.

^This

It's like Cloud Computing, where the graphics and stuff are delt with on their side and it's streamed to your PC.

All you need is a PC capable of running like... YouTube.

Aren't you bored of BC2 yet? I'm and it's nice to have an alternative.

And even nicer, when you don't have to pay for it.

i was done with it for a while, but then the last patch they fixed pretty much every beef i had with the game and i'm addicted again.

I had no "beef" with the game, so I didn't really cared for the last update. It didn't change for me anything, didn't add new maps, weapons or gameplay modes and as most of my friends already got bored of the game way before me, there was nothing left for me with the game.

Interview with the guy behind it all + game play footage.

IMO, that gameplay looks superb. It looks very PC-centric, which is great -- none some lame knockoff. I love the simplistic HUD, also (I know that's kind of a random comment, but a big pet peeve of mine are overly complicated HUDs).

Without sounding daft, what's the chances of this running on a Revo then? As they do have the ION chipset?

Should definitely be possible. May have to run it at a lower resolution, but I would imagine it would be playable without all the bells and whistles.

    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By eiffel_g · Posted

      Funny, but I didn't had the issue. All PC's at work are Dell and we had the culprit version of Support Assist for about 2 weeks until we got the new one. No problem at all. And for checking you can also use Dell Command Update, no need to search in windows settings. Just check the Upgrade History.

    • Apple's AI smart glasses and Vision headset plans reportedly delayed, again

      By AnalystDan · Posted

      Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

      So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
