Battlefield Heroes Goes Live

That trailer looked like a saturday morning show

That's the most hilarious game trailer I've ever seen.

Vehicle physics and controls are a little off, they're not quite enjoyable to ride and have weird behaviour to collisions It's like they need more weight to them... I set up the 360 controller for the plane controls and it's still quite fiddly. I hope they'll improve that aspect at some point, but currently I'm having a lot of fun as mostly infantry, my commando is lvl 8! I prefer smaller matches. It's a fun game after all.

@damn: the other vid was showing exploits and such, that's what I meant with glitches.

Sounds like Team America.

It is a cool game, addictive, but it seems to lack diversity... so in the long run it will probably get boring. 

I think it's cool that they are offering yet another version of the Battlefield IP.  Here at work, there have been plenty of times where kids wanted to play Battlefield 2, but it was a bit too complicated for them at times...what with the squad mechanic and the commander stuff and whatnot.  This should offer a simpler version of it while still allowing for some form of depth in customization and such.

" After playing more I see the MMO comparisons. Pressing a hotkey to enable stat-boosting skills that have a cooldown sure feels like one :-PNot liking that vid, not into glitch videos. Show a nice full match with good camera direction and win me over :-) "

It's actually funny how many things you could actually do with this game.

That was great!

Now I really want it now!!!!

That could quite possibly be the greatest trailer that I ever saw.

Man that trailer was so 80s lol.

It appears to be around 370–380 MBs in size.

guys any one download the game pleas let me now what the size of the game

I got an error message too.

That video reminds me of pokemon.

If Electronic Arts were to slap this on XBLA or PSN and charge $15 for it, I'd buy it.

I've been in the beta for this since the very start. The game has only ever run once on every PC I've tried it on. A bunch of other people had the same issue. Still happens now that it's gone live. Awesome.

Wow, call me when this and Quake Live work for Mac. Weird, since EA is one of the more apparent Mac supporters with Spore and Sims.

Wow that trailer was really not what I was expecting for this. Can't wait for it to get past beta.

Whatever you get over time, I've only played like twice :-P

I think I saw some people use gear I don't have (with any class) though, but maybe I'm wrong.

Edit: Yeah, there are more weapons, explosives, healing items, and other stuff to buy. I played some more, earned some silver coin thingies, you can buy better (more like different) weapons to suit your playing style. I could equip my commando with one of two new sniper rifles, one firing faster and the other having more recoil but more headshot damage, and I could replace his knife with some pistols, each better at a different distance. I got the latter rifle and a pistol but I hate it so I'll revert to knifing. You can only keep them for like a week or a month if (for a higher price) then you have to buy them again. You can also get new clothes but the free-to-play selections you can buy with game coins is limited, there's a larger variety you have to pay for (yeah, no thanks EA) and they're all just for show from what I see.

I also upgraded my sniping and knifing skills, once each. My knife now does damage over time or something, it's poisoned. Lol. Anyway, fun little chaotic game, its pace is nothing like standard Battlefield honestly.

Anyway, go to the store interface and check it out yourself :-)

" I preffered Alterac Valley due to the NPC aspect which allowed me to still be a useful tank, as I was mostly into PVE. Still, this is Battlefield with a faster pace and more unlockables than previously, not an MMO. Surely players "peak" much faster and it becomes an even playing field? No? "

Errr, what!

Wow that was a god awful trailer.

It's actually not as good as the hype makes it out to be. Try it once and never come back.

I shall give it  a try, but my expectations are low.

That trailer made me seem like I was watching the intro to Pokemon

Just tried it... man it's terrible. It doesn't feel balanced at all.

Its actually rather expensive for a free game last i checked.

Looks fun but I can't shake off how much it just looks like a poor man's TF2. I'm sure its not, I just keep thinking it doesn't look as pretty as TF2. Again, I know thats totally unfair.

I like the Pyro and Spy most.

Installation is less than 400MB actually. Nice little game, I like the commando class. Very nice visuals considering it's made for very, very low specs. They should add a few maps, unlock all the DLC, and put it on the Wii or something, I bet it'd sell. It looks a little like Battalion Wars 2.

It doesn't really feel like a Battlefield game to me, so far, but it's quite nice, chaotic fun.

Loved that intro movie, but since I have Team Fortress 2 I really don't feel like playing this one.

I too lack the ability to find "build" on either FF or IE

EDIT: Ok after trying a few more times and failing I came back here to read "make sure ur logged in" and voila, it works! Thx lil'bombers

It is pretty cool the the game is for free. I'd like to see some console games come out for free like this.

It's not 4gb for sure.  It's probably only a couple of mbs and the installation itself is maybe 1-1.5 gb.

You need to log into the server before doing the installation.

The video is damn catchy.

Dude, Team Fortress 2 might as well be free. It seems like every other weekend they have a 50% off sale for it. Not only that, but they keep giving you free content (wtf?) and you don't have to deal with micro transactions or ads. Plus, if you're a real winner like me, chances are you've milked that 10 dollar purchase of TF2 totally dry.

That being said, I'm excited to try out Battlefield Heroes.

If you're getting the "cannot find build" error, try Internet Explorer. It wouldn't work for me in FF. And yeah... the 4GB addon made me go "woah."

Fun trailer, doesn't beat Miniature Replica Soldier though!

" @Meltbrain said:

" Huh, Firefox thought the Add-on was 4GB for some reason. Weird. Oh well, time to check this out!... Error: Could not find build.Yay! "

Try IE instead.. It seems to be having issues installing on the latest FF I got that too, I thought WTF when I saw 4 Gig "

i kept on getting 1002 errors when trying to play the beta....wonder if its been fixed

Great, now I can't even connect to the game.

God, that trailer was terrible. I'll try the game out though.

I hope it gets a Mac release.

I hope this gets Steam support soon....

that vidoe is fucking sick
