“When you talk, we listen, and when we heard that the Battlefield community wanted a new night map, we set out to make this idea a reality. It’ll be coming in Battlefield 4 Night Operations, hitting the Battlefield in September 2015.” That’s how the team at EA announced a brand new DLC coming to Battlefield 4. Per the official website, Night Operations features a new map, adjusted gameplay, and more. Per the announcement, the new DLC about more than making a simple map: “We quickly realized there was more to it than just making a pretty map. It would need to feature a new sound landscape, destructible lights, and a different sort of gameplay. This lead to us focusing on the creation of Zavod: Graveyard Shift, based on Zavod 311, a new map that brings with it several improvements and tweaks to allow for more stealthy and tactical gameplay. We touched things like passive/active spotting to make it easier to flank your opponent. We’ve improved the sound system so you can pinpoint

Speaking to Gamesindustry.biz, DICE producer David Sirland has said that the studio is aware how they have lost the trust of some of their players following the difficult launch of Battlefield 4 last year. Sirland admitted that the franchise brand had been damaged by the issues that stopped many players enjoying the game and that they were doing everything they could to make sure that there would be no repeat in the future. “I can absolutely say that we lost trust in the game’s launch and the early parts of the year,” Sirland said. “We still probably have a lot of players who won’t trust us to deliver a stable launch or a stable game. I don’t want to say anything because I want to do. I want them to look at what we’re doing and what we are going to do and that would be my answer. I think we have to do things to get them to trust us, not say things to get them to trust us.

Visceral Games, the developer behind games the hit series Dead Space, has stated that it is working hard to ensure that Battlefield: Hardline does not repeat the problems that plagued Battlefield 4 at launch. Speaking in an interview with Game Revolution at the Tokyo Game Show, creative director Ian Milham went into detail about the steps the studio is taking to make sure that the game works as intended at launch. “What you’re basically asking is, ‘Is you’re game going to work?’ and the answer is yes, it’s gonna work. We actually started on this more than a year before Battlefield 4 came out. We’ve been working with the DICE guys for a long time; some of our engineering work is actually in Battlefield 4 and things they’ve been doing since then. It’s in pretty great shape now and all that work is gonna come into what we’re doing.” “We already had one very successful beta,” added Milham.  “We’re going to have another beta on every platform we ship on.

Geoff Keighley has revealed via Twitter that EA will be showing off at least six brand new games to the world. The press conference will be streamed live across Twitch, Spike TV and on the official EA website on June 9, allowing those not attending to get a glimpse of the publisher’s upcoming titles.
