GameLight - Battlefield Play4Free

Battlefield Play4Free is out in Open Beta now!

Battlefield Play4Free is EA's response to the hardcore gaming community that Battlefield Heroes did not fulfill.  Free 2 play games were thought to be of a community of casual gamers and thus Battlefield Heroes was more of a cartoonish style shooter rather than something a bit more realistic.  What the developers realized was that a lot of free 2 play games were played by Hard core gamers when they were taking a break from their usual games, and thus EA decided to bring a free 2 play game that suits those Hard Core gamers.  It follows the same structure of Battlefield Heroes where the main portion of the game is free while extra weapons, boost items, and attire can be purchased with real money.  From what I heard, it has many elements of Battlefield: Bad Company 2 (without the destructible environments) along with the maps of Battlefield 2.  There are four classes to choose from: Assault, Medic, Engineer, and Recon.  I'm probably going to go with medic because I can't stand having a team full of useless healers that care more about killing than healing (happens in every game that has a healer of some sort).

It's pretty easy to start playing:
-Make an Electronic Arts account (for free)
-Make your soldier (Assault, Medic, Engineer, Recon)
-Download (It's 1 GB worth of Hard Drive space)

Have fun!
