Yes, it is still in the beta stages. They most likely will not release it till late summer.

Its taking too long.. the hype is dying. Also EA wont release as many games this years they announces since the economy crash. Well its for the best i guess. I just hope this game will still be free when it releases.

I got an EA Betafield Heroes email now, just to tell me nothing, they will do some testing in and maybe realise something February, wow how exciting.... NOT.
Another game down the drain, lets hope it do not get any PB support, seriously....

EA had to lay off over a thousand people, but so far the project doesn't seem to have been axed.

My writing so i guess that goes to me, I mean exactly that, yet another poor coded game that get tossed to EB to correct all its flaws and bugs for hackers to abuse.
And that is more or less what i wrote as well ;)

Looking at the latest news about BF 1943 it would appear that a lot of the things implimented in Heroes have been taken to 1943. Maybe Heroes wasn't a waste of development money after all!

I was a big fan of Heroes during the Beta stage but got bored of it very quickly. I think EA were hoping that it would be a popular 'for an hour or so's fun'. However, if you have a large group of friends that like to play alongside each other then it's not for you, or at least not if stays in the same format as the beta test. You are placed on a random server according to your skill level and there is no auto balance facility! Often people are ending up on a server with 7v1 or worse.

To be fair, I haven't played the latest Beta (who'd have thought there'd be two betas!) so I can't say what changes have been made. Personally I think I'll wait for 1943 to arrive as it's already in some advanced stages and for only £12 via download that's a bargain!

Well, Good thing. Im sure just like any other game, there will be just as many hackers in
Bf Heroes.

I'm still waiting for it to be released! :o

I hope they left out the advertisements system :D Unless 1943 is going to be free also?

2142 wasn't free, and it had advertisements.

Knowing EA, it'll probably have some :rolleyes:

Could have sworn they scrapped the system before it went live in BF2142. Don't know wth they thinking anyways.. just cuz some poster can be found in a game, not making me go buy a soda or whatever crap they trying to sell.. Oh that's right, they aren't thinking.. they just see the $$$ come in. :D

fragger , it s a game for children IMO .

graphics are good , gameplay is a bit bland

tanks & jeeps move right along ; and I did manage to jump into a plane for a few seconds........ before crashing out-of-bounds


No , I don't think I will be returning to that particular realm in the gaming world


I'll rate it a 3 out of 5 stars for graphics

I just got accepted into the beta, I'll report back when I've played it tomorrow ;)

Edit:

Played it for roughly an hour, my first impression:

Nothing too serious, just a simple and still fun, 3rd person shooter.
