Major SWBF3 News!

Post by SG-17 »

I have a program called GsList that allows me to see the servers for every game run by GameSpy so I can basically see the lobbies for them. Like I used it to see what servers were online and how many players were in them for SWBF2.
I decided to check it out today and to my surprise I find this:

When I click on them no servers show up, but those lobbies were not there a month ago. This looks increadibly promising. You can get GsList here if you want to see for yourself. http://aluigi.altervista.org/papers.htm#gslist
Use the GSListWeb executable.
Oh BTW the reason there is no Xbox stuff on there is because Microsoft doesn't allow GameSpy to host lobbies for games over Live. They do it themselves.

You ought to tip that in to some bigger sites (Kotaku et. al.). I don't know specifically how much more water something like this holds than a registry on a sales database, though - it's almost certain that any developer wouldn't use GameSpy to run test builds early on, and since there's been no news of the game I can't imagine them being late enough in the dev cycle to even warrant testing on a third-party server.

Yay, more pointless speculation not confirmed by Lucasarts.

this is all i'm going to add:

BF3 is dead. Foever. They are not going to make it. No matter what news you hear, read, or site you go to.

No, your wrong. This modding community is essentially BF3, with us Battlefront is never dead. It will live on in good times or bad, we must fight to the end!


Now I have to go and clear the tears out of my eyes.

Well said buddy, well said.

Maybe those Battlefront 3 builds are leaked alphas or something.

No, im not. If BF3 does come out it will be shocking. Its been tossed around for years now. Lucasarts would of said something by now.

BF3, if it ever comes out = BF2 but using unreal engine and better graphics, which modders have already started doing.... so yeah, they will need radically big changes for it to sell, or just put CoD in the name.... *rushes off to sell the idea of CoD: Galactic Conflict to LA and IW*

not saying it's fake per definition, but anyone with a computer, printer and (lousy) camera can make a picture of a list like that.

Star Wars Jedi Knight III? Now that's new, and does add quite a liability.....

(not to mention the realism of SWTOR being released this year, hmm, too quick?)

^This. The way I see it, the chances of a BF3 bring released are pretty much the same as another Jedi Knight game being released, which is slim to none.

If that is a real list, it's not a list of "to-be-released-in-2010." That would be a lineup for presentation at E3, which is regularly used to introduce games slated for release in future years.

Y'know, after seeing a Duke Nukem game on the list, I'm even more skeptical about it's authenticity.
