Battlefield 3 Lead: You don’t kill Call of Duty by trying to be CoD – New Details
Alan Kertz, the design lead of Battlefield 3 has been interacting with the community quiet a bit since the game got announced. What’s his chosen medium of communication? Twitter ofcourse.
The man disclosed a host of brief yet important details regarding their upcoming shooter and also answered how they plan to beat Call of Duty with Battlefield 3.
When asked how they plan to beat CoD and if they are going to take any cues from it by a fan, the man said:
You don’t kill COD by trying to be COD. You kill COD by making a better shooter.
