The BF 2042 that could have been. 2042 Art reveals everything once looked better

The Dice twitter account post this a while ago. I could not believe my eyes. Everything looks better in the Artwork (well these and prototype renders). They had it all there on paper. 

Edit: Topic is a bit misleading. Im not assuming these wont get used at some point. But from the Art to actual screen shots, it seems top ones are early design and as we go on they are final. Plus the the whole original BF plain soldier look doesn't really mesh with the Specialists now. I do like the female design (2nd) hope this is maybe the new specialists coming next year?

This:



Instead Grandma could have looked bad * like this:



This is exactly how i want my generic future Soldier to look like. I cannot believe they screwed this up:



Another amazing design with some character but not goofy:



Also level wise, I wish areas would look like this: Notice the buildings are on fire. 




Some of these are art renders, some are ingame shots.

    @Tank2042ManNo. Im tired of these forum police trolls putting words into my mouth. The topic wasn't meant to slander the game, I just wanted to share some of the better art than the actual game has. Also - im not your buddy.

    @Buzzfunk - "could have been" is a modal perfect. The use of "could," in particular, suggests a past possibility that is no longer available.

    In this sense, they are not "forum police trolls;" they are simply the people who processed your meaning correctly. If you didn't intend that meaning, then that's your problem.
  • Wait, whaaaaaat! Game concept art that looks better than the final product. OMG, I can't believe that any game developer would do this,  or that there could be any reason for this. HOW DARE THEY! 

    *, concept are is exactly that, the upper most dream if you had infinite money and time and tech. Run along back to Fortnight or COD. 

  • We are getting 4 new specialists well those of us the bought the Ultimate version.

    TBH i'm not that bothered about specialist because i'm old skool and would prefer classes back.

    I hope this game matures well and doesn't become manure instead. ^^
