so
well
when you get to the the where we are now like the last shivering
two weeks before the games can tell you can imagine what kind of tension that
will bring to the team members
all the passion comes to this Epicor send Owen
it actually goes out to the to the game is to the consumers lar
the moral
the long wait then it's super exciting and his balls have been the
helluva ride on a cool autumn day in Stockholm Sweden
the employees at Digital Illusions creative entertainment
or dice a video game company here are preparing for one of the most important
days
up their professional careers then
for the last two years over 200 programmers designers and others
have been building the next generation a first person shooter
a game called battlefield 4 sites
the beautiful landscape the setting has as
the wind changes the leaves starts flying around trees
gets knocked over the helicopters and bring up the dust all around
its which one and Marcin battlefield that we never been able to do before
the company says that the game
which competes directly against the franchise Call of Duty
achieves in unprecedented level reality
in detail
it's a game of war which may seem strange because well
this is Sweden I think in general it look at sweetness a country where quite
pacifists we haven't been been war for a very long time
in Jena Swedes are very nice and we try to be buried the from ethnic when it
comes to conflicts
but in spite of the country's pacifist leanings battlefield Executive Producer
Patrick Bach
believe Sweden is actually the ideal place for a video game company
even one focused on war that we have the
big heritage Sean engineering the
we have a lot of focus on the on the Scandinavian the sign in
style I we love story telling we have all this
classic fairy tales we have in Sweden and then of course we have long winters
which is perfect for making games in fact mister bach himself did military
service as a young Swede over twenty years ago
when it was mandatory the only thing I learned was that is really cold to sleep
out in force during winter
the goodbye once the battlefield
no worse than most other first-person shooters with the level of realism
is impressive the company says it looks not to the military but the Hollywood
much in its inspiration using
you like a real guns real vehicles be
we want to take the like this could be real much like a
*** movie or James Bond movie it's fiction but it feels
like this could happen days which is owned by the American video game company
Electronic Arts
is a place of pride and perks there is a kitchen serving hot fresh meals
a game room and also a gym and then there's the view of Stockholm
with you see here is gonna bust on its old town all the
Stockholm and then on our other side this is actually with the stock on
the are complied with the Stars and then we if you head out
that's where you go into the beautiful the lol the island's
out in the article I go it may not be a coincidence that the name of the company
is dice
as more people consume games on iPad and mobile devices
it's a big gamble to spend many millions of dollars on a single title
even in industry said to be worth $75 billion dollars
it's a lot of money it's a lotta lotta money a so from that perspective is
definitely high risk because
you know what happened when the games come tell will people like it will
people buy at the Setai
it's definitely can be compared to the movie industry
the but the company is confident that the investment that has gone into
battlefield 4 will make it a hit
among gamers and with both Microsoft and Sony
soon release a new consoles fresh energy
will be injected into the high and video game market we r
created an entertainment in the future where we go it's not
platform locked so actually you know
naysayers go away I actually look at the future in a very very bright way
