EA buys Battlelog developer

4.6

Electronic Arts has acquired Battlelog developer ESN. Battlelog is Battlefield 3's stat-tracking and social system behind the game on PC, while on consoles it... you know, still not entirely sure what the point was. Something extraneous to sign up for?

"We couldn't be more excited about this opportunity and the team is looking forward to focus all of its energy on DICE, Battlelog and the Battlefield series," ESN wrote in its announcement of the deal. "As we're teaming up with EA and DICE, we are looking for more talented developers and designers to join our studio and help create some of the best online game services out there."

EA's upcoming shooter Medal of Honor: Warfighter will also support Battlelog.

Pipes Is this like Elite?
If it is I doubt I will be getting this...

It's 110% free.

It's just a way to see how you can improve and track your stats if you care about any of that stuff.

BF Premium was paid, but it was just for guns, maps, vehicles, ect, and didn't include anything to add on to battlelog.

I might actually get it then...

WreckTuhm It kind of sounds like elite for cod?

I agree.

I hated elite so i probably won't be getting this.

Its free...
There is no reason to at least try it out.

I'm not taking any chances on wasting my money again.
