Battlefield Heroes Download PC

Battlefield Heroes was a 2009 third-person shooter video game developed by EA DICE initially and further developed by Easy Studios, published by Electronic Arts for Microsoft Windows. Battlefield Heroes was less demanding on computer specifications than the previous games of the series to increase the audience base. In addition, the game matched players of similar levels together for fairer play.

Heroes was the first Battlefield game to be made under Electronic Arts' new "Play 4 Free" model, which saw the game released for free with revenue generated from advertising and micropayments. Advertisements appeared on the website and the 'front-end' of the game although none appeared while playing, while micropayments were able to be made for additional items to customize the appearance of players' avatars or to buy stronger weapons. Furthermore, purchasable Play 4 Free Funds (formerly known as Battlefunds) were usable for redeeming rate boosts to experience points along with other items.

Battlefield Heroes, along with other EA free-to-play titles Battlefield Play4Free, Need for Speed: World, and FIFA World, went offline on 14 July 2015.

Gameplay

Battlefield Heroes featured a modified conquest mode providing each team 50 lives and eventually one flag at the start of the round. Killing enemies and holding more flags than the opposing army would progressively reduce their number of lives. The game also featured matchmaking, to keep players of the same level together. Developers of the game had talked about levels going as high as 40 or 50, although the level cap never rose higher than 30. The two armies were called the National Army (possessing a red base color flag) and the Royal Army (possessing a blue base color flag). The game was third-person only, but senior producer Ben Cousins had stated if first-person is really wanted, it may have been added in at a later date. Spawn times were 5 seconds (compared to the 15 seconds of previous Battlefield games, except for the map "Midnight Mayhem."), allowing for less waiting and more action. Players did not pick spawn points since the game had an "Intelligent Spawn System" putting players closest to the nearest battle. Sometimes the player would be parachuted behind enemy lines. There was also a new mode called "Conquest V2." The goal of this mode was to take hold of a rocket for 5 minutes.
