David Goldfarb, director of Bad Company 2, has recently shared a snippet of his script for a possible installment of Bad Company 3. The script, found among his documents, includes references to Russian influence in American politics, a topic of growing relevance. Goldfarb highlights a scene involving Haggard, a beloved character and source of comic relief in the game, who interacts with a young thief and his parrot that mimics phrases, reflecting the franchise’s characteristic tone and leaving us eager to play this title; a desire we will have to swallow because it will not happen.
Maybe someday…
The ending of Bad Company 2 left players with great intrigue, as it suggests the Russian invasion of Alaska. Goldfarb has confirmed that his idea for Bad Company 3 imagines a Russian occupation in that state, suggesting that the original team could reunite for a special mission. However, he clarified that he never considered officially developing a third title in the series, and that he wrote the script on his own, leading him to conclude that it is unlikely he will participate in a future project.
The interest in Bad Company 3 resonates among fans of the series, especially considering the lack of significant releases in the Battlefield franchise in recent years. While the release of Battlefield 6 is anticipated, the recent ten-second teaser has left followers wanting more content. With the possibility of a story that continues after a cliffhanger in the previous game, many hope that this franchise will somehow rise again.
Goldfarb, for his part, currently leads his own studio, The Outsiders, and his latest project was the acclaimed rhythmic FPS Metal: Hellsinger. The revelation of his script for Bad Company 3, although it involves rumors, raises intriguing questions about the future of this beloved shooter franchise.
