Fatal_Papercut~SPARTA~ Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I am really looking forward to BF3, having played BF2142 for the better part of two years and enjoying every minute of it. I still play games with my former clan-mates (we dissolved as everyone started to burn out on BF2142), but I know they will be buzzing about this one. While BC2 was a more console-oriented, I still think it's a great game. I would love to see what DICE does with the the latest iteration of Frostbyte.

Ebden~SPARTA~ Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 (edited) they cancelledAt least they finally admitted that they cancelled PC1943 Still looking forward to it, but I won't preorder. Lessons learned from 1943 (watching others flail over their lost $15, of course). They had better f'ing include command functions again for tactical play. Edit:-What gives with the hyperlink? I put that later in the sentence, but it bumped to the beginning? Second link (cut and paste for now, the hyperlink is fubar): http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2011/02/03/march-cover-revealed-battlefield-3.aspx It's the game informer's March cover, and it gives me pause. Note the text at the bottom. "DICE sets its sights on Call of Duty" NOO! Shithauled, another twitchy lone wolf game. No way would I suggest a preorder until we learn more about this thing. I'll be dissapointed if COD is their goal, but there's still future soldier on the horizon Edited February 5, 2011 by Ebden~SPARTA~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatal_Papercut~SPARTA~ Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 (edited) ...They had better f'ing include command functions again for tactical play. I am having a difficulty finding the source link for this bit of bad news, but the source was only someone "rumored" to be working on BF3, so take it for what it's worth: Said source indicated that a Commander and a "command screen" (for issuing Commander/Squad Leader orders) would not be included in BF3, due to--what else?--the technical difficulties of implementing such a system on consoles.

NoScream~SPARTA~ Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 So what I like? Using the Bad Company 2 Frostbite 2.0 engine !!! DESTRUCTION + 64 player MP, I'll have some of that, now if they add co-op.... yum... Middle east, Urban, Desert, vehicles, jets, lots of weapons.... 28th FEB - 4th MARCH --- GDC (game developers conference) NOVEMBER 2011 slot release. http://enterbf3.com/ Battlefield 3 will be game of the year, says EA http://www.computerandvideogames.com/289198/news/battlefield-3-will-be-game-of-the-year-says-ea/ Battlefield 3 will feature 64-player multiplayer on PC and 24-players on console. more info. http://www.computerandvideogames.com/287653/news/battlefield-3-details-blow-the-doors-off/ # Concept for BF3 has been in the works for years, waiting on proper tech to seamlessly come together # Frosbite 2.0 is the culmination of this tech, entirely re-written # Lighting sounds neat, one "probe" contains more lighting information than an entire BFBC2 level. # Level destruction is going to be "believable" but basically everything is destructible. # Character animations powered by ANT, what EA Sports uses. # AI characters and multiplayer characters have different animation sets # No more "gliding" animations that look off, animation realism is a focus # Captured their own war audios (bullets, tanks, helicopters, etc) at different distances to ensure realism # Better audio cues for certain actions, more easily able to listen for threats # Plan on better, more immediate post release content # More unlocks than BFBC2 # Dice trying to find a good balance between customization of your character and not having "pink rabbit hat(s)" # 4 classes # Will talk about squads "later" # Looking into a theater mode but can't talk about it # Will have co-op # There will be a kill-cam but it can be turned off # BF3's team is almost twice as big as the team for BFBC2 # They want the pacing of the single player mode to be balanced, with highs and lows. Makes the comparison to a song vs a guitar solo. # Part of the single player mode takes place in Sulaymaniyah - Iraqi Kurdistan. # "F***" will be used often, so M rated for sure # There will be an earthquake in a level. The destruction sounds very impressive. 7 story building collapses, looks very well done # Significant narrative that goes with the SP mode # More than one setting, you're not in the middle east for the whole game # PC version is lead version # Why 64 players for PC only? No complains from the console crowd. # No mod tools at release. Maybe none down the line either. Frosbite 2.0 is complex and mods tools would have to be dumbed down, so does Dice really want to put their time to that or would it be better spent elsewhere? # Original story, not based on Bad Company at all.

MedicSN6 Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 New gameplay footage trailer: Two words: Bad Ass. Thoughts: 1. Horrible QCB tactics that will get you killed. 2. Horrible weapon discipline that will get someone else killed. 3. Take the weapon off full-auto. He went through 3 mags in about 30 seconds. 4. The graphics kick so much ass, it's insane. 5. Don't stand behind that van. 6. I am pre-purchasing as soon as I have the cash. Ladies and gentlemen of Sparta, I think we found a new anchor game. Not really an ArmA2 killer at all. This just looks like it will surpass the awesomeness that is BF:BC2 and COD:BLOPS as far as being our community pull-together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ebden~SPARTA~ Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Pretty pictures. What about content? Apparently BF3 has a single player storyline, a switch from previous BF2, 1942/3, etc. But for MP-no command/tactical functions? Is this really a plain fps like COD?
