I hope the aircraft mechanics are exactly like BF 1943...pure sex. No more endless spam from the Apache in this game.

The incremental release of a clone shooter = not a watershed. It looks exactly the same as all the other battlefield games that came before it. Now that doesn't mean it cant be good, but im just saying its way over hyped.


Not as overhyped as every single call of duty sense cod 4 lol.

Also there are a lot of different stuff they are approaching, but we wanted a good sequal too Battlefield 2 not a cod clone or anything if we wanted the same shooter over and over we'd get that. This is actually going to be good (this is the first true successor in a battlefield game to have destructible environments no other shooters do that I mean look at cod its seriously the same game over and over for the past 5 years).

At least bf3 is adding stuff or improving something. I mean too each his own but I don't see this game as being over hyped specially after all the hyping call of duty gets ^^.


I also think every COD is way over hyped, hell ill even say every console shooter. But this is coming from someone that cant really tell the difference between battlefield and COD. I mean the last COD game i liked was COD 2. Red Faction and its sequels had better destructible environments then anything else I have ever seen. I hope its as good as you guys want it to be. Hell I hope its good enough to win me over, which will have to be fucking amazing, but it just looks like another generic shooter to me. Yeah the graphics are pretty, but not as good as unreal 4 is shaping up to be(ships 2012, so its prob a half year later then bf3 admittedly). The lighting does look pretty fucking good, but the texturing and modeling still looks substandard to me.

What's the recommended hardware requirements for BF3? I heard that BFBC2 required a good processor because it didn't really take advantage of the computer's graphic card (with it being a console port) but with BF3 being apparently(?) built for PC then ported to console does that mean anything different?

Also is there a commander mode in BFBC2?

The lack of commander mode is kind of disappointing now that I think about it because in BF2 there were so many epic "teamwork" moments thanks to the commander working (talking directly to squad leaders) with the team. As long as they allow better communication between the entire team (in BF2, voice chat was limited to squads or the commanders to squad leaders) then the lack of a commander mode may not be so bad.

Finally I do know being a commander was kind of dull most of the time (especially if the team was not listening) but the times when the commander and the team worked together really made up for it (plus there were plenty of r"achievements" for being a commander like the medals and badges).

With BC2 i can barely play it on low at 1280x720 on my E6600, 4gb ram + 9800gtx (something i can play SC2 on low 1920x1080 just fine, unless i want to play 4v4 or something. then it lags during larger battles.

i'm guessing BF3 will be more taxing on systems, to be honest i can't wait to upgrade to an i5 2500k or something.
Patience is bitter, but it bears sweet fruit.

really? wow I can max BC2 out with my gtx 260 16 core, 4 gigs of DDR2 ram, Intel quad Q8400 2.66. And i'm running it at 1920 by 1200.

that seems weird too me that your system can barely run BC2 on low :o.

I'm curious, have you ever played any Battlefield games before? This will be the first major battlefield game to have a single player and honestly won't be that amazing, Battlefield has and will probably always be a more multiplayer focused game for people who get the game.

if you have never played a battlefield game, play battlefield 2, if you don't like it then you probably won't like battlefield 3 as the multiplayer is going to be the same for the most part from what I have read except 3 less classes, and no commander mode.
When I think of something else, something will go here

If this game is any good (like bf1942 or bf2), you'll want this on pc. No 64 man servers for console, the game would just feel like a generic cod shitter with such small games.

Right. I'm getting this game.

*Looks at calendar*



Games are getting more pre-release hype than movies these days. -_- But it looks so pretty. And it might/should have multiplayer with more depth than a petri dish.

A game is overhyped the moment PC gamers start to call it "the last bastion of PC gaming," which the hardcore bunch is doing this very moment, after being disappointed with Crysis 2.

I got to give it to the marketing team of both DICE and EA, it is the second game whose success is totally dependant on the disappointment for a previous overhyped AAA title (BC2 was an answer to MW2 and BF3 an answer to Crysis 2). Brilliant marketing if you ask me!

Im curious if this game could be used as a competitive FPS. I doubt it has just to the past games haven't really been used either. Im waiting for a new FPS to rock the esports world.

If they dont have commander mode I am going to be sad, it was such a great game mechanic, but just needed some tweaking.

Guys, if he wants to get it for his PS3, then let him.

Direct2Drive has a 25% off coupon on orders over $19.99 and this INCLUDES BF3 for preorder, so it takes off $14.99

Its the fact that its still a waste getting the ps3 over the PC.

PC has better graphics, 32 vs 32. Those 2 things right there are huge. I mean on PS3 multiplayer is 12 vs 12 or something lame? I mean thats going to make bf3 for consoles not feel like a battlefield game imo. Maps will be smaller and everything. But too each his own, if he wants to miss out on what makes battlefield, well battlefield then get the ps3 version not going to affect me.
