Be nice if we had some maps that transitioned from daytime to night as you're playing them.

I know this has been said before, but how do we activate our BETA MoH key?

Far as i know ea have it on record on your account that you have moh, the beta key is probably sent to you or put into your ea account when the time is close.

Does everyone with MoH qualify for beta?

Ahh right

That's a shame

MP is probably the most anticipated section of the game

I've seen a few bits of gameplay - at the moment, it looks amazing :eek:

But the good graphics, and the epic gameplay moments - It just reminds me of how people got syked for Crysis and got massively disappointed...

I hope they deliver...

Shouod do as im near sure the limited edition with beta access was the standard edition.

I met this dude at the BAFTA Game Awards last night, very nice guy. I told him I loved Battlefield, and he said they loved their fans. That was pretty much the extent of the conversation.

LOL must have been a long 20mins when you only had to talk to him for 2. Cough Cough

Anyway I was very late to the party with BF2 (never had interested in 'solider shooters' after Quake 3) and it was only playing on BF1943 that I got into the BF mold, Ive enjoyed what Ive played on BC2 but always thought it was very much the lite version of BF.

So what do I have to look forward to in BF3 - Im not easily impressed and have to admit the setting/environment has never been that interesting to me - Im far more interested in the squad nature and teamplay thats involved/required.

I love scripted SP games but I am dying to know whether they can maintain those animations online.

Ah. Well he asked me what rank I was in BFBC2, and I lied, because I couldn't remember, so I just said "the top one". He probably thought I was a bit of a tit.

imho, Dice and Valve are much a like, love their fans, and listen to their ideas.

Treyarch seem to think that their engine (the basis of which is over a decade old) can do the same things as Frostbite 2 via updating it.

I want to punch myself in the face after watching this...

titaniumx3 · 18 Mar 2011 at 23:29

Honestly suprised by what the sound dude says, exactly the opposite of what I was expecting him to say. Less like movies and more like a documentary certainly sounds intriguing.

I thought BC2 audio was certainly impressive, but needed refinining which is precisely what this guys is saying.

Good stuff!

love the zorg comment on youtube haha

Evilsod · 19 Mar 2011 at 10:12

Does anyone sometimes get the impression that all these CoD vs BF 'bitchy' comments are straight out of the world of Wrestling? Seriously, its as if they're just building up to a huge wrestling match with lots of smack talk before the real 'action' starts and lots of fake punches get thrown around.

Rollocks, as if that tired old Dx9 engine can be as good as one built from the ground up to take advantage of all the DX11 features as well as building destruction.
