Just had the most epic moment and wish I recorded it now.. Got hit while in a jet and was going down, so I just jumped out like normal... Little did I know the flaming fireball went straight in to an heli and I got a double kill! :D
 
I unlocked the Javlin the other day but it doesn't seem to work! I pull it out and right click to aim at a tank or whatever and it never locks on! I stand there for ages waiting for it and get bored playing 'look at the tank'... What am i doing wrong?!?!

Battlefield 3 is to get three themed downloadable expansions, starting in June. Like first add-on Back to Karkand, they will offer new weapons and in some cases vehicles to be used across the entire game, as well as new multiplayer maps.

In addition, console players are to get a rent-a-server programme that will allow them to run dedicated game servers customised to their own rules and preferences, just like their PC brethren. This is a first for any console shooter.

June's add-on pack is called Close Quarters and it's focused on up-close-and-personal indoor infantry combat with verticality to the map designs. It will be released one week early on PS3, and includes 10 new weapons and four new maps.

It's described as "hectic and intense". The map demonstrated at EA's GDC event was the interior of a swish-looking office block called Ziba Tower, with lots of glass to shatter.

The following add-on will be called Armored Kill. With a focus on tank combat, it will offer the Battlefield series' biggest map ever and one new drivable vehicle for use in the third game. It has no release date yet.

The final add-on will be End Game, about which nothing is known, and which is apparently still a closely guarded secret within developer DICE.

We'll have more info on Close Quarters soon.

"hectic and intense"... this aint COD
 
The office map sounds good, need screenshots. It's been a while since I last enjoyed office battles (CSS).

No room for my SV98 though by the sounds fo it, reliance on claymore.....no complaints from me then :p

Need someone with a SOFLAM really to make it work well.

I've always noticed it was a bit hit n miss with locking onto targets without a SOFLAM
 
Battlefield 3: Close Quarters was announced at an EA event last night for this upcoming June, the first major paid piece of DLC for the game since last December's "Back to Karkand." The expansion includes four maps, 10 weapons and no vehicles -- it's about close quarters, after all.

Scumbag DICE.
 
3 expansions good. I hope they aren't more than a fiver each though! :)

People complaining about Close Quarters well there is also Armored Kill with the "biggest Battlefield map ever" :)

I thought the SOFLAM was so you can use it without line of sight? Surely it should still work without it? I always seem to get hit by it consistantly whenever I'm in a tank :( and I was so looking forward to unlocking it to get my revenge
