Those DLC maps sound good alright! Can't want to get stuck into those with 32v32

Looking forward to Gulf of Oman, suppose Karkand might be worth a look with the destructible environments now, never like it much in BF2, seems to be tons of areas dedicated solely to grenade spam.

I'm sure Oasis is from Bad Company 1.

Yeah it is. So is Harvest Day i think.

Remember watching someone on Defenders. After the Attackers pushed up they walked through into the first base and took over the Artillery and started raping them with it. Most people were completely oblivious, a few tried to rush back in vehicles and wound up dead from the helicopter. Was pretty funny but completely overpowered compared to the UAV.

One of the last games remaining that I will happily upgrade my pc for.

If this flops then it's probably the end of pc gaming for me really. There has been absolutely nothing really that has really captivated me on the PC for a long time that I cannot get 85% of the experience of on a console.

PLEASE PLEASE be good. :eek:

If this fails.. you can always trust Valve. Source Engine 2 will most likely take crysis 2 and this out the ball park.

I just watched the Game play trailer in HD and OMG the graphics look the bee's knees let's hope its not just graphics and gameplay is also just as good

Everything you have said makes perfect sense. Until I looked at your sig.... your current setup is really good, what you planning on upgrading to?

My current system gets usurped for office duties as our company is run from home...Doesn't really bother me most of the time but due to the amount of hours I will (hopefully) be putting into BF3 if I don't have a dedicated machine there will be a murder.

everyone will buy karkland

I enjoyed Sharqui Peninsula more than Karkand.

I'm just happy Gulf of Oman and Karkand are there.

domthecondom · 24 Feb 2011 at 18:31

that is if it was "offically" announced

loved playing that map, Sharqui was just as good as Karkand or just to upset Zefan "Karkland" always good fights at the flag next to the wall opposite the building site

I had no feelings either way, thought e.g. dragon valley was much better than it

One of the NPCs is left handed, is that something that's been put into an FPS before :confused:

Warlord was probably my fav map, loved the ziplines and grapple hooks
