Day one purchase, no doubt. I was sold before even seeing the vids. When I heard that prone was confirmed and weapons had selector switches that was enough for me!

Just hope my GTX295 will handle this game - it's an early/mid 2009 era card but still seems very capable to me. We'll see though. If this game is truly the next PC gaming landmark then I'll probably upgrade.
 
I just hope the multiplayer is of that what Bf2142/1942 and BF2 is, and not BC2.

I'm not going to keep my hopes up as the latest "top title" game releases have been disappointing.
 
@zh1nt0 will we be able to bring down buildings in MP like shown in SP with earthquake or it's an animation made only for this SP mission?
@cartman37 That is the general idea of the new engine, yes

@repi Would it be possible to get a FOV slider in BF3 options this time around instead of editing the .cfg like BC2?
@empthekitty we should be able to do that, but can't promise it

@repi Does Frostbite 2 include smoke particle optimizations for ATI? BC2 smoke/explosions bring my 5870 to a halt, Nvidia seems fine though.
@GEN3RIC depends a lot on your resolution, but we have some major particle rendering optimizations in FB2 that can help _a lot_

repi: Woohoo, #AMD smuggled me a Radeon 6990 'Antilles' GPU of pure awesomeness. Fresh off the presses! #bf3

@Demize99 battlefield 3 resembles COD to the teeth. what made BF2 great was jets, tanks, massive maps. not COD iraq missions
@kurtboddah You've seen 5 whole minutes of SP footage. Juding a Book by it's cover, much?

@Demize99 will there be bullet drop in Battlefield 3? Please tell me there is!!!
@AtomicHiFive yes

@Demize99 Is it a bug when the player's left hand disappears as he sprints in the sp trailer?
@LtLethal Yes

@Demize99 even if Mod-tools for #BF3 will be too complicated for the community, release them. after a time there will be mods. i promise!
@El_Exodus It's not that the tools are hard to use, it's that it's complicated to get them running. We have server farms just for tools.

@Demize99 trending topic iPhone Is awful,Totally agree On a side note. Ive heard there's no dead meat dragging in MP for #BF3 true?
@Krisdom_ Yes. No dragging in mp. Just too slow. Other revive changes in play.
@jwflowersii Dragging has nothign to do with the time it takes to heal. At all. Drag would be bad for gameplay and not solve ****.

There should be a limit placed upon snipers in each map.

Yeah, say 2 per team. Project Reality is like this, works perfectly. Think i'm gonna go have a game of PR now actually! :D

What i don't understand is how the guys over at PR can get 128 players up and running but Dice can't, there's no chance it will be 128 players in BF3.

I've got a gut feeling my main game will still be PR even when BF3 comes. In fact i know it will be as the devs over there won't stopping PR development when BF3 comes out.

Anyone here play it? Could get a little PR OcUK clan going....:)

Isn't it sad that confirmation of 'features' like prone and firing mode are things for gamers to get excited about these days.

Lol
Glad he put the whiner in his place
 
Hate jumping the gun but really don't want to have to trapes through 50 pages of posts when someone might just know, but does anyone know the minimum system req's yet for BF3?

Pop's has been playing BF2 for about the last 6 years, literally no other game, and I was winding him up saying his laptop probably won't be able to handle BF3. So I said I'd have a little look for him and try and find out what he needs.

Cheers lads and ladies.
 
To be fairly honest J-FRO, your rig right there in my opinion would probably fit the minimum spec requirements. Although theres been no confirmation of the requirements yet.
 
Fair play dirty-blade, not so fair for what I've got planned for him though.

Need to check the specs of his laptop, if its good enough I'll tell him. Then I'll proceed and upgrade my rig, make him jealous and kick his backside at the game at the same time. Muahahaha!
 
I'd expect minimum requirements a bit above Bad Company 2, seeing as it's supposed to better optimised.

Not strictly true - we know that DX9 will not be supported, so you'll need a DX10 capable card as minimum. So that also rules out Windows XP as well (Vista and upwards gents...) and it is optimised for x64 platforms. :cool:

no that was a very vague answer.


q:Is it a or B?

a:yes.


i reckon it will be like bc2 tbh, bigger building will have destructible parts but mostly indestructible, and small buildings will be destructible.
