Battlefield 3

I don't mind to much, even though I enjoyed PR for BF2 and First Strike for BF2142, I still played the vanilla games way more often.

Looks like they'll be focusing on PC as the main system.

I'm not confident in regards to BF3. Firstly, all the BF's are almost he same game, secondly, the past like 4 major bf games have been in modern day, and thirdly, in general after the BC series I lost faith in DICE. It seems almost doomed to begin with, just more of the same stuff but jets and 64 players are back. Oh and I also don't like the frostbite engine.

Lol can you be any more negative? I mean, seriously now.

First of all, they've hardly been 'the same', I mean it's a franchise, obviously you won't change it up completely so it's a totally different game, I mean, what the hell is the point in it being a series then.

Secondly, Bad Company was a side series to the real series, it was never meant to step into the footsteps of BF2 or the previous games.

Thirdly, Battlefield is a class of its own, it invented pretty much the FPS 'complete battlefield' idea, of all types of combat going on at once, from the grunt on the ground to the pilot in the skies, to guys on an aircraft carrier. Every game added a lot onto their previous games.

Fourth, Frostbite engine is pretty revolutionary, especially 3.0 that's coming with BF3.


I mean, if you personally don't like it, fine, whatever, it's your right, but your post is just absurd, lol. I hope you be trawlin.

OMG!!Check this out.I guess it means we are going to have day afternoon night in the same map

unless it's during sunrise or sunset, it's unlikely. matches usually don't last longer than 30 minutes, unless the server admin changes the ticket count to an absurdly high amount. typically there wouldn't be time for a realistic change of daylight within a normal game, unless.. again it's during sunrise or sunset.
however, what they could do is randomize the light conditions every time the server loads the map. could have the same map at night, morning, late afternoon. some variety and change of tactics. "oh, it's nighttime. time to change my load out to include NV goggles."

BUT, that was a video of the engine, not the game. my pessimistic self doubts that DICE will take the time to go this deep into natural lighting conditions. would be pretty nice though.

yeah thats what i hope.to be able to choose the map time.

Just wondering since I first started this series with Bad Company 2 last year, is the story the continuation of Bad Company 2 or is this a different Battlefield series?

[Katsumoto]

It's completely seperate from the Bad Company spin-offs. This is a continuation of the traditional Battlefield series that began with Battlefield 1942.

Different.

There hasn't been any single-player storyline for any of the previous Battlefield games.

Well I remember hearing that Battlefield 3 was going to pick up where Bad Company 2 left off.

If such is true, I just shipizzed my pants.

Will BF3 have destructible buildings and if so how many of them cause that video showed some large multistory buildings... can they collapse?

[Mangerman]

I read that not all buildings will be destructable, (which is good, unless you want to turn a city map into a wasteland ofcourse)

, (unless you want to turn a city map into a wasteland ofcourse)

Which I do

From what i understood, the buildings that are not destructable still take damage.

[ML101]

according to the game informer article i think you can destroy a 7 story building

Or destroying a building with the entire enemy team in it.
