Battlefield 3 - Games - Facepunch Forum

evilweazel, I have a gut feeling you will hate BF3. :v:

[QUOTE=hypno-toad;28247490]Awesome. I wonder how this will look with the new movement and vehicle mechanics :v: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-wFI9vTqto[/media] [editline]24th February 2011[/editline] I neevr played BC2, but so long as it's not one of those annoying b-b-bloody screens there shouldn't be much of a problem. It's a repsawn based game anyways, if somebody gives you a good spray you usually wind up dying anyways.[/QUOTE] BC2 had the bloody screen thing going on, but it's not bad or exaggerated. Also about regen health, it makes the game much more streamlined, I love BF2 but i hated when I was almost dead, and I would have to go around the map looking for a medic on my team to patch me up, and sometimes either there was no medic or the medic wouldn't even help me and I would die anyways. Maybe a slow regen to about 60% health would work, so if you don't get medical help then you won't be fully healthy.

Always thought if on BC2 it would flash at the top of your screen "so-and-so needs a medic!" or a revive, etc. more medics would heal people instead of going all HURFDUR BIG MaCHEIN GUNZ LOL xD"

BACK TO KARKAND? aww shit please be a remake

[QUOTE=BoosLee;28248154]BACK TO KARKAND? aww shit please be a remake[/QUOTE] Nah they're just going to port it, same textures, same models and meshes, even thought it's on a completely different and way more complicated engine. Of course they're going to remake it.

It's like Oasis with BC2.

[QUOTE=GeneralFredrik;28241455]Oh god, look at his arm when he grabs the chopper. It looks terrible.[/QUOTE] Oh god indeed, only I mean the other 95% of the gif :|

Wow.. what a year this is going to be for PC gaming. Battlefield 3, The Witcher 2, Skyrim, Diablo 3.. I was planning on signing up for the Australian defence force this year but now I'm considering doing it in 2012. Too many good games this year... Damn you!!!!

Just saw the gameplay... ABILITY TO DRAG TEAMMATES? FUCK YES.

Cofirmed, no commander feature. :crying:. They want us to be a lonewolf. Im not trying to be disapointing but i got a bad feeling about this, i feel it is going to be like BC3.

The only thing I truly care about is if DICE manages to make a good netcode.

[QUOTE=zeldar;28249839]Yeah, teamwork isn't required in a BF game without commander. [b]At all.[/b][/QUOTE] A commander that can support and order us to do something. Thats how i see a real battlefield game.

As long as I can talk to my whole team everything should work out fine.

[QUOTE=camaroni;28249739]You forgot Crysis 2.[/QUOTE] No I didn't. The first game was a mediocre shooter and it's main appeal was It's graphics. From what I've seen of Crysis 2 it doesn't look amazing compared to other games of this generation, which is why I don't understand why everyone is so excited for Crysis 2. I'm sure Crysis 2 is a good game on its own. But there's so many games coming out this year that are sequels to amazing games that Crysis 2 just feels.. bleh. It's hard to feel excited about it. Or even be arsed buying it since I'll be spending all my time playing other games this year :)

I like both :smile: [editline]24th February 2011[/editline] Also player wobbliness reduced when walking compared to BC2 overly exaggerated wobble.

Looks like the Limited Edition is now able to be pre-ordered on Amazon. And check out the description: [url]http://www.amazon.com/Battlefield-3-Limited-Pc/dp/B002I0HJZO/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1298525903&sr=8-3[/url] [quote]Limited Edition Bonus Offer Pre-Order Battlefield 3 - Limited Edition and get the Battlefield 3: Back to Karkand expansion pack for free. The expansion includes four legendary maps from Battlefield 2 boldly re-imagined in the Frostbite 2 engine, as well as Battlefield 2 weapons, vehicles, and unique rewards. Amazon reserves the right to change or terminate this promotion at any time. Offer valid when shipped and sold by Amazon.com. [/quote] I'm also hearing rumors that in those 4 "legendary" maps, they're recreating all the assets, weapons, AND vehicles used in BF2 on the Frostbite 2 Engine - essentially Battlefield 2 v2.0 . If so, holy shit.

Is there anyway to get my retail copy of BF2 on steam?

No.

The thing i want the most is people that can play as a team, i've stopped playing BC2 because it's nearly impossible to find good players. Almost everyone is recon and is suicide bombing with helis. And nobody keeps close in a squad.

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jb-mzhCTznQ&feature=feedu[/media] A video of IGN also analysing the trailer/teaser, some stuff was already shown in the gamerspawn analysis that I've posted earlier. [editline]24th February 2011[/editline] I have to say that I like the gamerspawn analysis better.

I hope that big buildings like the hotel in the "gameplay" trailer are enterable and such, and not just a scripted event taking place in a certain mission.

[QUOTE=Mercenary-;28255062]I hope that big buildings like the hotel in the "gameplay" trailer are enterable and such, and not just a scripted event taking place in a certain mission.[/QUOTE] It's unlikely, but possible. I hope they include it also.

Oh I love the blood effect in the trailer. Fucking finally someone does it right.

I hope this game doesn't attract COD fanboys. HERP I HAVE BETTER SCORE THAN YOU. FUCK MY TEAM, I'M PROOOO!

[QUOTE=Chekko;28256739]I hope this game doesn't attract COD fanboys. HERP I HAVE BETTER SCORE THAN YOU. FUCK MY TEAM, I'M PROOOO![/QUOTE] The dogtags on BC2 were much... much worse. people didn't even play the fucking game, only ran around spamming the melee button.

You must've played on a retarded server. I've never seen anyone spamming the melee in BC2.

[IMG]http://i.cubeupload.com/4IOwr0.gif[/IMG] Jets over the gate riiight before it cuts? Edited: That still doesn't say much, that mission is apparently in SP and scripted.

[QUOTE=Mercenary-;28256875][img_thumb]http://i.cubeupload.com/4IOwr0.gif[/img_thumb] Jets over the gate riiight before it cuts?[/QUOTE] Looks like it. I am so looking forward to the GDC, even though they are mostly going to be talking about singleplayer. Wonder if they'll give a hint about specs...
