Tense scene waiting for the Battlefield to new information about Battlefield 3 , and hopes are also drawing on the forthcoming cover story of the game star. As hardcore fans of course we have no ways and means spared to get the report in the March edition of the fingers. And thanks to a nice magazine vendor has even worked. We have worked through the nine pages and compared them with the report from game informer. Is it right not to read much news, but one is addressed the most hotly debated issues: the classes.
Four classes in multiplayer
As expected, editor Fabian Siegismund same demo mission as your colleagues from game informer has played, but the report offers at least some pieces of information to the multiplayer. In a start-up screen during the presentation of four classes were to be seen with (text) "five equipment kits. Probably Siegismund mean by that secondary slots for weapons and specializations, as well as in Bad Company are 2 available. There are, however, six slots.
Replay function aka Battle Recorder
Another extremely important initial information on the Battle Recorder, the victories of mouth as a replay function is called. The text here reads: "The already existed in Battlefield 2, DICE is now experimenting with a usable version for Battlefield 3. A real confirmation that's not, but both fans of machinima and the eSports community and anti-cheat can hope again. For all three groups, the recording of demos is extremely important.
F-16, F-18, Su-27 and Solo Mission
Another point in the multi-box is the first confirmation of specific aircraft. Here is made to the General Dynamics F-16 and Sukhoi Su-27. What is interesting about this statement is the following aspect: in the article is a fighter jet imaged at it but not an F-16 is but an F/A-18 E / F Super Hornet (thx MaXFraGG). Also important: in the report as a solo single-player mission is mentioned in one of the jets.
More details on the Sound
For many players also extremely important to the topic of sound is also here, the report includes more details. As a picture is clear, objects such as tanks or other vehicles are assigned to multiple sound channels that play depending on the position of the player to the object. There are about 80 of these objects for individual channels to make the soundscape as realistic as possible. The article does not address the question of whether Battlefield Bad Company 3 as 2 no longer relies on hardware acceleration.
Confusion over number of players for the console
For most discussions of the contribution will not make the multiplayer issues and sound, but the little details. The image of the jet that does not match the description in the text, the lack of sight on the screen shot of the M16 (see scan), but above all, a sentence is only 64 players on our favorite platform Konsoleros have to make do with 32. And that's not the point is hidden, but rather the number is officially responsible for the console that is not 24 and 32nd
Last words - or why the purchase is worth
On the contribution we have said and actually most of you might think the walk to the kiosk would not pay anymore. As a true fan of the series, I must disagree vehemently rejects. The screens of the player models (which shine next to the overall look by the way, details such as tattoos) simply give printed from a very different image than scanned. This is the description of the demo mission by Fabian Siegismund the same way that Matt Bertz, but in some places, rich in detail. Off in a duel (right and left mouse button), the bombers: For example, in describing a Quick Time Events defuse the bomb before the earthquake.
Two sides to Play4Free
Final argument for the purchase are two sides of Battlefield Play4Free, that ends the report. Once a site has an editor Siegismund also looked at the Battlefield online clone and structure and procedure describes the game, which is by DICE and EA still under an embargo. Again, there are some nice screens.
