Game Info

Battlefield 3 allows you to feel the full impact of battle like never before. Powered by Frostbite 2, the next generation of DICE’s cutting-edge gaming engine, Battlefield 3 delivers spectacular visuals, earth-shattering destruction and real as hell combat gameplay providing a dramatic immersive First Person Shooter experience. One moment you may be marching down a hilltop listening to the hypnotic sound of a firefight in the distance or admiring the way the light reflects off the smoke plumes of ground to air missiles rising from the city you’re about to engage. The next you’re on an urban street, surrounded, claustrophobic, fighting for your life and looking eight ways at once with all your senses on high alert, chilled at the knowledge that the building you’re hiding behind can be your best friend or your worst enemy. Welcome to Battlefield 3.

Let's see what else comes out today.

[GullyFoyle]

Battlefield 3 Limited Edition is $49.95 from the EA Store. Part of EA's strategy to be #1? Or does DICE have the power within EA to set thier own prices?
And think, MOH was $60...

 

[Wrigleyvillain]

BF3 beta access was only available with an MOH pre-order tho, correct?

I would like to play as a female!

I wanna play as a Krogan.

 

[EastCoasthandle]

"mount your weapon on almost any part of the terrain"
Hmm, I recall people asking for that in BF2 way back. But it was requested for light machine guns and sniper rifles.

Wheeled APCs and jets. Your life-expectancy just went down by half.

That's more like it. Back in July, Electronic Arts tried to entice gamers to pick up the Limited Edition version of Medal of Honor by including a ticket to the Battlefield 3 multiplayer beta. That was the first we heard of the game, and EA didn't share any details about it. As far as announcements for big games go, it was a dud. Six months later, with a website, teaser trailer, and Game Informer cover story, EA is finally ready to properly announce Battlefield 3.

Built on DICE's new Frostbite 2 engine and featuring an "exponential leap" in environmental destructibility, Battlefield 3 is set for release this fall. Here's the teaser:



The teaser reveals little but the release window, and that's where the new BF3 website and Game Informer March cover story come in. From GameInformer:

"DICE has honed the concept for the true sequel for years, but it wasn't until the company developed the powerful new Frostbite 2 engine that it felt all the pieces were in place to create a proper follow-up. Armed with powerful upgrades like deferred rendering, real-time radiosity, a new animation system borrowed from the EA Sports label, and an exponential leap in destructibility, executive producer Patrick Bach dubs Frostbite 2 'the best piece of technology on the market when it comes to building games.'"

On the official Battlefield 3 website, blog, and twitter feed, EA and DICE also revealed the game will include jets, the ability for players to go prone, and 64-player mulitplayer on the PC version -- 24 on the console version. More from EA:

"Battlefield 3 is the true successor to Battlefield 2. Beyond our signature multiplayer, we have also included a full single-player campaign and a co-op campaign – all straight out of the box. As for fan favorite features, how does the return of jets, prone, and 64-player multiplayer (on PC) sound? All this built with our powerful new game engine Frostbite 2, which you'll hear and see a lot of in the months leading up to launch."

Battlefield 3 is being developed for the PlayStation 3, Windows PCs, and the Xbox 360. The game is set to ship sometime this fall, and as the cover of Gamer Informer notes, "DICE sets its sights on Call of Duty."
