    According to DICE's lead designer, BF3 is going to be announced tomorrow, 4th of February.

    My sources say it's going to be on GameInformer.

    Yeah that would be awesome. Hopefully they make use of bunkers and such, they had some in bf2 but they were untextured and never used. Probably because they never got tech to cut holes in terrain. Really hope bf3 has an editor tbh.

    I'll second hoping it has an editor, if it plays anything like Bad Company 2. Even though what I really want is an editor for Bad Company 2. Jets just seemed to be a really good way for someone else to kill me, and I'm not a huge fan of having to wait in line for a vehicle. But I still had a lot of fun with all the earlier Battlefields at LAN parties, I'm looking forward to this one.

    OH MY DOG!!!! GIEV INFO NOW!!!!#!#!ARRGHH HULK IS ANGRIEE!11

    Riccitiello did say that there would be a major unannounced FPS hitting this year, and that an announcement was nearby, so this just further confirms my suspicion. Can't wait to see what it'll be like, my feeble mind is just imagining BF2 with Frostbite tech, but hopefully there's something more to it (Even though that would be fine for me! ).

    EXCITEMENT!!1

    I hope it's arcadey like BF2 and not geared towards the 3 bullets-and-you're-dead-from-20-miles-away-with-blood-splatters-instead-of-health gameplay of BC2. BF2 was the buggiest game I've ever played, but very few games matched its replay value. Infantry? Fun. Tanks? Fun. Shooting down choppers using the TOW for humiliation factor? Fun. Flying choppers? Fun. Soloing choppers? Fun. Jets? Fun. Two man jet rape? FUN.

    It was ace. BC2 felt small and too CSey for my tastes. Also: Fuck infantry only. If you want CS, go play CS!

    they wrote a rather detailed post on why bad company 2 don't have any mod tools, its due to their pipeline. So i'm guessing there won't be any support for it in bf3 either

    Figures, can't just show a trailer or teaser, need to announce that first and then you obviously also need it on the cover of GI since that such a big deal. Why can't they just release some videos or screenshots and have us all live in glorious harmony

    Oh well, later today.

    If this emulates Call of Duty, Medal of Honour or Bad Company's gameplay in any way I am going to be very sadface. We need a new battlefield 2.

    Anyone else get a Terminator feeling from their trailer?

    I hope EA has realized that this, and not Medal of Honour, is the franchise they have that actually has a chance of taking on COD. If they can do a slick and well polished single player campaign and just keep iterating on the multi player then they actually got a real chance because it different enough.

    BF's biggest hurdle and strength against COD is it's slower pace though. Though many get turned off by the insane pace that a regular COD TDM game, then there's plenty that like the fact that they get straight into the action.

    You gotta wonder when COD starts bringing in controllable vehicles in their MP, and whether that'll be a spin-off franchise

    The game will include jets and the ability to go prone as well as 64-player multi-player (for PC).

    Thank you lord!

    Now, we just need the following:

    - Balanced Jets

    - Good hit detection

    - Inability to nadespam

    - Non-CoD Gunplay (MoH... man was that pure shit)

    - No nonsensical dolphindiving

    - No 3D-spotting bullshit


    ... and we should be good to go!
