So who's hella excited for Battlefield 3?

[w/e]

Even though the release is roughly a year away, I'm still really pumped for this game.
BF2, BF2142, and BFBC2 were pretty much my life for a little bit. I spent an entire summer doing nothing but playing 2142 lol

For anyone who's following the development as closely as I am, here is a great source for news:

So, for all the BF fans out there, what do you guys want to see in BF3?

Should commander mode make a return? Should there be a do not revive option? How big should squads be, and should people be able to spawn on anyone? Can we have a big ass bomber to fly? Expectations for Frostbite 2.0?

Discuss.

I for one would love it if they made it so that we could choose different types of battlefields.
Some examples would be:
Modern
WW2
American Civil War
Medieval

Heck it would just be awesome if they did that^^ But then again I would be asking for to much

It said Fall 2011

I'm looking forward to it even though I don't game anymore, BF2 was always fun for me. It was just too glitchy and never smooth. That's all I ask for this game, to be polished.

edit:

other problems were that people always wanted to fly the airplanes or helicopters and would just sit around in base if they weren't spawned up. not to mention teamkilling if someone other than them got the vehicle.

I am. Destruction 2.0 ftw

Here's what I think it needs:

1. All this
2. Driving ships and really big planes
3. Maps with important places and landmarks, i.e. Pentagon/White House, Saddam's Palace, Forbidden City
4. USA vs PRC vs MEC vs Russia, probably in a war for energy and resources
5. Destructibles - no more adamantium haystacks that hurt your tank when driving into them and protect infantry from tank shells; craters and traces of explosions and bullets would be nice, too


Aside from that, it looks promising. I hope the devs don't let the game stray from the franchise.

I'm semi-excited. Or I was until I heard the maps they're gonna put in. Gulf of Oman and Karkand, now I'm REALLY excited!

that is, unless you get into the beta, which starts sometime in march or april *cough* me *cough*
:3

i can't wait for this game. its my num. 1 awaited game. i've gotten tired of BC2 after over 1500 hours played and every platinum star acquired. d2.0 should be awesomer than bc2 i hope

Guess what game's sounds are gonna blow my ears off?!
An article and a video about BF3's sounds.

I was playing this http://battlefield.play4free.com/en/home
What is?
It has those same maps, lol, Oman and Karkand.

Anyway, I used to be interested in Battlefield. Got the pre-order, never got the game. So I lost interest. But I played around with 1 and 2 at friends' every now and then and it was pretty fun. Looks cool.

Forgot to mention, Fault Line II is released now. I LOVE the end!

Battlefield 3 has just set the highest possible standard of modern gaming.

the next step is to beat graphics from movies xd

 

[Jedimindtrixxx]

sadly, those are the graphics on PC, they are going to have to cut down a bit for the console version because of the system holding it back

Graphic standard, tyvm, but yea, the gameplay looks promising

I love how tanks blow up buildings. It was irritating how your tank basically stopped when hitting the edge of a haystack

Edit:
Ops, I'm repeating myself
