This is on par with my excitement for Skyrim and ME3.
In fact I'll likely be upgrading my PC revolving around those three games. With that said, do you tech folks think this will suffice for performance in generally high settings?
I was runnin BF3 on high with an under clocked, dying HD4870, never had one bit of lag, even though so many others were complaining about lag.. Can't speak for ME3 or Skyrim, but that should be fine for BF3..
i have HD4850 and i didn't get lag either lol
My only concern would be on the larger scale maps with the full release as well as the terrain on Skyrim.
1.GTX 570 1280MB or 2560MB
2.HD 6950 2GB
3.GTX 560 2GB

It won't end up being locked.. Very little on PS3 gets region locked. Now if you try to buy map packs or something, you might have some issues..

PS2 games, DVDs, Blu-rays and content you buy through PSN is locked, but the games themselves (and access to the online servers) are very rarely locked out. If it was to get locked, it wouldn't be the first PS3 game to be locked, it's just not a common practice.

didn't region lock only take affect when you import a game "lets say from Japan" and try to use it in your PS3 (example a US ps3)?

I don't think the servers will be region based and if they are just create a new PSN account in your region of choice.


So yeah just watch where you buy your Copy of Battlefield and thats all I got.

The game isn't out yet so we don't know for a fact if it is or not

Well that kinda sucks, I thought BETA was going to be open, as in open to everyone...

But meh.. I already paid it off in cash and I prefer to have physical copies of a game (not just a burned CD).. It's almost an OCD thing for me..

I've waited this long for the next big BF on PC, I can wait til release...

But I like those boxes ; ;.. Hell there's like 10 PC games sitting ontop of my desktop atm (a bunch more up in the attic).. and I have a milk crate full of PS3 games.. I like being able to look and admire my collection of games..

From what I'm reading seems like the only people who will get BETA are those who pre-ordered from Origin..

CAN'T WAIT TO GET IN MY JET! I need a new flight stick badly though, my old one is severely worn out from BF2.. 2 of the buttons are pretty much useless =/.

Also, the chaos is what I love about Battlefield.. You never really see that in any other online FPS. Glad to see it's still going to be very chaotic.. The Alpha left a lot to be desired, because it was only one map, with 1 APC.. It was mostly a snipe fest. Although even it had it's moments, like when you'd pushed them back so far it was defend the last 2 objectives or lose the match, it would turn into total chaos, cuz everyone was packed in very close range, explosions going off everywhere, bullets flying everywhere.

I kinda doubt they will.. They've said to compensate in the console version and a console's limits (more or less) that matches will be reduced to 32 people, and the maps will be smaller.. Which likely means just choppers..

Battlefield said:

GamesCom has ended, and DICE didn’t just reveal a ton of Battlefield 3 news, screenshots and videos, Battlefield 3 pretty much stole the show (and received the “Best in show” award as well). Here’s a complete roundup of the news at GamesCom, and all the game features that have been confirmed at the show.


General news
Team Deathmatch will support 24 players on all platforms.
PC won’t have in-game server browser.

…while consoles will.

Co-op was shown, but there is no split-screen co-op.

List of all the confirmed weapons.

List of all the confirmed vehicles.

BF3Blog’s impressions of BF3 at GamesCom.

Conquest will come in two forms: Conquest and Conquest 64.

The game will ship with 9 maps (excluding Back To Karkand DLC).

PC version is designed for ALT-TAB between game and Battlelog.

There is no splash screen or loading menu or login page — it goes directly into the game.

PC version will get “Ultra” quality setting

Hardcore mode will return in Battlefield 3

Infantry-only setting will return as well

Batlefield 3 game modes confirmed:
Conquest
Conquest 64
Rush
Squad Rush
Team Deathmatch
Squad Deathmatch
Gameplay features

Commo Rose has been confirmed. DICE is working on a console version of Commo Rose as well.

3D spotting has been revised.

Motion sensors are back, but cannot be thrown, and have to be deployed.

The EOD bot can be used to arm MCOMs, repair vehicles and disarm mines.

Players can spawn on any squad member now, but DICE is looking into it.

Kill-cam is back.

Jet max height is 1000m (same as BF2).

Jets will be available on consoles as well.

Bullets from different weapons have different velocity speeds, bullet drop is back as well.

Weapons are faction specific, but you can unlock other faction’s weapons once your rank up high enough.

Weapon silencers will be available on almost all weapons except shotguns.

Assault rifles with long, high-zoom scopes will have “glint” as well.

Claymores are back. You can crouch past them, but have to use explosives to blow up claymores and mines.

Vehicles will have regenerative health until being disabled.

/sigh.. I hope it's at least disabled in Hardcore mode.. I've always hated kill cam..

Thank god, although I'd prefer it be removed entirely, hopefully it too will be gone in Hardcore mode. Games with 3D spotting just tend to turn into sniper/scope fests with people firing at red dots when they can't even see the enemy to begin with. From what I saw, this game is no exception.

I like that


--------------

Kill cam is pretty pointless in Battlefield tho

Map is so huge your gone by that time

Looks like DICE actually listens to the players..

Quote:
The Battlefield 3 beta is just around the corner, but already DICE has made quite a few refinements to the multiplayer with help from fan feedback. According to executive producer Patrick Bach, the number of changes already made to the game based on alpha feedback ranges in the hundreds. The beta promises to keep even more changes coming, making a day-one patch likely.

Still not sure how BETA is going to work.. It's mostly all rumor at this point I suppose, but from what I've gleaned, it looks like those who have MOH Limited get into the BETA first, then after that it's open (not sure if that means there's limited spots or if they just get it earlier) and that BETA will only be over shortly before release. No actual date has been said yet (that I can find) on when BETA opens.. I've been Googling about every 12 hours looking for signs that it's live.

Dice is going to have a PR nightmare on their hands when they push this game out for the Consoles. Half the Frame Rate, half the Player Cap, but they're only publicizing the PC version... It's not going to end well, mark my words.


Inb4 Do ur research before buying the game. The majority of people drawn to these games don't have the attention span for proper product research.

BETA could be out any day now. PC version is already ready for release, now it's just going through approval with Sony and Microsoft (we don't know when this process started) which usually takes between 2-3 weeks.
