Battlefield 3

They're giving nothing away. For all I know it could be screenshots of the beta, it could be a release date, or it could be info on how we should configure the servers. All I know is that they said there'd be more info regarding the beta on Friday.

I would not be surprised if nothing came of it.
 
It saddens me that hte BF community is turning more and more into a CoD one. Some of the comments on BF3 news on websites like bf3blog.com make me wish there was an enforced age limit on the game. And an immediate ban for anyone who uses the same name as a crap American dubstep producer.

Yeah the comments section is facepalm central. I don't really see the CoD players hanging around for long though. No killstreaks or instant death will shoo them away.
 
I'm buying it

Should be fun, some contraversy over the steam/warden system or whatever they are using. Apparently it's possible for EA to view every file on your pc.

Missed out on bad company vietnam, couldn't be bothered.

I'm waiting for Vietnam 2, that's what they should be doing.

Is this on Xbox too by any chance?
 
Karma already paid me back for taunting you before I taunted you. Booked the tickets for Birmingham and then a week later EA announced they would be showing at an expo in London :facepalm: :D

I'll make sure I come back with a full report though :)
 
Guys, leaked singleplayer xbox footage has been doing the rounds but is getting taken down fast by EA. On YouTube at least! It's terrible quality (recording wise) and there is some debate about what version of the software was being played. Some say latest dev release (I doubt that) others saying Alpha stage footage.

There are some screenshots on BF3blog.com though. And you can try searching YT for the vids. I don't want to link to one as there is a chance it will be taken down so prob better if you search.
 
I do wonder how many private BF3 servers there will be. Are you guys hosting as part of the official European servers for EA or doing private rentals?
 
Private Rental. It's going to cost around £600 a year for one 64 slot server. I imagine most clans and communities will stick with the 32 player only maps.

We could be doing Official EA servers but I wouldn't know about it. Everyone is terribly hush hush for fear of litigation.

Right you are *taps nose*

We (my old clan) had a 32 slot BF2 server that cost us £35 quid a month a few years back so that figure does not surprise me. It was nice having full control over map rotation and being able to lock it for squad practice sessions. But after people started getting bored of the game, only me and 2 others were paying so we gave it up.

Now a £40 a year XB Live sub is terribly good value compared to that :D
