Got some glimpses at the game finally.....and holy shit

http://www.gametrailers.com/video/hit-the-battlefield-3/710836

I will be getting a new computer solely because of this game. of course ill wait till more details on the game since ill be skeptical until they lay out exactly how the game will be. But the clips so far show the game to be amazing...just want to know how big the maps are/how many players/if it will be more like BF2 than BF:BC.

player counts they\'ve already addressed

24 players on console

64 players on pc

:)

But yeah, i\'m hoping my current computer will hold up when they release the recommended specs and I will upgrade accordingly.  

I couldn\'t be any more excited for a game than I am for BF3.. and there are some GOOD ass games coming out on PC this year.

[size=+1]EA: Battlefield 3 Designed to Take Down Call of Duty[/size]

Quote

"This November, we\'re launching Battlefield 3. It\'s going up against the next Call of Duty, which is presently the #1 game in the game industry," he said. "A game that last year did $400 million dollars in revenue on day one. [Battlefield 3] is designed to take that game down."

Riccitiello later compared this holiday\'s battle between the two games to the Red Sox/Yankees rivalry in baseball and said gamers can expect to see massive advertising campaigns for both titles.

"There will be a couple hundred million dollars of marketing against these two products going head to head. We think we have the better product," Riccitiello added.

EA Games president Frank Gibeau echoed similar comments during GDC last month when he told us: "Everybody loves a heavyweight fight, and that\'s what this is going to be. We\'re here to compete."

Here is a game where the PC version is the one to get. :P

I love the sound design they are aiming for with this game. No Hollywood BS, instead documentary type sound/brutal realistic effects.
They recorded the sound-scape during a military exercise here in Sweden.

E3 2011 in Los Angeles is only a few days away and there is a lot of excitement in the air. We are thrilled to be at the expo to show you Battlefield 3! We are currently putting the final touches on our demo - testing, tweaking, and in general, creating a game that’s looking amazing. I’m very happy and proud of what our DICE team has accomplished and what we’ll be unveiling to the world at E3.

 Following our Battlefield 3 announcement earlier this spring, a lot of you have asked us for more info on multiplayer. Well, wait no further – we will be showing both single player and multiplayer gameplay at E3! You can expect new trailers and screenshots as well as in-depth press previews hitting next week. You can also watch the EA press conference live on EA.com on Monday.

 So what can you expect from the Battlefield 3 multiplayer? Powered by the Frostbite 2 engine, Battlefield 3 features some of the biggest and most spectacular maps that we have built. At the same time, we are also able to create more intense close-quarter combat than ever before. The multiplayer map, “Operation Métro,” available for press to play on the show floor, combines both sides of the scale into one cohesive experience. Gamers will experience a physical battlefield and be able to temporarily disable vehicles, go prone, mount weapons, lay down suppressive fire and more. Under the hood, the brand-new engine ensures cutting-edge visuals and immersion. All things combined, big and small, add up to the best Battlefield game we have ever created!

Of course there are things we will not be showing at E3, including the game’s extensive co-op campaign, the introduction of Team Death Match mode and the Battlefield 3 Battlelog web destination – featuring powerful social tools, feeds and detailed player stats. Battlelog also lets you manage your friends lists, squad up, create platoons, use voice chat and follow your friends’ progress in real-time, and more. Battlelog will be available for the monthly fee of (drum roll)... zero dollars. We look forward to providing more information on these features in the near future!

debut of bf3 on ps3... not bad... hard to tell on a compressed streaming video.  Looks like it will look decent on consoles.

[size=+1]Kraptoku: I’ve Seen Battlefield 3 on PS3 Firsthand. It’s Spectacular.[/size]


Quote

The last time I saw Kevin O\'Leary he had a beard. A tier-one beard. These day\'s he\'s wrangling press for Battlefield 3. Right now he\'s walking me behind a curtain on the second floor of a New York City ballroom to a Playstation 3 set-up on a back room television.

They won\'t allow me to play the game myself, but this will be the first time I\'ve had a chance to see the eagerly-anticipated Battlefield 3 playing on a console in person. I, and probably lots of you, had a chance to see the game played on a PS3 during an appearance on Jimmy Fallon\'s late night show. But I asked for a chance to check the game out to see how the console version compared to the computer one in person.

Later I went back and played through a multiplayer level of the game on a computer, just to refresh my memory. (Check out a quick video tour of that map here.)

Initially there isn\'t a lot of difference to notice. O\'Leary is guiding his soldier through the familiar Fault-Line series of gameplay shown off on Fallon and elsewhere. Another soldier shoulders his way into a garage, works his way through the building and then out into a parking lot where the group is ambushed.

Things look very similar, but then I start to notice some subtle differences. The lighting is the biggest difference. In the Playstation 3 version the shadows cast across the opening sequence are sharper, there\'s less subtlety in the way the light is diffused. During the gunfight that takes place outside in the parking lot there seems to be a lot less smoke and dust on the PS3 version. When my teammates fire, their barrels don\'t spew out smoke that quickly dissipates. In the PC version the entire parking lot seems to be clouded with debris, smoke and dust, in the PS3 version the same scene seems clearer, cleaner.

But these are the sort of differences you\'d only notice if you were looking for them. At first blush, the Playstation 3 version of Battlefield 3 is every bit as impressive as the computer version. The fidelity of the urban battlefield is overwhelming, the nuance of details found in the buildings, cars and make up of the city serve as a sort of camouflage for the action that unravels during the gunfight. It\'s hard to spot enemies until they open fire.

Most importantly, the PS3 version won\'t disappoint fans who found the PC version of the game thrilling. While I wasn\'t able to play through the level, O\'Leary pointed out some minor, obvious differences, between the controls of the PC and PS3 version. The game will use the directional pad, for instance, to allow you to turn on a weapon-mounted flashlight. It also changes your weapon\'s firing mode and brings up your character\'s special kit in multiplayer.

As my short time in front of the PS3 version of the game wrapped up, I ask O\'Leary if we can expect to see Move support on the game.

"Right now we\'re focused on shipping the best game in October," he responds, completely side-stepping the question.

It sounds like the game\'s next big showing will be at Gamescom in Germany next month. Hopefully we\'ll get a chance to play the game on a console there.


Very good news !
