Battlefield 3 announced?

Battlefield 3 is supposed to use the Frostbite 2.0 engine, in which Battlefield: Bad Company used the Frostbite 1.0, and while Battlefield 1943 and the Epic FPS Battlefield: Bad Company 2 used the Frostbite 1.5, it's gonna be even more realistic than before. You now have the ability to go prone and on the PC *In which I might buy it for depending on if my friend is going to download it from Steam when it comes out, or for the Xbox 360* you can get up to 64 people in a single match. New vehicles, new weapons, new maps, new EVERYTHING! More explosions, KABLAM!!! Still, I was kinda hoping Battlefield 3 would be a WW2 game and not a Modern Warfare game, I'm kinda getting sick of it, I even want to go and buy W.A.W so I can play a WW2 game, I got into Modern Warfare games because I got sick of WW2 games, and Halo's futuristic games... aren't cutting it at all for me... Still, hopefully Battlefield 3 can renew my interest. All I can do now is play Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Vietnam and Call of Duty: Black Ops Zombies and wait for it to come out.



Anyone else getting the game and does anyone have any other news to share?Battlefield 3 announced?
haha i freaking psyched for this game! i want it more than anything. ya, its gonna have jets. PC will have 64 player games, its unclear the number for consoles. It will have a single player and a co-op, and you play as the US marines. There are many levels in big cities, including NYC and Paris, and many famous monuments can be destroyed (with the all new, never before seen Frostbite 2.0), this means Eiffel Tower is gonna be blown up =P. Btw, if were lucky, they might come out with a WW2 expansion, just like vietnam, but a continuation of Battlefield 1942, (just a thought, so dont take my word on that).
Battlefield 2 (2005) and 2142 (2006) had the ability to go prone and up to 64 people in a single match, so they've gone backwards, which isn't a bad thing. Still if the graphics are going to be better then you will need a big $$$$ PC to run it on high settings, the consoles still have the same hardware they've always had so the graphics will be no better.



I might get it but Battlefield and Cod seem to be same old game with slightly different (not better) graphics, less stuff in the release and more as $$$ Dlc, so I will wait for gameplay videos and reviews and not pre-order like I usually do.Battlefield 3 announced?
You are kinda wrong in some aspects.



PC will have 64 player support



Consoles will have 24.



Either way, im getting PC, since Ive played every battlefield game on PC. BF2 was the best of all time.



Also, there isnt much around the vehicle reports. Jets, Helis, Tanks, Transports are confirmed, but im not sure whether its on consoles.
i feel u broBattlefield 3 announced?
actually i got tired of playing all of the war games back on the ps2,so i really have no interest in playing any of the ones that have come out on the ps3 or xbox 360.between brothers in arms,call of duty,medal of honor,shellshock,conflict vietnam,vietnam purple haze and a few others,i have had quite enough.the graphics look great in these games but after that i just see it as the same old thing.hope this helps.have fun gaming.
