That looked pretty good for a PS3 version. It's interesting they chose to demo it on PS3, gotta remember that the triple can't use Direct3D or anything DX related so it must mean Dice is pretty confident on Frostbite 2's performance outside of Microsoft platforms.

why cant Dice take more time learning the PS3 hardware, if you would, that gameplay would of looked 10 times better, example: KZ3/UN3!

"Learn hardware". Dudes either trolling or that's a great way to spot a mouth breather with no experience with developing games.

Regenerative health in tanks seems like an odd idea for this series. I can see certain instances where that could be really annoying. We'll see I guess.

Regenerative health for tanks? I don't get it

cool breeze · « **Reply #133 on:** August 16, 2011, 10:26:52 PM »

I remembering reading a bit into it before. It's not like infantry's regenerating health where you hide and it recovers in seconds. It's supposed to be very slow and basically ineffective in action to keep the engineer relevant.

I think it's so you don't jump in a jeep and find it only has 5% health. Because engineers have no real reason to repair random, unattended vehicles.

cool breeze · « **Reply #137 on:** September 04, 2011, 05:14:45 PM »

sp and mp dvds make the most sense. a lot of pc games use a different executable for each component, like the Call of Duty games. I know the 360 version lets you boot straight into multiplayer for Black Ops. I'm guessing DVD 2 will be like that.

If Tim Willits said three discs, two for SP one for MP that's better than some websites that say 22gb install then assuming 2 discs. 22gb for SP sounds likely.

lulz. That gaf thread is funny because the bf3 fanboys are spinning their asses off. That crew is very obnoxious on GAF.

For what its worth I personally don't really care about the graphics. I'm sure they will be decent enough when the game releases. The fact that its 30 fps on consoles bothers me more than any perceived graphical issues.

Also the game will sell well on consoles. BC 2 sold well on consoles. This will sell better than that. Because it won't reach MW 3 numbers doesn't mean it didn't sell well. Not to mention it will have a huge marketing budget. It already has had one in fact.

I would prefer they bumped it up to 32 like Homefront but honestly I'm not one of those dudes who jizz at 64 player battlefield. All those players just tend to make the game a chaotic mess imo. Same reason why I don't like the over-stuffed player counts in the PC versions of the COD games.

1. I'm not a graphics guy
2. High player count is meaningless to me. See MAG.
3. I've got a core set of people I already play shooters with on my friends list.

That's all dependent on the crowd and the map layout, though. I feel less crowded on a full Warhawk map than I do on a typical COD map with a fraction of the player count. Either way I prefer having the option, as opposed to being locked into some lower number. But to each their own.

Eurogamer has discovered what is on each of the two Xbox 360 Battlefield 3 DVD discs.

"Battlefield 3 for Xbox 360 ships on two discs with endless hours of spectacular high-definition gameplay," EA told us this afternoon.

"Disc one features the stunning multiplayer, co-op levels and HD installation content.

"Disc two features the superb single-player campaign."

From the comments

Quote

Just quizzed EA on the "HD installation" comment, thinking they might have meant "HDD installation".
But they didn't. It's definitely "HD installation content", as in "hi-definition".

Could be high def cutscenes or hi def something

cool breeze · « **Reply #174 on:** September 22, 2011, 06:21:54 PM »

BF2 didn't really have single player; same for 1942, Vietnam and 2142. I remember the single player modes were just bot matches.

BF2 Modern Combat on the PS2/Xbox/360 was the first Battlefield game to have something resembling a single player game. It was still a bot match, but you were some magical battlefield ghost who could inhabit any friendly soldier. So if you were a ground unit and saw a helicopter, you could transplant your consciousness into that helicopter pilot instantly. Bad Company 1 had an actual campaign, but the maps were still fairly open and Battlefield-ish. Bad Company 2 was Call of Duty. Battlefield 3 is Call of Duty.
