Breaking: Battlefield 3 Leaked Info
October 9th, 2007 by James Hyde in MMO, Multiplayer, Online, RumorA tipster sent us PDF document which looked like an outline of features for Battlefield 3. The three page document is apparently prepared for investors which should get it by December of this year. It details basic features of BF3, and are as listed:
- Release in late 2008
- Powered by “Frostbite DX”
- Set in year modern day (just like BF2, ed.)
- Will ship with 8 maps, each supporting up to 40-players per team
- Two playable factions, NATO and MEC (Middle Eastern Coalition)
- Same “ticket-based” gameplay style as before
- Maps are mostly urban, based in Middle East
- Squads and Commanders are present, introduced are “Battalions” which consist of three to four squads.
- Five playable classes; Sniper, Assault, Engineer, Medic and Support
- Will feature 48 different vehicles (24 for each faction)
- Will feature 34 different weapons (17 for each faction) and another 22 unlocks (for both factions), in total 56 different weapons.
- Other unlocks include different types of ammunition, body armor, helmets, camouflage and accessories.
- Possible public beta in “Summer 2008″
- Online stats tracking, awards and “real world ranks”
- “Soldier” feature, looks like MMO-styled characters and avatars
- Ranked servers will be available for resellers weeks before the game ships (for testing, apparently, ed.)
- In-game replay and recording feature
- VoIP, friends list, in-game IM-client and “extensive clan support”
- Built-in auto software updater (no more patches!, ed.)
- Widows Vista and OS X (no XP?!, ed.)
- Announcement and teaser trailer in January 2008.
A map is mentioned by name, called “Baghdad Burning”, and appears to be a massive urban map, similar to BF2’s very popular “Strike at Karkand”. The game is powered by “Frotbite DX”, currently the Frostbite engine is used in Battlefiled: Bad Company on PS3 and Xbox 360. The “DX” could refer to DirectX (10?), a PC version of the Frostbite engine.
Please note that none of this is confirmed, we’ve emailed a few people from EA and DICE (Battlefield developers) and will update the article as soon as we know more. Also note that we cannot, for obvious (legal) reasons, release the PDF document. Stay tuned for more info.
[Update 1] A few wanted to know if the document mentions in-game advertising, it does not, but wouldn’t be surprising, considering BF2142 had in-game advertising.
[Update 2] EA responded to the rumor with a “no comment” statement. Still waiting for a reply from DICE (which will probably be the same).
[Update 3] For clarification, the document doesn’t say that XP is not supported, it only lists Vista and OS X.
[Update 4] Further investigation reveals that EA DICE owns the domain “battlefield3.com” (not so important, since it was registered in 2004, so was battlefield4.com etc.). Still no reply from DICE. Stay tuned for further updates.
[Update 5] EA and DICE have responded to the rumor.

80 players on a Karkand like map sounds just insane. I’m in!
October 9th, 2007 at 4:56 pm
any mention of in game advertising?
October 9th, 2007 at 5:34 pm
Advertising is unavoidable, games are getting expensive to be done.
I was skeptical aobut the BF series, and still in relation to bugs, EA managed to flunk even the, award and beloved by it own communitie, Medal of Honor title. Giving a bugged game.

Ok, just as with the WHOLE Battlefield franchise, I will no longer succumb to the hype EA gives BF. BF is a great series btw, don’t get me wrong, but what their marketing hypes up often falls short.
I’m talking about the bugs, the engine restrictions that make the BF series short of what it can be. (Fast roping? How different is BF2 final from when they were just previewing movies and screenies? How many cool things got taken out…) I’ll wait patiently and see. You’re not hyping me up this time EA!

Even with all the criticism on BF2, as well as on B2142, both are excellent games. I really hope to see a next version. If they would include the maps from previous version (as an expansion) that would guarantee hundreds of hours fun.

You’re a tool. A worthless, idiotic tool. “Games are more expensive to make now..”. So effin’ what. Doesn’t mean we should pay; maybe they should just work on one game at a time and make it such a good game, everyone wants it. I’m not buying Battlefield 2 again.

Awesome, sounds like they totally have forsaken their roots and pandered to the CS crowd. Mostly Urban maps, so we get more dust_(insert version here) retreads? Why even bother with vehicles because they will be removed by little CS kids. Will there even be an anti-armor class or do they really want to waste the slot for that.
Way to pander to the dumbed down masses, unlike you did with BF1942, but I guess that is why today’s DICE is not the same DICE that created the BF franchise.

Games can be made without the annoying ad’s in it, just look at all the games Valve makes and CoD4 which doesn’t have them.
It just depends on if you have greedy developers or not.
If it has streaming ad’s like 2142 lots of people will not buy it.
I bet there will be 2-3 booster packs, and people still won’t be able to add custom maps to ranked servers.

October 11th, 2007 at 8:09 am
nah, i reckon they’d still have c4, just under some other kit like support, or maybe engineer
OR maybe they’re doing similar to what was done on 2142 and they are allowing you to mix and match weapons.
I wonder if that means you could have a medic with c4?

@juiceton: That “shitty” emulation is not from Aspyr; they do proper ports to the Mac. You’re talking about Cider, from Transgaming Technologies. EA released BF2142 along with others themselves using Cider. The technology is far from “shitty”. It is still in its infancy, and definitely has some growing to do. It will only get better the more games get out in the wild, and the more feedback Transgaming gets on it. If it means getting Mac ports day-and-date with the PC version, then I am definitely for it, assuming they run well. The jury is still out on that.

Its time to move on..what they need to do is make a BF3 version of BF1942 where you can do anything and the damage models are fixed. I dont want NO flying tanks or anyother DICE favored weapons which are UNREALISTIC!@

that only vista thing doesnt make any sense cuz vista has nothing to do with game play.. if its that way then i guess theyll lose alot of sales because 90% of the gamers i know still have xp.

I just got this in my email!
If anyone gets PCGamer, there was a statement of “Stay tuned for the next issue, you won’t want to miss it!” Ha! This is awesome, also the graphics in the background are not from the game, an actual soldier.
A few points:
- “Our spies tell us…” That’s a good sign.
- The new engine will be expanding on the current frostbite one (exploding buildings and long view distances.)
- MEC and NATO forces verified
- Ranks, Commanders, the good ‘ole stuff!

Quote:
Our Spies tell us we’ll soon see the announcement of Battlefield 3. This is great for fans of online shooting, long distance sniping, helicopter strafing and comedy tank antics. EA are tight-lipped for now, but here’s what to expect.
Modern Combat
The biggest question: when and where will it be set? We hear it’s going to be modern-day, in a fictional war between NATO and the Middle Eastern coalition [MEC]. Consider the last game - a future of floating artillery and anti-grav platforms - a diversion. Most of the eight maps will focus on urban sites. We’d love to see a return of Strike at Karkand - a frenzied battle across an empty city.
More Online
Since Battlefield 2, the team at DICE have picked up influence from MMO game. Persistent stat tracking and new weapons for experienced players will be present, but we’re hoping for more. Expect to customize your soldier’s appearance, armour, and weaponry beyond unlocks. Choosing a face, voice, tattoos, and badges would be an obvious start.
Heavy Tech
In console land, they’re already being treated to a new Battlefield game, Subtitled Bad Company, it’s debut of the next-gen “Frostbite” engine. Aside from producing staggering draw distance that lets you pick off targets miles away, it’s imbued with some serious deformation technology. Buildings can be blown apart, bridges burst and craters carved. Battlefield 3 will evolve that technology further.
Class Act
Why mess with a near perfect set of abilities? Battlefield 3 won’t alter the standard Sniper, Assault, Medic, Engineer, and Support class balance. Want a quick rev? Call for a Medic. Need a tank busted? Grab the Assault trooper and pray he’s packed an RPG launcher.
Guns, And More Guns
Every soldier needs a weapon, and Battlefield 3 will be chock full of firearms, 34 in fact, split evenly between the MEC and NATO. You’ll have to work for the privilege of sporting the most powerful rifles. As well as weapons, you’ll unlock armour, ammo, helmets and accessories.
Play Together
The best feature of Battlefield 2. Sharing objectives and voice chat with friends as five-man squads. That’s being extended, with squads able to join up to form a battalion - the perfect partner for improved clan support and ranked servers. Commanders can still order grunts to the front and supply them with ammo drops, radar pings, UAV reconnaissance and the occasional artillery strike.

of course vista has to do with gameplay, only Directx 10 is able to make the destruction through network, like in crysis.

Well, I got alot of school when this game is planned for release in late 2008, and I wont really buy this game if you cant ”import” you’re account from BF2 to BF3.
Dont really need to ”import” stats or anything just the rank cause i dont really wanna sit and play for 1300 hrs to get colonel rank again, Please post back what you think about this subject!
March 8th, 2008 at 1:21 pm

March 11th, 2008 at 10:52 am
If there is no support for Windows XP, I am not buying it.
Why should I spend the money on the game and the new PC for this game?
March 18th, 2008 at 6:02 pm
well if i have to go to vista i wont be getting this game and i have bought all of you games so far so if u cant go XP see you later EA
March 19th, 2008 at 3:33 pm
I love BF2, but I got kinda bored of it waiting for BF3 to come out. I am very fond of a lot of the changes they have made, but I wish they had more than one faction, and put the “Special Ops” Class back in the game. They said these changes weren’t confirmed, so I hope that they make those things I just suggested a part of the new Battlefield :P!

Come on I want some BF3. I will buy a new PC for that! But it upsetting to hear that teams will be restricted to Mec and NATO . Chinese and russian armies will add a more exciting environments therby not boring us.
June 25th, 2008 at 1:48 pm
Bah! Mideast again?! I want circa 1989 conventional WWIII.
Think of the locales, Iceland, Alaska, Central Europe. Oh and by the way, bring back the frigging Navy already.
June 26th, 2008 at 9:10 am
I think the sales of the console games are VERY BAD and some political shit is also going from the Microsoft to develop more game for the XBox, that is why some STUPID MORONS in EA (marketing), (not DICE) decided to release this game to consoles. Anyway, in a few words, whoever made this decision (no offence) is a such UNPROFESSIONAL STUPID MORON. Shame on EA, that they have this kind of people work for them.
