Some interesting gameplay tweaks: Medic + Assualt classes combined into the one class Support class can earn points for suppressive fire. LMG's have bipods that can be deployed during prone, on a short wall and even cars. Enemies under fire will receive a slight screen blur as bullets whizz by in close proximity to evoke the sensation of being caught under fire Engineers will support undersling attachments, with one being a flashlight which can be used to blind enemies in low light situations Snipers now will have a 'hold breath' button to increase accuracy and eliminate quick scoping problems in previous bf games (Much like COD system I assume). Snipers can go prone, but to avoid pesky campers, lens flare is included so observant people can locate snipers Vehicles can be immobilized before being destroyed, so turret function still remains until it's eventually blown up or repaired. Blast damage is localized, so not everyone will die in the tanks from a nasty RPG, if it hits the back, the guy in the back may be the only one to cop it |

Origin is quite good, the client is the same as Steam's, looks prettier though, has live support chat, and is getting non-EA games. Has friend list, chat settings and overlay, it is Steam EA, and since EA is pulling all its games from Steam, this will shortly be the only place to get EA PC games. |

I love how its like "Snipers get hold breath" like its a new feature - its been incorporated into nearly every FPS shooter. I guess Snipers don't get bipods, which would be good add that extra stability. |

will be getting this on PC as well. Will look much better than the console version and the 64 player is just plain mad! Medic and assault class in one, oh bring it on!! Loving the sound of this game more and more I hear about it. And if we can set up some OSG nights this will be great

I installed Origin, I since its $79 much cheaper than from EB i think (and on Xbox). My username on Origin is 'zero9ine' which was my usual name on Steam and such until i changed it but you can search for me via the XBL name as they both should be linked.

PS3 has Open Beta from the 27th (or 29th i forget) for a week.
I'd be interested to see if theres a PC one.. I know if you pre-ordered it you get 48hrs early access on PC. PC Related news. The system requirements for the settings of BF3 to be on "HIGH" are:
Personally, I'll probably dumb down the graphics for faster FPS, and quicker response to finding people, I found in some games turning the ground detail to lower actually was almost cheat like in finding players laying prone as I had no grass obscuring my view and could see them in plain sight as opposed to having it on. Plus I don't give a fig about high detailed grass and shadows.. as Ive said before, I don't spend enough time standing looking at the finer details like a twat when you're supposedly in combat. |

Hmmm would be nice if they have a PC Beta, so I can test run the graphics ect. Might just go for another GTX 570. Would love to see it running maxed out |

Save your cash Blitz I doubt its going to make much of a difference visually, but you can always pump it up to ultra check it out then lower it and compare. |

Oh I'm definitely on PC. There's a very slim chance I might get 360 as well, so I can play with my brother in law (that sounds wrong), but PC is my weapon of choice. I just hope they've implemented pad options for PC as well, so I cn play it on my teev Edit - driver update time . http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-09-26-drivers-give-bf3-38-percent-performance-boost Edited by felicitous blue, Monday Sep 26 2011, 10:34 PM.

Cheers Blue, Driver Updated. I didnt read the post properly Jammer, I thought those specs you put up before were minimum requirements not 'high' settings. Sounds good though, easily power through on High.....Yay :p Theres a PC requirements check at the GeForce Page |
