BF3 game play clips

Pretty awesome! I saw a great gameplay trailer yesterday called "Fault Line". I was thoroughly impressed.

However, an M1 Abrams should not be stopping to get on target. That's what makes them so hard to take out. They can target from a huge distance and they never stop moving.

I think the player controls the tank during that part so you can drive and shoot the enemy tanks at the same time.

You can, but he means in real life, the Abrams tank can shoot accurately from a few kilometers away while on the move, and the barrel shouldn't bob up and down like it does in the game. But, for the sake of balanced gameplay, they can't allow such ridiculousness.

I like the opt out part of revive and I cannot wait to knife a sniper in the top of their head while they are laying prone....

Oh wow, suppressing fire will actually dim and shake the screen of those affected. Now that's some thought put into the game. Although, after playing BC2, the classes sound a little bit weird now... It sounds like what was assault in BC2 is now the medic, and what was the medic in BC2 is now sort of an assault/support group. I sense a LMG imbalance in the near future, what with 100 round box mags and infinite ammo boxes. Reminds me of when the M60 was ridiculously OP in BC2.

Also, I see a P90 in one of the pictures. I can already hear a bunch of the COD kiddies whining about people using a P90 as a noob gun. Can't wait to use it and destroy all the people whining about it. Also interested to see what assault rifles they'll have - hope they keep the XM8, or at least put in a real AK47/74, not the crappy Krinkov or AEK971.

I really REALLY hope there is an AK47 i mean CMON how can you not put the most USED gun in the world in a war game? I hope the PKM is still there, the HK416. I hope they add more cool guns too and get rid of some of the not so cool ones.

I just hope they redo the sounds of some of the guns. The sound, and the look of the gun plays a big role when I choose a primary weapon. In real life, yeah this may seem shallow, but in a video game that's all about visual and aural stimulation, it's perfectly reasonable. I was so disappointed with the sounds for a lot of their guns, even though they probably recorded them at a shooting range. The M416 sounded hollow, and kinda like a water gun. The AN-94 sounded like a percolating fart, as did the M16. The guns just need to sound like guns.

Another thing I noticed is the ejection port on the HK416 was on the left side of the rifle and the dust cover would open and close with each shot. I hope they fix that.

Yea man i totally agree with you. The visuals of the guns and sounds play a huge role in the game experience. The sounds in battlefield bad company 2 i thought were some of the bests out of all the other shooters ive recently played (COD, MOH) but thats just my opinion. I LOVE how the PKM sounds and the M60 but i do agree about the M16 and the AN-94. I wish this time though, we have the option to put a grenade launcher or keep it off same with the silencer instead of having it automatically on.

I would like the ability to put a suppressor on my assault rifles in place of a grenade launcher or any other sort of attachment. I kind of like COD's fairly open weapon customization. Implement that into Battlefield so you can customize your own weapon or class and not be restricted to pre-designed loadouts, and it would be exponentially more awesome,

I wish I already had this game pre-ordered. The problem is that I don't know where I'm going to be in 4 months, either still in socal, or moved back up to norcal, so I don't want to be placing any pre-orders with any local store until I know for sure where I'll be settling down.

I would need a new computer :\

Build one. I know a lot of people, myself included, that have either upgraded their current gaming computers, or are building totally new ones specifically for this, and future games. BF3 just seems like it's on a whole new level. I thought BC2 was as good as it gets, but after seeing the graphics in BF3, I'm appalled, It looks more real and more crisp than actual real life does...

Though, to get it to the kind of quality you saw in the tank demo, you'd probably need a top of the line i7 overclocked to a billion GHz, with octo-SLI GTX580's, and 999999999GB of RAM.

I always like having hard copies of my games.
