BREAKING NEWS!!!!

"The jets in Battlefield 3 you will be able to play only in the Conquest mode of the multiplayer shooter. confirmed as Electronic Arts' Patrick S?derlund at E3 compared to Eurogamer.de, they are not you in the game variants Rush or Team Deathmatch are available. The reason for this is that the proper map, according to S?derlund are simply too small for it."
EUROGAMER

The preview coverage for Battlefield 3 from E3 is coming in, and the critics have some great things to say about the upcoming epic from DICE. We’ve received 31 “Best of E3” award nominations, and have already won the Best FPS award from GamePro! Here’s just a snippet of what the experts are saying.

“The game has exceeded my expectations in terms of presentation and mechanics; the battles are intense and almost scary in how much destruction can take place around you.” - Ars Technica

“In all, the multiplayer for Battlefield 3 looks like the kind of thing that will keep fans and the community of Battlefeld online gamers happy while still switching things up enough to stay fresh.” – GamePro

“It's especially noteworthy just how much DICE has nailed physicality in the game through animations, such as your legs swinging over obstacles as you vault them. But it's the prone maneuver, which has been the subject of so much forum talk already, that impresses the most: Hitting the ground and laying down fire via the machine gun's bipod just feels so right.” - GameSpot

“It is, in short, what we expect from Dice. It is very promising.” - Guardian

“Two tweaks that stood out during the time I played, and really show DICE's commitment to making the experience better and better, were the inclusion of prone and the ability to opt out of revive.” - IGN

“The recoil of guns in Battlefield 3 is deeply satisfying, especially when it's followed by an enemy staggering and then falling.” - Kotaku

“It looks great. And it plays great. And it was playing on PC. Much to the chagrin of the various retail buyers I crushed.” - PC Gamer

-_- The most played game in the E3? maybe...

MORE INFO:

The four classes have received an overhaul in the latest entry and a reakdown of each can be found below:

Assault/Medic
The Assault and Medic a classes have been combined now, where the Assault class can either chose to heal/revive teammates, or you can opt for a grenade launcher instead of the revive kit, if you want more firepower.

Support
The Support class is now the one handing out ammunition, and can also provide covering fire. You can mount your LMG and if fire in the direction of the enemy, you’ll get special bonus points for providing covering fire for your teammates. You can also select an assault rifle with a flashlight for the dark parts of maps (like tunnels), instead of the LMG.

Engineer
The Engineer retains much of his role and load-out from Bad Company 2, you’re equipped with rocket launchers against enemy armor, and a repair tool to fix friendly vehicles, and a sub machine gun.

Sniper
The Sniper has the same role as in previous Battlefield games, and is armed with a sniper rifle, C4 explosives, and spotting gear.

This^^ It looked so beautiful to launch the rocket deeper into the subway.
The knife stabbing sequences felt great to watch too, has an 'oomph' factor to it.
 
I......want......it........now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Just finished watching the EA conference. I wasn't originally going to get BF3, but now it seems I have no choice!!! Looks absolutely stunning :)

i loved the new knife sequence especially after the lolfest that was MW3's overviews. i still cant believe they are going with the super quick insta knife killing in MW3 thats just so stupid. however, BF3's knife animation was just epic, actually grabbing the player by the neck and then stabbing them in chest is more realistic of actually stabbing an enemy in real combat, not just a super quick swipe that kills someone by scratching them :facewall::facewall::facewall:
 
Looks like single player 'tank' gameplay from the EA conference
starts @50:30 mark

edit: found a better Youtube link:

Again, very satisfying, can't wait to play it :thumbup:

This thread has been updated with new videos. Go back to P3N's first post to se them.

For a tank user I enjoyed the graphics even though it was SP instead of MP.

The 49sec vid of Metro city was Supercalifragilisticexpialadocious (I needed a long awesome word)
