Finally!:w00t::w00t::w00t::w00t:

Guildford, UK. – March 7, 2012 – The Battlefield™ army is over 12 Million strong and growing every day as Battlefield 3™ and its first expansion, Battlefield 3: Back to Karkand continues to recruit gamers around the world with its dynamic sandbox gameplay and state-of-the-art technology. Today, DICE, an Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: EA) studio, demonstrates its ongoing commitment to fans by unveiling three new themed digital expansion packs* that will enhance the superior Battlefield experience with fresh and innovative gameplay, new modes, unique environments and more ways to wage all-out-war on the battlefield. Powered by the Frostbite™ 2 engine, the next expansion packs are: Battlefield 3: Close Quarters in June, Battlefield 3: Armored Kill in the fall, and Battlefield 3: End Game in the winter.

Battlefield 3: Close Quarters – In Battlefield 3: Close Quarters, players are dropped into a frantic, infantry-only theatre of war. Frostbite 2 high definition destruction makes the environment come alive as everything from furniture to plaster gets shot to pieces. Players will feel the intensity of the world exploding around them as rubble and broken pieces pile up on the floor, while tight level design and vertical gameplay create a highly competitive environment. Battlefield 3: Close Quarters also introduces new weapons, assignments and unique dog tags to bring back to the base game.

Battlefield 3: Armored Kill – Following the tight infantry gameplay of Battlefield 3: Close Quarters, DICE will release Battlefield 3: Armored Kill that ups the ante for vehicular mayhem as only Battlefield can do. Featuring new driveable tanks, ATVs, mobile artillery and more, Battlefield 3: Armored Kill also delivers huge battlefields for an all-out vehicle assault, including the biggest map in Battlefield history.

Battlefield 3: End Game – The fourth expansion pack will ship in the winter but details remain tightly guarded.

Battlefield 3: Back to Karkand –Battlefield 3: Back to Karkand is available now for download for ?11.99 or 1200 Microsoft points and features four of the most beloved Battlefield 2™ maps (Strike at Karkand, Gulf of Oman, Wake Island and Sharqi Peninsula), all fully re-imagined utilizing the power of the Frostbite 2 engine.

Patrick Bach, Executive Producer, Battlefield 3 said, “Instead of delivering piecemeal map packs, we’re giving players a completely new experience with every themed expansion pack to keep the action fresh. Our expansions are designed to excite our large and active fan base while attracting new recruits with gameplay that is dynamic and unpredictable every time.”

"Close Quarters" hopefully not like in COD. I do enjoy infantry gameplay though.

*Sigh* Of course, I have to wait longer for large scale maps fitting to be called Battlefield. Then again, I think they said something similar to "these are the biggest maps to date" and most of them don't even come close to the feeling of size that BF2 had. Hell Back to Karkand aside from maybe wake is full of maps that have entire sections left out. So it will probably just be another bait and switch where there like "look at all this level we designed but you cant access 50% of it unless you're in a jet!"
 
Damn you i was just going to post these! Good job though. i like close quarters actually seems fun all being suck inside a building will be like metro but no outside. I personally like some infanty only kinda get tired of tanks :D

If you are truly wanting epic scale....check out the upcoming MMOFPS Planetside 2

Once they come out with the armored furry map we should just do a full day server of pure open tank furry
 
yea planetside 2 is looking to be a really nice game, but the armored fury expansion is what im looking forward to, hopefully their will be at least 10 tanks per side of something crazy like that
 
Looks like americas army environment with battlefield gameplay. Im down.
 
"Battlefield 3: Armored Kill ?

I shall enjoy this gamemode

But is it going to be the biggest map though? EL Alamein (BF 1942) or can it be enjoyable like Heavy Barrel (BC2). So far EA/DICE announces something but it falls through in the end.
 
I like, As I miss the feeling of the size of maps form BF2 and was ok with but disliked the 32 smallness that became BC2, anyways we can only wait and see.
