YouTube version for those that don't like GameTrailers video system : ByzxpwR7RWA

I can't see anything wrong with them : http://www.heroesofstalingrad.com/wp-content/gallery/ro2-july-2011/ro2_sf_2011_pavlov_soldiers_01.jpg

It's Alan Wilson, Vice President of TWI, I personally think their an awesome team, crazy or not. Plus, that had to be the single best demonstration any company has done of a game to date. Forget Battlefield's, and such. :p

I think he was refering to it's length and tediousness. I guess people prefer shorter, more memorable sharper names Such as naming it say, ro2fans.com, for example :)

It HAS a server browser, it's just not a menu in the game. ;)

I found Battlelog to be much faster' date=' easier and more streamlined than your usual server browser in games. However, DICE have really started to listen to the community. So if during Beta people really do not like the new system, They will most likely go back to the more traditional ingame one. On another note, We're now bashing DICE for [i']not [/i]copying the rest of gaming industry whilst at the same time we bash Activision for remaking the same old same old and not innovating.

According to Demize99 Caspian Border is El Alemain sized. It didn't look like it though. source

... Thanks. :rolleyes: And all of you are still watching that forum? Hell, Even I've stopped going there and given up on the franchise.

it was totally random, you just had to have a veteran status and subscribe to their newsletter, and you could've been picked. Anyway, you didn't miss much. It wasn't that good.

You have to wait for TWI to announce when it is. At most it'll be a week or two wait for the announcement.

Apparently this was the map layout for that map. http://images.bf-games.net/news/2011/08/10245_14.jpg

Did you see the little drone that went accross the screen mid-trailer, I wonder what DICE has planned with that. I remember them stating they were giving some classes new gadgets but weren't ready to talk about them, perhaps we got a little sneak-peak there? And EA vision just put up the video on their channel for those who missed it: Edit: Ninja'd by Smurf with the video :)

Wow, DICE didn't half go all out on that. haha Coop, Jets, 64player, trailers and a whole floodgate of information and footage in such a short space of time. It did look impressive.

I'd love to have functioning MFCD's in the aircraft. Even if they're only simple such as putting on a navmap on it.

Possibly, Though, Valve have been pretty good at wiping out bugs quickly with Steam so far, with encountering few and then hardly seeing them again. So my bet is after a week or so this problem would be non-existent again. Overall, I like steam more than owning a DVD copy of games, it seems cheaper (with sales most times), automatic updates, ability to reinstall games, and no worries about lost, snapped or scratched DVD/CD's

Can I ask .. What exactly does an attacking tree sound like? lol

The beta will most likely come out sooner and/or finish later, so it's not all bad news. ;)

Where? I'd like to beleive this, but all I've heard of is RU vs US in Multiplayer. In singleplayer they have the PLR(?), but then again, we've not even seen conquest. So the chance that DICE has kept other teams a secret, is not too far fetched.

1 Guy = 1/2 the TWI forum? Exaggeration much?

I never got the hate against Steam, I've never encountered any real issues. (A few text chat ones where the text is typed backwards in chats, problems with servers being overloaded and such) but nothing that I ever found to be more of a "oh dear, oh well, carry on" moment.

The weapons are unlocked as Hero weapons so you don't end up with everyone running about with these weapons (if I recall correctly, heroes have both advantages and disadvantages) The bayonets you get anyway if you own Ostfront. The drum mag and Mp40/II are just a part of their unlock system. There's nothing new about unlocking things by ranking up, I don't understand why if something has unlocks it's immediately criticized, and people stay saying "It sounds like CoD" Nobody has even given this thing a chance, everyone goes on saying they need to do more, try new things and innovate. But the moment they do anything that's also anything like what is in 1 other brand they get so much criticism. Trust in indie developers, and those developers that know what they are doing with their own series. It's not as if they're going to add something that'd screw the series over.

That's one hell of a rig there Zipper. Infact I don't think it can get any better. When ArmA3 comes around you'll be set. ;) Yeah, they should've stuck with the straight up good old BF theme mix like 2142, 1943 and BF2. Yeah, 1943 was a console only on-the-side kinda game, but it did have a better soundtrack than what we've heard for BF3: hOB4q01VCVg

Try reading the BattleLog forums ... zh1nt0 posted a thread there with all the keys. Surprise Surprise. V = fire selector key

Both also have semi-auto and burst-fire modes.

Yes, Whereas alot of people will be going "It's not going to change much", once you play, You do realize there's alot of stuff missing or just not right in the Alpha - Not to mention a few very annoying bugs*.* The NDA says I'm not allowed to tell you them, so tough luck. :p The M16 does has burst fire in BF3 ... No, but there's a reason CoD sells so well - It's because there is a huge fanbase that does, very much, love the series.
