    Battlefield 3 Possible Plans Revealed?

    We've been sent some news about possible plans for "Battlefield 3". Digital Battle was sent a PDF file which apparently shown plans for "Battlefield 3". Take a look:
    A tipster sent us PDF document which looked like an outline of features for Battlefield 3. The three page document is apparently prepared for investors which should get it by December of this year. It details basic features of BF3, and are as listed:

    • Release in late 2008
    • Powered by “Frostbite DX”
    • Set in year modern day (just like BF2, ed.)
    • Will ship with 8 maps, each supporting up to 40-players per team
    • Two playable factions, NATO and MEC (Middle Eastern Coalition)
    • Same “ticket-based” gameplay style as before
    • Maps are mostly urban, based in Middle East
    • Squads and Commanders are present, introduced are “Battalions” which consist of three to four squads.
    • Five playable classes; Sniper, Assault, Engineer, Medic and Support
    • Will feature 48 different vehicles (24 for each faction)
    • Will feature 34 different weapons (17 for each faction) and another 22 unlocks (for both factions), in total 56 different weapons.
    • Other unlocks include different types of ammunition, body armor, helmets, camouflage and accessories.
    • Possible public beta in “Summer 2008″
    • Online stats tracking, awards and “real world ranks”
    • “Soldier” feature, looks like MMO-styled characters and avatars
    • Ranked servers will be available for resellers weeks before the game ships (for testing, apparently, ed.)
    • In-game replay and recording feature
    • VoIP, friends list, in-game IM-client and “extensive clan support”
    • Built-in auto software updater (no more patches!, ed.)
    • Widows Vista and OS X (no XP?!, ed.)
    • Announcement and teaser trailer in January 2008.

    With no word from EA/DICE about these "leaked" plans they do look very interesting for a future Battlefield game. Be sure to check the full list by clicking here. Be sure to keep your eye on Total BF2 and we will keep you updated.

      Sounds like a revamped BF2.. They've probably been looking at some mods and getting ideas just like back in the '42 and DC days.. Intresting ofcourse, but with EA/DICE track record.. me pesimistic all the way until release and review day.

            • Set in year modern day (just like BF2, ed.)

            i'm tired of modern day stuff i want WW2 (i guess i'll be around bf2 mods for a while)


            -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            • Will ship with 8 maps, each supporting up to 40-players per team

            yaaay give us no maps at all in BF4 and the evolution will be complete



            ------------------------------------------------------------------------
            • Two playable factions, NATO and MEC (Middle Eastern Coalition)

            By this rate BF4 will have 1 army and everyone is pillow fighting


            ---------------------------------------------------------------------
            • Maps are mostly urban, based in Middle East

            with this limited amount of scenario i'm happy if BF4 is larger then a house with 2 rooms and all the vehicles are remote control hotwheels


            -------------------------------------------------------------
            • Will feature 48 different vehicles (24 for each faction)

            on mostly urban maps i think this isnt a very good idea unless all the vehicles are jeeps and bicicles, of course it would be a GREAT idea if the maps were mostly vehicle based (wich i think BF should be all about)


            --------------------------------------------------------------------
            • Will feature 34 different weapons (17 for each faction) and another 22 unlocks (for both factions), in total 56 different weapons.

            in other words "buy booster packs or die"

            --------------------------------------------------------------
            • Widows Vista and OS X (no XP?!, ed.)

            good idea... make even more people pissed and even some of the ones that arent pissed wont buy the game...

            ----------------------------------------------------------------
            those are the things i think are bad, the rest seems okay, probably 70% of the stuff will be taken off the game or work very badly when the game comes out.

                      doesnt sound very appealing at all. sounds like CS with scooters. Battlefield was always that. a huge battlefield not some urban hissy fit. where are the tanks, the planes, the helis? they dont fit into an urban theme.

                          it sounds good, but im gonna update to vista for it, i will update vista when i buy a new pewter, hopefully not for least couple years if i can stand it that long :)

                          i like the unlock armor, helmets, etc. but in a way i dont.

                          whats real world stats mean?

                            This is a bad idea imo, they have yet to finish fixing battlefield 2 with all it's bugs. With just two factions how the hell is that gonna be any fun without the U.S.?
