Been watching it for a while. They haven't shown anything knew and barely any gameplay. There have been some funny moments, such as when one of the players got a BSOD.

Maybe its just the map but it does look very Call of Dutyish? When i was watching it didnt feel like any of them were a specific class kinda thing?

From the interviews beforehand it seemed like there was a large number of players who had never played Battlefield before. And they were only given a few minutes to settle in, learn the controls, and play. I wouldn't worry about people not using kits too much.

The map seems alot tighter, more infantry specific which could lend to the CoD feel. I'm sure its one of there smaller maps(or could just be a small portion of a very large map) we just don't know yet. I'm not worried, everything still looks awesome!

The map is a close quarter map designed for that type of fighting. Some of the other videos show it to be a multi-level map, which is kinda nice.

This in-depth Q/A session streamed earlier today answers a lot of questions. A must watch.

Re: Battlefield 3 LIVE from E3

Thanks, that was a very interesting video.
If I understood it correctly:
*The knife can both be equipped and used like an instant action
*Only backstabs yields a dogtag
*Snipers can hold breath for increased accuracy, but will lose accuracy when it expires
*LMGs will be deployed on the bipod by zooming
*Suppressive fire is not only from LMGs
*You get a bonus if someone you suppressed is killed (Like spotting in BC2, I presume)
*Falling debris can hurt infantry, but not vehicles
