u wish homo.
I like the squad dynamic if its more then 4. Its like doing a side mission. Planting c4. jumping from team controlled planes. seems like fun. the rush game type could be fun i suppose.

it'll probably be 4 per squad, so... hold on. let me do some math.

yeah, 4 squads per team.

no doubt it will be sputtering on release night with the massive volume of players, but it should run smooth soon thereafter n shite

BC2 and MoH run very smoothly as far as connections go. I doubt that will be a problem here.

They are expected to show the rest of the teaser vid (hopefully showing them blowing up that hotel) at the GDC (game developer's conference) which started today, I believe.

I found this picture while digging for info. Doesn't have any action, but gives you an idea of how big the urban environments will be:

pretty sure these images (including the one luke18 posted) are from today's GDC presentation:

this is supposedly a map from BF3 (likely a campaign stage--still, it's huge). check out the guys with guns in the lower right hand side (if it's too small, scroll down for the super-huge image link):




and this showcases the new rendering process that BF3 will use. look in the second frame this one--that's something I'm sure a lot are used to seeing. the fence is very mesh looking (a la GTA 4), whereas in the final rendering, it looks like a goddamn fence.



badass.

hopefully we see more videos and pictures later tonight.

ETA: edited for huge-ness. the original images can be seen in all of their huge-ness here:

also, bumping for the first official in-game screenshot to be released (you may remember it from the trailer). this is straight from the nvidia presentation at GDC:



the original was much bigger, so here's the link:

they better not get spotted by an RPG, what with all the destruction that will be dealt
