Zh1nt0 (head community manager for Battlefield 3) sat down with the German Battlefield community to discuss questions concerning the beta. A lot of valuable information was revealed during the conversation. You can read all of it below. Battlefield 3 Beta: The beta will not start at midnight or 00:00 GMT The download size will be 2 - 3gb Those who had the alpha must download the beta client, the alpha client can not be updated. No game rank limit during beta Pre-load information coming soon The beta was not delayed Battlefield 3 General: The netcode is completely new and rewritten Players can not join a squad if their team is full (to prevent Battlelog groups from getting split) Vehicles will begin to heal themselves after 10 - 15 seconds (this is a server setting) Vehicles will only begin to regenerate if their health is under 75% Unlocks are class restrictive, can't put a sniper scope on a support gun Operation Metro has been better balanced Two knife animations (behind and on the ground) A knife attack on your player can not be countered (aww, i wanted to save a teammate who's about to be knifed.) Throwing a grenade will still prompt enemy players to yell (Bad Company 2 similar) Hand grenades can not be held to make the detonation time quicker (known as cooking) You can join a server that a friend is on via Origin Friendly Fire is set to "on" by default. It can be turned off in the server settings Caspian Border (1.4 km) is not the biggest map Jets do not have bombs (wtf?) If you are kicked from a server, Battlelog will prompt you with the reason (ping, server settings, or admin reasoning) A ranked server can be turned into an unranked server (for practice, etc.) No weather or time change during a multiplayer game e-sports are the focus of Battlefield 3 No word on Battlerecorder/Game recorder Misc. Battlefield 3 Information: You can use three screens with the game Next 1 - 3 weeks will bring more information about maps Battlelog application for iPhone/iOS (free). No word on Android. Battlelog is updated separately to allow game updating to be a bit more flawless More community events in the works (some happening here on enterbf3!) Mod tools are still a possibility Two nVidia GTX 580's can run the game on ultra Battlefield 3 may be available on the Xbox marketplace Some 300 employees at DICE |
