Anyone looking forward to this? I really like BC2, but haven't been playing it long.

Call of Duty will go head-to-head with Battlefield 3 in 2011.

The third game in the series, which will be shown to press during the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco next month, is set for release this coming fall, Electronic Arts confirmed.

The publisher revealed the first teaser trailer for the game on its official website tonight. The trailer, which contains no actual gameplay, displays quick cuts of helicopters, ground troops, tanks and fighter jets.

Additional details courtesy of the official Battlefield Blog confirm a full single-player and co-op campaign, jets, prone, and 64-player multiplayer for the PC version. The Frostbite 2 engine will power the game and a Limited Edition will be revealed around GDC.

Developer DICE confirmed earlier this morning it was canceling the release of Battlefield 1943 and the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Onslaught pack for PC.

For those of you who were playing on the Caspian Border servers, they changed the password.

It was "sexyelevator", might still work I didnt get to check them all.

I can't fly a chopper if my life depended on it...

Will there ever be a shooter w/o campers? People need to be automatically killed off for being in one spot for 2 minutes, moving or not.

Just got done destroying some people with my cousin. I went 40-25 (Ace Pin baby!) and armed over half of the MCOMS. My cousin got the rest while I covered him.

This is starting to grow on me a bit. I think I was just upset about the mandatory ass kicking you receive when you start any Battlefield game. The one where you start off with no perks, no sights, nothing... Prepared to have your ass handed to you right off the bat. Once you play for awhile, it'll even itself out.

A few notes:

- The Tactical flashlight is a pain in the ass. Blinds whoever you shine it at, friendlies included. Learn to shoot at the light because it'll white out your entire screen.
- You earn sights for a gun by using that specific gun - not the class it is tied to.
- If you're used to BFBC2, this will throw you. The medic is now the ammo supply guy and the assault guy now has a defib and health.
- The sniper spawns with a radio unit a.k.a. "The Mobile Spawn Point," place it on the field, and you and your squad can choose to spawn there until the enemy destroys it. Stays in place even after you die. This has been a huge help in rush. On offense, I'll sneak behind the enemy lines, get close to an MCOM station, lay the radio and have a ton of reinforcements nearby. On defense I'll lay it close to the offense's spawn, then spawn in with a shotty. Knife kills and buckshot to the back are my main weapons.
- It still appears you can only get 4-people in a lobby before a game.
- I ran into a DICE quality representative today asking about glitches and if we've encountered any and just how our play experience was going. I talked to him for about 5 minutes. Nice to see they are working with the community.
- You can go prone again! Nothing like belly-crawling up to an enemy position and then popping up right in their face and blasting them.
- Off the bat, I've really taking a liking to the semi-auto sniper. I attached an ACOG to it and use it as a battle rifle. Knocks guys down in 1 or 2 shots most of the time.
- Knife kills take awhile. A whole animation plays out now of you jamming your knife in their neck.

I want to play this.
The knife animations took a while in BFBC2 also.

In this, you actually grab the guy, pull his head back and jam the knife in. Much longer than BFBC2 and you're vulnerable while you do it.

Thanks! I checked again and it's not up to download yet....not sure what time it will be.

Imagine this simpleton playing a BF3 game where squads are actually using tactics and vehicles, he'd be even more lost and eager to cling to the twitchfest that is COD.

I Guess the fanboy in me came out a little.

This.

I've never played a BF game, but that shit could get real old real quick, if that's how this game is played.

There is no more camping in BF2 than there has been in any of the COD games.

Watch when the new MW3 comes out. The first week, everyone will be camping until they get the hang of the maps.
