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.

I think I'm going to browse the servers and only filter on U.S. servers. Perhaps that'll help. I haven't checked, but i wouldn't be surprised if on the games where I was having trouble with the number of rounds to take down an opponent, was a result of being on a server super far away etc.

I'll give it a go, and see if I notice a sizeable difference etc.

If you go from a Hard Core server to a Core server the difference is staggering for me. I much prefer to play Hard Core, but last night there weren't any up at all. Hard Core mode is a touchy subject for some, but I love it in comparison to Core mode. Filter your server browser to only search for Hard Core mode.

what is Hard Core mode? Can you still play game modes like Rush & Conquest in hardcore?

In hardcore mode it takes fewer shots to kill someone (also takes less to die tho) spotting is manual and depending on how the server is set up there is no kill cam. Also no third person view in the vehicles. Oh and there is no diff in the game styles...Rush, conquest, and so on...all that is the same

And friendly fire is on, which is a lot of fun when you get run over by your teammate.

Oh yeah...that's a big one I forgot!

Can't go around randomly chucking grenades in HC mode either.

last night was a busy one on the 'Field.

I noticed yesterday there were no Hardcore servers at all showing up in the US.

I'm going to try to order some PX21's here in a week or so. I'm tired of flying blind/not being able to communicate.

and I'm sure the sound is better with them on too.

No one communicates anyway.

It's not about KDR, brah. It's how much you actually do to help your team.

I also had 2 savior ribbons. I helped my team a ton! Oh well. A thankless job, just like being a mod.

Wasted tons of time last night playing Squad Death Match trying to get the assignment done that requires 5 wins...stuck at 2. I'm just not that good at simply getting kills...plus your squad makes a huge difference and you have to get pretty lucky with randoms.

That's my bread and butter, man. I dominate SDM. I hate TDM with a passion though. /shrug
