    Don't care about the single player; whats the multiplayer going to be like?

    too much walking, not enough shooting.

    that's SP, which is not core of Battlefield games.

    let's hope MP will live up to BF2 and to some extend BFBC2. and let's hope EA's backend "Plasma" servers are able to not crash.

    Again - not interested in the SP. The SP could be poo for all I care... BF is all about the multiplayer so let's wait to hear more of those details.

    It looks a bit COD'ified with that SP stuff, :D

    Is this going to be the next Crysis? :D As in, nothing will be able to run it, :D

    Part of me would rather that than it be the next Crysis 2. As in a complete and utter dissapointment ;)

    That engine has some serious potential it seems. The animation and lighting are gorgeous; looking forward to this one!

    Crysis 2 is still better. Damn! always using the middleeast why not try Africa, South America instead as locations. Illegal invasion of countys should not spark games

    Looks 10x better than Crysis 2. I'd imagine performance will be on a par with BC2. Can't wait.

    tbh i dont think it looks that different to BC2, which is a nice looking game obviously. Looks good I'll look forward to it, but after my experiences with the first month of BC2 I may well wait a while before buying, just to let them get a patch out and reconstruct the servers after the inevitable melt down.

    WTF???

    I D/L the Crysis 2 MP Demo last night, all I can say is CoDsis really... everything screams bloody CoD, even the dicks in the lobby's were asking who the host was.... yet they didn't seem to pick up on the fact that to get to the lobby, you had to browse the master server list!! tw4ts.....

    BF3 will silence the CoD/Crysis fan boys.... just wait

    Looks nice and I for one like single player. Its nice to play a lil without the risk of idiots in MP who think its funny to shoot you in the back.

    This will be no COD, this will go back to the roots of BF and will have some of the gameplay we enjoyed in BF1942, BF2 and even BF2142. The SP is just a way to introduce us to the characters but the MP is where the main focus will be for Developers and Players. DICE are using the movement developed in Mirrors Edge so players will be able to slide, climb etc.. and all this wrapped in the Frostbite 2 engine with destruction 3.0, can't wait. I've preordered my copy since about a month ago already lol
