Battlefield 3 Official Thread

Battlefield 3′s fifth expansion will be all about speed, according to information on CVG. They report that the four new maps added in End Game will host three new vehicles (including a dirt bike) and a drop ship that “provides support to ground troops with vehicle drop capabilities.” That extra pace should prove useful in the returning Capture The Flag mode. I’m looking forward to seeing the ensuing silliness rendered in Battlefield 3′s ultra-gritty environments.
End Game is the last expansion pack listed as part of the Battlefield Premium package. Make the most of it, it’s unlikely there’ll be any more before Battlefield 4 arrives toward the end of next year. Here’s the current feature list for End Game:
Key features:

• Four new maps designed for high speed combat and action
• Three new vehicles including the fast and agile dirt bikes
• New dropship provides support to ground troops with vehicle drop capabilities
• Return of the classic Capture The Flag game mode

Little more than that is known for now. Battlefield 3 players are currently busy conquering the shellshocked streets of Tehran in the recently released Aftermath update, which added four maps, a new Scavenger mode and a vicious crossbow.

Nice find, thanks for sharing.

Anytime bro like what im hearing so far hopefully theres another Night Map at least I haven't played BF3 for ages haven't even played the Aftermath maps yet (heard they are the best maps so far)

[John25]

Theres a short (PREMIUM) preview Vid of the new Dirt bikes being used on a new map. looks like a good map similar to Caspian Border.

would be good if you can flip one upside down and shoot someone Below.

That looks nice and fun.

Yes and with my favourite game mode of all time Capture The Flag

I wonder how they will implement the jungle setting? They must have created completely new assets just for that map.

DICE really know how to deliver an online experience.

Getting frustrated, I've not been on BF3 for a while so thought id fire it up today. I needed to update to 1.8 and it keeps failing on install.

There is nothing in the game data folder in the xmb and I've tried rebooting the PS3. Any ideas?

[SupraGaz]

In response to my above post it's now sorted. I went to work, got back this morning and PS+ had downloaded the update and it was ready to go. God knows that was wrong yesterday but all sorted now hopefully.

[TOM2x]

I guess EA has blocked the video.

Glad you sorted it.

Thanks mate and so am I. Why I haven't played this in months I'll never know. It's freakin' awesome.

It's that long it feels like a new game all over again

[crash323]

I found it that the updates made every gun more balanced and fair, sure ppl might complain but EA & Dice realizes they can't make everyone happy

[keefy]

God damn that ziba tower roof glitch just encountered it for the first time and spent about 20 minutes trying to get up there myself it is probablty pssible but there is a far easier way that involves a medic.


Cant believe DICE haven't fixed it even though they just released a patch last month.

Hey guys, just a quick question...

Just installed all the patches and back to karkand etc after a long time away from this game and just wondering if there are any official servers still? There's only so much killed by admin, kicked, switched team and massive ticket games one can take.

How does it play these days? last time I was the patches seemed to ruin something a bit more.

Cheers.

There are plenty of them, maybe try searching official.

It's gonna be sad when the last official map pack drops in March (or February for PS3 Premium players).

After all this time we are almost at the end of the product support cycle. It'll be double XP events only from then on out it seems...

I agree come to think of it:/ but hey we should be getting BF4 not long after it, I'd say a year tops after it.

[keefy]

Apprently the batlog got hacked a couple days go, first I heard of it.










I agree with the last post in this picture

"Killed by admin" doesn't always mean an admin of that server actually killed you, it can mean you accidently team killed on a hardcore server or the auto balance killed you to switch you to the team with less players.

[daLa]

I'll be honest, found that a little funny. And I truly don't mind if they hack their accounts, as long as they don't mess with the game itself by rendering unplayable for us or something like that.

[Wrath]

What a bunch of clowns. Can't even speak English properly but trying to act like the big guys. Classy.
