Welcome to the first in a series of Battleblog posts taking you all the way to the launch of Battlefield 3 on October 25th! In this blog series, you’ll learn more about every aspect of our biggest shooter ever. First out is an overview of our multiplayer philosophy together with Lead Multiplayer Designer Lars Gustavsson.

 



When Lars Gustavsson received the mission to lead the design of the multiplayer portion of Battlefield 3, his thoughts went to the fans of the predecessor, 2005’s Battlefield 2. He also knew the time was ripe to open up the game to a wider audience.

 

Hi Lars! What was the initial design goal you and the team set for Battlefield 3 multiplayer?
-- We thought a lot about Battlefield 2 and how Battlefield 3 would relate to it. The mindset at DICE during the development of Battlefield 2 was pretty much: “Play the game our way, or play something else

[/h2]

This comparison cracked me up.  I have yet to play Battlefield but will be picking up BF2 tomorrow and had planned to purchase BF3 in October.  Over the past few years I have been solely a COD player as it was the first FPS and only FPS I have really played.  However, I have been looking for more tactical/team play with a FPS and have heard good things about BF so I am intrigued to try it out.  I am sure this pic/gif comparison is accurate though.

How have others who transitioned to or just played Battlefield liked it in comparison to the COD series?

its much slower comparing to COD, the maps are bigger, wayyyy bigger. sniping is harder since there's a "bullet drop" the level changes since everything is destructible so if you find someone camping just blow a hole or the whole house. there's vehicles which you can ride on, which is always fun.

Only started playing FPS on the PS3 last year with Black Ops. This will be my first Battlefield game.

Question: Is this game more similar to SOCOM 4, except that it has a first-person perspective and vehicles/aircraft?

Sadly, I wasn't feeling SOCOM 4 that much, because of the third-person view. Makes a big difference with aiming.

^^^^
nah its just FPS view.

i didn't like socom, the gameplay was just weird to me. look at the youtube videos of the game is my suggestion.

 

[witnessmycalm21]

I cant speak for BF2 since i never played it.. Plus it was only for PC. Wasnt nearly the same on the console version
But heres a good vid for cats hoppin on BC2 and are new to the whole BF deal...

 

[zk1mpls]

^ nice, informational video. Seems challenging yet fun at the same time. Will have to wait for the beta release to see if i can learn it quickly. Thanks.

All of this sounds good and its the kind of FPS shooting I am craving...A bit slower and I prefer bigger maps to some of the really tight maps COD has. I also am really to see how the destructible environment plays with multiplayer.

This.. I bought BFBC2/Vietnam/SA Weapon crap all for 9.99 no tax

..

 

[los angeles fresh]

yo, get magicka. me and my boy need a third to run with because that mess gets hard after awhile lol. luckily i got it when it was 3 bucks and the dlc i wanted was like 60 cents. really fun game.

all ive copped so far is portal 2 (33), and magicka (5 something with the dlc) and just got COD4 for 10 (i feel ripped off lol)

i need to stop spending tho. just purchased 3 keyboards (waiting for two to arrive, one is for my cousin tho since it's pink) and almost 30 dollars in keycaps -.-

who knew learning how to build my pc would lead me into this world

everything is pretty much on point, im not sure if he mentioned but if you "spot" an enemy and called it out and that enemy is killed you get some assist points, medic class is the fastest to level up, if you defib a dead team mate its 50, if you heal team mates its automatic 10 points.

if we are going to clan up with this game, please let us not have 10 snipers in one game ha ha ha
