Have a look at this guys: Quick peek of what we're cooking up for #bf3ak. Nice view, right?

Finally, snow in Battlefield 3! :D

Are you sure that's not sand instead of snow? Could be either unless they have specifically said it was snow. Either way that's a nice looking screen shot.

I-.. what? That's snow good sir...

He's right though. I've seen the map on the Machinima Live Feed of E3 and it looked more like sand than snow. Though I'm hoping it's snow. IF it's snow, then all we need besides snow maps are jungle maps. The jungle map in MoH: Warfighter looked awesome. It gave me that BC2 feeling tbh.

Yeah I watched that vid and it was deff sand...plus if it was snow surely it'd be on the tops of the mountains not in the valleys...rather bad level design if it is snow.

Not that DICE would say if they were or weren't working on BF4 yet, but...

Battlefield 4 exists only in the hearts and minds of our devotees, for the time being. ^LA

Although I think it's safe to say they will be working on BF4 and it's just a question of when and not if. I also hope it will be different than a modern military shooter.

Server / Gameplay downtime on July 18th

We will be rolling out an extensive upgrade to our game servers on july 18th. Unfortunately, in order to upgrade we will need to take them offline for a short amount of time.

What this means for you is that all online services - including multiplayer - will be down across all games and platforms beginning July 18th at 10pm PDT for about two hours.

Players will not be able to log-in to their games during this time, and those currently in-game may be affected as well.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

I'm not sure how I feel about the ac-130. I can see it easily unbalancing game play. If your side gets in it and also has awesome jet pilots to keep the other sides fighters off it that will be a whole lot of not fun for people on the ground. On the other hand, if the ac-130 dies if you merely sneeze in it's direction then it won't even be worth using. It will be like a hummer with turbo props, a flying death trap. I don't have much faith in DICE getting it's balance right.

As for BF4... I doubt that we'll be seeing it any time soon. End of 2013 at the soonest would be my guess. I think I'm okay with a new Battlefield game every 2 years though. Although I'm still hoping we'll see Bad Company 3 first.

Trailer looks good. Bit disappointed about Battlefield 4 though. I don't see how there can be much improvement in 2 years as opposed to the BF2 - BF3 timeframe.

Well, I don't think they need too long. I mean, BF3 is pretty decent as it is. A single player that's actually more fun would be nice though, but not something I'm really expecting from them seeing as I don't play BF for the story line.

There's improvements to be made sure, but I don't think there's anything about the multiplayer that needs an incredible amount of change or anything.

Managed to get my hands on the 60FPS 1080p trailer floating around. Here's what I found interesting...

No idea what this contraption is. Looks like a noobus-maximus. No doubt an noob's wet-dream. You'll also notice that the mini-map now displays the flag letters on the icons!

CPOW0l.jpg

Looks like some sort of super-tank (M1/US variant) with an extinguisher!

The super-tank (T90/RU variant) with armour-plating on the front! :smashin: And as the kill-feed reveals it's a Sprut-SD.

Click on the pictures for bigger versions :thumbsup:

    • Microsoft unveils new Surface Laptop with improved trackpad, Snapdragon X2, and more

      Not even an OLED display on the laptops. Also it seems that the laptop design isn't the same as the Surface Ultra model. Looks like bargain bin at high prices.

    • VirtualBox 7.2.10

      By Copernic · Posted

      VirtualBox 7.2.10 by Razvan Serea VirtualBox is a powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization product for enterprise as well as home use. Targeted at server, desktop and embedded use, it is now the only professional-quality virtualization solution that is also Open Source Software. Presently, VirtualBox runs on Windows, Linux, macOS, and Solaris hosts and supports a large number of guest operating systems including but not limited to Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, 7, 8, Windows 10 and Windows 11), DOS/Windows 3.x, Linux (2.4, 2.6, 3.x, 4.x, 5.x and 6.x), Solaris and OpenSolaris, OS/2, OpenBSD, NetBSD and FreeBSD. Some of the features of VirtualBox are: Modularity. VirtualBox has an extremely modular design with well-defined internal programming interfaces and a client/server design. This makes it easy to control it from several interfaces at once: for example, you can start a virtual machine in a typical virtual machine GUI and then control that machine from the command line, or possibly remotely. VirtualBox also comes with a full Software Development Kit: even though it is Open Source Software, you don't have to hack the source to write a new interface for VirtualBox. Virtual machine descriptions in XML. The configuration settings of virtual machines are stored entirely in XML and are independent of the local machines. Virtual machine definitions can therefore easily be ported to other computers.

    • UK to ban under-16s from social media following a six-week trial with teenagers

      By FloatingFatMan · Posted

      OK, now ask yourself how are they going to enforce that law? By requiring every single adult to prove their age and provide their legal identity documents to an UNREGULATED 3rd party company that already has a long track record of multiple data breaches. Not to mention, parliament have voted AGAINST this ban, twice, and Starmer is going ahead anyway. So, where's the democracy here, because that looks like dictatorship to me. The solution here is parental responsibility, not government control. Run some public service announcements on TV and UK social media teaching parents how to setup parental controls. That's already been proven to actually work. But the, this is not and has NEVER been about keeping kids safe. It's about control and monitoring. Watching what you're doing online and controlling what you can see and what you can say.
    • what other retro software do yall use

      By +InsaneNutter · Posted

      Interesting read. I knew the adware was quite controversial at the time, however never realised to the point The Guardian wrote an article about Patchou. I just said no and enjoyed his creation, I’d probably be a lot more wary of something like that today though.
