[BF3] Battlefield 3

[Tecnho]

Well I just got back from the Euskal encounter, and these days I received an email that gave me great joy, it was an email from DICE with an invitation to try the BF3 Alpha which I have access to until August 1, and you can't see how much fun I'm having, I haven't played much since I haven't dedicated much time to it but just enough to know that it's going to be a great game, it's clear that many things need to be polished but I'm impressed.
The gameplay has improved a lot since BF2, at least now with the sniper you shoot them and with 1 or 2 shots you kill them hehe, the sound is spectacular, it's very well done, depending on where you look you can hear where the shots are coming from, environmental noises and such, I haven't been able to see much destruction since the only map available is metro Paris and there are no big buildings but I've already destroyed cars and metro turnstiles and it's very good.

There were only one vehicle, an amphibious one like a BMR that you can't believe how fast it runs and how it hits with the cannon, then something I liked and it's a very good detail is an unlockable for the support class, it's a bipode that when you lie down you lean on it and makes the rifle a more precise and fixed weapon, the reflections of the sights are also very well done, and lying down and crawling and seeing how the weapon moves gives it a lot of realism, in short there are a lot of details that I've been noticing that will make this game a delight, let's see the BETA in September how it is and on the 25th of that same month we'll be able to enjoy the game which I'm already looking forward to.

Wow, sends from the Alpha Enjoy it for my god, hehe. The truth is that a few days ago I read comments about this Alpha version in another forum and it makes my mouth water.

Well, we haven't been playing Bc2 for a while, let's see if we can get back into a gaming binge. I've been on vacation, and a bit lost these weeks.
On top of that today I got a badge for my i7 (I'll see if I can show it off a bit by the way), if you read H2m you'll know what it is, haha. Let's see if I can get the equipment ready and see you some afternoon

Regards!!

[Tecnho]

Well this weekend I'm on a getaway in Asturias, but next week we'll play some Neptune games, BF3 is great and it's only an alpha but the details are amazing and as I unlock things it's impressive.
Now I'll spy on you to see what you've bought, I'll get rid of my 1366 soon and I'll let you know :p:p

PD:

Did you change your DFI for that one? I suppose it was to change the format. Let me know how it goes, I was curious to see that model.

Yes, well…you know I really love Gigabyte, but this one I got I liked. I read reviews and I was convinced, plus the price was great, considering that yesterday I saw it on Alternate for 183-5€, plus I have a three-year warranty.
Anyway, the matx format was giving me a lot of problems, so I solved it and I'll push the i7 with OC right away xD

Well, I'll give you more details, otherwise we'll mess up the BF3 post, you're making me want it more and more!!

I also received (today) the invitation to the Alpha, but it says it's until August 1.
I don't feel like downloading and playing it for only two days knowing that what I'm going to see is not binding. I prefer the final surprise.:D
What I did like was seeing this table of requirements:

RECOMMENDED SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS FOR PC
OS: Windows 7 or Vista (SP1)
Installed: Origin
CPU: Quadcore @ 2.0 GHz or higher
RAM: 4GB or higher
Hard drive: 7.25GB free
Video: 512 MB or higher graphics card compatible with DirectX 10 or 11 with the latest drivers (AMD 11.5 or later, nVidia 275.33 or later)
Sound: DirectX 10 or 11 compatible sound card
Internet: Broadband

According to this (although it's not binding with the final game) I won't have to change hardware.:)
Still, I'm already paving the way with the purchase of a new mouse and this BF3 pad, which will definitely improve my K/D ratio. :fumeta:

[backfuture]

I hope they remove the annoying sound of the bombs, it takes away all the realism that can be had from being in the middle of a shootout and hearing that…

With the pc of my firm it goes without problem, now I have 2x2gb 1333 7-7-7-21

With my signature pc it runs without problems, now I have 2x2gb 1333 7-7-7-21

I haven't tried the Alpha version, but I don't think those ambient sounds that try to create that war atmosphere are bad. Anyway, this is like everything, if it's too constant it can be annoying.

Well, I finally see you with 4GB friend backfuture, now you have a very balanced team and to enjoy for a long time

Regards!

[Tecnho]

This has already given me a bad feeling, since I see the planes rarely but I do see them and that is enough for me to grind my teeth to the ground with a month to go.

By the way, the requirements have been published. When it goes on sale, I will make a thread with everything organized.

Minimums HD 15 GB for the disc version / 10 GB for the digital version OS: Windows Vista or Windows 7 Core 2 Duo @ 2.0GHz RAM 2GB Graphics: 512mb DirectX 10 or 11 compatible Nvidia or AMD ATI card

Redomendados HD: 15 GB for the disc version / 10 GB for the digital version OS: Windows 7 64-bit Quad-core Intel or AMD CPU RAM 4GB Graphics: DirectX 11 Nvidia or AMD ATI, GeForce GTX 460, Radeon Radeon HD 6850

[XRAYBoY]

They have deleted the video. I suppose it will be this one:

[Tecnho]

If I was just passing it on to a colleague and it was deleted here I leave the same at 1080p

[cobito]

The requirements seem "reasonable". I might be able to run it at almost max with my current PC

[lforos]

Amazing video. After the blunder EA made last year with the competition "Cod:Black Ops" vs "Medal of Honor", this year it has many chances to win the confrontation "CoD:Modern Warfare 3" vs "Battlefield 3"... you'll have to buy both.....

[Tecnho]

And let me tell you, for the forums, the 2 will fall, Medal of Honor is a bit of a mess as the campaign ends, but Frosbite at least gave quality to the graphics department and at least the multiplayer is playable even if it lacks many things, but this BF3 is going to be the best, let's see if September arrives already to give it a go in the BETA and MW3 to finish the saga that has me so intrigued this year, I'm going to have multiplayer for a while.

[Tecnho]

Well, this week will mark the start of the Battlefield 3 BETA, probably on the 7th for those of us who bought the Medal of Honor Tier 1, and publicly on the 9th. If you're interested, register on Origin and they will probably send you an email to try it out for a month.

[CNCBCN]

@Tecnho:

Bueno pues esta semana arrancará la BETA de Battlefield 3 seguramente para el día 7 para los que compramos el medal of honor tier 1 y publicamente para el día 9, si os interesa registraros en origin y os mandarán correo seguramente para probarlo durante un mes.

eso de el origin ¿ de que va? no se si fue cuan do puse el router de timofonica o cuando instale el BBC2 que me salio lo de el origin

[Tecnho]

It is EA's program to download their games, like a Steam but from EA.

[CNCBCN]

I hope it's not like the two B BC 2 because, leaving aside the graphics, I find it too linear. I started it to see if it improved online and I put it on maximum difficulty and :nono: I'm still waiting for my "companions" to have their heads blown off, but it's clear that they are invincible

[Tecnho]

Of course they are invincible XD, and anyway that's not a battlefield even if it's fun, that's a spin-off for consoles that they later released for pc, but until they release the real battlefield it was playing 2 as I continue to do or try something different every day. And anyway where these games are funny is in online.

By the way here I leave a 1 min video with the weapon pack of the limited edition which I will have

[XRAYBoY]

@Tecnho:

By the way, here's a 1-min video with the limited edition weapon pack, which I'll have

How's the fuss about reserving that edition going? Do you have to download it when it's out?
I'm not much into downloading games. I prefer physical media (call me old-fashioned)

I was impressed in the video when he gets into the wagon and shoots him in the back... the way he twists backwards xD
And that machine gun with bipod doesn't seem to move much when shooting.

[Tecnho]

Let's see Xarayboy, I'm also one of those who like to have video games physically and more so these ones that I personally consider worthy of a shelf XD, if you pre-order from Game for example, it's the limited edition but in physical form like I pre-ordered, what's downloadable is the coupon for the extra weapons and the BF2 maps converted by frosbite 2, in the Alpha I had the opportunity to unlock the bipode and I assure you it's amazing how it takes away the recoil like hooks to a few and don't get caught reloading alucinas XD.

By the way, the Beta will be out this week or at most the next one will be public so register on Origin so you can see if you get the surprise email, those of us who bought the Medal of Honor Tier 1 are invited 2 days earlier, what a pass ¬¬.
