OH MAN THAT IS SO...absolutely inconsequential to the larger scheme of things.

-Several editorials (DToid even?) getting hands on

OH SHIT MAN.

This reminds me of the time the cheerleaders put a picture of my dick in the school yearbook and told everybody that, no, it was just a typo.

:blushes:

You totally lost me in your sarcasm, but still made me laugh. Maybe I should have added (which
I will edit) that the editorials are getting hands on during the upcoming GDC2011. So you know
there's going to be a shit ton of previews straight after.

Also, 1st post edited/updated.

Prone most likely means PS3 buy and not PC for me as Dolphin diving via marcos in BF2 was insane.

I will be buying this game day 1 no matter what.

You're welcome.

I read that Dolphin diving is DEAD so that is AWESOME!

The only thing that sucks is 24 ppl PS3 64 ppl PC.

I will have one buddy who buys it on PC vs 5 that get it on the PS3.....I want it on PC more

You're welcome.

Better link here as I found that you can not read the pages that you posted without zooming in.

Yeah, right before you posted that first link I was on the virge of hitting 'submit' to a GT page that
had the pages uploaded in a readable size. Thanks again.

I was really annoyed with the first page in the whole article. 12V12 for console again. I know what
FB2 is capable of and I know what the 2 consoles are capable of, but I have a feeling that they're
(DICE) being cut off at the knees by Sony/MS because of bandwidth. Otherwise we should have
atleast 16V16/32. At the very least.

I am disappoint. But still of course excited. Argh.

You could get the 64 player supported pc version?

I thought it was 32 online?

Is it really only 12vs12?

Guess I have to buy my $2,500 PC a little early then as I need to upgrade for Diablo III but didn't plan on getting a PC until then.

Says 64 on PC.

[Mix]

Sorry I meant for PS3.

I've heard 24 and 32....24 will suck but what can you do.

Actually just found this and it says its not set in stone @ 24 people as Dice just said that past console games had no complaints...

[theredpepperofdoom]

I read somewhere that Xbox Live couldn't handle anything more then 12v12 so that's why it's so small.

[DualFace]

It's still actually being speculated (possibly in vein) that DICE could actually have the power to change the
player count (for console) that was printed in the GI issue....so, I'm now wondering---GDC hopefully will let
console owners know one way or the other.

Also---this just in! GameInformer website: DICE interview: 'Building BattleField 3'

[Mix]

Hopfully Dice makes it at least 32 online for console then!

Watching link....NOW!

So that first batch of screens from the issue of GI were nice, but here are some CRISPY CLEAN ones
of the same demo from PlanetBattleField!

Also! Take a tour with GI of the DICE studios!
