Of course, I hope this game doesn't suck. We need a good successor to Battlefield 2 and 2142.

Additionally, Riccitiello stated they have a $100 million marketing budget for Battlefield 3.

We'll see where that gets them. I think we're gonna have constant coverage, tid bits til release

It is still my favorite ever online FPS. I have almost clocked up 700hrs on this game. Best bang for your buck game period.

Dice to focus on the PC with BF3:

While the Bad Company games have kept the Battlefield name relevant the last few years, hardcore PC gamers have been clamouring for a true Battlefield game for over half a decade. With highly-anticipated shooter Battlefield 3, Swedish developer DICE is promising to deliver the biggest, best, and most beautiful game in the series yet.

We spoke to Battlefield 3 Executive Producer Patrick Bach, a man who firmly believes consoles are holding PC gaming back. Like PC gaming enthusiast, he is also dismayed by the fact that many game developers merely add anti-aliasing options to the PC version of games before calling it a day. Eager to buck this trend, Bach talks about how DICE will create one of the most visually-breathtaking games you've ever seen by using the PC as Battlefield 3's lead development platform. In this interview, Bach also touches upon amazing achievements with their new Frostbite 2 engine and touches upon the possibility of one day achieving photorealistic graphics.

Yeah... Personally I prefer 20-24 person games, with 32 maps seem overcroweded. 64 would be retarded unless the maps are HUGE.
