WhenKittensATK Posted August 19, 2011 Posted August 19, 2011 (edited) Some random chatter from Twitter: No, a person killed immediately after a revive cannot be revived again. Possible pistol customization in the future. You need to fall a min dist before you get to open a chute. About 3 or 4 stories. And it has to open fully to slow you. Controllers are supported. Aim assist is not available on PCs.

But I wouldn't be surprised if they made Battlelog mandatory. Edited August 19, 2011 by Krazyxazn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhenKittensATK Posted August 19, 2011 Posted August 19, 2011 (edited) Random Twitter Chatter And yes, we are working on team play communication features for ALL platforms. Not going into specifics right now. Players and vehicles in smoke when it detonates are spot immune for a few sec. Yes, there's plenty of ways to reduce your muzzle signature, it's a gameplay feature. People that hate on the Battlelog menu should've tried the Alpha. Really sleek. ============ Dun...Dun....Dun.................. Battlelog IS the PC main menu. You go straight from Battlelog to playing. No splash screens, no menus. Just straight to the playing. Even with this restriction, this game will still be a beast. I wonder why don't they just integrate Battlelog into the game menu and still have the same interactions of Battlelog from a web browser outside of the game. In their defense using Battlelog to find and join servers is pretty fast. Even if you had to exit the game to find a new server. I do hope they give us an option to edit "Options" outside of the game. Stuff like keybinds, video, audio, and etc. Edited August 19, 2011 by Krazyxazn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhenKittensATK Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Random Twitter Chatter: Jet ammo is unlimited. Is balanced through reload times Branzone.com has been chosen to host Battlefield 3 Ranked game servers. We're in the process of confirming the details. Pre-orders soon! We have long term support plans for BF3. Can't say any specifics right now... other than Back To Karkand! M1014 extended tube is an unlock (shotgun; higher ammo capacity) Punkbustersupport including PB Screenshots Close cooperation with Even Balance Squad Menu in the GamesCom version is not final yet Team Deathmatch is coming for all 9 announced maps Max. 12 vs 12 in TDM Same classes and customization in TDM as in the other modes Functional ingamemenu with scoreboard, squadmenu, suicide, options etc. 24 player maps for console are scaled No dynamically alligned map size based on the numbers of players No public server files, reason is DICE' anticheat strategy Ingame messages to buddies in the friend list No new info about the batterecorder question yet Remaining tickets will be shown after end of round in the final game Autobalance similiar to the one in BC2 No new info about pre-order yet There is no final decision about origin and the number of soldiers yet Splitscreen on console is not possible due to the hardware limits on console HUD: tanks in the rotation of the machinegun is shown in relation to the main gun. HUD: In tanks, there is a range to target indicator below the crosshair. HUD: tanks have a (big) crosshair in the 3rd person view (driver) HUD: thermal image for the helicopter gunner (right click). Minimap: Three zoom levels, so far no complete overview, only a larger minimap. Suicide: when using the function we could see a "Thumbs Up" version of the player model. Growler ITV: when driving off-road the front pane goes up and down. Jets sometimes seem to be a bit dull. We shot down two enemy jets with the Super Cobra (1x pilot gunner, 1x). Impression: kill-assist points = percentage of damage dealt. Fact: kill-assist points vary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhenKittensATK Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 Random Twitter Stuff: Q: Will there be multiple TDM map layouts for some maps? A: Not at launch. We are focused on making all modes on all maps. Q: Which weapons will be "All Kits" weapons? A: Shotguns and PDWs (pistols/smgs) Q: Bullet drop for all weapons or only sniper rifle? All platforms? A: For all weapons and all platforms. Q: If camping snipers have glint on their high zoom scopes, what about other classes camping? A: Glint is based on the scopes. So an AR with the high zoom scope will have a glint too. (not sure which scope they are referring to, pass 4x or minimum 4x?) Q: Can you confirm the scope glint only shows to the player actually being aimed at? If not, is this being considered? A: Yes it's directional. Q: Are knifes still going to be 2 hit kills to the front like they were in the Alpha? A: Yes Q: Will prone and crouch prevent claymores from exploding? A: Yes, both Q: Will all weapons be possible to use silencers on? A: Not shotguns, pretty much everything else. Some are more effective than others. Q: Hi, will BF3 ship with a benchmark to test your PC for performance to compare the results with other systems, cheers. A: no benchmark mode Q: Are there faction-specific weapons? A: Yes, you unlock the other factions weapons when you complete a kit. Q: is there gonna be an extra high graphic option in pc version pushing evertyhing to limit ? A: It's called Ultra settings.
