The Battlefield 3 Open Beta Is Coming September 29

By

Gamers will be happy to learn that the Battlefield 3 multiplayer open beta will launch on September 29 for PC, Xbox 360 and PS3. The beta map to be played ad nauseam is “Operation Metro.” Sorry, to those that thought the open beta was going to be on the “Caspian Border Map.” It pits two sides against each other in Rush Mode, where one team is tasked with destroying several sets of objectives, while the other defends. Access to the beta will be available on September 27 to PC players who pre-order the game through EA’s Origin service and to console players who pre-ordered Medal of Honor Limited Edition last year. The game is still on schedule to be released on October 25th, 2011.

First, our Frostbite 2 game engine is the foundation for the entire game and it is state of the art. It is an engine that marries the technology innovations developed at DICE with some of the best animation technology in the world developed by EA SPORTS in Vancouver. This engine delivers superior animation, graphics, scale, sound and destruction. You see, hear and experience the physical battlefield in a way thats never been done before. Battlefield is also the only shooter game that will let you jump in and out of combat vehicles on the fly. Soldiers in the real world go from jeeps to tanks to helicopters whatever it takes to accomplish the mission at hand. And after years in hiatus, Battlefield 3 ushers in the return of jets. During my visit, I took off on a sortie from the deck of an aircraft carrier in the gametalk about an adrenaline rush.
