What was up with the RC bomb robot? lol. Could be an interesting way to disarm mines/explosives maybe?
 
The rose is clunky and slow and will get you killed a lot. I prefer the "q" spam by far. I hope that still works, but the popup menu is just for none object based commands like "I need backup" or "Need Mortar strike on that target."

I agree. I liked the ability to say different things but not when it takes up half the screen.
 
Commo Rose has been confirmed!

From Twitter:

L_Twin (KM Troedsson)
Oh BTW, like I just confirmed in my first interview: There will be a commo rose on PC in #BF3 but it's not in the build shown at #GamesCom.

It's not fake & it's on his Twitter feed.
 
Any mention of Joystick support for the aircraft controls? I might be using a 360 controller for that if it is the case.

Nothing as yet confirmed but I suspect it will be in.

BC2 had joystick control for the choppers so I presume BF3 will, hopefully at a better rate of support.
 
Man the jets move SLOW. But thats ok. WE GOT FAST MOVERS!

Well the move at what you really need them too in this game cause if they moved as fast as BF2 then you would never kill them unless they have the heat seeking rockets like on BF2

Which they should. Because at that speed they are almost at stall.
 
I rewatched the video and they are moving quite fast. I would like to see some footage of someone shooting a RPG-7 at one. That would be funny. I have a feeling that this game is going to spawn ALL types of crazy stunts like in BF2

If jets moved at full speed, they would be useless in the maps cause they would be in and out of the combat zone in less than a second. Think about it, let's assume they are moving at stall speed, which we will say is roughly 150 mph (I based this off of an F16 stall speed that I googled and click on the first link that looked good, so complain). This could be way off, but whatever. That means they move a 220 feet per second. You would be unable to effectively engage anyone at that speed for a sufficient duration of time. For fun's sake they had to slow them down.

inb4 mailman flew jets back in Vietnam or something

Also, add me to the Clubhouse member list.

Recording of the press conference, DICE only, shows the playing of co-op.

Too many g@ys working in DICE (including the sound producer) ? and yeah, what's up with that "1....2...3...shoot" crap, they sounded like 5 years old kids who never played video games before :D

EDIT: man, now that I think about it, I miss the BF2 main theme soundtrack, this Terminator rip-off tempo is annoying.
