This maybe a minority opinion but are they removing the profainity from multiplayer? Does the announcer yelling "They are fucking winning" really add to the gameplay experience? Kids are inthe other room and i hate using turtle beaches. Only reason i bring it up. Single player I can understand multi ..i just dont see how it adds anything.

edit: I guess not lol!! Just saw some more gameplay footage from E3.

A few are from E3. But if you watch closely, most of the footage doesn't have textures on buildings etc, so its alpha trial.

I'd be more worried about exposing the kids to scenes of graphic gun violence. It's an M rated game, use your head.

I had to laugh last night when I threw a grenade to knock down a tree and my character said, "There's a grenade for you, fucker!" He really hates that tree!

Well, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say it is rated Mature.

He said his kids are in the other room and he doesn't want to use headphones just because the game has to scream about who's fucking winning.

It is rather silly, and seems really out of place (to me). Not necessarily in the single player or even when someone gets injured or is pinned down, but the announcer?

I hate to be that guy, but it comes with the territory of the game. No, it's not an authentic military sim, but it's a game about war and swearing is a part of it.

Just turn down the volume if you are really that concerned with it. Or shut the door.

so he doesnt want to use headphones, but all the gun sounds and such are good for kids to hear then?

this is so stupid. It's a M rated game so stop whining.

Guys, I'm watching porn while my kids are in the other room, but I just wish they'd stop moaning. I don't want to have to wear headphones =(
 
dont know if posted:

Yet again, peeking around Battlelog, I found the gamemodes that are currently available for the map Siege of Shanghai:


Conquest
Rush
Squad Rush
Squad Deathmatch
Team Deathmatch
Conquest Large
Conquest Assault Large
Conquest Assault Small (most likely for PS3 and 360)
Conquest Domination
Obliteration (new)
Elimination (new)



Now, you may notice that there is a new gamemode called Obliteration.
It seems that Siege is the only map that makes use of that gamemode and currently there is no further information on it (no descriptions, no images, nothing).

Let the speculations begin!

-- EDIT --

Whilst peeking around I discovered yet another gamemode called Elimination.

Moreover, I found some more info about Obliteration.
More specifically, it seems to be a bomb-oriented gamemode (with several drop-offs) with the additional presence of a High Value Target.
Elimination seems like a CS-inspired gamemode, for attracting some attention from the eSports scene.
I haven't found any details at the moment, but the name itself implies that it is DM with no respawns.

Finally, the RU faction is still present in the game, however I cannot confirm if it will be a playable faction (yet).

Will this games realism hurt it?
COD is a gamey game, its comical if you think about it.

BF seems like a real simulation of chaotic war
I can only assume some War vets not being able to handle BF presentation.
BF is not realistic.

It's just less "wacky" than COD is.

if only it worked as intended...
i rarely finish a session of bf3 on ps3 without voice chat turned off, simply because some clown has to blast annoying music in the background or talk nonstop about stuff that nobody cares for.
Yeah I tend to live in party chat on my 360. I only have to listen to my friends.

Very happy to hear that it sounds like PS4 will have some kind of party chat system now.

I'll take no respawn TDM, but man Titan mode would be so great. I really hope Naval Assault does something similar.

Oh thank god, I thought they've replaced the bipod with the angular grip, but it's still there.

Also DMRs for all classes sounds nice. Always wanted that for BF3, I hated having to choose the sniper class for the M39.

Boat seems OP to me. I can feel a nerf incoming. And I still haven't seen the chinese main battle tank from the inside.
 
7:38: "Assist counts as kill 80"

So what does that mean? He did 80% of the damage that's why he go the kill? Seems a bit low to me. >90 or 95% would make more sense. On the other hand good for me as a (iron sight) sniper guy. I've lost so many kills with 98, 99 or even 100 kill assist!

Yeah, I was hoping it would be 90% or above. 80 is too low.

Considering 80% could take up to about 5 shots with an SMG, I think it's good.

It's not something that personally bothers me either way, but I think it's good to get recognition for the kill when you done most of the work.

No respawn mode? NO RESPAWN MODE?!?!?! A NO FUCKING RESPAWN MODE HOLY SHIT DICE I FUCKING LOVE YOU AND I WILL HAVE YOUR KIDS AND I WILL BE YOUR DUNGEON SLAVE FOREVER :D :D :D :D

I'm quite pleased.

Is the no respawn mode a team mode? I can't tell. It's why I love SnD on COD so much though, getting them 5 - 6 man clutches is so good.

That feature applies only for "Squad" assists and not for all assists. So its kinda balanced.

Do we know how much the headshot damage in this game is? Always seemed so little in BF3 and considering the recoil it's not worth aiming for the head with automatic weapons, only good for sniping.

Wow, pretty big file. 3.48GB in "Original" size and 1.69GB in 1080p (both mp4). Downloading right now, thanks.

Edit: The second thing he does in the video is turning down the settings from "Ultra" to "Low". What. The. Fuck.

I think it's obvious that someone wanted him to do that so they could see the very lowest baseline of the game. We've gotten enough direct HD footage on high to choke a horse, this was informative.

Last time I checked, it was kinda hard for children to work gunfire into everyday speech.

The amount of vicious SHUT UP comments that come whenever somebody wishes a violent game would stop cussing is totally bizarre.

Is basic empathy so hard to understand?

With high encoding settings? I must have missed it then. And even if he wanted to show the low settings, why the whole 45mins...
