Top 10 things we wish to see in Battlefield 3

Via BF3 Blog, their top wish for BF3:

1: Commander feature

One of the wonderful ways in which BF2 and BF2142 stood out was the Commander feature: a player would be the commander of his team, with full overview of the map, he could issue orders to squads, had the ability to call in artillery strikes, UAV drones and drop supplies.

Top 10 things we wish to see in Battlefield 3

What do you guys think?

I think the BF2142 style of less classes and more flexibility is fine to be honest.

I agree with all of those.

Though there's a handful of things that I wish not to see in Battlefield 3... A killcam, 'quick-knives' and regenerating health are on the top of that list.

edit: They have a list of What Battlefield 3 needs to avoid too! :P

A quick streak White Line which shows the direction a sniper just shot at you.....

I agree with everything in that list but the cl@ss issue one. BF2 had too many ****s and BF 2142 had ****s that were near useless (recon). I prefer the balance of BC2.

No prone, thank you very much.

While I really like no prone in BC2, I think a true sequal to Battlefield 2 needs to see it. BC2 is like the faster version of Battlefield and thus prone could slow that game down. However I think BF3 needs to have prone to open up more defensive tactics.

Though it has to be done right. Prone can be really stupid if implemented improperly like Bf2 showed us.

personally, i hate snipers and the prone position scares me (i hate turning the corner and dieing automatically because three snipers are waiting for me. Not saying its only in bf, its in a lot of online fps) but i would love to see prone back. There's just something weird about not being able to go prone. I like to hide in bushes and its a lot harder in crouch.

I also like using prone to avoid sniper fire.

Thing No. 1
The same level of functionality as Battlefield 2.

That is all.

March 1st needs to come now, oh well, another month can't hurt.

Gameplay-fun factor: as a given.

If I could list just one thing out of it, it would be OPTIMIZATION...

If it was a really optimized FPS, (all around, latency included) I would be excited..

I really liked the troop carrier planes in Battlefield 1942. I just thought it was so cool to get a squad of guys in one of those and fly to the back of an enemies' base and parachute out. Then the guy flying the plane would fly back to our base to take the next squad.

Its a vehicle that probably won't be added though. I fear that they are just gonna keep dumbing down this great franchise (*cough* for consoles *cough*). BF2 and BF2142 did do a lot of things right, such as the commander feature, which I also hope gets put back in.

1 month, until maybe one of the biggest revels in gaming.

You make valid points.... but won't prone help them just lie down inside a bush and fire away...?FelipeInside

Depleted uranium.

MLA rifles.

Mini-TNW's

ROV's.

Flachette rounds.

BC2 did snipers COMPLETELY wrong. They're supposed to be spotters, taking out key targets. DICE turned them into the assault class by giving them, essentially, the best assualt rifle (VSS w/red dot), motion sensors, and C4 to top it off. If they don't want to use the VSS, they just slap a 4x on their M95 and now they have a one hit range of something like 30m+. If I recall, BF2/BF2142 sniper rifles didn't 1 hit even at point blank range.Swiftstrike5

It's not as bad on PC. On consoles, you literally get full squads of recon players sometimes.

I agree completely on your points of snipers. They are far to powerful.

It was far too easy to revive in BF 2142 and the amount of assault-medics out in the field almost always negated the recon's sniping ability.

#1- Bigger battles. Bring back the 60+ people battles of 2142.

2-bring back the commander

3-Bring back planes

Actually, I think I just want them to basically remake BC2/2142.

I need prone, excellent graphics, 64-players (minimum), a lot of weapons per class + weapon customization, perks, huge maps, lots of vehicles, lots of explosions. Melee would be cool too - just not melee like BC2's.KHAndAnime

no bots??

this list is bull$h1t
