Battlefield 3 Mega Hype Thread!!!!!! (56k no) Beta Update!

The BF3 beta was a "Wellspring of misinformation" :

Arthur Gies of Joystiq states that the differences between the beta and the final product are very large. The build he played wasn't final, but close to it. Noting that the gun-play had been improved, it takes a bit more to kill someone. In the BF3 beta, enemies simply fell over in a shot or two which was CoD like. The series is known for having it's true infantry battles where it takes skill, not just who got the drop first. This was also the case in BC2, it would take more than a pistol shot or two to take someone out. If you were snuck up on, you would at least have a chance.

I'm guessing there will be some sort of a Hardcore mode again for guys who want that type of damage. I also liked it. it annoyed me sometimes but that was more got to do with the sync been off and I would just drop without warning.

not to mention that snipers don't get the drawback of no crosshairs.

That was BC2. Maybe it will be changed for BF3. Fingers crossed
