New Battlefield 3 Gameplay Video

Strap yourself in, we’ve got the first in-game footage for Battlefield 3 ready for your viewing pleasure. Below is a 3 minute video of the single player mission that was demoed behind closed doors to select members of the gaming press a few weeks ago. DICE have finally released it to the public and it looks absolutely astonishing.

They promised an almost generational leap in the graphics department and based on this video, I can see why they were so confident. Pay close attention to the lighting and the soldier’s animations, as they’re both particularly impressive.

  1. Damn I can’t watch it at the moment!

    Sounds like PC footage though, BF3 is probably the only game where I don’t wanna see the single player, show us some 64 player footage please and put an end to my irrational anxiety!

  2. Holy shit, that looks completely awesome.

  3. Woah… Can’t wait.

  4. And I jizzed in my pants.

  5. Having watched it now it looks nice indeed! And with a good FOV as it stands too. Certainly cheered me up after the atrocity that was yesterdays Crysis 2 demo.

  6. Looks awesome, I want it!!!

  7. im f*****d up, but im up.
    i said on prev bf3 sound thread, i hope weapons will be less cartoony… well they are lmao.
    oh my goodness, speechless.

  8. HOLY SHMOKE, this will never be as good looking on the PS3, I wish it did though !

  9. Look alright doesn’t it?

  10. God, this finally looks like a Battlefield should look ever since Modern Combat (Ps2/X0). I mean the weapon textures, lack of colour saturation.

    But do we really need a campaign in an online shooter? :P

    • I too will be buying this for the online game, but as any w**ker will tell you it is also fun to play alone ;)

    • It’s not like people buy FPS games for SP anyway. BF1 & 2 had no SP too.
