No that would not help, however I believe that numbers speak louder than words.

Go on son, make PS1 F2P, i need something to do while I wait for beta


On Platoons... Higby said at GDC that there weren't likely to be any at launch as they didn't see the urgent need for them.. now there will be 100 player platoons? :P

Outfits of 500-1000 players seems a bit over the top. Means four outfits fighting on one continent at a time haha :P

Not if you're a big fan!

I was in my mind cursing that I couldn't read it any faster, it was interesting and informative!

And yes, the drone thing, having the map being more interactive and dynamic than just being a standard "map" is very interesting. I like it.

There are a number of dates, phases, milestones and other things sitting on a number of different calendars. Realistically we don't announce these because sometimes things have to move.

You guys are an extremely passionate community. We don't want to make a promise we aren't able to keep because a) we don't think it's the right way to treat your community and b) because I'm scared of what some of you might do.

Care to elaborate? As a former BF3 player (got bored after 250'ish hours) I'm sort of curious

LOL, so much win in B.

Still though like maybe not a DATE but a HOPED estimate would be great...

If somebody says "weeks away" I think:

Less than 2 months, greater than 2 weeks. If it was 2 or more months, some people would expect to hear stuff like "months away" or "a couple of months away." It's probably 2 or more weeks away, because if it was less why wouldn't he just say the massive hype building words "next week."

So by my inaccurate assessment, I think beta will start no earlier than two weeks, but before 2 months.

oh come now RadarX, we're not that scary. We certainly wouldn't pull out something like this!

One of DICE's upper management types said that they "nailed it" in an interview, and that is now used as a meme response every time a bug is discovered, a design decision is questioned, etc. Obviously this occurs within circles that are generally against the design direction of BF3(which is not a small faction) and not within circles that praise everything about the game.

NOTE: You asked about details on this expression, I answered, I'm not attempting to make this a BF3 thread.
