    Honestly, I have to back to TBC to remember when I was this pumped for a release.

    A group of us used to play BF2 and SF at a LAN center years ago. We played SF competitively and this just bring back those amazing times.

    Finally an official Origin ID changer - a shame I cannot select the name I used for another EA game...

    I still think that it is a load of crap that we can only have one soldier. I hate the fact that our name is tied to our account name as well. I'm actually baffled that they haven't they have simply allowed use to make random soldiers.

    Ye, I´m kinda sure you will.

    This lucky SOB got his hands on an early copy, no idea how but here's his unboxing:


    So it looks like people who PO'd BF3 get early access to ME3

    He also got some gameplay from singleplayer I believe(?), yes this is a SPOILER so watch at your own risk:

    Before the official ID changer I had written to the support in an (failed) attempt to change my ID.
    Had the following discussion with the EA support (in Danish, but translated it below):

    EA: Jeg kan så forsikre dig at hvis du har planer om at få det fulde Battlefield 3 spil, så er du i stand til at navngive din soldat det navn du nu ønsker han skal have.
    Me: Kan jeg så også oprette flere "soldater"?
    EA: Ja du kan sagtens oprette flere navne/personaer/soldater/brugernavne. Hvad vi nu kalder dem

    Translated:
    EA: I can assure you that if you plan to get the full Battlefield 3 game, you are able to name your soldier the name you want him to have.
    Me: Will I then be able to also create several "soldiers"?
    EA: Yes you can easily create multiple names / personas / soldiers / usernames. Whatever we choose to call them.

    However, since he was such a failure in regards to helping me out, I'm not sure I can completely trust what he wrote. But let's hope so. :-)

    I have one doubt:
    I pre-ordered my copy through Origin, I live in Italy, so Europe. Will I be able to play on 25th or 27th?

    Also, today was announced a new multiplayer trailer

    28th for Italy. They locked them so that you can't play earlier. (Atleast EU can't play on 25th, not sure if Italians can cheat and play on 27th with rest of europe).

    According to the BF twitter they're releasing a new trailer today that is supposedly better then yesterdays one, if that's even possible!

    "You thought Wednesday’s multiplayer trailer was exciting? Our explosive Battlefield 3 launch trailer airs later today. Stay tuned! #BF3"

    edit: derp I didn't notice the above post :x

    edit2: Apparently this new trailer is going to be for Single Player

    I'm teetering on the brink of buying this, but i have one more question...

    Will this game feature a co-op mode for the campaign? (which i don't hold much hope for it doing) or any sort of 2 player content like the Spec Ops in MW2?

    It features a co-op that is the only way to unlock some of the weapons for multiplayer.

    Not sure if it's campaign or random missions (like in MW2), but I got the impression it's the campaign

    Yes.

    Someone answer me this.

    BF2 - F-35
    BF3 - F-18?!

    Downgraded from a 5th generation fighter to a 4th gen? *sadpanda*

    Where's the Sukoi T50?! (Yes, I'm aware this is Russian).

    I'm pretty sure that the F-35 was discontinued from service due to the insane cost of the planes.

    I'm still thinking about it...
