Two Minutes Gameplay from a Singelplayer Mission

[Original Article]

Animations look a little rigid and I hope the voice acting gets a little better but it did say "pre-Alpha" at the start of the video so it should be all good.

Other than that...wow...just wow. I love the build up to the ambush. Seems like they are going to follow what medal of honor did and have combat feel meaningful against a believable amount of enemies. As apposed to call of duty's clown car style of "70 people to a house" gameplay.

Looks very promising so far, but I'm curious how the frostbite2 engine plays. Had always this feeling in Bad company 2 that my player character was gliding across the ground, not to mention the latency online. Lots of times you kill an enemy at the time he kills you, which can get pretty annoying.

I have to admit BF3 does look promising. It seems that it still retains the original style.

What I noticed:

Squad based SP - Awesome! Very realistic looking.
Unlike Bad Company style, where it doesn't seem to be all that realistic. Although, humorous actors but it doesn't cut it.

Graphics is awesome.

I am a bit iffy about the gun. Looks BO like or COD like. Hmm...I guess this shouldn't kill me. The aim down the sight is no longer like "full screen". More like COD.

Nonetheless, looks good.

I still miss the commander feature.

Anyways, hope to see more goodies.

I love the dragging friendly after they die. This was supposed to be in Brothers in Arms Hell's Highway, but they scrapped it to make it more Gears of War like, with a cover system. Nonetheless BIAHH is a very good game.


Keep up the good work and offer more authentic stuff to the table!

Wow, that looks great. It's probably the PC version, judging by the way the player aimed and looked around. If this is pre-alpha and looks this good, then it will be a masterpiece when it's launched.

@HyBr!d: in BC2, killing your opponent while he kills you is not necessarily because of lag; it's a game feature, one that doesn't exist in older games (CS, older CoDs etc); but I like it, it adds more realism
sure, the game is laggy and the netcode could have been more optimized, but it's not that bad

@sam: I don't think that guy was dead, just wounded; what would be the point of dragging a dead teammate to safety ? Also, I think he's the guy that says "I'm up. F*cked up real bad, but up" at the end of the battle.

Yes it is, look at the AWDS keys showing when the player pull the soldier to safety...

Assuming this is real untouched (no post processing by playing back a demo) SP gameplay then Frostbite 2 is looking very sharp. Best part for me so far as to be the Player animations... beats BO mocap by having much higher resolution player models against lifelike animations.

@cskiller86

I didn't actually mean that. It was just a figure of speech. And there is nothing wrong with dragging dead bodies. You got to bring them back to the States so. Nonetheless cool feature! Should have stayed in BIAHH!

PC preview, PC best graphics, truly shows the best graphics.

I don't really like the post processing. That's the bloom right? I don't like bloom. It doesn't really matter. This can be turned off anyway.
