Battlefield 3 beta release date Sep 29
-----------The Open Beta starts September 29th on Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and PC. Those that have already pre-ordered the PC digital download version of Battlefield 3 through Origin or own the limited/Tier 1 edition of Medal of Honor for Xbox 360, Playstation 3 or PC, will have early access starting on September 27th. The Open Beta ends on October 10th.
On Playstation 3, the Beta will appear automatically on the Playstation Network Store. On Xbox 360, it will automatically appear on Xbox Live Marketplace. On PC, it will automatically appear in the Origin application’s demo page.
Battlefield 3\'s multiplayer matches see players take on one of four roles: Assault, Support, Engineer and Recon. The Assault class will be able to equip defibrillators and medkits, as was the case in Battlefield 2142. The mechanics of the light machine gun (LMG) have been changed to utilize the new engine: bipods can be deployed anywhere when in the prone position or near suitable scenery, and provide a significant boost to accuracy and recoil reduction. Suppressive fire from such weapons blurs the vision and reduces the accuracy of those under fire. The Engineer class will receive a flashlight that can be used to blind other players. The Recon class will be able to put a radio beacon anywhere on the map and all squad members will be able to spawn on the location of the beacon.
Several game modes have been announced, including Conquest, Rush, Squad Deathmatch, Squad Rush and for the first time in the Battlefield series Team/Squad Deathmatch.
The PC version of Battlefield 3 will not feature a main menu; instead the game will be launched via a web browser from the Battlelog web site. A server browser will be present in console versions of the game, however.
