EA is bringing Battlefield 3 to E3 and has teased some of the new features we'll get to see -- specifically, features not simply anchored to the single-player experience. EA and DICE are finally ready to talk multiplayer and by the sound of this missive on the Battlefield Blog, multiplayer is getting quite a few improvements.
"Operation Métro" will be the multiplayer map available on the show floor at the LA Convention center at E3 next week and will highlight several new features in the multiplayer component: going prone; being able to temporarily disable vehicles (as opposed to just disabling them permanently the old-fashioned way with rockets); mountable weapons; "lay down suppressive fire and more." DICE is also adding a Team Deathmatch mode to the game, though for the life of us we can't imagine why. Does anybody even like Squad Deathmatch in Bad Company 2?
Finally, the single-player will sport a co-op campaign, though we're not sure if it's two-player or four players or what. DICE is also preparing an online destination called Battlelog that will let you "manage your friends lists, squad up, create platoons, use voice chat and follow your friends' progress in real-time, and more."

Battlefield 3 to feature custom dog tags
We’re at E3 and it sure is hectic here — we’ve checked out Battlefield 3 at EA’s press event, and we’ve got some new info regarding Battlefield 3: it appears the game will support a new feature where players can customize their dog tags — add signatures, etch their name and display some of their stats, as you can see on the teaser image above.
We’ll have a lot more on the new features in Battlefield 3 as E3 progresses. Stay tuned!

the actual live gamelplay of this from e3 only made me not want to buy the game. dude played for 10 mins and the first 5 were spent looking around from the top of the tank. the game definitely looks nice but again its too fucking slow for an impatient person like me. they said it will be an open public beta though so i will probably see what that is like.
