Battlefield 3 Launch Changed To Today
After many people started using Korean VPN to get into Battlefield 3 early, EA sent a e-mail to everyone who pre-ordered the PC version of the game on Origin that they would get access to Battlefield 3 today instead of tomorrow. The console launch will still be tomorrow since you can only get a disc version and it wouldn't be right for people that went to the store to get it early, and the people who get it sent to their house get it tomorrow. Have fun PC players!
Battlefield 3 Command Rose Screenshots Revealed
Today we got some screenshots of the Battlefield 3 Commo-rose in action. Commo-rose is a way to communicate with teammates on PC to tell them to say follow you. But there are some key features that were left out in this BF3 version compared to previous commo-roses such as asking for ammo. Asking for ammo is a critical feature in Battlefield since you need refills on ammo often, and when your not support, its hard to get more ammo.
