EA leaves E3 in a smouldering heap of rubble thanks to Battlefield 3's spectacular Frostbite 2.0 engine...
Publishing giant EA has firebombed E3 with more details on Battlefield 3 than you could possibly have hoped for including a release date, PC system specs, and multiplayer footage.
First-up, the release date: Battlefield 3 will launch on October 25th, which puts it two weeks ahead of Activison's Modern Warfare 3. Second-up, the PC system specs which are listed below:
Minimum Specs:
- OS: Windows Vista or Windows 7
- Processor: Core 2 Duo 2.0GHz.
- RAM: 2GB
- Graphic card: DirectX 10 or 11 compatible Nvidia or AMD ATI card.
- Graphics card memory: 512 MB
- HDD: 15 GB for disc version, 10 GB for digital version
Recommended Specs:
- OS: Windows 7 64-bit
- Processor: Quad-core Intel or AMD CPU
- RAM: 4GB
- Graphics card: DirectX 11 Nvidia or AMD ATI card, GeForce GTX 460, Radeon HD 6850
- Graphics card memory: 1 GB
- HDD: 15 GB for disc version, 10 GB for digital version
In addition to all of this, the folks at DICE were even kind enough to dish out a new multiplayer trailer, and some new footage that puts the game's super-impressive Frostbite 2.0 engine through its paces (both shown below). We're sold already.

Another point to make post 63 even if you have pre ordered it ( which i very much doubt ), they don't take the payment from your credit card until the game is released

Let's get one thing straight with Battlefield 3: EA has only acknowledged its existence briefly in a financial conference at this stage. There has been no official announcement containing a press release and assets from EA yet.
How post 63 managed to make a pre-order on the EA Store is beyond me. I certainly can't find the directory on the website now. Sounds like porkie pies to me.

usually a preorder doesnt require full payment but i doubt that EA is making a huge amount of intrest from just £15, other than that £15 for a new game is some what of a bargain, even if you have to wait for it.

I preordered 3 for PC at 14.95 from EA Store months ago. Hope they are loving the interest they are making on my money :-(

I'll be building a new gaming PC for Battlefield 3, and I hope its all DX 11, and uses the destruction 2 Frostbite engine.

To reiterate the posts below, we can't even be absolutely sure that the game is still in development, let alone when it's going to release. Clearly DICE has been working on a Battlefield 3 over the last few years though...
