Only been getting the Karkand maps on Conquest Assault as well, whats with that? I still don't entirely understand it either, just seems like Conquest but one team starts with all the flags. Still haven't played Wake Island. Strike at Karkand (I think thats its name) is amazing, proper old school BF map, 5 flags, loads of buildings for sneaking about.

Started using the F2000 as well now, with RDS, Foregrip and Suppressor. Aint got much at long range, but is lethal at short and mid.

Yeah, there is actually pure Karkand servers if you like.
I was going to play hardcore, and went into the servers, with the filters set on only karkand maps.
And the servers you find named "B2K Something" = Back to Karkand.

An eagle-eyed gamer has spotted what looks like a hint that EA plans to launch a Battlefield 2142 sequel.

An Easter Egg on Battlefield 3 map Wake Island, which comes with the Back to Karkand expansion, shows the number 2143 scrawled on a wall.

As BF3blog points out, DICE has a habit of dropping hints at future games into existing ones. In 2006 it included Easter Eggs in Battlefield 2: Euro Forces and Armoured Fury map packs that hinted at a new game called 2142. That game, a PC exclusive, launched the same year the Easter Eggs emerged.

2142, which launched after Battlefield 2, was a science-fiction multiplayer-focused first-person shooter developed by DICE and published by EA. It was set in the 22nd century during a new ice age. Military superpowers the European Union and Pan Asian Coalition go at it.

Another Expansion?

I don't tjhink I've had VOIP problems, but for anyone that has...

Fix for VOIP coming up, significant batch of cheaters caught
In our largest crackdown yet, this week sees us banning a significant number of cheaters. Because you deserve a fair game.

Also, we have a fix on its way for the VOIP issue that some Battlefield 3 players have experienced on PS3. Expect your patch soon (stay tuned for exact timing), and have a great gaming weekend!

Battlefield 3 VOIP fix on PS3 slated for February 6th

As mentioned earlier, we have identified and fixed the VOIP issues on PS3 that some Battlefield 3 players have experienced. This fix will be released in a mandatory update of roughly 20MB that will be released on February 6th. You will be automatically notified of the patch when you start up your game.

ease note that some VOIP issues on PS3 might be due to incorrect setup of the headset you are using. If you are using the SLEH-00075 Bluetooth Headset, it must be recognized by your PS3 console by connecting it with a USB cable before play. Once connected, you must also enable the HQ Mode for this headset, which can be found on the XMB in the following location:
Settings
->Accessory Settings
->Manage Bluetooth Devices
->Press TRIANGLE on headset
->Information
->High Quality Mode

If you still have issues registering the headset, please go back to Accessory Settings->Manage Bluetooth Devices and delete all registered headsets. Once this is done repeat the above steps.

PATCH NOW OUT & IT WORKS!

Death from above
i started tinkering with this again...now the voip is fixed.

No more trusty INRV to use like i did on my SKS, but i found a lovely replacement in the shape of the Pka 3.4

My SKS sounds different too!!! And not for the better :(

And no more spawning as recon, hiding a MAV, then switching class on death....and still getting the benefits of the MAV. It now blows up on spawn every time..no matter wot class.

Same with the beacon.

Oh well...a justifiable nerf i guess.

Battlefield 3: Close Quarters is a themed expansion pack bringing the team play of Battlefield 3 to tight indoor environments. The frantic close quarters infantry combat is amplified by unprecedented high definition destruction, new ways to play, more weapons and added persistence.

Last week DICE announced a new expansion pack coming to Battlefield 3 called Close Quarters. Dropping the vehicles and wide-open spaces Battlefield multiplayer is known for, Close Quarters offers a more intimate experience where everything breaks. On top of the cuts, player count drops down to 16 players per map -- that's eight on eight.


Looks good. 8v8 sounds interesting, might be a good way to play together. Wander what modes are on these maps though.

One week earlier on PS3.


New weapons in the video;
Spas 12 (Held by soldier)
ACW-R (Being used)
L86A1 (Being used)
MTAR-21 is in the killfeed at 40 seconds (nice)
AUG at 50 seconds
Scar-l at 56 seconds
LSAT 1:05

Rumoured:
HK417 sniper
MP5K SMG
Scorpion SMG
CZ750 sniper
CZ75 pistol

Official thread said it'd only be 10 weapons so a few of above needs to go?

I also wonder if they manage to cram some objective based modes in to those maps.
TDM and SQDM seems obvious.

Weapons bug fixed on Karkand.
Quote:
 
Starting today, you can re-download a new, patched version of Battlefield 3™: Back to Karkand on PS3. This will fix the weapon animation bug that some of you have experienced. Head to PlayStation® Store or the Battlefield 3 in-game store to find and re-download Back to Karkand. This download is free of charge if you have already bought Back to Karkand. Note that changes made on our back end will make this re-download mandatory in the near future.

This is not the upcoming "Spring game update" that we published a change list for earlier on Battlelog.

The new version of Back to Karkand is live now in Europe. US will follow later today.
