[SuperDerek66]

hhahaha...dingbat..

[capelf14]

smoke grenade??? ive been thinking that there may be one but is there.... i have yet to unlock such a thing...

[LightWthoutTheStatic]

It's laughable how wrong he was on a few things..... not sure where he got this info because I dont' remember them being released. No EOD bots for recon... no motor strike for recon...

[Kashudim]

@LightWthoutTheStatic He ASSUMED that EOD bots are used by recons...

[FruitofWar]

@LightWthoutTheStatic Look in the description, that's where he got his info from. They made some changes during the 3 months between this video and BF3's release. They obviously wanted it to be different from BC2, so they made it that way, and they saw that it was good. Yes, I did just make a bible joke. o3o

[Alczer3]

[danzad96]

[RABid07tc]

@Matimi0 lol to bad there aren't any claymores if bfbc2

[mw2vids4life]

@RABid07tc Do you not understand Battlefield 2 Modern Combat?

[Siguard35]

@Matimi0 the closest thing to claymores I remember in BF2 was the AT mine and I maxed out all of the kits.

[mcwhizzkid123]

@Matimi0 claymores , dont you mean mines or c4 cause i ain't seen no claymores in BF2

[qMKpEntertainments]

@TheMarksuperb he is talking about bf3 the whole time, thats why the name of the video is "Battlefield 3". gosh...

[ranio2O]

Hey retards, it says Battlefield 3 News...isn't he saying news? -.-

[TerriHogan1]

Radio Beacon is like the Tach inversion on Black OPS to spawn but it spawns your whole team there instead of just you.

[moto350alan]

radio beacon is for mobile spawn point

[DaFuLLReCoRdZ]

hä isnt it battlefield 2

[DaFuLLReCoRdZ]

boa diese kack tim und struppi werbung

[JumPInfectioN]

27 people accidentally hit the "dislike' button. dumbasses....

[XxSiosisxX]

@BOLLERguy Where does it said it was a BF3 gameplay?why dont you learn to read,noob.

[BOLLERguy]

thats is bfbc2 noob

[lfcspartacus98]

is this out??????

[nuclearthreat545]

the radio beacon is a tactical insert

[RPGHOST]

radio beacon is for spawning =]

[pindmoiangaba]

SORRY I WAS REALLY WRONG ABOUT THE RADIO BEACON

[BigAussieBloke69]

No people, the radio beacon is a mobile spawn point which the recon class can drop anywhere on the map. You can destroy them too, from memory off the beta I think it was about 80 - 100 points or something for destroying an enemy beacon. They are quite hard to spot so you need to listen out for them.

[thatchick328]

maybe da radio becon is used for an airstrike

[TheBuckyHD]

@thatchick328 im pretty sure your able to spawn on it

[GamerSeboo]

BF bad compagny 2

[Tonkeliponkeli]

@pindmoiangaba Radio beacon in BF3 is spawn point. When you spawn on radio, you will face 90 degrees left so you can put radio face the wall.

[englesledgehammer]

radio beacon is a deploy-able spawn location for squads

[megaTank68818]

Radio becon is a squad spon point only the recon may use/put it in a certain spot that your squad only can spon on it no other player from your team can spon on it only your squad

[misterpspdude]

hey everyone plz see my channle

[ComradeStrelok]

Plant and diffuse charges as well as spot with the EOD bot, useable with engineer. Recon class has Mobile spawn, UTGS(Mobile Radar), and MAV(Fancy UAV). Assault has defibrillators, and First aid packs. Engineer has EOD bot, Blowtorch(vehicle repair), Rocket laucher(SAM, Unguided, and Guided AT), AT Mines. Support gets Ammo, C4, and Claymores(NOT RECON.) Great video bro.

[TheMasterhimmy]

NEED GAMES? SHORT ON CASH? click my name and follow the description if you want to earn easy giftcards for amazon microsoft psn nintendo .walmart and more. i payed off MW3/BF3 and got myself a 3month this week for xbox live. It takes a little work but its real easy to do. Dont be a noob looking for "code generators" there really isnt any

[idkdamn978]

SOFLAM was in bad company 1 wasnt it? Radio becon is a respawn for your whole team.

[xianhsian]

SOFLAM already appeared in Medal Of Honor 2010....

It is used to mark target

[AKxPHANTOMx]

The radio Beacon provides radar/uav for a small portion of the map.

[B0SSZ0NE]

rewards1(.)com/101zone

get money now! so you can get BF3 FREE!

[FixMyAutos]

just to clear this up for everyone

Eod is for the engineer kitt

2334 mortar is for support kit

radio beacon is for recon kit

(i know this from playing the beta) and also i looked at some sites and they are saying mortars are in engineer kit but i have it on my tv that mortars are for support

[TheSerpant1483]

I'm hoping the bot will be like the UAV in bc2, with a sort of control area thats only available at certain times.

[greenmachine440]

Radio Beacon is for Mobile spawn point

SOFLAM was in Bad Company 1

[DimISTrus]

shit



[xRAWRER]

The EOD bot is for engineers.

[Kealbtl]

there is already a target painter in BFBC2 its a pistol

[lionOFjudah33]

EOD bot would be more up the Engineer's alley.

[arendsnoek]

camper!

[depholade]

How did that boat get up there?

[newstart2013]

unnatural..stressful..fearful.­.unconstructive..destructive..­..useless....humans are brainwashed to kill each other...sad...

[EARFORCEGAMEHUB]

No he was playing it on the pc you can tell by the way he chose his weapon closer to the end of the clip their was a little scroller bar that you only get on the pc version of the game

[MrFailNage]

Your playing this on a xbox or are Ps3?

[pelonjon1520]

the radio bacon...probably sum thing to listen on in the other players conversations or to jamm them who knows

[mengel420]

Unattended Ground/UG Sensors = deployable motion sensor

The CF UGS systems employ various sensor modalities including seismic, acoustic, magnetic, and pyroelectric transducers, daylight imagers and passive infrared imagers to automatically detect the presence of persons or vehicles, and transmit activity reports or imagery via radio-frequency (RF) or satellite communications (SATCOM) links to a remote Processing, Exploitation, and Dissemination (PED) station.

[TheParker1976]

You might know the answer to this,how are they going to stop the leg from overloaded servers with this game?I cant even play 1943 because the leg is so bad.

[tdog1810]

ur good

[BrandeynAndMicheal]

What I have heard was that the Radio Beacon, is actually spawn tool. As in, a set player is allocated the Radio and that player can set down that radio so the rest of the squad can spawn there.

[rutpip]

great me

[TheShellshock1992]

fuck get damn point shitttt

[Camcak3s]

@Charli3HM21 how do u know this

[Roost3rillusion]

The radio beacon is a recconisance gadget that allows ones squad mates to spawn wherever he/she places the beacon.

[Charli3HM21]

SOFLAM is a laser disignator for airstrikes. The SOFLAM "paints" a target to rocket luanchers, missles, and vehicles can see it. Radio Beacon is like the MW2 tactical insertion, you can spawn on it or at the main base. You cant spawn on your squad when its deployed. The EOD bot is for the engineer class. You can plant C-4, equip it with a M249 Machine Gun, and repair vehicles with it. The Micro-UAV is for Recon and is like the HOMEFRONT UAV. You can mark targets with it. For more info message me

[arbtter]

Jeez! the recon class gets everything!

[baddeadt]

im 13 to but we dont act in game like 8 we act 18

[TheNickNetwork]

I enjoy COD as a game, but the community is crap. i pulled 45 kills and 5 deaths in a CTF match yesterday, but i was still getting freaked out on. I'm swapping to bf3 because the game is better and the community is not terrible.

[harscombat]

i know this game is i only whated sins i played battefiel 3 i saw the air combat en ground.but battefield beats all the game thet ever made.i need same info.can wi use white jets.napalm bom or cluster bom?for ground suport?chea my harscombat thet is 1 white battefiel BC 3 i need some news:) ty

[shoopdawhooperful]

@harscombat Learn to spell you fucking 3 year old retard.

[TheNickNetwork]

@harscombat I couldn't understand half of that

[TheHornyGorrilaz]

its out tomorrow (supposedly) and i havnt recieved a key?? i purchased moh LE and got an email saying im on the vip list but no key? can someone PLEASE help me

[bballyohomie]

a radio beacon is a spawn point which you can place somewhere on the map which other players are able to destroy

[hamzagamerz]

all hail dice . dice is the best . it made the game that had just beated cod mw3 . dice has the best engine in the world and the best weapons . the best vehicles . now cod is boring because it has no vehicles only infantry . you know i was a cod fan but now iam a bf fan . i think that all gamers should become bf fans cause cod sucks . thumbs up if you agree

[cheeshuan]

@hamzagamerz LOL to think that you were saying how much you hated battlefield in the other videos.you know COD is actually good,it keeps ignorant 12 year olds from ruining battlefield.i am 13.

[BraedonBrad]

EOD: Explosive Ordinance Disposal... Not a bomb.

[Dhanijel1]

The hellacopter crashing at 1:07 is awesome.

[rutpip]

ino

[sircrazykings]

@Dhanijel1 in other words...Battlefield is awesome =)

[wanderingriverman]

Play on Hardcore....



[kevintheplaya]

this is battlefield bad company 2 and not battlefield 3 ..

[GermanMonkey16]

@kevintheplaya it never said it was Battlefield 3...

[Razor1993Turk]

does this mean that the game has Splitt Screen Feature?

[Rman1941]

I have not played Bad Company 2 so this may sound stupid. What if the EOD bot is controlled like the UAV?

[PsychedelicGayEmo]

Radio Beacon,I think a player will lay a little box down on the ground with a small satellite dish on it & enemies that are in the area that are chatting online will be highlighted on the players mini map or on the level its self automatically.making it for every time a enemy chats they will show up.Plus I think the Recon's mortar strike will not only drop bombs but drop smoke or maybe gas.either way it sounds very interesting.RESPECT DICE.ONE small STEP FOR MAN ONE GIANT LEAP FOR D.I.C.E......

[freestylerhus]

I swear the radio beacon was used for supply drops? (In bf2142) :O :O!!!!

[Stepupgaming2011]

Raidio Becon, Predator Missiles BF Style. who knows right? xD

[mlgseba]

Could be used to hear the other teams in game chat from a certain distance

[OwnedAlbertross]

is this a repeat gameplay? :P

[Matimi0]

@OwnedAlbertross Nope, all of the gameplay in my videos are different.

[OwnedAlbertross]

@Matimi0 ok my mistake :) i think it was just the opening with the f2000 and smoke, keep up the great vids

[darraghc123]

Excellent vid keep them coming , glad i subscribed!

[Matimi0]

@darraghc123 Will do and welcome :)

[RiddicksRevenge]

the radio thing might be used to communicate with other squads if they are in range of the radio

[djapster]

i have a feeling that the EOD will be for the Engineer Class...

[huhumata]

anyone else disappointed that you will have to pick a specialization for vehicles like in bc2 ?

[pseudogenesis]

You say 'actually' sooooo much in this video. ;)

[blackopsgrapist1]

lol retarded eod bots run into wall. btw the radio thing sets a target area for the mortar so the strike can cust be selected to auto fire on it

[xXBRSAXx]

@MrDynastywarriors7 i use it :D

[Matimi0]

@MrDynastywarriors7 No problem and the f200 is a beast.

[beyerballler54]

SOFLAM sounds like an airstrike sort of thing

[DeltaNovemberLima213]

@beyerballler54 Yes, if you've played MoH they use it to paint targets for airstrikes. BF3 will probably use it similarly.

[beyerballler54]

@DeltaNovemberLima213 That's what I'm thinking

[louisanmial]

can i get a link 2 the fact sheet as well

[Matimi0]

@louisanmial it's in the description.

[Deltateam210]

@Matimi0 You said Mortar Strike instead of 60mm Mortar which is what it says on the facts sheet, a debation is going on whether its a portable mortar tube (similar to Far Cry 2s) or like BC2s targeting, what do you think?

[Matimi0]

@Deltateam210 Yeah that's possible but I'm not sure to be honest.

[Deltateam210]

@Matimi0 Its was confirmed by Daniel Matros on his live Gamescom stream! :D

[FrankDaTank1218]

Actually we don't know if the EOD bot has a first person camera, you may just control it from your soldier's perspective. My guess is that its mainly used for disarming MCOMM's, retrieving/disarming enemy C4 (you could do that by hand in the Alpha), and getting rid of mines.

[Matimi0]

@FrankDaTank1218 It's confirmed that it can arm mcom stations and repair vehicles.

[Thecrazyhide]

@Matimi0 I take it it's for the Engineer then? Kind of makes sense, then again I wouldn't have been surprised if it was used by Heavy Assault (LMG guy), Recon or Engineer. :P

Thanks for informative vids man, love your work ! :D

Loving the changes in BF3, UAV, EOD bots and etc... awesome :P

Oh and Lazer Painter - do you know who will have that? I wouldn't be surprised if it's spread throughout all classes. :P

[Matimi0]

@Thecrazyhide Thank you! I'm not actually sure. It could be the engineer, assault or something everyone can use.

[07972507278]

please make more of these :)

[ritaLAX1]

Another great vid

[ritaLAX1]

@seimons1 ngt dropped all of their directors so he isn't with them anymore

[feelfidel9]

I <3 YOU MAN YOUR INFORMATION ARE GOOD KEEP IT COMING! <3 (completely homo)

[Seimons1]

Are you going to do videos for ngt in future havent seen any latly?

[FLiPGeNSnipeZ]

lol im to lazy to check out blogs for info on bf3 so i just goto u =D thnx for all the info and i think ur a great player aswell <3

[DMDx666]

ILY MATIMIO

[MrExodia1234]

In battlefield 3 there should be a flare gun, i don't know what it should be used for but i still want one in the game.

thumbs up if you agree

[iloveleg0s]

@MrExodia1234 Tf2 much? llol

[Jsilverstreak]

It seems like there is alot of equipment for recon which gives more reasons for being a recon and I don't want there to be a ton of snipers at once Theyre very annoying

[yoojoel]

did u win the game?

[TastyDonutHD]

I have an idea, how about colored smoke or flares for air strikes? Might be cool.

[jimmygott]

Thank god no more freakin circle strafing Helicopters that you can't take out unless you're lucky or skilled as hell to take out. Lock on anti-air missiles ftw!

[PhunnyConflicts]

Matimi0, I don't know if you caught this, but on the 2nd page, under Soldier Specialization, it lists: EOD EXPL Vest and Squad EOD EXPL vest. I guess EOD Bot will function sorta like the RC Car in BO? If it does... That's gonna suck because the last thing we need is soldiers being bush wookies and send out only EOD's to get kills x.x

[PhunnyConflicts]

EOD Bot does worry me too Matimi0. I really hope its not an overpower equipment.

[jhenney21]

Maybe the radio beacon is a placeable spawn point like in battlefield 2142. Thumbs up if you agree.

[Matimi0]

@jhenney21 hmm that's possible.

[Ri1seAgainst]

@Matimi0 SOFLAM is kinda in bc2 if you tracer a vehicle a V Alt wep attack heli or light tank can lock onto the tracer dart aswell as rpg and gustav as you may already know

[jhenney21]

@Matimi0 Its true. The radio beacon is carried by the recon class and acts as a spawn point for the squad. I just found out today.

[IIEMProductionsII]

Thanks for these man!!

[Matimi0]

@IIEMProductionsII No problem!

[The7guys]

I don't think the fact sheet was complete. Demise99 on twitter said that they would add in a bunch of things later on. Remember it's still in Alpha build

[Matimi0]

@The7guys yeah I don't think so either.

[sonicthehegehog1]

@Matimi0 yeah like if you watch the caspian border gameplay in the begining you see on the kill feed it says someone got killed by an M-16A3 and that gun isn't mentioned on the fact sheet.
