    Literally just confirmed:

    Debris from buildings has the potential to injure or even kill players.

    Watching the live stream from the booth right now.

    The director of DICE just confirmed 4 classes, and the ability to be what he described as a/n 'Assault Medic', where you are an in-your-face kind of class, but with some kind of limited healing ability, not the ability to revive.

    This is due to the medic system from BFBC2 'not working too well'. His words.

    minus the few minutes shown of people playing multiplayer

    I'm hoping they're just building up to a big reveal at the end of the day.

    its funny people asking questions on ustream when they have to go to twitter lol. When they go to show mulitplayer they should make sure that they know how to play and not try to go off the edge of the map or oppisite of the objective.

    they have assault, engineer, support, and recon. the assault hands out med packs, and the support hands out ammo, sorta switched roles with them classes.

    Yeah...it's funny because most of the people they show playing kind of...well...suck

    Oh some cool facts I just learned. Apparently you will now be able to 'suppress' people with firepower,and you will earn bonuses for this as well as giving the enemy a distortion effect on their screen while they are being suppressed. Also flashlights can be used to temporarily blind enemies in a way at very short range, not like a flash bang, but sort of like a temporary burst of light that will block some of your screen.

    Like I've been saying about BC2, you should get points for smoking an M-Comm if someone arms it within seconds afterwards... or pilots should get a 'transport bonus' if they drop someone off who arms an M-Comm within seconds... That sort of thing; it wouldn't be hard for the computer to figure out - I mean it already gives you 'objective bonuses' when you kill someone near an M-Comm...

    Well im in the UK but I guess im not one of the lucky ones... i've had my copy on order for a couple of months now, but not from one of the stores offering the Physical Warfare pack Sad

    Still I know the manager at the store where I do have my preorder so if any of the special releases becomes avaliable from that store for the preorder then I can switch my preorder free of charge...
