I guess it was inevitable that BF3 would be on the horizon but I’ve been satisfied with Bad Company 2 and haven’t been checking weekly for an announcement for a new one!   No details on the era but my guess is that it will be much like BF2 with a new version of the Frostbite Engine and Destruction (BC2 runs on 1.5 and 2.0, respectively).  Maybe we can get a new release of Strike at Karkand as a released map!   Speaking of which, where’s Wake in BC2?

Get Access to the Battlefield 3 Beta

Want to be among the first to get hands-on with Battlefield 3? If you own Medal of Honor Limited Edition you will receive an invitation to the Battlefield 3 beta within 12-months following the release of Medal of Honor.

Medal of Honor Limited Edition features other special content out-of-the-box including the MP-7, a weapon utilized by real-world Tier 1 Operators in the field.  With its light weight, high rate of fire as well as its ability to penetrate body armor, the MP-7 handles like a pistol yet allows targets to be engaged like a rifle.
