Closed Beta beg Nov 14 for PS3, Open Beta to PC in Dec. Demo will include 1 map: “Arica Harbor”.
DICE had the following to say:
“Up to 24 players can compete in one of the game’s four intense multiplayer modes called Rush. This new map displays a superb balance of vehicle and infantry combat, as the American assault unit attacks the Russian army base with full force, advancing further through a beautiful desert town and towards the industrial area in a desperate attempt to overtake the Arica Harbor. Heavy vehicle warfare on the first bases gradually turns into an intense infantry fight as the level progresses, showcasing this best-in-class online war experience.”
I’m going to have a “wait and see” mindset on this, but I am hopeful. DICE maintains the stance that dedicated servers for MP games are key, compared to Modern Warfare 2 which is p2p, and then they actually host servers to support the community. The PC is in such DIRE NEED for an upgrade path to something beyond BF2/2142 and I hope this hits the mark.
