specs won't be set until the content is in the game. DX10 will be supported, as will DX9

out of interest:
 Text reads: Our Spies tell us we'll soon see the announcement of Battlefield 3. This is great for fans of online shooting, long distance sniping, helicopter strafing and comedy tank antics. EA are tight-lipped for now, but here's what to expect. Modern Combat The biggest question: when and where will it be set? We hear it's going to be modern-day, in a fictional war between NATO and the Middle Eastern coalition [MEC]. Consider the last game - a future of floating artillery and anti-grav platforms - a diversion. Most of the eight maps will focus on urban sites. We'd love to see a return of Strike at Karkand - a frenzied battle across an empty city. More Online Since Battlefield 2, the team at DICE have picked up influence from MMO game. Persistent stat tracking and new weapons for experienced players will be present, but we're hoping for more. Expect to customize your soldier's appearance, armour, and weaponry beyond unlocks. Choosing a face, voice, tattoos, and badges would be an obvious start. Heavy Tech In console land, they're already being treated to a new Battlefield game, Subtitled Bad Company, it's debut of the next-gen "Frostbite" engine. Aside from producing staggering draw distance that lets you pick off targets miles away, it's imbued with some serious deformation technology. Buildings can be blown apart, bridges burst and craters carved. Battlefield 3 will evolve that technology further. Class Act Why mess with a near perfect set of abilities? Battlefield 3 won't alter the standard Sniper, Assault, Medic, Engineer, and Support class balance. Want a quick rev? Call for a Medic. Need a tank busted? Grab the Assault trooper and pray he's packed an RPG launcher. Guns, And More Guns Every soldier needs a weapon, and Battlefield 3 will be chock full of firearms, 34 in fact, split evenly between the MEC and NATO. You'll have to work for the privilege of sporting the most powerful rifles. As well as weapons, you'll unlock armour, ammo, helmets and accessories. Play Together The best feature of Battlefield 2. Sharing objectives and voice chat with friends as five-man squads. That's being extended, with squads able to join up to form a battalion - the perfect partner for improved clan support and ranked servers. Commanders can still order grunts to the front and supply them with ammo drops, radar pings, UAV reconnaissance and the occasional artillery strike. -------------------- |

As for what the clan does, we'll do things by votes as usual - but will of course see how good the game is when its out.
From a personal standpoint, I don't believe multi-game clans works as well as more focussed groups sharing a common interest. I've seen many 'multi-game' clans where they'll have members playing FPS shooters like bf2 and some playing WoW who will never even speak to each other. By the time BF3 comes out, the bf2 community will be even smaller, more damaged by hacks and the tech will be old. I think it's more likely we'd move to bf3 providing it is a good game. Technically we could have moved to COD4, but its a big fat steaming pile of poop. At least one thing I can tell you - bf3 will have a hell of a lot better anti-cheat checks, although will still be using PB. (@ea if you're reading this: much better if you'd pay for some of the AC tech than try and scav them for free. Shame on you!) /bitch -------------------- |

It's 10:15am on 16/05/08 and there is some stirrings around EA of an official battlefield annoucement.
Will repost whether this is going to happen (or yet again be postponed)
