Battlefield 3 PS3 Footage

The Battlefield Blog has the overnight showing of Battlefield 3 on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. This is the console debut of the first-person shooter sequel, as they play the PlayStation 3 edition. That is actually the newest aspect of the clip, as the gameplay is set on the same level as previous footage from the game. DICE's Johan Andersson tweets a response to a comment about the visuals: "why would anyone expect that console would look the same as PC? if that was the case we would have failed with the PC version."

Sorry to bust your bubble but bullets can really do that, think you can hide behind a car door? no way bub

To think, all the movies I've seen over the years where the cops are using their cars as shelter when they're being fired upon. I always figured their inevitable defeat was because they were going up against robots from the future or some other wonder, but I guess Wildone has other ideas.

I'm guessing you don't have a job in law enforcement or anything of that nature. You might think you're onto something, but I wouldn't consider giving up your day job just yet if I were you.

I'm having trouble figuring out what your point actually is from this post... Are you trying to suggest he's wrong?

Of course they use their cars as shelter, what other option is there? Stand in the street and try to dodge? Some concealment/cover is better than none. That said, most know that if you're going to use a car as cover, you get behind the engine block. Anything else is just concealment and won't stop a round from hitting you unless you get lucky and it deflects away. Even just as concealment, in a situation where ammunition is limited, the 'bad guys' aren't going to fire very many rounds blindly into the car just hoping to hit someone, lest they end up out of ammo. In that way, concealment becomes nearly as effective.

If you're trying to suggest that he's wrong, then take a look at that "box o truth" site someone linked to. Here, more specifically:

http://www.theboxotruth.com/docs/bot4_2.htm

That's one 7.62mm round that went through 12 boards of sheetrock, 1 jug of water, an inch thick board of hardwood and STILL shattered the brick behind all of them. One round. Out of 20-30 you could fire fully automatic. They can very much chew holes through walls quite rapidly.
