"According to Bach, dragging bodies will not be a feature in the multiplayer component."

Meh...
What would be the point?  You can just use the zappy-paddles.

It's fun? What's the whole point of playing BF3. New features are always cool and make game unique.

I think it's one of those things that sound good, and works good in theory, but like so many other things in BF, ends up being silly or downright creepy in a multiplayer round.. I can imagine players dragging bodies around the whole battlefield, spelling their names with dead comrades forming the letters or symbols. Or that one strange player with disarranged Fibonacci numbers in his nick that collects bodies in a pile and then sits on top of it, shouting out "DERP DERP" and shoots anyone who tries to revive someone in his pile.

LOL!

Let's just still hope that it will be modable...  ;D

The vid looks really cool. I just imagined to fight under the Streets of Stalingrad in a nice FH3... *oh yeah*  :P
Oh I should stop dreaming, but well, let's pray everynight.  :D

Looks like Bad Company. I thought this is supposed to be a multiplayer shooter.

I usually imagine my own sounds with it, like `tjunk, tupdieyupdiedee` aaa enemy spotted, ratatatataboom

So yeah, it is confirmed that BF3 is going to have semi, burst, and auto fire modes for the guns for which it applies (all three for M16), and if you watch that vid you'll notice that there are different reload animations for inserting completely emptied vs partially emptied magazines like there should be. Oh and after he reloads after a partial mag, notice that there are 31 rounds total available.

I'm not saying that these things are ground breaking features or are back-of-the-box bullet points, but it's nice to see that they're not cutting corners like with the Bad Company games when it comes to weapon mechanics.

No, you are not the only one.
It would have taken one of Rawhide's "Babe Thread" babes to stop by Flippy's house to give him a BJ while he watched that trailer in order to impress him.

They're illegal due to fire hazards, not due to wounds such as dum dum bullets.
In other words, they're legal in military context. But they don't want a bunch of hippies going off into the woods shooting tracers during the California summer season.
