bf3 aftermath

The details regarding the latest forthcoming entry into the DLC lineup for EA’s Battlefield 3, “Aftermath,” have been released by the publisher today. While no release date has been offered just yet (though it stands to reason that we’ll get access before the holidays), we do know that players will get “urban warfare” with four new maps set in Tehran after an earthquake. In addition, there will be new military and civilian vehicles, a new game mode, and new assignments, achievements, and dog tags.

Here’s the official description of what you’ll have to look forward to:

“With operational capacity severely compromised the opposing forces must adapt and engage in vertical and horizontal urban combat amongst the dust and rubble with cracks and fissures in the terrain providing unexpected cover and paths to objectives. Additional support comes in the form of heavily modified troop transports and civilian vehicles specially adapted to deliver deadly force to the enemy.”

As you can see by the concept art above, things look pretty messy for the Battlefield bunch this time around. But will they be able to hold out long enough until Sgt. Bazooka Battlefield can be airlifted in from Battlefield HQ to help stop Cobra Commander?

I think I should also point out here that I didn’t get a lot of sleep last night.
