Aftermath Trailer and Details Revealed

DICE is mixing it up again on November 27 for PS3 Premium, December 4 for PC/Xbox Premium, December 18 for all.

New crossbow! This thing sounds sweet. 4 different arrow tips to choose from. One is a medium range, medium damage. One fires a TUGS-like item that displays enemy locations. One has a high explosive element to it, good for damaging vehicles, and one has a long range. Iron sight or 8x scope. The article also says you can bring it back to the other vanilla/DLC maps, and it becomes a new option for the 3rd "equipment" slot on all four classes.

Scavenger game mode. Non-class game mode where players are left with very limited ammo and perhaps a pistol, while searching the map for other weapons to arm yourself with. Done all in the style of a Conquest Domination mode with flags that can be capped but not spawned on.

Aftershocks during gameplay cause falling rubble. Parts of the game environment can be destroyed to create new flanking routes on the map. This stuff sounds pretty nice. 3 new vehicles too (well, one modified HMMWV and one modified Vodnik with multiple gunner seats, to go with a new civilian van). What are your thoughts?

Nice find mikey. The crossbow certainly sounds like a viable option in any class because of its implemented versatility.
