Paint jobs are more about just making players look cool, as a vehicle with a camouflage skin will automatically change to match the environment at the start of each level, like a chameleon. Obviously tanks and helicopters are going to be a little harder to miss, but undermining the opponent’s ability to tell an aircraft apart from the sky behind it could be what makes the difference between getting blown up and survival.
This summer we saw a trailer for the revamped Battlelog, which will introduce the ability to manage your game across multiple screens and continue tracking progress and competition even while out and about. Today, Assistant Producer Jesper Nielsen has now outlined the changes and new features of the Battlelog in a handy guide. The guide covers such topics as in-game integration of the Battlelog and Geo Leaderboards that make it possible to see how players rank compared not only to other players worldwide, but also within their local area.
It certainly looks like there are enough new features available to convince Battlefield 3 players to splash out on the next game in the series, but tell us if you like the direction that DICE is taking – and if it all feels fresh enough – in the comments.
Battlefield 4 releases October 29, 2013 for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360; November 12th for the PS4; and November 19th for the Xbox One.
