DICE currently shooting motion-capture sequences for Battlefield 3 in Uppsala, Sweden
DICE is shooting some motion-capture sequences for Battlefield 3 in Uppsala, Sweden between now and May 27, according to a casting call notice dug up by Reddit.
According to the listing posted by a Greek actor’s group on Facebook, the motion capture sequences are being produced by Lo Wallmo, and directed by Tom Keegan who is also the casting director for the motion capture filming.
The listing stated it was looking for “male actors with strong acting ability and credits in Film, TV and Theatre,” for the roles of American Marines 20-35, Russian Special Agents 25-40, and Persian/Farsi Speakers 35-60.
Actors who speak English, Russian, Farsi, and Arabic were preferable, and auditions were held in London on April 11, 12, and 13.
While this is not earth-shattering news, it is interesting, especially to those interested in a game’s developmental process.
Battlefield 3 is scheduled for a fall release on PC, PS3, and Xbox 360.
Thanks, Klaxusprime.

Sounds good, from what I’ve seen so far the presentation of this game looks fantastic.

You serious? please tell me you are kidding.
MW3? AKA…same old shit over again? The first screenshots show the same old engine, WHY should you even get excited for a new COD game? A game that has turned into a yearly game….BF3 actually looks incredible and we all know how much better in every regard Battlefield 3 will be.
The COD games have become a bad joke.

are you serious ..
buying the same game just with more guns and stuff.
this is not a new game at all . it’s just correcting their mistakes from the last game that failed to face Battlefield: Bad Company 2
The company had 8 months to develope a game that could beat Bad Company 2.
and when black ops came out , we all knew the game can’t even be compare with Battlefield.
Bad Company 2 managed to face 2 games and still winning.
i even think MW3 will not even reach the glory just like Battlefield.
So that’s why we care about BF3, Since they listen to us..
Unlike your cheap game.
BF3 > Cod 1 , 2 ,3 ,4 , WaW , Mw2 , Black ops , MW3

Bad Company 2 did more harm than good to the BF series. The fact DICE keep going on about its flaws says enough. I havent touched CoD and probably never will as they always appear to be shoddy ports on the PC, much like BC2 felt like.
Unlike EA stop the PR bullshit machine about the campaigns and actually show some multiplayer stuff, I wont be pre-ordering this. BF3 and frostshite needs to be something special and then, will it win the day.
