With the October 25 release date for Battlefield 3 quickly approaching, developer DICE put the game front and center at Gamescom 2011. EA’s large, multi-booth set-up featured a full-sized fighter jet with a Battlefield 3 backdrop for gamers to get photos in front of (complete with flight suits). But the lines were much longer across the floor, where DICE unveiled its 64-player Conquest mode for PC gamers to jump into. Conquest was one of two playable demos on the show floor. DICE also showcased a level from its two-player co-op campaign mode.

Conquest mode

EA had 64 PCs hooked up for players to engage in the Conquest map set on the Caspian border. While the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the game will offer 24-player support, the PC game will deliver massive combat across huge maps. The playable demo at the show featured a U.S. versus Russia scenario set in the Middle East.

Co-op mode

While there’s some overlap with characters and environments, Battlefield 3’s co-op mode is separate from the single-player campaign. Playable at Gamescom was the Exfiltration level, which is set in Tehran. The objective is to sneak into an apartment to rescue an important hostage from enemy hands. In sharp contrast to the all-out action warfare of the Conquest mode, this level was all about stealth infiltration.
