A new trailer is in for the Battlefield 3 DLC dubbed "Aftermath", and quite unexpectedly, features a crossbow. You may notice some jury rigging going on there at the end -- according to community manager Ian "crash7800" Tornay, it's all apart of the survival theme -- this is a post-earthquake environment, after all. According to previews, the crossbow will be an all-class weapon that replaces the secondary weapon (e.g. C4, grenade launcher, etc), and will feature four types of bolts, including explosive, sniper, detection, and one other currently unknown (perhaps tripwire). The other big news is the Scavenger mode, in which you're equipped with a knife, nade, and pistol, and must search the environment along with others for better, randomly placed weapons -- so kind of like Gunmaster, but more tense. Sounds unique and fun, if I daresay so.

	The new game mode sounds awesome. New vehicles, always nice. New crossbow, would have liked more new weapons...but crossbow is definitely a pleasant surprise. Excitement level: 8.5 Could rise to 9.5 if the maps are awesome, which if 'urban warfare' is anything to go by, they will be! -------------------

	quote unclebobert87 Is it me, or does the trailer suggest a new offline campaign? No. It' just using the multiplayer character models (sans helmets) and stylizing the gameplay. I am disappoint in a crossbow, though. There are plenty of weapons in Battlefield already. I think adding it is kind of gimmicky. ------------------- I'm the guy that consistently goes negative. You don't need to remind me.

	Im not so bothered about the addition of a crossbow, but it does seem to have been added at the expense of any other weapons. THAT does annoy me. I like the decontructed post disaster look of it all though.

	Crossbows? Sigh...... Talk about gimmicky.....I'd much rather prefer a proper weapon instead of a daft novelty.

	New game mode sounds awesome. Wonder what the size of the maps will be, hope there not too small.

	quote ReganBRFC New game mode sounds awesome. Wonder what the size of the maps will be, hope there not too small. Yeah same. But i also hope they are not too big. I have stopped playing Armored Kill because the maps are about twice as big as they should be for us console guys with limited players. I'd like to see maps on the same scale as Operation Firestorm or Caspain Border. No larger.

	Given that they're urban maps, I'd say no smaller than Grand Bazaar and not much bigger than Strike at Karkand would be decent sized. -------------------

	Loving the look of the Marketplace. It has a real CS feel to it which couple with BF3 action will be a deadly combination! ------------------- Yin ♥
