I haven't been able to get my copy of Games for Windows (http://www.gamesforwindows.com/) magazine yet but the guys over at Planet Battlefield (http://planetbattlefield.gamespy.com/) have kindly posted up info they have gathered from the Battlefield Heroes (http://www.battlefield-heroes.com/) article. Check it out:
General Information:
• Community management team a lot larger than any other Battlefield game
• Game has "telemetry technology" that gives feedback on items people buy and how characters are setup
• Entire game is 3rd person so you can see the customizations your player has. Also allows you to see your player blown into the air. If 1st person is really wanted it can be changed over time.
• Assorted taunts and emotes
• Any abilities you have show at the bottom of the HUD
• No command rose like BF2
• Holding Q opens 6 panels each allows you to select a jeer, wisecrack, or suggestive body language. These can be bought with points just like abilities
• Players have a lot more health
• Weapons less lethal
• Spawn time shorter (5 seconds)
• Firefights last longer giving time to use unlockable abilities
• Vehicles spawn when you arrive at the point (no waiting)
• "Intelligent Spawn System" spawns players close to the action
• Both lone wolf and competitive clan play encouraged
• Cannot switch kits mid match
• Choose abilities before you start a game
• Idea to do a cartoon Battlefield dates back to Battlefield 1942, Lars Gustavsson envisioned something like BFH
