Battlefield 4: Chinese vehicles, shoot-while-swimming confirmed

4.5
Battlefield 4 developer DICE has answered some burning questions regarding Battlefield 4's vehicles and marine combat.

The studio has confirmed that the game will feature a whole new selection of Chinese vehicles thanks to the addition of that faction.

It revealed one new vehicle - the Chinese Z-10W Attack Heli - in a new screenshot pictured above. Some of the other Chinese vehicles in the game include:

Type 99 MBT
ZFB-05 Armored Car
Z-9 Haitun Transport Heli
DV15 Interceptor Attack Boat
The studio also discussed one of the game's biggest new gameplay mechanics - naval combat.

"Amphibious Assault will play a big role in Battlefield 4 as we've added attack boats like the RCB-90 (U.S.) and jet-skis. Controlling the sea in addition to the land and air will play a crucial role in victory," it explained.

DICE confirmed that, for the first time in the BF series, infantry will be able to use one-handed weapons and gadgets while swimming - useful in the case of a pre-explosion bail-out.

The PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 Battlefield 4 release date is set for October 29 in the US and November 1 in the UK . Next-gen versions will be out "this holiday" alongside the new consoles.

phlegm I am really excited for the jet skis. It seems like it will be almost as much fun as the jets in BF3. :D

Shooting while swimming will be great.
